Truth and understanding
The Media Line's intrepid correspondents are in Israel, Gaza, Lebanon, Syria and Pakistan providing first-person reporting.

Mohamed likely will be released but forced to leave the country, according to reports. Kuwait does not have diplomatic relations with Israel. Morocco and Israel established diplomatic ties late last year.
Following the release of the music video, Mohamed received a torrent of death threats, though hundreds of comments posted to the video on YouTube in Hebrew, English and Arabic were largely supportive.
