U.N. Says Somalis Helped Hezbollah Fighters

Posted by Matt in November 17th, 2006

More than 700 Islamic militants from Somalia traveled to Lebanon in July to fight alongside Hezbollah in its war against Israel, a United Nations report says. The militia in Lebanon returned the favor by providing training and - through its patrons Iran and Syria - weapons to the Islamic alliance struggling for control of Somalia, it adds.

Poverty in Africa, the Middle East, and Europe
A slideshow of photos by my friend Saltadoros08. Originally I used the song "Gimme Shelter" by the Rolling Stones, but Youtube wouldn't allow it due to copyright infringement, so the song has been replaced by one by Giorgos Kazantzis, and actually I think it suits much better.

When I think of the Middle East (Horn of Africa, Caucasus, Northern Africa)...
Hi! So, I have like one friend from the Middle east, and he's a nice guy. I don't grill him on this culture a lot because I didn't think it would be polite. I work in customer service and talk with all kinds of people all day, and I found there is good and bad in every culture. It's kinda nice having that window! So these are just a few things I think of when I think of the Middle East(about the lesbian comment, I don't care if you are one. I just know there are a lot of smart-mouths on the net, so I was addressing them). I also think of Mesopotamia, the Pyramids at Giza, flesh-eating spiders, bartering, Mummies, the tower of Bable, Sheiks, and lots more. Point is, not every American immediately jumps to terrorism, and every culture has nifty items to contribute. Peace!

Christianity in the Middle East - Part 1 of 3
Overseas Council's (www.overseas.org) region of the Middle East encompasses the Arabic-speaking nations of the Middle East and North Africa, as well as Sudan, Turkey, Iran, Israel and Afghanistan. Despite the dominance of Islam, strong and ancient communities of Christians exist throughout the region. While these churches based in the ancient Christian population of the Middle East function openly in most parts of the Middle East, churches made up of converts from Islam face continual challenges. In most countries, legal penalties for religious conversion make public declaration of faith nearly impossible. Even in relatively open nations like Lebanon, social and family pressures make open conversion difficult or impossible. Even with these difficulties, it is estimated that the "Hidden"...
