Harboring Terrorists and Terrorizing Dissidents
By David Schenker
The killing of Imad Mughniyeh put Syria in the headlines today.
I had a piece on Syria that appeared in the Weekly Standard online today---not about Damascus’ provision of safe haven to terrorists like Mughniyeh, but about how Syria terrorizes its own people. The WS article focuses on leading Syrian dissident Riad Seif, and how his recent arrest essentially constitutes a death sentence for the 61-year old reformer.
