Jumblatt predicts more assassinations
Lebanese MP Walid Jumblatt was quoted in Sunday's Asharq al-Awsat Arabic-language daily as claiming that a plan existed to kill more so-called majority MPs "so a pro-Syrian president is elected." According to Sharq el Awsat newspaper, Jumblatt claims that there is a plot to kill 4 MPs from the so-called majority alliance.
The ruling bloc now has 68 MPs in the 128-seat parliament following Wednesday's assassination of MP Antoine Ghanem.
Meanwhile, around 40 MPs of the ruling bloc have installed themselves in the luxury Phoenicia Hotel about a kilometer (less than a mile) away from the parliament building ahead of Tuesday's presidential vote. The hotel, where security has always been strict, is now cordoned off by both the police and the army.
