NEWS and EVENTS up to Musharraf's messing of Pakistan

Dictator Musharraf (now dreesed as a groom) said: "I have actually introduced
the essence of democracy in Pakistan, whether anyone believes it or not
". And
I reply: "Mush, you have killed Pakistan, whether you believe it or not..."

The Saudi king would serve the world better if, instead of accusing Britain
of not doing enough in the fight against terrorism
, would do more to reverse
some of the abominable laws that hold his oppressed kingdom in the dark ages...

"We are introducing a new culture of smooth transition which is as it
should be in civilized societies."
, said the tyrant Musharraf. Maybe the
new oxy-virus strain originated with this dictator. Lessons of "smooth
transition" and of "civilized society" from this abominable slimy being?

Mikhail Saakashvili climbed to power as a democratic, pro-western and
modern leader. It seems that he is now behaving as a corrupt, fattened
politician of the old Soviet block... Time to step down?

At last, at last, at last... BBC refers to Musharraf as "General". Gone
now is the unwarranted title "President", although the title "Dictator"
is the one that fits his position, by any person's definition. The time will
come... Plus, Rice condemned the emergency rule.

It seems that Europeans and their NGOs have not learned their lesson yet.
They continue to treat the Mother Continent with great disrespect causing

NGOs, such as UNHCR, that have experience and credibility; do NOT open
your own outfit

The BBC reporting on the blast in Pakistan that killed scores of people
writes:  "President Musharraf said the attack was a "conspiracy against
democracy"". This is an oxymoron that insults the memories of all those
that have fought and are fighting for democracy in Pakistan. Dictator
Musharraf has established himself as the arch-conspirator against
democracy.

How could the judges of a Supreme Court in a semi-decent country
allow a Dictator that has illegally overthrown a democratically elected
government to stand as a candidate in "democratic" elections?

World Bank head Wolfowitz to quit
The human comedy: how people put a positive(?) twist in the most negative of
situations...

"He assured us that he acted ethically1 and in good faith1 in what he believed were the best interests of the institution1,
and we accept that1," the board said in its announcement of Wolfowitz's resignation.

The bank board said it was clear that a number of people2 had erred in reviewing Riza's pay package. The board's
statement made no mention of any financial arrangements related to Wolfowitz's departure, nor did it speak to Riza's
future3.

1. All these are clearly laughable. Even if the board members were intending to make a joke, they would not
    have come up with more entertaining comments. At least they did not mean them and they fired him...
2. Obvious. First Wolfowitz, who may have reviewed it in bed, and then his subordinates, who may not have
    wanted to lose their job or decrease his libido.
3. Do not worry. With such a sugar daddy and around $190K yearly salary (of which $60K was a gift for
    performing so well) her future at the expense of world's taxpayers is guaranteed to be very sweet...

With what kind of moral authority is the Prime Minister of a nation having had a clandestine

Use of terminology has always been relative to the user. Saying that the average modern
and elegantly dressed woman is "uncovered meat" just qualifies the speaker as an
unintelligent male covered meat.

The Iranian President has called for Israel to be "wiped off the map". Besides the fact that no nation has
the right to deny another nation's right for peaceful coexistece on our planet, the Iranian leader would
better realise, sooner rather than later, that he is there to honor the historic role that Iran has played in
shaping today's united world culture and to heed the calls of the Iranian people by extending a hand of
friendship to every other nation on earth, including the people of Israel.
