But that does not matter, it is our fault that these people continue to attack and not allow Iraq to become a better country. It is them who do not let the Iraqi Gov't give their people the help they need. It is them who will not stop attacks and allow the Iraqi people to return to a normal life. If they could only stop fighting
You defend a man who has done worst things in 1 day than any president of the US in all their years in the White House. This is the most saddest thing I have ever come to understand from anyone. But I guess I can't expect anything less from people like you. <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center
Sorry if I dont pick up your pitchfork and torch. She is being penalized. But I do not think she deserves a life sentence. I dont defend her actions, but at the same time, I am not condemning her to a life of destitution because she made a mistake. She is paying for it. Let it go at that. She did not get into harvard, nor d
I posted an article and I find that there are multiple copies on the board. The program window showed that it was not able to process the page and I reposted it. I now find 8 copies of the same post.
The embedded journalists from the USA and UK are doing a great disservice to their own people by consciously hiding the untold suffering of the people of Iraq in the face of American occupation. The impact of the war and the insurgency have been devastating on women and children. It is really sickening to see fat well fed Iraqi men, Quislings all of them, appear on We
This blog was put up nearly a year ago. Now with Bush ratings coming down to 32% it reads so prohetic today. The American public have finally realised that Bush gave them onl;y war crony administration and a highly insensitive response to all important issues like immigration reform and social security. In November they will give a fitting response. TEACH BUSH AND THE BUSHMEN A LESSON.
I am sure that all of us agree on one thing: she did something unethical and has been punished. She has already paid a heavy price. Now surely a girl of 19 soes deserve another chance. Now she did not cheat to get to Harvard and so here Harvard education is not really the issue. I can see the point of view of those who are extremely harsh. At one level it is an immigrant fairy tale gone sour, horribly sour. Let us leave it at that. She may be old enoug
I have a 9 year old daughter. I hope she feels thae same way for me when she is 22.

What can you say of a girl of nineteen who took a single false step. That she is young. That she is ambitious. That she took a short cut to fame. Yes, you can say all this about a young Harvard sophomore called Kavyaaa Viswanathan, She is the only child a doctor parents who trained her from childhood to enter the portals of a great institution of higher learning--Harv
NOt surprising at all. In fact the US Dept of Defence has finally admitted that its troops are using excessive force in civillian areas of Baghdad. Kill first and then ask questions was the way the US Army was functioning. The Iraqis are now refusing to fire against their own people.
Where is Jeffrey Dahmer now? He was killed in prison a few years back.Quite franky, there was no way the man could have got the death penalty. The verdict is fair and he will live out his days in prison without parole.
More tham 45 years ago Dr Henry Kissenger wrote a book which is more relevant today than it was in 1958 when Harvatrd University published it. Entitled [I ]Nuclear Weapons and Foreign Policy[/I ]this book argued the provocative thesis that the Westphalia System of having the State with its monopoly on the coercive power represented by the army and the like will n
Iran is well on its way to making the nuclear bomb. No amount of wild rhetoric from the USA, UK and France is going to change the situation. Sanctions will not be accepted by the International community. The USA can try to pull an Iraq on Iran. Iran will retaliate by escalating the violence in Iraq and there is every apprehension that a war will break out in the Middle East. With the USA bogged down and bruised in Iraq it will be prudent on the part of
One solution, Singapore has found to moderate the flow of foreign workers is introduction of a levy system where the employer has to pay levy to the Government for each foreign worker hired, the level of levy being fixed based on the demand situation. If the demand is high, then the levy is lowered and when demand slackens, the l
It is interesting how the Seven Party Alliance has already put in place the Maoists agenda: First, it wanted the Chief Justice of Nepal to swear in the Prime Minister not the King. Second, the PM refused to take the oath as member of the Rajyaprishad, a kind of Privy Council. Third, the Maoists have given them only 3 months time. This time around the Seven Party Allinace will fall to the Maoists onslought.
The ones advocating this king of agressive language games are not doing the Mexicans within the US any good as this issue will only inflame even mainstream liberal Americans.
Interesting but impractical. The US Army cannot be used for domestic purposes. Why not just mine the borders and be rid of the problem of patroling it? This solution is not a civilised one. Therefore you have to find a politcal solution not a military one.Increasing the minimum wages and making some of the jobs attractive to Americans is the only way out.
German almost became the national language of the USA. I think German lost by a very narrow margin. Now an attempt is made to render the Star Spangled Banner in Spanish. Personally I do not find this new development cauing any degree of unease. However traditional American conservatives are out raged. Is there anuy thing wrong in siging the National Sonmg in Spanish
The third Chife of Staff has taken charge at the White House. Josh Bolten, an old Texas hand, has worked as a policy analyst with George W Bush even when the junoir Buish was a Governor. His brief seems to be simple: make sure all the scandals of "Scooter Libby, Karl Rove and the CIA leajk case, are all pushed under the carpet and ensure a smooth sailing for the prese
I think there is some problem with the program. But do not worry. Two points does not add up to much.
Now an update. As I predicted the King blinked and has appointed Girija Prasad Koirala the Prime Minister. The fact is that the people of Nepal do not want Monarchy and hence the word for Democracy is being changed from Prajatantra with its conotation of "subject" to Loktantra which has the essential meaning of peoples rule. The Monarch had hoped that the Seven Party Alliance will let him have a say in the running of the Administration or at least provide him a constitutional role. The Maoists w
Bush and the Bushmen have been a disaster not just for the Us but for the world. It is not a matter of kicking an Administration that is down but rather holdinng a band of neocons who plotted a war behind the backs of the American people,imposed graet suffering on the Iraqi people and even now is creating trouble in Iran. The world needs to be safe from that one weapon of mass destruction that is still loose--George W Bush.
Where would you place the greatest of all political thinkers Nicolo Machiavelli.
rom my understanding the KING could do as he damned well pleased, as long as he did not tread to heavily on the Churches feet. In parts of Western Europe where Roman Law was the dominant legal system, there were limitations imposed by law on the behaviour of the feudal aristocracy. Remember that the per
