EXCLUSIVE: "Uranium-rich bomb killed Hariri"

Al Seyassah, an independent Kuwaiti newspaper, reported on August 31 that: “The experts [investigating Hariri’s murder] who have lived through the previous Lebanese wars recalled the crime scene where former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri was killed.” These experts noted that the bomb blast burned Hariri’s convoy of cars without flipping them over. They also recalled that nearby buildings were only moderately damaged.

The experts said that bombs employing TNT or C-4 cause horrible damage, and often blow surrounding vehicles up into the air. On the other hand, the cars in Hariri’s convoy burned in their respective spots, without flipping over or being shot up into the air. The experts concluded, therefore, that a Uranium-rich bomb weighing four kilograms (8.8 pounds) was used in committing the assassination. - Al Seyassah, Kuwait
