Hmmm...

Was the Syrian Dept of the Interior murdered? Former United States-Middle East mediator Dennis Ross believes this to be the case.

Pure Speculation: Was he involved in the assassination of Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri? And was his murder revenge to appease Lebanon to avoid an international incident? (This assumes the Syrian government took part in it)

This is not as ludicrous as it may seem. Remember how under the older Assad, Syria leveled and utterly destroyed one of its own cities (Hama) killing between 10,000 to 25,000 civilians in 1982 to put down an insurrection?
