A Politcial Analysis Of Rafiq Harriri’s Assassins

To begin with, it is imperative to present this paper with a precise history on problems that have inflamed the Middle East and occupied world attention for more than fifty years. Of course, the two major players engaged in all troubles and killings are United States and Israel. United States of America has financed the Israeli slaughter house of Palestinian population for decades; yet it claims without shame Israel is a democratic and just state. United States also claims it is governed by the most democratic system on earth and it enjoys the best freedom. It is hard for me and others to believe what has become of American citizens. They actually believe lies more than they believe hard core truth. I need some one to explain this hysteria to me. What would happen to a country if it were inhabited with pimps and prostitutes? The answer is rather simple. Such a country would search for clients in other countries. I need not go further. United States relation with Arab and Muslim countries says it all.

A majority of the Arab world, including the world community have done nothing to stop United States and Israel. On the contrary, they have become an audience with an obligation to watch from a distance, the serialized war as it devours lives and properties with each episode. It appears this audience is anxiously waiting for the ending to this historic atrocious film. With much sadness and sorrow, this film was not meant to end before our planet is fully soaked with Arab and Muslim blood.

The evidence is clear. United States has invaded and fought a score of unjustified wars for the wrong reason. Israel was established on stolen land. It is very painful to see so much injustice for so many years right before our eyes. It is even more painful that we know the game plan clearly, yet we do nothing to stop it. United States and Israel still use the same old line: On one hand, they present themselves lovers of justice and freedom; on the other hand they kill and destroy in a manner and fashion never witnessed by humanity before. This is a targeted war. The brutal players have two goals: Control world resources and execute successful Arab and Muslim leaders, scientists and scholars. I am certain, Harriri’s assassins have plotted for many months if not many years. Harriri was not assassinated by personal enemies. He was eliminated by enemies of Arabs and Muslims.

United States today has successfully recruited the Saudi government to arrest scholars and anyone who whispers liberation for Arabia from the hands of invaders. In fact the entire Gulf Region has become a puppet block fully controlled by United States and Israel. Egypt is boxed and showered with U.S. Congress green bills. Iran is far too busy feeding George W. Bush with valuable information so he can continue his war on Iraq and Afghanistan. Iran today is injecting Arab countries with the same dose it was injected with during the Iran/Iraq war; the war that was designed by United States and blessed by Arab leaders. The only Muslim country that could have breached the security code of Mr. Harriri is Iran, not Syria or the Lebanese government. Syria and the Lebanese government are not on the best of terms with United States. Iran, on the other hand, appears at great odds with American foreign policies, but realistically both countries play the same poker hand and alternate wins.

Everything Iraq achieved in the last fifty years was destroyed within the early days of the U.S. invasion to ensure this country does not recover any time soon. 200 or more years are required for Iraq to return to where it was. Of course, this kind of destruction suites the needs of the Israelis, the Americans, and above all the Iranians. This is a fact. Saddam Hussein was manipulated and molded into the vicious dictator he was to ease and facilitate the invasion and to confuse the world community.

Rafiq Harriri turned out to be the opposite character to Saddam Hussein. Mr. Harriri adored his religion and heritage more so than he loved success and life. He was a true and genuine human. Harriri was the biggest obstacle for Israeli and American invaders. How can we explain the U.S./Israeli peculiar affection to Mr. Harriri after his assassination? How can we explain the use of depleted uranium in the explosive
material used? How can we explain the high leveled method applied on February 14, 2004 that rocked not only Lebanon and the Arab countries, but rocked the entire world?

There is one and only one logical explanation announced by the Russian. The explosion that killed Mr. Harriri is the work of countries with the highest military advancement. It is the work of existing occupiers. Within minutes United States and Israel pointed the finger at Syria and appointed themselves judge and jury? This by itself implicates the accusers point blank.

The opposition leaders in Lebanon also supported the U.S. and the Israeli verdict as they had no choice in the manner but to do so; they are so politically stupid, they behave like mules. In fact, mules might be more sensitive than them. Lebanon is not under the Syrian occupation. The small Syrian military contingent in Lebanon does not represent any harm or danger to Lebanon or to Lebanese people and is stationed in the country by a mandate from the legally elected Lebanese government. However, I am inclined to question the intelligent of both the Syrian and Lebanese governments for playing into the hands of the Israeli and American Neocons and Zionists. Yes, Syria could have removed its small number of troops from Lebanon years ago before the Israeli and the U.S. decided to use this issue as a pretext for another invasion. But, again, Arab and Muslim leaders fall victims to Israeli and American schemes almost every day. If the Syrian small military contingent is removed from Lebanon today or tomorrow the Americans and the Israelis will look for another fake reason to interfere in the affairs of this small and beautiful country and return the hells of wars to it that lasted 17 years.

Harriri reconstructed Lebanon and brought it back far better than it was before the Israeli invasion. Harriri’s talent and determination is what really angered and agitated the Israelis and the Americans. The true strength of a leader appears after his defeat or assassination. Harriri brought this element of human strength to Arabs, Muslims and to the World. Yes, this man’s assassination was a major loss to Arabs and Muslim. Yes, this assassination was the biggest victory to his killers. But history will not just stop here. History will speak about a person who brought hope to the depressed and oppressed. History will renew its call for justice for all humans as a result of Harriri’s assassination. Other great leaders gave their lives and worth for the sake of justice and freedom. Harriri gave more. He gave the weak and the poor an elevated place on this earth. Harriri’s assassination was a wake up call for the free world. Once again, the U.S./Israeli plot has succeeded and failed miserably at the same time. It succeeded by eliminating one of the most genuine persons to have lived since the birth of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH). The plot failed miserably because it paved the way for hundreds of Harriris to emerge in Arabia. Yes, not all Arabs and Muslims are traitors. Yes, Arabia will father many Harriris. I am confident; the assassination of Mr. Harriri has already changed the dynamics of Arabs and Muslims.

What was Rafiq Harriri about? Mr. Harriri was raised in a simple home by a simple and respected family. He reached a reasonable education, good enough that got him a job in Saudi Arabia where he proved his performance and honesty. Within less than a decade, he became one of top 100 wealthy Saudis. Several years later, he became one of the world wealthiest people. Mr. Harriri had a vision for the entire Arab and Muslim Umma.. He placed over 50,000 Muslim students in various universities in different countries. He built schools and mosques. He built an entire non profitable industry to cater to the less fortunate and needy Lebanese and other Arabs. I do not want to predict in haste. Arabs and Muslim have lost a great man; at the same time they have regained the dignity they lost centuries ago. His spirit and only his spirit will deliver the real truth behind his assassins.

Mr. Harriri’s business empire includes banking, media news, (TV and News Papers), publishing, and a score of other successful industries. Mr. Harriri was the father-Builder of the new Lebanon after it was literarily destroyed by Israeli fire power. The entire world community, leaders, scholars and thinkers became fond of this one single man with one single voice. He did not belong to any secular or religious groups. Naturally he was very proud of his religion; but he knew practicing Islam and ignoring improvement of Muslims’ well being was wrong. He wanted to bring Arabs and Muslim in line with other advanced countries without sacrificing Arab and Muslim values. He wanted the West to benefit from Arab and Muslim contribution as has been the case for more than a dozen centuries. Mr. Harriri was able to rebuild Lebanon within a short time. A task, I believe no other leader in the world is capable of achieving. Mr. Harrir could not have done all these great things because he aligned himself with Israel and United States. United States and Israel would eliminate another Harriri any time before it would worry about any Arab country possessing nuclear capability.
