Was Pakistan a British Creation? In 1947, no one expected India to survive as a nation. Recently unsealed British top-secret archives provide a stunningly different version of what really happened during the cataclysmic partition, in 1947, of India into three separate and distinct entities.
Paid Assassins The civil war in Iraq seems to be much more mild than some had been predicted. Many pundits painted a doom and gloom scenario out of control. Yet we are see the time period of the civil war reduced in duration. Generally civil wars do involve other nation states supporting one or the other. Ours surely did. Both the North and South had outside support.
Operation Iraqi Freedom, Soldiers and Their Psyche Have you noticed that the when the service men who have been killed in action in this war, that the journalists go harass the families and girlfriends or wives of the fallen soldiers? During these interviews I could not help but notice that the infantry warriors killed had girlfriends or wives who were full figured ethnic woman or young ladies.
US Government Regulators and Aides with AIDS All government regulators or diplomat who are in high risk categories for contracting AIDS as well as senior aides in our nations capital who routinely travel abroad must be tested if they have any drug history or are homosexual.

Great Melting Pot Indeed An interesting conversation that I thought I must share with you. Today in a coffee shop in the United States of America the subject matter turned to South of the Border. We discussed the politically hot topic of Illegal Immigration to the US from Mexico. In our discussion we both agreed that all of our ancestors came here from somewhere else.
TABOR: The Growing Taxpayer Bill of Rights Movement and Economic Incentives for Industry "Beyond its potential economic advantages, a 'Bill of Rights' also brings important accountability benefits to citizens," said Martin McBride, Spokesperson for the Oak Ridge (Tennessee) Accountability Project. "The act of having to explain a tax increase directly to the pubic really helps government officials focus better. It reminds them that tax money is a precious commodity and it motivates them to work to make government more effective and more efficient. This in turn lowers costs, builds citizen trust, and fundamentally strengthens American government."
An Introduction to the Connecticut State Budget for 2004-2005 Connecticut is facing the same budget deficit environment as the other forty-nine states. The downturn in the economy has meant less tax revenues were collected from all sources. At this point, Connecticut needs to focus on reshaping its tax and spending habits in a way that induces future economic activity, rather than focus on even more ways to tax the citizens of Connecticut. In this regard, Connecticut has received very poor advice from Governing Magazine and its associated web site, governing.com.
Connecticut Does Not Need Further Income Tax Hikes! Like it or not, Connecticut borders Massachusetts. Ever since Michael Dukakis was the standard bearer for the Democratic Party's 1988 presidential campaign, Massachusetts has been repeatedly dubbed "Taxachusetts" in articles appearing in the national press. The rest of the country views Massachusetts and its neighbors in the Northeast as demanding a very high level of state and local public services, and taxing the daylights out of its citizens to pay for these expenditures.
Question Authority Policemen in many US cities are taking their new authority over the terrorism issue way too seriously. They are using it as a reason to harass our citizenry.

Iranian Elections - Roadmap To Continued Apathy The recent first round of the Iranian elections somewhat resembled the rise to power of the promising Mohammed Khatami first time round in 1999. But despite the break from apathy seen over recent elections, the liveliness does not bode anywhere near the same promise that Khatami managed to swirl up six years ago.
The Options For Regime Change In Iran If recent speeches by US officials on Iran's plans to become a nuclear power can be seen as part of a build-up to a possible US-evoked regime change in Iran, the intelligence behind it is at once scant and abundant.

Whats Right About Nebraska: How the Democrats Lost the Heart of American Populism Liberal Democrats don't get it. America's "book ends" don't get it. Move-on.org, Al Franken, the good doctor from Vermont, along with Barbara Streisand, are convinced it's coming right at them, and it's high time George Soros kicked in another $Billion in order to defeat it. Thomas Frank's political thriller, "What's the Matter with Kansas: How Conservatives Won the Heart of America," pretends to fathom just what went wrong with it--claiming it was some grand Republican strategy that pulled it off; not so, it was the stupidity of the political hacks, with whom the erstwhile heartlander Frank now delights to please, who fumbled the ball at the Nebraska 1 yard line! Score: Nebraska Red 55, East/West Coast Blue 45.
