Not that much of a surprise but sad for the people of Lebanon.

This made me laugh. Hezbollah has declared 8 American born basketball players as spies and threats to the security of Lebanon because their lackluster journeyman careers included playing in Israel. http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4165779,00.html I'm sure there are more plausible...

This is an interesting report on Hezbollah's contingency plans for the potential loss of one of their backers. It states that in the event of Assad falling, Hezbollah troops will take over part of Beirut (like they did in their partial coup in 2008) and possibly extend it to an all out takeover...

I was expecting to log in and see the usual discussion of 'Christian Terrorism' as the cause of this nut's attempted shooting and am shocked that I'll have to get my entertainment from other posts. Oh well. http://www.cnn.com/2011/11/17/justice/dc-white-house-shooting/index.html?hpt=hp_t2...

It seems something sane happening in the world. Could the US be using their military/economic might for positive reasons? http://www.thestar.com/news/world/article/1087786--bahrain-under-scrutiny-after-u-s-links-arms-sale-to-rights-findings

Could it be that politics is more important than actually helping palestinians for these anti-Israel activists? http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4143893,00.html

Heard on the radio that the owner has hired some high profile criminal lawyer. Sounds like there's an interesting story behind all this. http://www.thestar.com/news/crime/article/1079286--seventh-suspicious-package-found-at-halloween-party-store

No thread on this yet but Israel is trading over 1000 Palestinian prisoners who were convicted in proper trials (including over 100 convicted of murdering civilians) for one abducted Israeli who's only crime was to be in uniform on the Israeli side of the green line...

Iran once again highlights what a wonderful place it is. http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4133468,00.html

And it's not fuji. http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/assad-syria-will-shower-tel-aviv-with-rockets-if-attacked-by-foreign-powers-1.388135 So if 'foreign powers' intervene in Syria's assault on it's own people, they will launch attacks on Israel. Not only that they will get...

I wasn't sure which of the many threads to post this in because the usuals always claim that Hamas wants peace so here is it's own thread. http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/hamas-resistance-against-israel-is-only-option-left-for-palestinians-1.387504 Doesn't seem to be any...

So much for equal rights for minorities. http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/plo-official-palestinians-israelis-must-be-totally-separated-1.384493 Of course most people have always assumed that the eventual Palestinian state would refuse Jews to be allowed but this guy seems to say...

With the possible UN vote on recognition of a Palestinian state, i figured it would be useful to take a read of the current state of the drafts for the Palestinian constitution. Although Abbas has said there still haws to be a finalization of the constitution, the last accepted draft was...

The report is ready: Grog/flub didn't care that when the IDF and their videos said that the 'activists' had planned to and resisted violently, the activists videos showed they planned to and resisted violently and now the official UN report finds that they planned to and resisted violently As...

Title says it all. 7 Israelis killed, 26 wounded. Targets were buses and private cars http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/hamas-we-didn-t-carry-out-southern-israel-attacks-but-we-praise-them-1.379336

Any ideas? Some of these pun threads stink.

I'm sitting here disappointed about the results but the fans booing all through the presentation is classless.

It seams the Turkish 'peace activists' group took offense to a multi-faith concert in Istanbul and forced its cancellation because one of the musicians was born in Israel. http://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/n.php?n=yuval-ron-concert-canceled-because-of-threats-2011-06-10

Not news though since it was Israelis settlers who were turfed from their illegal homes. http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4077629,00.html
