The Muslim World

1.Egyptian Foreign Minister Nabil Elaraby on Monday told Iran not to meddle in the internal affairs of Gulf Arab states, saying that Cairo considers the security of fellow Arab countries "a red line", or no-go area. Tensions between non-Arab Iran and its Gulf Arab neighbors have risen after Tehran objected to the dispatch of Saudi troops to Bahrain in March to help crush an uprising by mostly Shiite Muslims against the kingdom's Sunni rulers, and a spying row.

Comment: Sunni vs Shia...Arab muslim vs non-arab muslim

2.More than 10,000 Syrians have fled their country Monday in search of refuge in Turkey and Lebanon, due to the brutal repression by President Bashar al-Assad's regime, according to UN under-secretary-general for humanitarian affairs and emergency relief coordinator, Valerie Amos.

Comment: The civil war in Syria heats up. After all, it is an arab spring.

3.An online video uploaded by Syrian opposition activists shows protestors setting fire to Iranian and Hezbollah flags during a demonstration held east of Damascus on Tuesday. "Not Iran and not Hezbollah, we want a president who's afraid of Allah," the protesters shouted.

COMMENT: More proof that the so-called uprising and "Arab Spring" is nothing more than a religious proxy war between Sunni's and Shia's and the furthest thing from their minds is the Obama democracy spin.

4.Palestinian officials said Sunday that a high-profile meeting between the leaders of the rival Palestinian factions Fatah and Hamas, set for Tuesday, has been called off. Tuesday's meeting between Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and Hamas Politburo Chief Khaled Mashaal had been expected to name the prime minister over an emerging reconciliation government. (AP)

COMMENT: I wish the stock market was as predictable as these buffoons.

5.A European shipment of humanitarian aid arrived at Gaza Strip via the Port of el-Arish in Egypt, on Wednesday. The shipment – which was part of the "Miles of Smiles" project – The sail was coordinated with Egyptian authorities and transferred to Gaza in what IDF sources described as "proof there is no need to breach the Gaza blockade"

COMMENT:This confirms again what we all know. The Flotilla is nothing more than a provocation. It is just one more example of deceit and fabrication coming out of the muslim world.

6.BEIRUT (Reuters) - Lebanon's Hezbollah militant group is preparing for a possible war with Israel to relieve perceived Western pressure to topple Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, its guardian ally, sources close to the movement say.

COMMENT: Really? Hizbullah is telegraphing its intentions through the western media? Mariam Karouny of Reuters quotes "sources".....No wonder western media is rated in the same integrity bracket as politicians.
