Well, the funeral wasn’t even over, or the next event announced itself, quite spontaneously, through an anchor woman who did not know her microphone was still open while commenting on the images of the funeral.
Fatfat sues NBN anchor
Youth and Sports Minister Ahmad Fatfat filed a judicial complaint against NBN anchor Sawsan Safa Darwish after her comments and laughter regarding the assassination of Beirut MP Walid Eido and her statement that “Fatfat should be next.”
During NBN’s live coverage of the aftermath of the explosion that killed Eido on Wednesday, Darwish, who did not realize her microphone was on, said: "So, why did it take them so long to kill him? Fatfat should be next. I'm counting them down… we've
had enough of them."
NBN, owned by pro-Syrian speaker of parliament Nabih Berry, fired the anchor, apologized in a statement and said "the comments made do not represent the station in any way.”
Fatfat meanwhile told Al-Arabiya network he is concerned for his life. He said he had hired an attorney and is prepared to sue the station for comments he interpreted as a direct threat.

Now if that’s not rich, I do not know what is. Imagine things like this happening in Holland at the same speed as they happen here. The Dutch would be overdosed in no time. You have to love this country.

She looks nice enough, this Sawsan Safa Darwish. Pity she was fired.
