Muslim Brotherhood is running propaganda for Hezbollah? I'm not at all surprised but it deserves a closer look. The non-state actor allegiances are as likely to form as state allegiances. Their enemy’s enemies are apparently their friends.

Iranian textbooks are absolutely preparing Iranian children for war. This too is not surprising by deserves more exposure. The Iranian state uses all that it has to support the expansion of the Islamic Revolution. The textbook is an important tool for the fascists to firmly establish the concept of Supreme Leadership. This is empire building at its best. Dominating the entire third world is a new take however…

Good post! I would appreciate it if you ping me in the future when you post these.

Many thanks. I have forwarded your feedback to our guests, who will no doubt be appreciative.

Indeed, the informal alliance that has grown between Shi'a and Sunni radicals is alarming. I have been reviewing radical Sunni Web sites and message boards in Indonesia and they are all rallying behind Hezbollah and Hamas. Hundreds of thousands of dollars have been donated to the Palestinian and Lebanese embassies and there are claims that mujahid have already been sent to the Middle East.

The world is turning upside down and it's not just the threats originating from the Middle East that we should worry about.
