| #3 I wonder if they checked with the family before announcing they would be calling. Didn't the family shut the door in the faces of members of the current government when they tried to come to the funeral? |

| #1 Ansari, during his visit, is due to condole with the bereaved family of Hariri. Seems odd that the family would be willing to condole with an Iranian rep. |
