from the Foreign Policy Blog, here "...Previously, I speculated that the Saudis might have been involved in Mougniyah's killing. The Saudis have long sought revenge for the 1996 Khobar Towers attack, which they blame on Mougniyah and Iran.

Prince Bandar was allegedly involved then, too, so either he's still at it or the Syrians are simply grasping for the most plausible storyline...."
