U.S. ambassador to Lebanon Dorothy Shea condemns Lokman Slim's murder, but stops short of suggesting who was responsible. Amb. Shea doesn't mention Hezbollah at all, or Slim's antagonistic relationship with the group. https://twitter.com/usembassybeirut/status/1357394746545700864
2a-I understand not jumping to conclusions on Slim's killers. All facts not yet known (and may never be known). While all fingers seemingly point to Hezbollah, there's no conclusive evidence that the group did it. (cont'd) https://twitter.com/DavidADaoud/status/1357460248181760006
2b-Still, seems a deliberate signal for 2 US officials not to mention his antagonistic relationship w/Hezbollah at all. Blinken acknowledges Slim's "political activism" but ignores its primary target; Shea says Slim threatened, but not likeliest culprit -- in both cases Hezbollah
