Blast in Southern Lebanon Village.

An explosion in a building believed to be linked to Hezbollah in southern Lebanon has killed at least one person, security officials said.

The blast is said to have destroyed a house near the port city of Tyre. Initial report said a Hezbollah official and his son were killed in munition explosion in the village. But Hezbollah later denied any deaths and said only one person had been injured in the explosion, report said.

Hezbollah is banned from conducting any military action in the area, under the terms of the UN ceasefire after a conflict with Israel in 2006.

Israeli Authorities have Destroyed Two Palestinian Structures, in Defiance of International Call to Stop such Actions.

Palestinian reports say a family of five was forcibly evicted from their home in the Beit Hanina district before the building was demolished. Israel bulldozers then destroyed the foundation of another building nearby.

UN officials have said such demolitions violate international law and raise serious international concerns. Israel said buildings subject to demolition orders have been built without permits.

british politics and the media...

Hi,
For those of you who are british and reading this article... you know the extent of influence the media has on british politics, there is not one day where we have some new contriversial issues that weaken publics trust in the goverment. I wish one day we could just have normal unbiased news. We sometimes dont even know if the news we are recieving is unbiased.. the media can choose to reveal some articles and not publish the others, thus influencing our opinion.
