Guardian Unlimited Obituaries Rafik Hariri Many say he used his time as prime minister to grab hundreds of acres of central Beirut for the construction firm of which he was the majority shareholder and from which he profited while leaving the country with huge debts. Supporters of Rafik Hariri, who was assassinated today in a bomb blast in central Beirut, believe he was a much-needed driving force who rebuilt bombed-out Beirut after the 1975-1990 civil war and put the country back on its feet, both economically and politically. It owns, or has owned, almost all of the central district of the capital and his critics argue he abused his position to seize the land for his firm from its myriad former owners. www.guardian.co.uk /obituaries/story/0,3604,1414586,00.html   (907 words)

Augustine in Algeria: travelers' tales This is the most prominent hotel in the city -- literally, inasmuch as it stands on a dominating height overlooking the heart of the city and can be seen as soon as you come into the central harbor district.

Zionism And Its Impact By Ann M. Lesch After the coup d'etat by the Young Turks in 1908, the Palestinians used their representation in the central parliament and their access to newly opened local newspapers to press their claims and express their concerns. When a Zionist Congress resolution in 1905 called for increased colonization, the Ottoman regime suspended all land transfers to Jews in both the Sanjak of Jerusalem and the Wilayat (province) of Beirut.
