Ghazi Aridi lacks courage on Syria & Hezballah, says Daily Star's Young

Moreover, Michael Young is not too happy with "some" in the Siniora government blaming Al Qaeda for the UNIFIL deadly attack. Young likes consistency. He seeks continuity: Blame Syria first, and see what happens!

Information Minister Ghazi Aridi noted that "[t]here is a link between the attack which targeted the Spanish contingent of UNIFIL and the fighting between the Lebanese Army and the terrorists of Fatah al-Islam in Nahr al-Bared." He went on to say, "Lebanon is the victim of a terrorist wave striking from the North to the South in which the latest target was the Spanish contingent. This attack was preceded by confessions from arrested terrorists about preparations against UNIFIL."
