“……… “This dialogue is going nowhere,” said Rafic Khoury, chief editor of the independent daily Al-Anwar, referring to national defence strategy talks that resumed on Tuesday at the presidential palace before being adjourned until March 15.“Hezbollah, as well as Syria and Iran, clearly stated recently their strategy of resistance against Israel,” he added.The talks, which were launched in 2006, have repeatedly been adjourned because of the successive political crises that have shaken Lebanon.The last round was held in June 2009.The stated aim is for Lebanon’s Western- and Saudi-backed majority and a coalition led by the Iranian- and Syrian-supported Shiite militant group to agree on a national defence strategy as concerns neighbouring enemy Israel…….Prior to the resumption of the talks on Tuesday, Hezbollah set the tone by saying its weapons were not open to discussion…..“No one is talking about disarming Hezbollah,” said Ammar Houry, a majority MP. “We want to come up with a solution whereby Hezbollah’s arsenal becomes part of an overall defence strategy overseen by the state.”….The daily Al-Akhbar, close to Hezbollah, summed up the situation on Tuesday with a headline that read “National dialogue: the play,” ….”

My article in Al-Akhbar: “International Woman’s Day? Why?”
PS There is a story to this article. A group of young feminists in Beirut, belonging to the group nasawiya, visited Al-Akhbar newspaper and offered (or asked) to take over the entire Al-Akkhbar issue for International Woman’s Day. Al-Akhbar only partly obliged and gave them a few pages (and cover page) to edit. I met members of the group back in Beirut in January and they interviewed me. They asked me to contribute to the section, and I of course obliged.
