Pepe Escobar explains clashes between US-backed government and Hezbollah-led opposition

Wednesday May 14th, 2008

Clashes between supporters of the US-backed government and the Hezbollah-led opposition have shaken Lebanon. Six days of deadly sectarian bloodshed is the worst violence in the country since the end of the 15-year civil war in 1990. The Real News Network analyst Pepe Escobar examines what is happening in Lebanon.

Based in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Pepe Escobar writes The Roving Eye for Asia Times Online. He has reported from Iraq, Iran, Central Asia, US and China. He is the author of the recently published Red Zone Blues. Pepe is a regular analyst for The Real News Network.

3. Real news is right.

Escobar's analysis is a concise, fair assessment of the situation
in Lebanon.

I believe he is right when he states that eventually all parties
will come to table to work towards a solution.

There is no winner take all, here.

Excellent video-
