Morning, y’all, Jebediah Murphy here with some of that truthiness stuff. And the truth is, this couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy
A senior Hezbollah commander suspected in some of the highest-profile international terrorist attacks of the last 25 years has died in an explosion in Syria, Hezbollah TV said Wednesday.
Imad Mughniyeh died Tuesday in an explosion in a residential section of the Syrian capital, Damascus, according to Hezbollah’s television station, Al-Manar.
Of course, Israel was blamed (and I am sure the Leftards around the world will condemn Israel), but Israel said “hey, no, not us.” Ya kinda gots to believe them. They will usually take credit for something like this.
Western intelligence agencies long suspected Mughniyeh in the 1983 bombing of the U.S. Embassy in Beirut, Lebanon, that killed 63 people, according to a 2001 CNN report. He also was suspected in the truck bombing that year of the U.S. Marine barracks in Beirut, an attack that killed 241 people and preceded the U.S. military withdrawal from Lebanon.
The FBI listed Hezbollah’s Mughniyeh as one of its Most Wanted Terrorists, blaming him for his role in the 1985 hijacking of TWA Flight 847, which gripped the attention of TV viewers in the United States and around the world for more than two weeks.

Captain Ed says the same thing, and also writes that it sounds more like the Syrian military did it. Live through terrorism, die through terrorism.
Haazrt states that Mughniyeh was more wanted then Nasrallah. Not anymore, though!
