The Mideast death dance
Hamas and Hezbollah, Lebanon and Palestine, Syria and Iran, the U.S. and Israel: Unless these four pairs of actors turn away from their failed policies, the Middle East will sink further into violence and despair.
By Rami G. Khouri [2006-07-15]

  • I expected to read a Balanced Article...

    ..and was hoping to see the glaring issues that ALL sides have but this was just another Anti-Israel piece that seems to be the norm.

    "The way to break this cycle is for all actors to negotiate a political solution that responds to their legitimate grievances and demands. Everyone involved seems prepared to do this, except for Israel and the United States, who rely on military force, prolonged occupations, and diplomatic sanctions and threats."

    Except for Israel and the United States? Are you serious? I don't even know how to respond to this. Maybe you should re-read that part where you said that all enemies of Israel still support it's destruction? If that's not an illegitmate grievance I don't know what is.

    I wish Salon would get back to the great stories they had in the past, where one could see multiple sides of an issue and not this biased reporting that does nothing to solve the situation or educate the public to form an appropriate opinion.
