So why did Rice meet this week, asks a former US government official, with the former Lebanese militia leader Samir Geagea, recently released from prison for murdering Dany Chamoun and his family, and perpetrator of numerous other atrocities? This source, no shrinking violet, described Geagea as truly a war criminal. "This guy is a psychopath." How can you tell Hezbollah to disarm if you are working with this militia leader, he further asks. For the Bush administration, Geagea has one important credential, apparently: he's anti Syrian. "As they say, the enemy of my enemy gets my visa," Al Kamen writes. And a meeting with the White House's Stephen Hadley.
FLC has posted the invitation: "What next? Will Congress host ... Radovan Karadzic?" Apparently if certain quarters are working for his rehabilitation.
