I read that. I especially liked how according to the Shariat, a
gestation period of 5 years was considered normal after a divorce or
something like that. The only reason I'm glad they believe that bull
is because it helps prevent the sentencing to go into effect.
I'm sorry if I hurt feelings here, but Islamic Law, or at least the
Shariat, is just a load of bull

Re #19, if the CIA hadn't helped Saddam's Baath party to power all this
would've never happened.
Read the history of Iraq. Its full of manipulation, first by the
British and then (and now) by the US.

No doubt it's emotionally satisfying to slam sj2 for the historical
failings of the Indian government but how exactly is that relevant?

Does that mitigate the severity of the US's failings or does it just
give us leave to tell those uppity foreigners to shut up because they're
no better?

Someone car bombed a Shiite mosque during prayers today. 17+ dead, 100+
dead/injured. On the assumption that it wasn't Americans, my first though
was it was Sunis, the sect associated with Saddam Hussein's admin.

Re #31, #33: Turn that logic around, Dan. You've entered posts critical
of the Palestinians. Shouldn't you be posting criticisms of the US as
well, in the interest of fairness?

Cross, besides what's said above, what happens or happened in India,
is a)on a small scale compared to what's being discussed here, and b)
affects India itself, unlike what we're discussing where it's
affecting more than just US. India has never been the one putting on
the mantle of big brother, and taking it upon herself to "protect" all
other countries from their evil dictators. You're not quite comparing
apples to apples here.
Tod, by the 5 year gestation period, I mean that the Shariat believes
that the woman can be pregnant for upto 5 years after her divorce, and
then have a child. Don't look at me, that's what they belive

If you read my posts carefully, I am always been sharply critical of
politicians everywhere. And I have never failed to admit the atrocities
commmitted by Indian politicians too. Being an Indian, I know better
than you the atrocities committed by them, be it Punjab or the back-
stabbing of the Indian army by its PM in SriLanka.
But I fail to see how does that justify what US is doing?
Re #33, Cross, why don't you post a fact (not an opinion) I posted and
I will try to dig the sources behind it. Of late, I've posted a lot of
material from the RUPE's "Behind the Invarion of Iraq". If you question
their sources, I would advise you to read their report and follow the
sources they have mentioned in their report.
"and all they wanted was an autonomous state ". Would you grant
autonomy to Texas if they demanded it?
Why would a sovreign nation not thwart designs of a separatist movement?
I will tell you why its our business to butt in US-Pakistan
relationships!! Because those missiles fired at our crafts in Kashmir
by terrorists are Stinger missiles manufactured in the US of A!!! THAT
IS WHY!!! From Patton tanks to F-16s, the equipment used by the
Pakistani Army to fight us it supplied by the US of A.
