President Barack Obama’s decision to make Israel his first official visit abroad after the inauguration is both symbolic as well as hugely substantive. Symbolic in the sense that he will be underscoring the centrality of the Middle East in the United States’, foreign policy agenda, and signaling that carrying Israel along is useful.

Famosa dirigente del Frente Popular de Liberación de Palestina (FPLP) apoya al ejército y pueblo de Siria
Leila Khaled:
“Estoy gritando con toda mi voz: Estamos con el ejército sirio y el pueblo de Siria. Tenemos confianza en el pueblo de Siria, que nos han llevado, a los palestinos, bajo sus alas y nos acogieron en sus tierras desde hace más de sesenta años. Estamos seguros de que van a prevalecer sobre este problema”.
[“I am crying at the top of my voice: We are with the Syrian army and the Syrian people. We have confidence in the people of Syria who have, for more than sixty years taken we Palestinians under their wing and welcomed us in their country. We are sure they will prevail”]

El FPLP es la histórica organización marxista fundada por el gran Georges Habache, que se ha ilustrado por una lucha larga, constante y enérgica contra la entidad sionista y el imperialismo y por la Revolución y la Unidad árabes. No hay que confundir el FPLP con sus viejas escisiones que en la actualidad siguen activas políticamente, el Frente Democrático de Liberación de Palestina (FDLP) y el FPLP (Comando General) dirigido por Ahmed Jibril que se conoce por su apoyo enfático y combativo al gobierno y pueblo de Siria.
El FPLP hasta la fecha de hoy había mostrado una actitud blanda ante la agresión desenfrenada del imperialismo y sus lacayos contra el gobierno, pueblo, República y ejército de Siria. Es por eso que acogemos con entusiasmo y alegría la posición expresada por la dirigente histórica del FPLP Leila Khaled de esta forma: “Estoy gritando con toda mi voz: Estamos con el ejército sirio y el pueblo de Siria. Tenemos confianza en el pueblo de Siria, que nos han llevado, a los palestinos, bajo sus alas y nos acogieron en sus tierras desde hace más de sesenta años. Estamos seguros de que van a prevalecer sobre este problema”.

Hillary Clinton’s departure was carefully orchestrated to preserve her chances of becoming the Democratic Party’s candidate for the next presidential election. The former first lady still contemplates returning to the White House and all the bets are on for a spectacular duel in 2016 between the two political dynasties, with Jeb Bush (GWB’s elder brother) as the other contestant.

CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts – Iran and the United States are on the verge of a historical opportunity to repair their frozen relations and thus reverse the spiral of conflict spiral that for years has dominated their interactions. It is the right thing to do and at the right time, given the fact that more often than not past opportunities were lost simply because one side or the other was not “ready”.

Explanation of vote by independent Belgian MP Laurent Louis, Belgian Parliament January 17, 2013
4th February, 2013
Thank you, Mr. President.
Dear Ministers, dear colleagues.
Belgium is indeed the land of surrealism. This morning we learned from the media that the Belgian army is incapable of subduing some extremist soldiers with radical Islamist beliefs embedded within its own ranks and who cannot be dismissed for lack of legal means. However, at the same time, we decide to help France in its war against “terror” by providing logistical support for its operation in Mali.

Since last weekend, Israel attacked Syria multiple times. Doing so was premeditated, unprovoked aggression.

France organized the Free Syrian Army (FSA), going so far as to endow it with its own flag, that of the French Mandate of Syria (1920-1946). She officially provided the FSA with arms and funding, in breach of international treaties. And, unofficially, she flanked it by officers and trainers with the aim of overthrowing the legal and legitimate government. The FSA has devastated the country’s infrastructure and launched major battles that have cost the lives of nearly 60,000 Syrians, yet failed to seize power.

A successful subversion of the Syrian government with militants becomes increasingly unlikely. Over the course of the last week the Syrian military forces have inflicted heavy losses on the NATO and GCC backed insurgents.

Lavrov: Russia’s Priority Is Achieving Comprehensive Solution in Syria Not Regime Change
30th January, 2013
MOSCOW, (SANA) – Russia’s Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov, said that that the Geneva statement, issued by the international action group on Syria on June 30th last year, needs no clarification or interpretation as it simply provides for halting violence by all sides and nominating the negotiators to form the structure of the temporary leading body and specify its tasks.
