"And I have found both freedom and safety in my madness, the freedom of loneliness and the safety from being understood, for those who understand us enslave something in us. But let me not be too proud of my safety. Even a Thief in a jail is safe from another thief. "

Samaha transfer cancelled over 'liquidation' plot- Daily Star

BEIRUT: A decision to move former Information Minister Michel Samaha, who is being tried on terror charges, from his prison cell to a hospital has been cancelled due to a threat to assassinate him, local newspaper Al-Joumhouria said Monday.
 
The report, citing security sources, said Samaha’s transfer request was approved by the military prosecutor, but was soon revoked after authorities were tipped off about the possible “liquidation” of Samaha, given the vital information in his possession and the Syrian regime’s role in the alleged terror plots.
