Hoss questions excluding Israel from crime responsibility in Lebanon

Former Lebanese Prime Minister Salim al-Hoss questioned the reason why some of his country's figures rush to acquit Israel of the terrible crimes perpetrated in Lebanon over the past few months and led to tension between Syria and Lebanon.

Speaking in a meeting of UNESCO Palace in Beirut overnight, al-Hoss said "Israel is the greatest beneficiary from all such heinous crimes which also irritated part of the local opinion in Lebanon against Arabs."
