Islamophobia in the Classroom"The net result is an education system that is failing every student, Muslim and non-Muslim alike. Generations of students are being graduated who know very little about their fellow citizens of other faiths; and if they gain any information at all about Islam as a world religion, or about its history, civilization and culture during the entire course of their formal education -- that information is most likely to be false." |

These are Truly Special Times"My fellow Americans, if we do not value the lives, dreams and culture of our fellow humans in Africa, Asia, Latin America, how can we expect the rest of the world to value us in return? If we project our fears and insecurities upon the world, don’t we risk it being flung back in our faces? No, the road to a better world and hence a better America is not through warfare but through compassion, respect and understanding." |

The Pashtun Question and Pakistan's Fears"It is believed that Pakistan’s Afghan policy is still guided by its fears about the Pashtun Question. But if it is so, using terrorism will hardly do. The two countries need to resolve the issue through negotiations." |

Corporate-Government On Display and the Taxpayers Will Pay :: The Bailout Win-Win For Speculators, Risk Takers and Finance Thieves ::"....the same people who made the mess, profited from the mess are now profiting from the bailout. The wealth-class profited immensely over recent decades, expanding while the middle class was stagnate. At the bottom of the income distribution, the wages of low-skilled workers, the "working poor," have been stagnant or falling through the past three decades. And at the very top, the share of income going to the richest 1 percent of Americans has nearly doubled from about 8 percent in the late '70s to about 15 percent today and that does not even count capital gains profits." |
