Al-Arabiya website hack was an inside job
If you understand how "Domain Names" work on the web then you will understand what I am saying here:

A former staff member of Al-Arabiya who registered the Al-Arabiya "domain name" with his name giving his address as the owner of the "alarabiya.net" by "Netsolution" through "Go Dady" is the start of the so called "Al-Arabiya hacked".

That explains why Al-Arabiya in the last few days changed the domain name from "alarabiya.net" to "alarabiya.tv".

The Saudi satellite TV thinks that the readers are idiots saying the hackers took the domain name. There is nothing called taking the domain name. Hackers can "hijack" the domain name but still it is registered with the owner's address. Reviving a hijacked domain name is a matter of minutes.

Hassan Nasrallah appointed his successor

Condoleezza Rice’s secret letter to Hamas
This is reported on Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Jarida:

The newspaper learned from Palestinian sources that the U.S. contacted Hamas through the United States embassy in Syria.

Condoleezza Rice's letter "praised" Hamas position of the truce with Israel in the Gaza Strip and Hamas position from the rocket launchers targeting Israeli cities and towns.

The letter comforts Hamas about the United States position from sending Arab forces to Gaza Strip saying hat the U.S. became convinced of the futility of this step.

According to the source, this letter came as an answer to Iran's letter to Hamas showing Iran's concerns about Hamas operation targeting the Palestinian Jihadi factions still targeting Israeli cities and towns.
