BAD NEWS

Opinion/Editorial: Palestine on the brink of civil war?
Nigel Parry, The Electronic Intifada, 15 December 2006

Palestinians are reeling from a century of systematic
destruction of their way of life at every possible level.
Instead of pouring gasoline on the fire, as the
US-Israel-Fatah coalition has been doing, and instead of
debating the price of petrol, as the international
community has busied itself with throughout the entire
history of this conflict, we need to recognize that
events are fast reaching the straw breaking the camel's
back moment. Few seem to grasp that 'business as usual'
in the Middle East can only be destined to lead to more
suffering, death, and loss of hope, and that the time to
act was yesterday.

LIGHT RELIEF

Multimedia Blog: Photos: The New Jazz Puppy
Nigel Parry, December 14th, 2006

So it has been a really shitty year all round. While
working 24/7 managing Gaza news coverage in late June and
early July, Israel opened up a second front against
Lebanon, necessitating the launch of a dedicated site,
Electronic Lebanon. "Israel stole my summer" was the cry
among many activists. After two months of that it was
time to wind it down, but it's been non-stop work since
then. The Roo Dog, cheated from several weeks of long
walks during the worst of it, needed some
compensation....
