The Inter Press Service, an international press agency that appears to tilt some to the left, offers this story on the Bush administration’s approach to the Lebanon crisis. The gist is that the administration has taken sides, offering some humanitarian aid while also contributing to the conflict’s continuance.

IPS also offers this analysis, explaining how the conflict in Lebanon and the war in Iraq are eroding American credibility and isolating moderate Arab governments, emboldening groups like Hezbollah.

Not a pretty picture, to say the least.

The situation in Lebanon and Israel does not seem to be getting any better, but no one wants to take a step back, to stop fighting and talk. It is truly sad.

I wanted to alert readers that The Blog of South Brunswick is now up and running. The blog, also sponsored by The South Brunswick Post, is designed to offer readers of the Post and residents of South Brunswick an opportunity to comment on local issues, as well as what’s going on around the state, the nation and the world.

The blog will be moderated — readers who want to post will have to e-mail their posts to me at hkalet@pacpub.com and I will post them as quickly as I can. I’ll also be asking various local residents to offer longer blog commentaries.

So get involved.
