إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

The Prosecution of the U.N.-backed Special Tribunal for Lebanon continued on Friday to present its closing arguments in the case of ‘Ayyash et al. case’ before the court in The Hague.

The STL said that Joseph Aoun, Lilianne Khallouf, Sahar Kalaoui, Wissam Naji and Sanaa El Sheikh – participating victims in the proceedings in the ‘Ayyash et al. case’ were attending the closing arguments in the courtroom.

In its final brief, the Prosecution stated that Ayyash participated directly and intentionally in the execution of the terrorist attack, the intentional homicide, and the attempted intentional homicide of ex-PM Rafik Hariri.

The Prosecution also stated that each Accused conspired to commit a terrorist act through the assassination of Hariri by means of a large explosive device in a public place.

On Thursday, the arguments focused on the claim that the Accused Salim Ayyash had postponed his Hajj pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia to prepare for the 2005 attack and on the issue of the Palestinian young man Ahmed Abu Adas, who was allegedly abducted by two Hizbullah suspects from Beirut's Tariq al-Jedideh area to appear in the video of the false claim of responsibility.

southern but the shia General Security arrests people for having a photograph of the Syrian revolution flag on their phones and you cheer for that action?

Am I sensing you are biased?

If I had but one bullet and were faced by both an enemy and a traitor like 'patriotic', I would let the 'patriotic' traitor have it.

Salim Ayyash did not murder Rafic Hariri just as Habib Shartouni did not murder Bachir Gemayel. Also the moon is made of blue cheese.

"...STL the political tribunal which was set to provoke civil strife."
No goofball. You're thinking of Bashar Assad and his allies who tried to provoke civil strife when they blew up the two mosques in Tripoli, sent Michel Samaha with explosives and who's strategically named "Free Sunni Brigade of Baalbek" threatened to murder Christians and Shiites.

That's right Patty. Like your alter ego Mystic said it's all about the phone calls. I have it on good religious Iranian authority that it was Rafic Hariri and his motorcade that was following Ayyash and his crew around. Not the other way around. In fact Ayyash and crew were only shooting a commercial for Verizon, you might have seen it.. yep, you got it.. Ayyash was going to become the new "Can you hear me now" guy and Hariri Sr didn't like it. So he inconspicuously followed Ayyash around with a motorcade consisting of a limo and about five or six big black SUVs.
