ENGAGING HAMAS AND HIZBALLAH
By Ali Abunimah, The  Electronic Intifada, 29 October 2007

Nothing could be easier in the  present atmosphere than to
accuse anyone who calls for recognition of and  dialogue
with Hamas, Hizballah and other Islamist movements of
being  closet supporters of reactionary "extremism" or
naive fellow travelers of  "terrorists." This tactic is not
surprising coming from neoconservatives and  Zionists. What
is novel is to see it expressed in supposedly  progressive
quarters. EI cofounder Ali Abunimah  comments.

THEATRE REVIEW: "SUNLIGHT AT MIDNIGHT"
By  Natasha Tsangarides, The Electronic Intifada, 29 October 2007

Sunlight at  Midnight explores one man's existential crisis
as circumstances around him  force him to confront his
identity, his heritage, and his people's history.  Using
oral histories from Sabra and Shatila refugee camp,
television  footage, and live music, Sunlight at Midnight
successfully transports the  audience into the refugee
camps and back into one man's uncomfortable  psyche.
Natasha Tsangarides reviews for  EI.

AUDIO: CROSSING THE LINE SPEAKS WITH MEARSHEIMER AND  WALT
Podcast, Crossing the Line, 26 October 2007

This week on Crossing  The Line: In the second half of an
interview on Worldview on Chicago Public  Radio, host
Jerome McDonnell speaks with professors John Mearsheimer
and  Stephen Walt about their controversial paper that is
seen as very critical of  the pro-Zionist lobby AIPAC.
Since its publication in the London Review of  Books,
neo-conservative and Zionist supporters of Israel have
labeled both  men as anti-Semitic. Today we'll hear part
two of this two-part  interview.

A LIFE CUT SHORT
By Yassmin Moor, The  Electronic Intifada, 24 October 2007

Five-month-old Eyad is one of the  happiest babies I've
ever met. Barely touch his cheeks and he smiles  and
giggles; tickle his little belly and he bursts out in
laughter,  kicking his feet up in the air. Jamalat, his
mother, says his laughter is a  blessing from God for it
fills her heart with joy and takes away some of  her
heartbreak and sorrow. Yassmin Moor writes from Gaza.
