Today

``If there ever was a meaning
If there ever was a wish
So immortal, impractical and so blind
It could leave the one of us
Crippled for life -
A wrong wouldn’t feel so right, like it does, today.``

i like this bit :)

Psychology of Suicide ’Bombers’
Posted by notre_dame Aug 23, 2006 05:35 am
disappointer! as a psychiatrist you could have gone deeper, no? we all know suicide bombers are resentful and so on. more than the suicide bombings in say palestine or iraq, id like to hear about what causes it in pakistan or india. the psychology of people living in a a state of war is very different from someone trying to commit such acts in a relatively stable state (not getting into the details of political stability in India and Pakistan). any thoughts?

The Jews, Israel, and the Middle East
Posted by notre_dame Aug 12, 2006 11:39 am
interesting insight. ofcourse one could blame the other side or one could find faults with oneself. truth is, failure just hurts. Muslims are just sliding in this scene. ofcourse, theyre not to blame entirely, but true, Godot, one could learn alot from the adversary. whether or not jews are adversaries to Muslims - thats worth some fair thought too.
and despite all, muslims are not great at politics or at keeping peace. i wonder what makes muslims so temperamental and jumpy when it comes to politics. one needs to understand the power games. sun tzu should be read more widely :)
Rage of Angels

wasnt that unfair use of govt car? frankly, cars with green number plates only get scowls and hate remarks. they get away with breaaking traffic rules, their drivers are almost always discourteous and add nuisance to the roads. their attitude is simply that of outlaws. and the fact that the author had to borrow his friend`s car to get to his port hassle-free, also reinforces this. the corpses are beginning to stink already
What Happened to Zidane?
Posted by notre_dame Jul 13, 2006 03:23 am
``And I don`t regret anything that happened, I accept it.`` (zidane)
Materazzi got what he asked for. Italians got the cup but zidane`s still high on the popularity poll.
His apology was directed to his fans, not the Italian team or FIFA. Also he didnt challenge the referee`s decision. A hero`s gotta do what he`s gotta do. bon courage zidane =)
That Whore

you`re a gifted writer with incredibly deep sight. just a brief observation...you did find her her sun, but took it away too. what started off as divine generosity could hurt like hell too. still, keeping moral judgements aside, to those not acquainted with the methods of love, the pull of the sun spells destruction itself. but its never not worth the journey :)
