It is very odd that Mughniyeh was killed Tuesday evening this week, and it was announced the following day. When something of this magnitude happens, it is announced as a "maybe", but not confirmed until DNA, and heaven only knows what else has been checked....confirmed weeks later as a rule. How did anyone know FOR SURE it was him by the next day? The American's couldn't have done it. None of them move that fast to guarantee it was him.

January 30, French security services raided a Paris apartment and arrested six Arab men. .... the six were members of a Hizbullah cell. Documents seized included tourist maps of Paris, London, Madrid, Berlin and Rome marked up with red highlighter to indicate routes, addresses, parking lots and "truck stopping points." The maps pointed to several routes to Vatican back entrances. Seems that Europeans had very good reason to kill Mughniyeh. The attack could be a signal to Iranians and all sorts of jihadis that Europe is not ready to turn over and die. French Defense Minister Herve Morin ..... criticized US National Intelligence Estimate on Iran's nuclear program from November. Morin said, "Coordinated information from a number of intelligence services leads us to believe that Iran has not given up its wish to pursue its [nuclear] program," and is "continuing to develop" it. Clearly, the US Administration and Congress are the only people who are buying that fairy tale estimate.... which was obvious politically motivated BS.
