I found this infographic on relationships in the Middle East hugely useful in understanding some of the roots of the current conflict in Lebanon and the tangled web of influence and hostility in the region. I don't think I had quite grasped how much hatred and distrust exists, not only between Jews and Arabs, but between the different Islamic groups and regional powers.
Found via Information Aesthetics, which has a selection of further infographics on the conflict.
