Politics, News & Issues > Bush Administration Judging George Bush's performance as president

America has at last reached the end of the Bush era. The Americans made a bad mistake in electing such a clueless incompetent to be president the first time (in preference to Al Gore) and a far worse one in re-electing him for a second term. History will judge them harshly for these mistakes which have cost them and the worl... More..

Politics, News & Issues > International Politics (Other) An overview world-wide human rights violations

Do we really believe in Democracy? One cannot help doubting it, looking at what is happening around the world. The power of self-interest at personal, national and international levels far outweighs any idealism that we may profess in the matter. The fact that any resource in this world is limited means that allowing everyon... More..

Politics, News & Issues > Presidential Elections 2008 US elections 2008: Why to choose Obama over McCain

The choice before the Americans is so stark that it is surprising that there is a contest at all. Obama and Biden offer such an obviously superior team to that of McCain and Palin. The former surely appeals to not only the liberal, open-minded and erudite section of the population but also to those who have recognized the se... More..

Religion & Spirituality > Islam Are modern Muslim fatwas (religious orders issued by leaders of Islam) fueling Islamic extremism? Smallicon
13 of 28

The uproar among Muslims over public expressions of criticism of Islam and the prophet Mohammad is more deplorable than the criticisms themselves. It exposes the rigidity and intolerance that pervades the Muslim faith. Religion is ultimately a personal matter and its descent into a social barrier between people is to be depl... More..

Arts & Humanities > Dance Styles Commentary: A critique of Bollywood dancing
1 of 2

Have you seen Bollywood dancing ? No ? Well, you should and you will either be fascinated (may be even addicted) and join the ranks of millions who already are or you will be so disgusted that you will never want to see it again. What I mean is that it is unlikely to leave you unimpressed or bored. I belong to the minority w... More..

Politics, News & Issues > Politics in Asia Tibet vs China: Quest for freedom

The occupation of Tibet by the Chinese has been a tragedy for Tibetans and an unmitigated catastrophe for Tibetan culture. The Chinese have sought not only to capture their land and its wealth but also to stifle and ultimately destroy their age-old and spiritually very rich cultural tradition. By imposing various restriction... More..

Politics, News & Issues > Food & Agriculture Global food crisis is developing

Doomsday is coming. Not the kind of doomsday predicted by cults or the one when terrorists conquer the world, but one full of hunger and clamor for sustenance; a slow, starvation-driven and ugly decay of humanity. It is a frightening prospect which we must make every effort to avoid. Our wanton use and ever increasing greed ... More..

Politics, News & Issues > Politics in Africa Robert Mugabe and the Zimbabwe crisis

What is happening in Zimbabwe is a challenge to the international community. The tyrannical rule of Mugabe who is preparing to grab power again at 84, continues. After 28 years during which he has brought that once prosperous country to ruin, he is determined to cling to power. Claiming to have redeemed the country from Brit... More..

Politics, News & Issues > Presidential Elections 2008 US elections 2008: The impact of race on the choice for Obama
11 of 11

When George Bush narrowly defeated Al Gore, the US began its downward slide in world opinion; a slide which accelerated significantly when Bush began his ill-advised war on Iraq. Nearly 4000 dead soldiers, over millions dead Iraqis and billions of wasted dollars later he still maintains he made the right decision! Clearly th... More..
