The hindu extremist groups in jammu have enforced an economic blockade of kashmir valley which has resulted in a famine-like situation in Indian-held Kashmir. So what is the road ahead? Read this article.
The hero label is possibly the most ambiguous term in the English language. Recently I mentioned in a speech to some fellow Republicans that Thomas Edward Lawrence, Dian Fossey, and Paul David Wellstone were my heroes only to have the expressions of those in attendance change from being interested to being indifferent.

Perhaps it might be time to offer a balanced perspective on patriotism and America. Is there a significant problem anywhere in the world with a global scope that America is not implied as a “country of interest”?
Fear and anxiety have been crucial elements in any general's strategy since the dawn of time. The Assyrian empire was reputedly formed through the use of generous amounts of terror and brutality.

In 2003 I wrote an article about high gas prices in North America. Here we are on the cusp of 2007 and the price at the pump is vastly higher.

The usual rational bandied about by people suffering under high prices is the idea that the oil and gas companies themselves are fixing the pricing system.
As of the suburbs of Kabul, the Afghan State disappears. One finds nothing any more but lords of the war who control like absolute monarchs, take taxes don't apply the directives of the central government. Even in the capital, one does not know who controls: president Hamid Karzaď and his government? The American ambassador Zalmay Khalizad, this Afghano-American parachuted by Washington? Or the international troops which, with 6,000 men, square all the districts length into broad?
