Hezbollah Chief hails Gaza resistance as "miracle and legend"_English_Xinhua: "BEIRUT, Jan. 5 (Xinhua) -- Chief of Lebanese Shiite armed group Hezbollah Hasan Nasrallah said Monday night that the resistance steadiness in Gaza until Monday is a 'miracle and a legend,' al-Manar TV reported.

Addressing a huge Ashoura gathering in the southern suburbs of Beirut, Nasrallah said that it is a 'divine gift from God that the people in Gaza are still resisting.'

'With little possibilities and a lot of faith, people are resisting, and will make the greatest victory at the end,' Nasrallah said.

He stressed that the prayers for the resistance from believers all around the world made the victory of 2006 war, and today 'No one should underestimate the prayers for Gaza people, which we are seeing now in their steadiness.'

Hezbollah fought in 2006 a 34-day fierce war with Israel, which was considered a victory to Hezbollah since Israel could not defeat them."

Broken Spring?       : Information Clearing House

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.

McClatchy Washington Bureau | 01/13/2009 | Poll: American public backs Israel firmly in war with Hamas

McClatchy Washington Bureau | 01/13/2009 | Poll: American public backs Israel firmly in war with Hamas : "WASHINGTON — As Palestinian casualties mount in the Gaza Strip, the American people are squarely behind Israel and overwhelmingly think that using force against Hamas is appropriate, according to a new McClatchy/Ipsos poll. Forty-four percent of Americans support Israel's use of force, while only 18 percent considered Hamas' use of force appropriate. Fifty-seven percent think that Hamas is using excessive force, while only 36 percent said Israel was. Nearly 1,000 Palestinians have been killed in the violence — soldiers and civilians — and at least nine Israeli soldiers and four civilians have died. When it comes to who's to blame for the latest Middle East crisis, Americans blame Hamas hands down: Forty-four percent said Hamas, 14 percent said Israel and 29 percent said they weren't sure. Nine percent said both, and 4 percent said neither."
