"Top blog/Renato Obeid's World/Today's pick: This rambling weblog is worth reading not so much for its satirical posts but more for its insight into the minutiae of life in Lebanon, including the etiquette of road accidents and how to hire a taxi.”

LIVE
AMERICA VOTES 2004
- live coverage of the US Presidential campaign
Britain has agreed to an American request to send "targets" to Baghdad, British Defence Secretary Geoff hoon announced today.
The troops will be redeployed from Basra as soon as logistics are determined and no later than Election Day (November 2nd).
The ostensible reason, given by the Americans, for the request is that it would "free up more American troops to fight insurgents" (CNN)…insurgents like Democratic challenger John Kerry who questioned why America was paying ninety percent of the costs of the Iraq war and sustaining ninety percent of the casualties.
