The Francop, an Antigua-flagged freighter, carried nearly 60 tons of arms and explosives from Iran, apparently destined for Hezbollah in Lebanon. It sailed in violation of UN resolutions at both ends-Iran is forbidden to export arms and Hezbollah is forbidden to import them. ...

As Vali Nasr has pointed out, we are now facing Shia revivalism in the Middle East-Persian Gulf region paradoxically. The invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan has been a threat to Israel's national security, and has also been of great benefit to Iran. Why? Because Iran's strategic threat and neighbour (the Sunni oriented Ba'ath Party under Saddam ... Read MoreHussein) has now been decimated. Hence, the Iran-Iraq War which formerly helped stifle Iran's regional hegemony. Furthermore, Afghanistan has also had the Sunni oriented Taliban removed from power (albeit that The Taliban are still rife, but now as a non-state force arguably). The Taliban were going to wage a war with Iran in 1998 and were also a straegic threat to Iran. Consequently, both Iraq and Afghanistan now have Shia regimes more friendly to Iran, than the Sunnis were. Thus, a potential Afghani-Iraqi-Iranian axis. My strategy in the War on Terrorism would have been to ally with Afghanistan and Iraq first in order to continue their destabilisation process against Iran, and then post Iran, we cold have made our strategic moves on Iraq and Afghanistan. Comments please?

I think the issue Yehudah is that much of the strife in Afghanistan is being triggered from Pakistan's Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) agency. The problem is that Pakistan has 100 nuclear bombs, is the base of al-Qaeda and has a ground army that is now larger than America's.

I tend to agree with Paul Wolfowitz Defence Planning Guidance (DPG) policy back in 1992. He called back then for most of the Middle East-Persian Gulf region to be steam-rolled. We could have finished Iraq off back then and moved on to the other rogue states. The problem now is (because of having to wait for nine liberal years until 9/11), we are ... Read Morefaced with an energy and economic crisis. It makes it all so much harder now with these two obstacles to complete Wolfowitz' DPG policies. Thanks George Bush Snr and Bill Clinton for getting us into this mess and it will be furthered under Obama-geddon.

[The Nobel Committee gave the Peace Prize to President Obama because he can visualize a world without nuclear weapons -or because he isn't President Bush. Big deal. Since they gave it to Yasser Arafat, it hasn't been worth "a bucket of warm spit," to paraphrase John Nance Garner.]

Hahaha they gave it to Jimmy Carter too. I urge people to look at Carter's policies with the Mujahideen in Afghanistan. He was hardly worthy of a peace prize.
