Should We View Rashid al-Khalidi, Walid al-Khalidi, and Edward Sa`id as Col
2008-11-06 10:42:00 Yaacov Lazowick reports the following claim by Prof Juan Cole who would disqualify children from certain activities on account of the deeds of their fathers:About a year ago Juan Cole made an unfair statement about Tzipi Livni, whereby since her father had been a terrorist in the Irgun, she had no moral standing to be requiring a cessation of Arab terror; since she's Israel's Foreign Minister, he effectively was rejecting her right to negotiate. Her father's identity was more important than her own actions, you see. At the time I responded, and he responded to me, and you can see my summary of the exchange here.Actually, we could take the principle that Cole enunciated and go farther with it. Rashid al-Khalidi is Obama's friend and has a well-paying post at Columbia U. The Khalidi family long were part of the Arab-Muslim upper crust in Jerusalem and indeed belonged to the governing class of the Ottoman Empire. Consider Yusuf Diya al-Khalidi.Now, my query to Juan Cole: Should Ras...

Karim Rashid x Veuve Clicquot Globalight
2008-04-15 20:44:00 Launching tonight as part of Milan's furniture festivities, the latest collaboration with leading designers and the second with blob lord Karim Rashid and Veuve Clicquot is this reinvention of a chandelier in the form of a glowing pink champagne holder that doubles as a cooling tote. The design, an asymmetrical sensual ellipse, was the result of Rashid's initial scribble after asked to meld the immaterial and the material like he'd done with his first project for Veuve, the loveseat. Realizing his doodle was "the idea in itself," the Globalight literally circles the champagne and adds ambient illumination that plays off the pink hue of Ros champagne, for which it was designed. Bringing lighting experts Zumtobel into the project, the lamp-cum-basket uses technology to light up without heating and in fact keeps bottles at the ideal temperature for up to two hours.See the wonderfully surreal photos for the campaign after the jump. Limited to a run of 500 (only 50 of those will be av...

Rashid Dostum Documentary Now Online
2007-12-02 20:17:00 December 2, 2007. I knew that Brian Glyn Williams, a professor at U Mass and the owner of an excellent personal-academic website, had produced a documentary on Rashid Dostum. I couldn’t find any info on the documentary so I had plans to ask Dr. Williams about how I could get my hands on a copy. But now I see that he has put the one hour documentary online, free for all to see. What do I think of the documentary? I have no idea. I’m on a dial-up internet connection (yes, they do still exist in rural areas) so I can’t see these vids. Maybe I’ll post my opinions on the documentary when I get back to civilization. The documentary, Dostum: A Story of Afghanistan, is chopped up into seven videos. I’ve embedded them here to save you the trouble of clicking on a link.

Afghanistan’s “Newest” Ethnic Group, Rashid Dostum And&he
2007-09-27 03:10:00 September 27, 2007. OK, Afghanistan has no more room for new ethnic groups. So this is the last one (for this month at least): Turkologist Ingeborg Baldauf, who has been working on the folklore, local religion and recent history of Northern Afghanistan since the late 1970s, tracked “them” down and wrote a spiffy little article. Here is the summary: On Turkological ground, the existence of “small groups of Khorassanian Turkic speakers along the Amu Darya” had been postulated years ago. Field research in Andkhoy, the northwestern most town of Afghanistan, seems to have yielded proof of this assumption: The Dayı / Kārgıl of the Andkhoy oasis in fact speak a dialect that comes close to Khorassanian Turkic. This paper introduces local knowledge about their historical background, religious and linguistic affiliation, and social and professional attribution, all of which are important elements in the shaping of personal and collective identities. I was really excited (se...

The scaring Sheikh Rashid
2007-05-27 16:03:00 by Dr. Ghayur Ayub.via emailSheikh Rashid is rapidly becoming a second Pir Pagaro, with a difference that Pir Sahib has good command of spiritual knowledge. In his latest ?prediction?, Sheikh Sahib warned the opposition of another martial law if they carried on opposing general Musharaf on the streets. He should realize that another martial law at this stage in time will bring a bloody revolution in the country as the public has enough of army bullying. The rapid rise in suicidal bombings has evaporated any fear people had about army hounding. Before scaring the un-scared ones, Sheikh Rashid should look into his own Gariban (soul) and remember what his mentor Shorash Malik once told him when he was on death bed in PIMS. Does he want me to remind him in public?

Ahmed Rashid Versus the Uzbeks
2007-03-29 20:54:00 March 29, 2007. You’ve read Taliban, the influential book by superstar reporter and author Ahmed Rashid, right? Of course you have, everybody has. And everybody seems to have it on their bookshelf, displayed prominently as proof of their interest and expertise in Afghanistan. - Here’s a fun game to play when you see said book: 1) Pick up book and say “Oooh! What an interesting book! Do you recommend it?” To which the book’s owner says “Of course! It is indispensable.” 2) Go to page 56 and 57, as well as page 149 and read out loud (in a fake Oxbridge British accent) the passages about the Uzbeks. 3) Watch the owner of the book squirm in front of the other people present and hear him/her claim to have missed those parts. So what do those passages contain? Here’s a sample: “The Uzbeks, the roughest and toughest of all the Central Asian nationalities, are noted for their love of marauding and pil...
