Lebanon's Prime Minister Najib Mikati has condemned the attack on Saleh al-Arouri. The government for the past three months has been trying its best to avoid confrontation with Israel.

The situation in the south is alarming and it's been in talks with Hezbollah not to take it a step further. Foreign mediators have been coming to Beirut the French, the Americans, and other Western officials - to pressure the Lebanese government to establish a wall from confrontation.

Now the government has to deal with this assassination directly because it knows it will trigger a series of events, which it wants to contain as much as possible.
