Trippin' With My 2 Favorite Allies
2008-03-21 23:32:00 Dudes! I’m not gonna be around for like next couple of days. I’m actually off to Thailand with two of my fellow droogies. So I decided to burn a whole MP3 disk for the trip and I tried to pick what fits among so many things and I have put diverse tastes in my 100 song collection. I first wanted to call this collection “Shangri-La Redemption” but my friend Mehrdad changed my mind and we decided to call it “Trippin’ With My Two Favorite Allies” based on the song “Road Trippin’ by Red Hot Chili Peppers. So here’s the tracklisting to this disk just in case you wanted me to give it to you for your travelling abroad. I’m so excited, this is the first time I’m getting out of the country and I’m gonna have loads of fun in Bangkok and Pattaya.

2008-02-17 16:48:00 CNews ISLAMABAD: President Pervez Musharraf Sunday said Pakistan Muslim League (Q) and its coalitions parties will win the elections with thumping majority and that he would act as a "father figure" to the country's new prime minister.In an exclusive interview with Jemima Khan, ex-wife of cricket star turned politician Imran Khan, published in a foreign newspaper, President Musharraf said Ms Benazir Bhutto and widower Asif Ali Zardari, now leader of the Pakistan People's Party (PPP), should not have been granted immunity from corruption charges last year.

U.S. and allies at odds over Afghanistan
2008-02-05 06:04:00 By Sue Pleming WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. defense and foreign policy chiefs face an uphill fight this week trying to get its allies in Canada and Europe to boost NATO forces and coordinate efforts in Afghanistan in the face of rising Taliban attacks. Experts say their agenda could backfire if the United States is too strident in its criticism of allies and in pushing for more troops, especially in countries where the public opposes more involvement in Afghanistan. European countries don't feel the same urgency over Afghanistan, said James Phillips of the Heritage Foundation thinktank. "The political support is not there for it in European capitals," he said. "Unfortunately many of the Europeans see their contribution in Afghanistan in terms of an armed peace corps rather than as a real war-fighting coalition." U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice heads for London for talks on Wednesday with British Foreign Minister David Miliband and Prime Minister ...

Musharraf’s allies will not get majority in Feb 18 polls
2008-01-29 12:22:00 Political parties supporting President Pervez Musharraf “will not be in a position to get majority in the Parliament if the elections are held on February 18,” Gallup Pakistan Chairman Dr Ijaz Shafi Gilani said. After the assassination of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto, the February 18 elections were likely “to follow the general pattern of the 1997 elections,” Dr Gilani said at a seminar organised by Pakistan Institute of Legislative Development and Transparency (PILDAT). He said it was too early to predict the size of the sympathy vote and the vote bank it would cut into, but it would be crucial for the outcome of the elections. The establishment had been “playing the role of a balancer” since the 1970s elections, he said, and had been manoeuvring elections to produce a hung Parliament. This was defeated in the 1997 elections, Dr Gilani added. He said that the Muttahida Qaumi Movement would be predominant in ...

Mid-East Trip's Results: Gulf allies turn their backs on Bush
2008-01-19 17:42:00 So, it was Filipino Monkey, after all. The Pentagon has admitted that the footage of the famous incident of January 6 when five speedboats of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC)"buzzed" three US Navy warships in the Strait of Hormuz could have been compromised. "I am coming at you. You will explode in a few minutes" - that was what the American navy men heard. An indignant Washington announced the US Navy was on the verge of firing on the IRGC boats, but for the latter abruptly turning away. President George W Bush, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and Secretary of Defense Robert Gates added their strident warning that Tehran would face dire consequences if "provocative actions" were repeated. But the Iranian footage of the "incident" makes a laughing stock of the US administration. The funny thing is, it was an incident that didn't happen. Commander Lydia Robertson, spokeswoman for the US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain, put a brave face, while admitting, "We don't know for s...
