Eight Islamist Terrorists fled from the high security Roumieh Prison yesterday. 7 were captured immediately while their leader, a Syrian called Taha Sleiman, managed to escape but was captured by the Lebanese Army around noon time today.
As a result, Lebanon National Hero and Minister of Interior Ziad Baroud, in an unprecedented measure by a Lebanese politician, has dismissed as many as 300 policemen and 60 officers from their duties for either lack of performance or for facilitating the exit of the terrorists from the jail.

It is reported that the Lebanese Army Intelligence did warn the Prison officials of this incident 3 days before it actually took place but no preventive actions were apparently taken by the Warden.
Israel, the US, Egypt and Saudi Arabia do not want Hezbolla to be represented in the Hariri Cabinet in order to facilitate any potential Israeli attack on Hezbolla and on the rest of Lebanon.
Independent Observers noticed that the real Syrian Ambassador to Lebanon is NOT the officially appointed Diplomat but Druze feudal lord Wiam Wahhab who has been acting as Damascus's coordinator and spokesman in the Lebanon.
Meanwhile and for some unknown tactics, Druze warlord Al Wali YoYo Jumblat decided to maintain a political silence till after Ramadan.
Has anyone seen or heard from PM designate Saad Hariri?
