The Emptying of Baalbek Is a Moment to Take Stock
“Large numbers of people continue to flee their homes every day, as Israel’s military operations in Lebanon have been going on unabated.” These disturbing words could be from almost any news report about Israel’s invasion of its northern neighbour over the past month. However, they can be found in a report by the Norwegian Refugee Council’s Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre issued on July 27, 2006.

A Future Without Hezbollah
At the end of September, when Israel’s campaign to destroy Hezbollah was reaching its height, I met one of the group’s supporters in a seaside café in western Beirut. He was a middle-aged man with a thin white beard and the spent look of someone who had not slept for days. He was an academic of sorts, not a fighter, but his ties to Hezbollah were deep and long-standing.

PSG Intensify Talks for Sergio Ramos
Paris Saint-Germain are determined to try and land Sergio Ramos on a free, once his contract at Real Madrid comes to an end on June 30.
Real Madrid president Florentino Perez made clear that Los Blancos wanted to keep hold of their captain, but by the time he came to accept their offer of a one-year contract extension, it was too late.
Now, according to L'Equipe, talks between Ramos' camp and PSG have intensified in the last few days, with the two sides not too far away from reaching an agreement.
However, as was the case with Real Madrid, Ramos' desire for a two-year contract has been a stumbling block.
PSG had initially offered the 35-year-old a one-year deal, but he is adamant that he wants to sign a contract that will keep him at his next club for the next two seasons.
