Pigs, Jews & War, Fronts in the clash of civilizations, NRO
I am fascinated by this idea of wrapping dead terrorists in pigskin
and lard. This is what the Russians — who understand far better than
Americans how to deter Muslim terrorists — are doing with Chechen terrorists.
This tactic was first invented in the Sudan by crafty British colonials who
wanted to deter suicide attacks. It apparently worked quite well. Since then,
Islam's enemies have fallen back on the tried-and-true powers of fatback more
than once. I can't find an article about it, but I do recall reading that
there were riots in India over rumors that Hindu troops had dipped their
bullets in pork in order to not only kill Muslims, but ensure that they would
never collect their final reward

Islamism, fascism and terrorism (Part 1), ATimes
Links between neo-Nazis and the radical ideology of Islamism have
surfaced since the terrorism of 9/11 - an event that was celebrated by both
groups. But fascism and Islamism have an 80-year history of collaboration
based on shared ideas

Identifying Issues, Pioneer
We are a nation of great debtors. We are a nation of great talkers.
We are great at drafting plans. Yet in the comity of nations, we rank among
last few places in terms of productivity. Something needs to be understood
about the way we are and more important than that, something needs to be done
about it.

I work for Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP), the largest
and the only non political student movement in India. ABVP has organised a
massive rally on 26th november, 2002 on Indian Parliament in which 1,50,000
students from all over India will be participating. More importantly, all
will be coming to delhi with their own money. the rally has been organised to
voice students demands on the issues of Indianisation of Education, Course
restructuring, Financial Condition of Education, Autonomy, and Unemployment.
The article is a short run of the current educational condition of india.

By Francois Gautier. If only India could have its own Vladimir Putin!
A man who has the courage to take hard decisions and face the consequences.
Mr Putin must have been a lonely man: The Western powers were as usual
pressuring him not to....

I tried and failed, Guardian
Last week veteran Russian war correspondent Anna Politkovskaya
walked into a Moscow theatre to speak to the leader of the Chechen terrorists
who had seized it. Her job was to try to save the hostages - and nothing in
her long career had prepared her for it

The open secrets of Saddam's inbox, BBC
Anyone who thinks they can send private e-mails to Iraqi President
Saddam Hussein unnoticed by the outside world should think again. Journalists
from the American website Wired.com say they have found an easy way to access
the Iraqi leader's inbox, taking advantage of security holes in software used
by the country's official internet service provider.

The cost of a war that wasn't, Rediff
India"s decision to withdraw troops from the international border
without meeting the central aim of ending cross-border terrorism and stopping
infiltration amounts to a failure of its strategy to raise the cost for
Pakistan for waging a jihad.
