Indian Punchline

7th February, 2013

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.

Famous leader of FPLP supports Syrian army and Syrian people

Posted by seumasach on February 7, 2013

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”]

 

Resistencia Libia

6th February, 2013

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”.

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.
