STOP THE PRESSES: HARIRI TRIBUNAL IMPASSE RESOLVED

It is over.  The entire affairs has been resolved.  The New York Times--no less--orders Najib Miqati to arrest the four accused Hizbullah members at once.  As is known, New York Times orders are quickly implemented in the Middle East.  But this arrogance of the paper has to be interrogated: imagine if a Lebanese newspaper writes an editorial ordering the US government to arrest some four Americans.  This mentality is purely colonialist: the New York Times figures that operating outside of a major city in the capitalist center gives it an international authority.  How silly.  The arrogance of American Zionists knows no bounds.
