Last week’s hotel bombings in Amman, Jordan has again focussed international attention on reputed terror king-pin, Abu Musab al Zarqawi and his elusive organization, the so-called al Qaeda in Iraq.

Loretta Napoleoni is an Italian economist and writer specializing in terrorist financing. She’s the author of several books, including ‘Terror Incorporated: Tracing the Dollars Behind the Terror Networks,’ and the recently released, ‘Insurgent Iraq: Al Zarqawi and the New Generation.’

And; over-shadowed by the Iraq occupation, the situation in Occupied Palestine continues to fester. Despite Israel’s much touted withdrawal of settlements from the Gaza Strip, life is not getting any easier for Palestinians, who are yet prisoners in their own land with little hope on the horizon for the long-awaited establishment of a sovereign state.

Jon Elmer is a Canadian journalist and founder of the news website, ‘From Occupied Palestine.org’
