THE DAY AFTER THE NAKBA
If it seemed like the funerals of those killed in the Nakba event went by with little fanfare, they did!
Iranian reactions were predictable, with the exception of Iran not really responding to Israel
The attached link gives an interesting twist to the Iranian / Hezbollah actions this weekend.
Another interesting follow on topic today dealt with the Syrian military and the continuing rumors of tensions / desertions in the ranks.
I am still convinced the movement of Tanks into the initial towns two weeks ago was more of a reaction to reported disserting units.
Knowing well armed troops, RPGs as an example, are dug in amongst the buildings would explain the Tank fire assaults.
If these rumors have truth, and I still believe they do, then the danger of a Secterian Civil War is well founded.
Ahmadinejad designating himself the interim Oil Minister is an interesting twist, especially with the pending OPEC meeting.
Having key senior leaders accuse him of being “Bewitched” is a bazaar event to say the least.
My guess is further tensions are going to take place this week.
Well; the simple fact of the matter is, if you leave your TV off for more than eight hours right now, you are going to miss something happening in the Middle East.
The heat of Summer is on the way and that is going to only add to the tensions.
