Suicide, My Ass!

Syria's Interior minister supposedly committed suicide.

"Interior Minister Brig. Gen. Ghazi Kenaan committed suicide in his office before noon," the Syrian Arab News Agency reported. "Authorities are carrying out the necessary investigation into the incident."

You don't suppose it had anything to do with the fact that he had been directly linked to the assassination by bombing of Lebanon's former Prime Minister, Rafik Hariri. Hariri was organizing opposition to the decades-old Syrian occupation of Lebanon at the time of his death.

It seems highly unlikely that Kenaan did that without direction from above. What better way to protect Syrian dictator Bashir Assad than for his minion to conveniently commit suicide?
