A world on fire makes compelling case for west's leaders to sit round G7 table

When the G7 meets in Canada today it will be the 51st gathering since its foundation. But there will be no polite applause from the gallery.

Iran's nuclear brinkmanship cannot mask a regime in decline Jack Straw

Iran and Israel were not always enemies. During the Iran-Iraq war (1980-1988), Israel was the only reliable and consistent western supplier of materiel to the Iranians.
