 Dossier: Rafiq Hariri (July 2001)
Rafiq Bahaa Edine Hariri was born in the Lebanese town of Sidon in 1944, the son of a Sunni Muslim farmer and greengrocer.
Hariri is reported to have channeled an estimated 3.2 billion francs to the political campaigns of French President Jacques Chirac and his allies.
By the summer of 1992, Hariri was at the helm of reconstruction planning in the capital, which many had already begun to dub "Haririgrad." Having purchased major shares in several radio and television stations, newspapers and magazines, Hariri was soon being hailed by the Lebanese media as an economic savior.

 Sparrow Chat: Rafiq Hariri - A Fortunate Assassination?
When Rafiq Hariri, ex prime minister and bulwark of Lebanese politics, was assassinated in early February, it was impossible not to notice the speed with which the American administration pointed an accusing finger at Syria.
Admittedly, Rafiq Hariri was keen to see the back of the military aspect of Syrian involvement in the country, but the Syrian government would know full well the implications of assassinating Hariri, and nothing obvious was to be gained from such an action.
Hariri was of Saudi origin and there was no love lost, but it seems a somewhat pointless exercise, even for Islamic extremists, and could never be beneficial to their cause.

 PolitInfo.com - Rafiq Hariri: Driving Force Behind Beirut Reconstruction - Feb 14, 2005 Cairo
Rafiq Hariri was born in Lebanon in 1944, the son of a Sunni Muslim farmer and grocer.
Following his death on Monday, the secretary general of the 22-member Arab League, Amr Moussa, called Rafiq Hariri a great Arab leader and a first class politician.
Hariri was a major financier of opposing militias in Lebanon during the country's civil war, which lasted from 1975-to-1990.

 rafiq hariri
The Syrian government killed Rafiq Hariri, because they are afraid that Lebanon would not just be sovereign if they pulled out their forces, but might in time be dominated by another power, be it Israel or the US, which is more likely.
Lebanese education officials said the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafiq Hariri had not resulted in the loss of many Gulf students, reported Gulf News.
Hariri's assassination plunged Lebanon into its worst political crisis since the end of the 1975-90 civil war and brought the economy to a standstill.

 Lebanon: The Return (?) of Rafiq al-Hariri, The Estimate, September 8, 2000
Rafiq Baha’ al-Din al-Hariri was born in November 1944 in the southern Lebanese port city of Sidon (Saida), the eldest of three children of a Lebanese farming family of modest means.
Hariri’s premiership was not always as popular as the size of his victory might lead one to believe; many distrusted the role of money in consolidating his power, and questioned the awarding of reconstruction contracts.
Hariri is usually described as a man of enormous ambitions; in person he certainly comes across as a man who enjoys his wealth but is also determined to use it for maximum influence, in philanthropy but also in politics.

 Rafiq Hariri
Hariri stays in Saudi Arabia, but is involved in both help projects in Lebanon, as well as in funding opposing militia groups.
Hariri has both been the architect behind the reconstruction work of Beirut, as well as the one profiting most from it.
— Among Hariri's first changes in politics were to cut income and corporate taxes to 10%, and he borrowed billions of dollars to rebuild the infrastructure of Lebanon, in particular the infrastructure of Beirut.

 Profile: Rafiq al-Hariri
Hariri was appointed as prime minister in 1992, when his country needed a savior to make it recover from the destruction of the war.
Hariri’s supporters praise him as the savior of Lebanon’s war-devastated economy, but critics claim that his administration was corrupt and that it saddled the country with huge debts.
Hariri was assassinated on February 14, 2005, in a massive explosion outside the St. George Hotel in the Lebanese capital, Beirut.

 (DV) Amr: Honoring Rafiq Hariri's Legacy
Rafiq El Hariri was Lebanon’s supreme therapist -- a man with a silver tongue and a gentle style who used his considerable communication skills to convince all parties to lay down their arms, disband their militias and give peace and coexistence a chance.
Rafiq Hariri understood these realities and one hopes that Damascus also understands that Chirac will act in the best interest of both the Lebanese and Syrian people.
When the Lebanese civil war broke out in 1975, Rafiq El Hariri was barely thirty years old -- a young Lebanese immigrant running his own small construction company in Saudi Arabia.

 Washington Watch: Rafiq Hariri: Visionary for Lebanon
The terrorist blast that murdered Rafiq Hariri did more than kill him and kill and maim so many others, it also struck like a knife cutting deep into the heart of the fragile Lebanon that Hariri so loved.
It was during this first return visit that I met Rafiq Hariri.
Hariri was right to constantly remind me, “It’s your country.” I obviously feel an affinity to the country of my parents.

 Reason: Man of Silk: Rafiq Hariri, R.I.P.
Hariri is an odd choice for assassination given how much more vociferous Druze leader Walid Jumblatt has been in his opposition to the Syrian occupation.
The assassination of former Lebanese prime minister and reconstruction mastermind Hariri, by a car bomb on the very waterfront he rebuilt after the country's 16-year civil war, is the worst news out of the Middle East in the last two years.
The heavy-handed methods of Solidere in the 1990s, and the organization's virtual monopoly on local construction projects—roughly coinciding with Hariri's terms as prime minister—were nobody's model of a truly free market (i.e., one that operates through voluntary contract rather than government gamesmanship); and the buildings that resulted are frequently ugly, gaudy, unwelcoming, or all three.

 ..HaGaSnY.. - The assassination of Rafiq Hariri: Mossad, the CIA and Lebanon
The murder of Rafiq Hariri constitutes a brutal warning that the US war in Iraq is only the beginning of a far broader campaign of military aggression aimed at crushing resistance to US and Israeli domination.
The US media has responded predictably to the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafiq Hariri, echoing the bellicose threats of the Bush administration against Syria and amplifying unsubstantiated charges that the regime in Damascus was the author of the killing.

 LI Islamic Forum - Who Killed Rafiq Al-Hariri?
Hariri was a giant among progressive Arab and Muslim leaders, and though he made money in Saudi Arabia and was friendly to the government, his attitude in Lebanon was very progressive and he made sure the church and state were kept separate in Lebanese political decisions.
Hariri’s killing, like so many of those in Iraq, is the work of either the Israeli dark ops or American mercenaries who have been hired out to kill people who are progressive in the Arab and Muslim worlds.
Hariri was a man beloved by all sides, even his former political foes.

Today's bomb blast in Lebanon, which killed former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafiq Hariri, is a harbinger that a peaceful, democratic transition of Governments in the Middle East is a foolish pipe dream.
Exiled Lebanese political leader Michel Aoun accused Syria of responsibility for the death of former Lebanese prime minister Rafiq Hariri.
+++"Three months after Israel was "driven out" of southern Lebanon there were elections in Lebanon, won, against the Syrian leadership's wishes, by the current prime minister, Rafiq al-Hariri, and his allies, the Druze.

 Scoop: Rafiq Hariri's Assassination - Syrial Killer?
Rafiq Hariri appeared in the Lebanese political scene during the 1980s, when he acted as Saudi Arabia’s personal emissary to the different protagonists of the civil war in Lebanon, and mediated frequently between Damascus and the various political figures in Lebanon.
In 2004 Rafiq Hariri decided to switch to the Lebanese opposition, which benefited from this move as it received from him not only a huge financial support, but got also through his international contacts (ranging for President Chirac to the Sheiks of the Persian Gulf) a vast diplomatic and political support.
After army commander Emile Lahoud was installed as president, Rafiq Hariri repeatedly disagreed with him on many political issues.
