“’Most wanted’ Hizbullah operative killed in Damascus bombing”
By ASSOCIATED PRESS

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Hizbullah television has reported that Imad Mughniyeh, a senior official in the organization who is listed on America’s most wanted list, is dead.

Mughniyeh was killed in a car bombing in Damascus late Tuesday night.

The cause of the explosion, which occurred about 10:45 p.m. in the upscale Kafar Soussa neighborhood, was not immediately known. Security forces quickly sealed off the area and removed the destroyed car, which had its driver’s seat and the rear seat blown away by the force of the blast.

Calls for comment from Syria’s Interior Ministry, which is responsible for security forces, went unanswered late Tuesday night.

There are no government buildings located in the mostly residential neighborhood. An Iranian school is about a few hundred meters from the blast, but the school was unscathed.”

“Mughniyeh was killed in a car bombing in Damascus late Tuesday night.”

If he was in the car, that makes him Abu Bin Akar in my book.

I would love to get a glimpse of Imad’s face after the decades of plastic surgery rumors.

Lemme see...first there was that “Ooopsie” with the chem warhead being mounted on a SCUD. Then there was that Sept. attack on that nuke(?) facility. Now this... there may not be anyone left in the Ministry to answer the phone!
