Maria Maalouf

Maria Maalouf (Arabic: ماريا معلوف‎), is a Lebanese journalist and political analyst. Maalouf made international news when she received death threats on her cell phone. One threat from a Lebanese man told Maalouf in English, that "you are a dead girl."^[1] Maalouf quickly alerted the authorities.

The message that Maria Maalouf received on her cell phone was in response to a political program she had taped the earlier day. On that program Maalouf invited renowned German criminal investigator Jürgen Cain Külbel who spoke about his latest book, which accused the Mossad of assassinating former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri rather than Syria.

Media

Maalouf used to host a political program on NewtvSat called "bela raqeeb" (Arabic for "without censorship"). She now hosts a political program on the Lebanese channel NBN. Maalouf's objective political analysis and research is foreign in the typical partisan media of Lebanon. Maalouf has also founded a number of Kuwaiti and Lebanese newspapers.
