Beirut remains the snag in the "New Electoral Law" deliberations in Doha

مراسل الجزيرة بن جدو: العقدة الحقيقية الان هي قانون الانتخاب وتحديداً بما يتعلق بتقسيم بيروت............ المفاوضات الان جدية وحثيثة وربما يتم الاتفاق على شيء ما الليلة وبشكل مفاجئ

The Saudis are scuttling all attempts to reach a compromise: The hope is that the United States will 'assist' its allies in Lebanon (and elsewhere in the Middle East) in the period that separates us from the ....'Guns of August' maybe?! At no time were the US stooges in Lebanon (and the Saudis to a lesser extent) more sure of a debilitating Iran strike!

I know DEBKA is not world reknowned for its accuracy but according to them it was not Iran that was meant to be hit.

What else is new? Since '83 they have underestimated the new Arab order, the pan-nationalist leaders who do not covet power and wealth but honour and freedom. they are so used to dealing with the corrupt and corruptible they cant get their heads round this.

Which I suppose is good.As long as they continue to underestimate, the less likely they are to accomplish their agenda
