Syrian TV to Broadcast Confessions of Alleged Israeli Spy Linked to Mughniyeh Murder

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.

According to the report that will be broadcasted after the 8:30 PM newscast, the Israeli spy had “facilitated the assassination of Mughniyeh.”

Mughniyeh, linked to the kidnappings of western hostages in the 1980s, was killed on February 2008 by a car bomb 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.

U.N. human rights Chief Navi Pillay had said that at least 2,600 people had been killed in the unrest in Syria since popular protests first broke out in mid-March, raising the toll from 2,200 in August.

However, President Bashar Assad's media adviser Bouthaina Shaaban said that 1,400 people, including 700 army and security officials, have been killed in the violence in Syria.

What a coincidence that the two main coordinators of Hariri's murder are relative to Mughniyeh. More interesting is that the latter was assassinated in Syria, probably by the same people who killed ghazi kanaan and his brother, former head of Syrian intelligence!.
Things are very clear now, especially after the Antelias affair. We have inside the country a criminal militia helping its sect to steal electricity, lands, cars from christians, and preventing the State to control its own territory! All this under the umbrella of a fake resistance created to protect their acts.

TO: PONG LENIS
My comment is not on the article itself, but on your nickname which is a cheap twist of what you really must look like: a tall, thin, ugly shaft without the slightest imagination. Suggest you look for a different nickname soonest.

No need for the Syrian regime to hold interviews with this so called spy.... They should just interview Bashar Assad who is for sure the number one Israeli agent. No one has served Israeli and American interests in the region more than this butcher.
