"Egyptian gas supply resumes to Jordan but not to Israel" The Israelis keep telling us, and themselves, that the problems are 'technical'.

"Libya and the World Left" (via the Angry Arab). Spot on. Frankly, Gaddafi could be the kindest, nicest, most progressive dictator in the world, but he is still a dictator - I think recent events have put paid to any thoughts to the contrary - and the Arab people want to be free of dictators.

My favorite story of the week: "'Gaddafi funded Sarkozy's election bid'" Sarko is an ingrate with lousy intelligence (betting on the wrong horse).

Note how they picked a secret service agent so huge that he completely shields Hillary.  Also note how far away the Egyptians are (she must be waiving to another U. S. government official, or at least the cameraman).
