Israel: Hezbollah, Syria, Iran Likely Involved in Hariri’s Murder


09/11/2010

As the countdown has started before the “politicized” final indictment in the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafiq Hariri be released, Israeli media is insisting to “uncover” the “secret” details of the indictment.

On Tuesday, Israeli daily Yedihot Ahronot reported that the indictment would include Hezbollah as well as a number of Syrian and Iranian officials.

The Israeli daily quoted experts inside and outside the occupied territories who are following up on the Hariri murder case as saying that Syrian President Bashar Assad's son-in-law Assef Shawkat is reportedly involved in Hariri’s 2005 assassination and that he would likely to be summoned for trial by the Special Tribunal for Lebanon.
Yedihot Ahronot said Brigadier General Qassem Soleimani, the commander of the Quds Force of Iran's Revolutionary Guard, is also likely involved in the Hariri crime.

The daily said that STL Prosecutor Daniel Bellemare refused an urgent request to postpone issuance of the report's conclusions about for fear that Hezbollah would rein in power, adding that the STL report will be issued in December as planned.

According to the experts quoted by the Israeli daily, the data on the involvement of Shawkat and other senior officials in the Syrian military intelligence in the Hariri assassination has led US President Barack Obama to change his position on Syria.
