Syrian TV to Broadcast Confessions of Alleged Israeli Spy Linked to Mughniyeh Murder
2011-09-16
[An Nahar] The Syrian State television will broadcast on Saturday the confessions of an alleged Israeli spy who conspired to assassinate top Hizbullah commander Imad Mughniyeh, State news agency SANA reported.

"The Israeli spy will reveal some of the details of the conspiracy against Syria," SANA said on Wednesday.
*blink*. The assassination of a top commander of Hizb'allah, sock puppet of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, is a threat to Syria how, exactly, given there are plenty of replacements eager to wear the target?
According to the report that will be broadcasted after the 8:30 PM newscast, the Israeli spy had "facilitated the liquidation of Mughniyeh."

Mughniyeh, linked to the kidnappings of western hostages in the 1980s, was killed on March 2008 by a car boom in Damascus

"Spies are working to sow sedition, assassinate resistance figures and cause chaos," the news agency said.

The report added that the state television

will also broadcast on Thursday the confessions of an officer who was the first to defect the Syrian army.

In a June video widely distributed on the Internet and broadcast on Arab satellite channels, Hussein Harmouche, a lieutenant colonel, said he was deserting the army because he refused to fire on unarmed civilians.

Media reports had said that Harmouche was able to escape from the country and reportedly heads the so-called "Brigade of Free Officers" comprising several reported defectors from army ranks.
