Immediately after assassinating the governor, they sent a letter to the caliph, expressing their loyalty to him despite their act.38 Here, again, it is tempting to analyze the case as a matter of “weak” or “strong” government, but it is important to recognize that plots to kill governors were dealt with depending on the power relations in the particular situation and that the Umayyad political system allowed the reintegration of rebels, even at the very high position of provincial governor.	cache/alusur-9499.pdf	txt/alusur-9499.txt
