The weekend is here, and it’s time for the usual links. (Can you tell I am tired from my biking exploits?)

Here they are:

• Are Assad’s forces on the verge of collapse?
• British Jewry’s Islamist problem
• Gaza’s solar energy and other Gaza news you won’t find in the mainstream media
• Mounties nab Canadian woman, 27, in webcam hack shenanigans bust
• Tracking illegal Arab construction, one EU funded house at a time

Shabbat Shalom!
