As far as I can see, the only party that benefits from Gemayel's assassination is Israel.

Israeli troops, who were part of the cordon, would claim that even though they knew the circumstances after Gemayel's asassination, even though they had allowed the Phalange militia to enter, even though they heard the screams and shots for over 36 hours, they had no idea what was happening in Sabra and Shatila.

But even if we grant that Syria was behind Harriri's assassination (and as I explained in a posting at the time, there is very good evidence to support this assessment) it is hard to see what Syria or Hezbollah gain from Gemayel's killing.

Gemayel's death has added to the tension and made a political solution even less likely.

The Times reports that Gemayel's murder could torpedo Tony Blair's proposal to involve Syria in talks regarding Iraq and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

After a Honda CRV rammed into Gemayel's car, at least three gunmen leaped out and sprayed it with bullets from silenced automatic weapons, the Daily Telegraph reported.
