  Thursday, March 11, 2010
News Resources - North America, Europe, and Asia:

  • Biden Says Peace Talks Must Resume
    U.S. Vice President Joe Biden says there must be no delay in resuming Mideast peace talks, despite a row over Israeli plans for new homes in Jerusalem. In a speech at Tel Aviv University, Biden repeated his criticism of the timing of the building decision, but praised the response of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the controversy. He also stressed that the U.S. had "no better friend in the community of nations than Israel" and that their relationship was "impervious to any shifts in either country."  (BBC News)

    The U.S. is trying to choke off the 130,000 barrels a day of gasoline that Iran imports because it lacks adequate refining capacity. But oil industry sources said that Iranian front companies were securing gasoline supplies from Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Bahrain, and that some companies in Iraq were making purchases on Iran's behalf. "All you are doing is transferring sales from one company to another," said a trader in Kuwait. (Washington Post)
  • European Parliament Backs UN Report on Gaza War - Slobodan Lekic

    Israel Foreign Ministry spokesman Yigal Palmor said: "It is remarkable that all EU members have not supported the different phases of the Goldstone process, either at the UN Human Rights Council or at the General Assembly, yet the European Parliament thinks it can afford the luxury of an irresponsible and irrelevant resolution on a report that was immoral to begin with, and in complete detachment from prevailing EU policies."  (Jerusalem Post)
