Marine Cpl. Wassef Ali Hassoun came into the US embassy in Beirut after allegedly being kidnapped and held hostage and is going to a US base in Germany. The entire story has become so murky that I am reluctant to say anything at all about it. A firefight broke out among Hassoun's clansmen and others in Tripoli, northern Lebanon, with enemies charging that the Hassouns are collaborators because he is in the Marines. The Marines are not entirely sure whether the hostage incident was real or staged.
Perhaps he wouldn't have been found and returned to the embassy if the fighting hadn't broken out?
I still say his best bet is to cut a deal to create a story about a heroic escape.
....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
