UN Still Rippin' On Hariri

Regular readers are no doubt waiting impatiently for an update on the speedy UN response to the Hariri assassination in Lebanon last January. Here it is, from today's UN press briefing:

Question: I have two questions, Stéphane. ... And another question is about the investigating team about Rafik Hariri’s killing.

Associate Spokesman: On the second question, we are still actively looking for someone to head that commission. We did have an administrative team on the ground for about a week. They have prepared the ground on logistics, security, communications matters so, when the commission is named, they can hit the ground running.

Running? What would be the point of running if you're starting your murder investigation a full season after the crime?
