Inside Story - Obama's Middle East policy - Nov 10 - Part 1
America's drive to conclude a Middle East peace deal before President George Bush leaves office in January was always going to be wildly over-optimistic but Barack Obama is likely to set an equally pressing deadline to finish the job.
Barack Obama says he'll reshape US foreign policy with particular emphasis on the Middle East. He promises to put the Israeli-Palestinian conflict back on the American agenda. He blames the Bush administration for having neglected the issue. But is his position really that different? And is he free to change foreign policy?

Higher Education in the Middle East and the Next Generation of Arab Leaders
Google Tech Talks
May, 22 2008
ABSTRACT
Higher education is changing rapidly in the Middle East with the establishment of new U.S. campuses in the Gulf Emirates and the new King Abdullah University of Science and Technology in Saudi Arabia.

These changes are crucial to the future economic, societal and political development in the region.

Middle East Update - Iran Test Fires Missiles (rockets) BibleOrTraditions
(RTTNews, July 8, 2008) - Iran has threatened to attack Israel and the U.S. navy in the Gulf as its first response to any attack on its nuclear sites, media reports quoting a senior aide to supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said Tuesday.
"The first U.S. shot on Iran would set the United States' vital interests in the world on fire," said Ali Shirazi, who is Khamenei's representative to the naval forces of the elite Revolutionary Guards. He said that Tel Aviv and the U.S. fleet in the Persian Gulf would be the targets that would be set on fire in Iran's crushing response.

Live Export & Animals Australia's Middle East Investigations
Over the past 30 years Australia has exported over 150 million animals to the Middle East for slaughter, where there is no legal protection from animal cruelty. Animals Australia's five investigations in the region have consistently shown, that despite industry claims of 'improvements' in animal welfare, the cruel handling, transport and slaughter of millions of Australian Animals is widespread and routine.
This ten minute documentary takes us to seven different Middle Eastern countries and reveals the brutal truth behind live animal export.
Please help us to end this trade in misery. Visit http://www.AnimalsAustralia.org

The Tallest Building in the World - Burj Dubai! Middle East
I went to the Burj Dubai and filmed the construction and then again six months later.
66 to 124 floors in six months!
The Burj Dubai tower is designed to be the centerpiece of a large-scale, mixed-use development that will include 30,000 homes, nine hotels, 6 acres of parkland, 19+ residential towers, the Dubai Mall, and a large man-made lake. The complete 500 acre development will cost about $20 billion dollars (US). Once completed, the tower will cover a total of over 22 million square feet of development.
The official height of the Burj Dubai is kept secret because of international competition, but current estimates have it rising to a height in excess of 2,600 feet. Some estimate that it will be 189 floors or so - it is to be the tallest building in the world.
Recently, the...

The broader Middle East region is facing a complex landscape of insecurity in 2008, where any one of a number of linked issues could trigger a major conflict. In addition to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and Iran are enduring epicentres of concern. The upcoming US elections may give rise to fresh strategies to secure stability in the region.
What are the key ingredients of any revised strategy to secure peace in the region in 2008 and beyond?
