Thank you for all the links great post and I really appreciate the info.. Did you read Krauthammers piece in the Houston Chronical. Awsome.
Yet for two decades, Israel was hectored to comply with U.N. resolutions demanding Israel's withdrawal. In May 2000, it complied. To ensure that there could be no possible residual territorial dispute, Israel asked the United Nations to draw the line demarcating the true Israeli-Lebanese border -- the so-called Blue Line -- then pulled back behind it.

Israel's reward?

Hezbollah was not mollified. While its ostensible mission was the liberation of Lebanese territory, it did not disband. On the contrary. It occupied south Lebanon, imported huge new supplies of weapons from Iran, and began sporadic cross-border attacks on Israel.

Hezbollah has killed Israeli soldiers situated in Israeli territory. It kidnapped three soldiers who have never been seen since. And now, since the end of March, Hezbollah has embarked on a serious and deadly escalation, firing rockets into Israel.

Iraq signs oil cooperation pact with Indonesia
Iraq and Indonesia’s oil ministers recently signed an agreement to enhance bilateral cooperation in oil and gas exploration, reported INA. The agreement calls for Indonesia's state oil and gas company Pertamina to drill for oil and gas in a 10,000 square kilometers block in Iraq's western desert.

In addition, Iraq’s Oil Mminister Amir Muhammad Rashid and his Indonesian counterpart Purnomo Yusgiantoro signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for technical cooperation between the two ministries

Indonesia has made previous efforts to boost cooperation with Iraq under the
United Nations’ (UN) oil-for-food program. Iraq has been under a strict UN embargo since its 1990 invasion of Kuwait. The oil-for-food program, which has been in place since 1996 and allows embargo-hit Iraq to sell oil and buy food, medicine and other essentials for its 22 million people. — (menareport.com)
