With the current situation of world politics, for some strange reason I have been humming this old Guns n Roses tune, being reminded of the Unites States of America every time.

I used to love her
But I had to kill her
I knew I`d miss her
So I had to keep her
She`s buried right in my backyard....

Pope says -- NO TO WAR

````No to war!`` Pope John Paul said in an address Monday.

``What are we to say of the threat of a war which could strike Iraq, the land of the Prophets, a people already sorely tried by more than 12 years of embargo?``.

Media is a tool for rallying people for your cause. Whether you like him or not Limbaugh has done a great job rallying conservatives in USA. Al Qaida has used media to propagate their message quite effectively.

As far as incumbents being re-elected please go back to 1994.

In reading the Qureishi`s drivel, keep in mind that he first came to our attention by ``explaining`` that we were too naive and stupid to understand headlines like:

Freedom Fighters kill 7 in Wedding Party in J&K

which are routinely run in his paper. This genius explained that only ``sophisticated`` people could understand these things (why murderers should be called freedom fighters in a newspaper) and besides everyone did the same thing.

This article therefore comes as a no suprise. Only ``sophisticated`` people (i.e. people who prefer the narrowest ideology over facts) will find it reasonable. The rest of us will find it 2-faced and a mindless attack on the great satan. At least the jihadis are more honest than this type of person....
