• Is Saudi Arabia gearing up for war?
• Iran doesn’t deserve the legitimacy that comes with hosting the Non-Aligned Movement’s summit. David Harris offers five reasons to deny Ahmadinejad the grandstanding he desperately needs:
In other words, this is not the time to embrace Iran, but to shun it for (i) its complicity in Syria, (ii) trampling of human rights, (iii) sponsorship of terrorism, (iv) violation of UN Security Council resolutions and IAEA guidelines regarding its nuclear program, and (v) genocidal desire to annihilate another UN member state.
If you haven’t seen it yet, HonestReporting’s slideshare makes a similar point.

• I need a scorecard to keep up with the latest Damascus defections. Add Syria’s Prime Minister (you read that right), first astronaut, and a senior intelligence officer,
• Rebel sources claim 3,000 Iranian fighters arrived in Damascus. The JCPA has a more in-depth look at what’s known about The Role of Iranian Security Forces in Syria.
• Senators John McCain, Joe Lieberman and Lindsay Graham took to the Washington Post op-ed section to call for more hands-on assistance to Syrian rebels.
• AP: A state-run TV station in the middle of Damascus was bombed.
• German anti-war personality Jürgen Todenhöfer defended his July interview with Assad.
Some of Mr. Todenhöfer’s critics in Germany said the interview was a self-indulgent exercise that had allowed the Syrian president to convey false humanity.

France 24 TV this morning reported after the attack that Egypt closed its border crossing with Israel(!), even though it had closed the the Gaza border, making it sound like Israel was reponsible for the attack. It also reported that the gunmen “tried” to kill the Egyptian troops, even though the Israeli media had been reporting for hours that at least 15 Egyptians had been killed.

I’m not surprised that support for the Islamists has to be bought or that the Muslim Brotherhood is blackmailing people in need. That has been a common accustaion at Christian missions. For example. when an Afghani man converted to Christianity he applied for asylum in the USA because he was under a death threat and would most likely have been murdered by Islaimsts applying Shariah law. When asylum was granted the Islamists accused the man of converting to Chistianity just to find asylum in the USA. That should tell us volumes about Islam but nobody seems to pay attention to reality. Honest Reporting one of the great exceptions.

(About the Shapiro/Arraf story) So, Galilee is now also in Palestine? At least they are being honest about their true intentions. Why are the Irish betting on the evil losers again. Did they not learn from their support of Germany last century?
