The Final Journey of Najma Ghouse
(1 comments)
Najma had prepared herself for this journey, she had jettisoned the anxiety, and cleared her mind from desiring to do a few more things or touch a few more lives. She accepted her role in the world and was content with what she had done. She was grateful to the creator for enriching her with a full spectrum of life experiences from serene bliss to utter sadness, loneliness to being loved, bad times to good times and fun times

With Friends like Bush, Israel doesn't need enemies.
(1 comments)
The Neocon gang talks peace, but doesn't mean it. Their plans have failed badly, and they still don't get it. They are no good for Israel, Palestine or America, their actions and words are the root cause of terror and turmoil in the world. The more they talk about terrorizing the little nations, the more dangerous they make it for Israel. With Friends like Bush, Israel doesn't need enemies.

With friends like Clinton, Israelis don't need enemies.
(1 comments)
With friends like Clinton, Jews don't need enemies. Her words fuel the anti-Semitic repressed sentiments among average Americans and certainly evoke anger in the Middle East; where as McCain fuels Islamophobia. Do we need these two to run our nation down? Absolutely not!

Ahmadiyya Muslims, what next?
The real issue is not about who is a Muslim, but it is about how the majorities treat their minorities.
Should the bad decisions of a few in the name of Islam, reflect on the Muslim community at large? Now, Indonesia is planning to ban the "heretical" Muslim sect, should that reflect on Islam? The least we can do is to speak up against the tyranny of one group of people against the other.

Yes we can bring peace to Gaza
(2 comments)
Israel owes peace and security to her citizens and it is directly dependent on the security and peace needs of the Palestinians. You cannot live in peace, when your neighbor's aren't. Finding a balance is the most difficult thing to do and both the nations are trying and failing. No wonder the phrase "love thy neighbor" plays such a crucial role in every society.

Hope for Pakistan
(3 comments)
She threatened the extremists, a dare move perhaps calculated to win the support of majority of moderates in Pakistan who want to live a normal life. They got to her before she could get them. Pakistan is ripe for democracy; a majority of her people believes in it. We cannot ambush terrorism with bombs; we can certainly dissolve it through dialogue, education and patience. We need a whole new generation into thinking

Religious Violence in Orissa, India
Eleven Churches have been razed to ground following a reported attack on Swami Laxmanananda Saraswati, a political party leader. Shamefully this is a normal thing in India and it needs to be stopped before it escalates.
