The Angry Arab News Service/وكالة أنباء العربي الغاضبThis is new. Al-Quds Al-`Arabi is reporting that Muhammad Dahlan is facing rising anger among Fath for the performance of his forces in Gaza. Apparently, he is attributing the problem to his knee surgery. The news is not here yet. He said that his knee problem is from the time he spent in Israeli jail. Was that from frequent prostration before Israeli occupiers? Because that can really hurt the knees.
Broken Spring? : Information Clearing House This is a sequel to my June 2011 article, ‘After the spring’, on the upheavals in the Arab world. It is an article that has been painful to write, because it brings bad tidings and offers a pessimistic analysis of the upheavals, at least in the short term, in a number of Arab countries. The outcomes and potential outcomes of these uprisings have also acquired new, very significant dimensions. These include a complex entanglement with the accelerated preparations for a possible attack on Iran, and a poisonous, sectarian aspect that could have the consequence of ripping Syria and the Middle East apart.
