Photo of the Day: Palestinian Bedouin outside Jerusalem, 1930
from Elia Photo Service via Mashriq Note that when this picture was taken the British counted roughly a million Palestinians in British Mandate Palestine, scheduled to achieve statehood as Palestine when the British left.

The Coming Drone Wars: Iran Unveils its own Drone, with a 1200-mile Range
It was foreseeable that when the United States began deploying drones wherever it likes, its rivals would also develop that capability. In fact, you wonder if sending the drones around doesn’t create an opportunity for others to capture them and reverse-engineer them. Iran captured a US Predator drone last winter and claimed to have gotten […]
Israel forces Gaza Children to Wade through Sewage as Creepy, Evil Blockade Continues
