The Escalator Grinds to a Halt
It is apparently not much of an exaggeration to say that Israel’s attack on Iran fizzled. Some targets were hit and at least two Iranian soldiers were killed, but the ineffectiveness of the operation was probably due to several factors: Israel just doesn’t have the weaponry. Most of its missiles don’t have the distance, and […]

Pandora Box Has Been Opened, and No One is Trying to Close It
Lately the response of the world community to global events has become more and more ambiguous. While some countries define specific actions as an act of terrorism, the others consider them to be merely the way of protecting the interests of a certain state.

The End Game in Palestine
I’ve appended an excellent article by Mike Whitney, which I read as I was starting to write this. It makes mine much shorter because it says much of what I intended, and better, with good references.
