Seniora’s Wife “Hit By A Motorcycle”

May 24, 2011 · Mustapha Hamoui

Now Lebanon:

Future bloc leader MP Fouad Siniora’s wife, Hoda, was hit on Tuesday by a motorcycle in the street of Verdun in Beirut. A source from Siniora’s press office told NOW Lebanon that the MP’s wife suffered “injuries and bruises,”

This happened on the same day a “wikileaks” story surfaced that Assad hated Seniora as much as he hated Hariri. This is too big a coincidence to be one, especially since Mr. Hariri has been avoiding Lebanon lately for security reasons. I’m marking this in my head as the resumption (or the threat of resumption) of political assassinations in Lebanon.

As an aside, I have once been hit by a motorcycle in Hamra and I flew back 3 meters. It wasn’t good.
