Benjamin Netanyahu, the hawkish leader of a right-wing Israeli Coalition has emerged as the new prime-minister of Israel. "Bibi" as he is known has made it clear that the priority of the Israeli government will be the influence of Iran over Hezbollah and Hamas and preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons capability. Last autumn prior to the December-January war assault on Gaza, hundreds of Israeli warplanes engaged in an exercise over the Mediterranean which is said to have been a rehearsal long range air strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities. Since the 1973 conflict which led to the defeat of massive Egyptian and Syrian forces, Israel is alleged to have acquired a large nuclear arsenal allowing it to control the balance of power in the Middle East.

Love or loath him, Christopher Hitchens is always interesting. A loud-mouthed atheist, enemy of American Christian whackjobs and Islamist wingnuts alike, an acerbic wit, left-wing gadfly, supporter of the Iraq War and opponent of water-boarding, supporter of Bush and Obama, British born American citizen, Hitchens does not fit comfortably into any boxes. During a visit to Beiruit he defaced a Syrian nationalist poster and was on the recieving end of an attack by pro-Syrian militia who may or may not have been trying to abduct (and maybe torture) him. read full story / add a comment |
