Investigation in US leads to arrest in Lebanon assination

Counterterrorism Blog translate a Lebanese story on the arrest in the recent assassination of Pierre Gemayel. The US "... investigated Halim Hardan, student at the University of St. Louis, son of current MP Assaad Hardan, former minister and leading member of the Syrian Nationalist Party and the Canadian authorities as well, carried out investigation with one Khudor Awarka, the official Syrian National Party in Canada...."

As expected there appears to be a strong Syrian tie. The Lebanese apparently using this information raided some suspects and found weapons and explosives.

The translation of the article is a little disjointed, but it is worth looking at.

Update: Gateway Pundit has more on the case and Hardan's opposition to the liberation of Iraq.
