Hague told a news conference in London after meeting Syrian rebel figures that London cannot hand over the embassy over legal considerations, adding the rebels will receive the mission at the right moment.
What’s up with Hague? When is a “sole legitimate representative ” not a “sole legitimate representative”? Well, when there is already a legitimate representative government in Damascus. When will this “right moment” come? Never.

Dirigente de izquierda argelina pide la salida del país de la Liga anti-árabe
Resistencia Libia
5th April, 2013
En el curso de un mitin político realizado el 30 de marzo en la ciudad costera argelina de Orán, la presidenta del Partido de los Trabajadores (PT), cercana al gobierno, Louise Hanoune, ha pedido al presidente de la República que a la vista de la escandalosa reunión de Doha de la liga anti-árabe controlada por los petro-feudales de Qatar y Arabia Saudita al servicio de Israel y la CIA, ordene su salida de la misma. Ha calificado a la citada organización anti-árabe de “liga de los lacayos del imperialismo”. Ha señalado que la decisión criminal de tal liga de entregar armas a los terroristas árabes es una “declaración de muerte” de la misma.Es evidente que esta política expresa la opinión de los sectores mayoritarios de la sociedad argelina que aún conserva los valores de la Revolución nacional de 1956 a 1962.

Frankly, it never was much of a “League” of Arab states. And arguably it never really achieved a whole lot but two dozen lavish ‘summits’ offering inflated rhetoric, often calculated to assuage the Arab people about their central cause, Palestine.

What’s Left
18th March, 2013
Why has North Korea withdrawn from an armistice agreement that has kept overt hostilities on the Korean peninsula at bay since 1953? Does the withdrawal portend an imminent North Korean aggression? Hardly. North Korea is in no position to launch an attack on its Korean neighbour, or on the United States, at least not one that it would survive. North Korean forces are dwarfed by the US and South Korean militaries in size, sophistication and fire-power. The withdrawal serves, instead, as a signal of North Korean resolve to defend itself against growing US and South Korean harassment, both military and economic.
