Gaza: The saga continues


They say a picture is worth a thousend words... this one by CoxAndForkum.com seems to be worth a million.

In addition, while I have discussed the matter of the futility of the militant kidnapping of Cpl. Gilad Shalit in my previous post, it seems that some in the Arab media have also developed a critical view of the matter. Read this coloumn by the General Manager of the Al Arabiya network and former editor-in-chief of the influential Asharaq Alawsat newspaper, Abdul Rahman Al rashed. It provides a fair minded view of the discussions going inside the Arab world with regards to the Palestinian stance. It too stresses that if the Palestinians do not wake up and become pragmatic soon, they will find themselves alone in their quest for independence
