Hezbollah's ceasefire spin: A master class in turning defeat into victory
The ink on the Lebanon-Israel ceasefire had barely dried when Hezbollah's leader Sheikh Naim Kassem took to the airwaves, not to welcome peace, but to claim triumph.
Jordan's foreign minister Ayman Safadi said on Sunday Israel was implementing a systematic policy of pushing Palestinians out of Gaza by a war that has killed thousands of civilians.

Jordan's foreign minister Ayman Safadi said on Sunday Israel was implementing a systematic policy of pushing Palestinians out of Gaza by a war that has killed thousands of civilians.
In remarks at a conference in Doha, Safadi, whose country borders the West Bank and had absorbed the bulk of Palestinians after Israel's creation in 1948, also said Israel had created an "amount of hatred " that would "haunt the region" and "define generations to come ».
This is not the first time that the Jordanian official claims that Israel wants to expel Palestinians from Gaza.
However, that is not the objective. Israel's goal is to dismantle the political and military infrastructure of Hamas before laying the groundwork for reconstruction in the Gaza Strip along with its population.
