Same old blame game

After the US recalled its ambassador to Syria to protest the assassination of Rafik Hariri, it didn’t take long for the Syrians to try shifting the blame to… where else?

Syrian Vice President Abdel-Halim Khaddam pointed the finger of blame at Israel….

Asked about Syria’s alleged role in Hariri’s death, Khaddam said, “The Israelis have assassinated an entire people [the Palestinians] and an entire region. So we should expect the worst from them.”

Syrian media echoed the charges.
