Israel should recognize that joining the NPT (Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty) could help erode financial and popular support for Islamic hardliners in Iran and for Hizbullah.>>>

The Palestinians' Kiss of Death

In the Middle East, everything is a conspiracy theory

20-Apr-2010 (11 comments)
Palestinians were the only nation who unequivocally and actively supported the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait. Palestine has been a nation drowning in blood and tears for two generations, and like all the angrily desperate, grabs on any glimmer of hope for revenge on Israel and its friends. That is how; Saddam could readily use the local Palestinians in Kuwait for guarding the town and functioning as a make-shift police force. At the time of invasion, Iraq had the largest army in the region and the 4th in the world>>>

Fathers and daughters

What is there in life than to leave a good name and a great legacy?

A few years ago, while waiting at the doctor’s office, my father wrote a poem for me and gave it to me, bringing tears to my eyes. A day before a good friend had passed away. On that small piece of paper he wrote a verse from Roudaki which said, “be brave, and grieve, let not your grief take over but live with fortitude and decency." I can’t say I have listened to my father’s wise words ever sine he left me. On June 25 th 2009, my father would have been 94 years old. He passed away on April 20 th , 2009. I know this sounds ridiculous and totally illogical, but I never thought my father would die!!>>>
