Lebanese Christian Leader Killed

November 21, 2006 | By Sniper One |

As usual, it’s two steps forward, three steps back in the middle-east. That is, if you can really call anything that happens in the middle-east a step forward.

(BBC) Lebanese Industry Minister Pierre Gemayel, a Maronite Christian leader, has been killed in the capital, Beirut.

Mr Gemayel, a leading anti-Syrian politician, was reportedly shot in the street in a Christian suburb and rushed to hospital, where he died.

The timing is interesting, in that Hezbollah is about to take to the streets of Lebanon to try and topple the government.

It will more than likely widely be blamed on Syria. It is well known that Iran, via it’s puppet state Syria, pulls the strings on Hezbollah.

It is possible, however unlikely, that this is a random event that just happened to kill a Christian/anti-Syrian cabinet member.
