Perspectives from Israel

It's always interesting to read the perspectives on current events of people in other parts of the world, and three different pieces from the same news source, Israel News have caught my eye the last two days:

This article talks about Pope Benedict XVI's meeting with Muslim leaders this week and reveals the intractability of Christian-Muslim tensions.

This one lays out the similarities between Iranian President Ahmadinejad and U.S. President Bush.

Finally, this one looks at Israel's preoccupation with the Iranian threat and says only God can help the country. Two quotes struck me: "No one would dare do to a nuclear Iran what was done to Afghanistan and Iraq." And "Israel's true role in this affair is just to be a hostage. The great Satan's pet, the Big Brother's little sister, the one that will suffer several heavy blows if anyone lifts its hand at the Iranian bully."
