  I believe he is dead and Mossad killed him .. Hezbollah cannot claim he is dead and hide him … intelligence are everywhere … the man is gone.

  As for picking the date, well they probably did it to take the exclusivness of that date from Hariri, which is a smart political move.

  the timing is most probably to have two demonstrations in the contry and to higher the probability of confrontation

  Death of a terrorist

  Feb 14th 2008 | CAIRO
  From The Economist print edition

  Hizbullah’s Imad Mughniya is killed, most probably

  AFP

  TO MOST of the world he was a vicious killer. To devotees of Hizbullah, Lebanon’s Shia party-cum-militia, to their Iranian backers, and especially to those who came of age in the 1980s, during what they saw as wars of survival in Lebanon and Iran, he was a hero. Whatever the view of Imad Mughniya, the manner of his death, by a car bomb in Damascus on Wednesday February 12th, was characteristic of the man.

  Born to a poor family in south Lebanon in 1962, Mr Mughniya had, over a 25-year career, gained a reputation as both the most effective and elusive of international terrorists. As a street-hardened leader in radical Shia groups that eventually, under Iranian guidance, formed Hizbullah during Lebanon’s civil war of 1975-90, he may be credited with introducing suicide bombing to the Middle East. It was used to deadly effect against the Iraqi, French and American embassies in Beirut, most notably with a lorry bomb that killed some 241 American Marines in 1983. Later Mr Mughniya was held responsible for the capture of dozens of Western hostages, who were traded in exchange for arms for his Iranian and Palestinian allies.

  He went into hiding after his indictment for the murder in 1985 of an American serviceman during the hijack of a TWA airliner. Yet he was believed to have kept his post as a senior tactician for Hizbullah, acting as a liaison with Iran’s Revolutionary Guards. He was also said to have helped bring in novel guerrilla techniques, such as the use of armour-piercing shaped charges in roadside bombs that harried Israeli forces in Lebanon until they withdrew in 2000 and were later used against American troops in Iraq.

  The Israelis have linked him to bomb attacks against their embassy and a Jewish cultural centre in Buenos Aires in the 1990s, purportedly in revenge for Israel’s killing of Hizbullah’s then chief, Abbas Musawi. He may also have masterminded the kidnapping of two Israeli soldiers in 2006 which sparked a month-long war in Lebanon. Some CIA officials have also fingered Mr Mughniya for bombing an American barracks in Saudi Arabia in 1996, when 19 soldiers were killed.

  Despite America’s offer of a $5m reward, Mr Mughniya escaped numerous attempts to capture or assassinate him. One of his brothers perished in a car bomb in 1994 that was widely believed to have been an Israeli near-miss. Mr Mughniya’s death has produced a wealth of speculation. “After a life of jihad, sacrifice and achievements, and with a longing for martyrdom, Islamic Resistance [ie, Hizbullah] leader Haj Imad Mughniya was assassinated at the hands of criminal Israelis,” read Hizbullah’s statement. Others surmise that he may have been hit by Lebanese operatives working for the CIA or perhaps even by his Syrian hosts. Yet another theory holds that Mr Mughniya has not been killed at all but that the bombing has provided a clever way for him to go still deeper underground.

  … and by the way “Rodge” do you even live in Lebanon? Because your name isn’t that “Lebanese”.

  The best reason to think that he is really dead is that if his death was faked his authority as a terror master was greatly reduced:

  “Hi, work for me, I’m Imad M.”

  “Yeah, right, I’m Napoleon, go climb a tree.”

  You see? If the terror masters wanted a “martyr” they would have chosen one of lesser stature.

  There is one other possibility: Muggy’s death was faked because he has returned to his previous role as a terror operative. I consider that unlikely, but who knows?

  One correction: he was killed (or not) on Tuesday, two days before the Hariri demo. The Syrian intelligence has kept it under wraps for some 24 hours before releasing the news.

  They could have done this to make the burial coincide with the Hariri memorial. Which would mean M. is really dead, because if it was faked,w why didn’t they fake his death on Wednesday?
