New revelations show that the chief Saudi spy, Prince Bandar bin Sultan is pushing ahead a campaign of persecution against Christians in Syria.
Although the world is yet to react to this, it seems that Saudi rulers will soon have something new on their hands to worry about. This could be of particular significance, given that Riyadh will have to bear the brunt of any consequences for Prince bin Sultan\'s adventurism.

A pledge to punish Tel Aviv; the leader of Lebanon\\\\\\\'s resistance movement Hezbollah accuses Israel of assassinating one of its senior commanders. Hassan Nasrallah says the group will punish those behind the killing of its members.
Nasrallah was referring to the December 4 assassination of Hezbollah\\\\\\\'s senior commander Hassan Laqqis. He added that all evidence points to Israel\\\\\\\'s role in the killing. Nasrallah also rejected Arab media reports about his movement\\\\\\\'s casualties in Syria, describing them as part of the psychological warfare against the resistance. Nasrallah also said the war in Syria is not a sectarian one between Shias and Sunnis. According to Nasrallah, all Takfiri and Salafi militants who are fighting in Syria share the al-Qaeda ideology.

What is behind the surprise Saudi decision to provide 3 billion dollars worth of military aid to the Lebanese army?
The announcement of this decision was recently made by Lebanese president Michel Suleiman, after Saudi King Abdullah and French president Francois Hollande apparently agreed on the issue during their summit in Riyadh. The deal says Paris is to play the role of the military supplier, while Riyadh will take care of the financing. No one has so far mentioned that the military aid could be used to deter Israel. Tel Aviv has launched wars on Lebanon ever since its existence but no such military aid has ever been granted to Lebanon. Moreover Israeli officials have not made any objections to this announcement. Hence the logical, widespread conclusion is that this step targets Hezbollah. In a recent visit by Suleiman to Riyadh, the Saudi Monarch reportedly called for the Lebanese army to stop Hezbollah from joining the fight in Syria. Many experts believe that this is a Saudi reaction to the role Hezbollah has played in thwarting Riyadh\\\'s agenda of toppling Syrian president Bashar Assad. Saudi Arabia\\\'s Lebanese allies in the March 14 movement appeared to confirm this view, with members of the movement describing this declaration as a blow to Hezbollah. Meanwhile, the designated supplier of the military aid, France, is believed to be the main force behind the recent E-U decision to blacklist the military wing of Hezbollah. Saudi Arabia is eager to escalate its campaign against Hezbollah, perhaps showing Washington that it can seek support elsewhere. France meanwhile welcomes the 3 billion dollar package, as it\\\'s trying to find ways to boost its austerity-hit economy. Now the main question is whether the deal could possibly change the Lebanese\\\'s anti-Israeli doctrine into an anti-Hezbollah stance?

Syrian opposition sources say that hardly any insurgents from the al-Qaeda-affiliated group, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant are left in the northern city of Aleppo. The UK based Observatory for Human Rights says ISIL militants withdrew from the Inzarat neighborhood of Aleppo after clashes with militants from the so-called Free Syrian Army and other insurgent groups. The Observatory says the foreign-backed F-S-A had earlier overrun the I-S-I-L\'s headquarters in the city. The bodies of at least 42 people executed by I-S-I-L were reportedly found at the base. Meanwhile, some reports suggest that the ISIL has taken the upper hand against the FSA in the city of Raqqah. The al-Qaeda-linked group is said to be in control of several key positions in the city. A large number of people, including civilians, have been killed during the infighting.

Abbas Araqchi even cited the increasing number of visits to Tehran by international business delegations as evidence for his comment. Araqchi says the visits show there is a growing willingness from the outside world to enter the Iranian market. He says the cracks in the sanctions regime against the Iranian nation have emerged despite the fact that Iran is keeping the main structure of its peaceful nuclear energy program. Araqchi, who\'s Iran\'s deputy foreign minister, says Iran is not obliged under the Geneva deal with world powers to dismantle any part of its nuclear energy facilities. The official says Iran has achieved what it wanted in its nuclear energy activities. He says Iran only needed to stop unnecessary costs, and that, he says, was materialized as a result of the Geneva deal which was reached in November.
