Why did the Brutish people put up a statue of Gandhi? Why not Bose or Bhagat Singh or Dhingra? Around the world the Indian government, mostly INC, has been eager to install statues of Gandhi and paying for it from the tax payers of India. It would be interesting to follow the money and find out who ...

According to the Pashtunwali tribal code, killing a person of another tribe can start long blood feuds. This keeps the intra-tribal rivalry to smaller levels. If the Talibums killed the Pasthun children in that Army School, they become liable for blood feuds. Was that a consideration for them? Or, d...

There are more Sikhs in TSP in NWFP than Pakjab. That is ironical, but understandable. The reason is that in 1947, the riots cleansed Pakjab, but the riots in Pathan NWFP were few, if any. This is due to the fact that '47 riots were British sponsored and cleansing Sikhs in NWFP wasn't necessary. Whe...
