• An Iranian nuclear scientist was killed and another injured in bomb attacks this morning in Tehran. [WP]

• We now know a lot more about current diplomacy. Among the things we know: Arab states have been pushing America to bomb Iran. Much more later. [NYT]

• Iran announced that its first nuclear reactor, at Bushehr, will go online in late January. [JTA]

• Meanwhile, the Israeli-Palestinian “peace process” was shaken up by a Palestinian Authority paper’s denial that the Western Wall had a legitimate connection to Jewish history, and Prime Minister Netanyahu’s retort. [NYT]

• How Saad Hariri has held onto power in Lebanon even as future indictments in his father’s killing threaten to prompt instability or a coup. Namely: By kissing up to Syria and Iran. [WP]

• Irene Klass, who published The Jewish Press, died at 94. [JTA]

    Arafat (The nobel peace prize winner) himself denied that the Jews had any connection to the wall. Let’s not forget that Arafat’s successor’s PhD thesis topic was entitled: “The Other Side: The Secret Relationship Between Nazism and the Zionist Movement”.Can we now conclude that the Palestinians aren’t really interested in a peace agreement or will we keep playing let’s pretend? You forgot to mention the poll results from last week that most Palestinians view a two-state solution as a first step to eliminating Israel.
    Sometimes it’s very unpleasant to face the truth.

    I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)
