Pelosi's Assad Meeting Pays Off
Well not really. Today Assad again vowed not to cooperate in the investigation into the death of Rafiq al-Hariri.
Via The Guardian: Syria will not cooperate with a UN tribunal set up to try suspects in the assassination of the former Lebanese prime minister Rafiq al-Hariri, a defiant President Bashar al-Assad pledged in Damascus today.Way to go Nancy, your engagment of Mr. Assad is yielding all the results we said it would.Mr Assad's message came as pressure mounted for movement in the case, which triggered mass protests and the withdrawal of Syrian forces from Lebanon. A UN investigation has implicated Lebanese and Syrian security officials in the 2005 killing in Beirut. Mr Assad denies involvement but has said that any Syrian found to be involved will be tried by a Syrian court.
