#3 There was a time when it would be accurate to immediately point at the Mossad, but nowadays I don’t know. As fractured and factioned, it could as likely he was taken out by a rival group with Islam
All of these groups are at each other’s throats fighting for various agendas in Syria

#9 The car was found on a lonely stretch of road between Qaqiyat al-Jisr and Zutar al-Gharbiya in Nabatiyeh district. There's a pic of a dead guy lying on the road next to a white vehicle, in jeans.

They believe it could be wholly unrelated to Hezbollah work. Of course, that's Lebanese intelligence for you.

#11 Not too mention Mossad seems to take the hands off approach. Oh look, his cellphone exploded while he was talking off it. Shouldn't hide his C4 kaboomite in there.
