Please, some respect. You are quick at mixing business issues with pleasure, or grief in this case. Here's the true story as revealed by Mongopedia:
Samir Geagea is the common alias under which a Lebanese War Crime Lord and equally a giant authority in Theoretical Psychiatry, is known. Back in 1994 and as a secret agent in Médecins Sans Frontičres, Geagea, the medicine professor, was sent on a classic undercover operation into Syria. His mission was to cure Hafez Assad, who was in a very bad psychic shape, grieving his lost son Bassel.
The international community feared that an unstable and unbalanced Assad constituted a serious risk to the World's Peace. Therefore extraordinary measures had to be taken and the best of the best was needed to contain the threat.. In the below picture one can clearly see the glassy gaze in Hafez eyes, seconds after he shook hands with professor Gaga..
