The new decade begins
* The new year brought further signs that the US will step up
its military violence in the expanding war in Afghanistan and
Pakistan. Over a 72-hour period beginning on New Year’s Eve, the
US launched three separate drone missile attacks on Pakistani
territory in North Waziristan, a tribal region that borders
Afghanistan.
The new decade has begun with a series of events signaling that
the United States will intensify its aggressive and militarist
policies in Central Asia, East Africa, the Middle East and beyond.
These actions indicate that international tensions, fueled over
the previous decade by the US-led wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and
military interventions in a number of other countries, will grow
even more embittered and explosive.More

WANT TO SAVE PAKISTAN: People
Responsible for the debacle of Pakistan
What is our mission
In the words of Zaid Hamid sahib, the founder of BrassTacks,
“Our organization is Pakistan, our identity is Islam, and our
constitution is the quran”. We represent nothing other than this.
Our mission is to revive our pristine religious values, and
helping create awareness among the people so they can understand
the finer, subtle truths of our Islamic wisdom in relation to our
current situation. Specifically, some of the salient points
related to our mission are as follows:
will all this be allowed in our pakitani khilafat?

Afghanistan
troubles Canada
The 2,500 Canadian soldiers in Afghanistan were supposed to
represent a friendly footprint, focussed on winning over a cynical
population one village at a time.
Using a variation of the "Shape, Clear, Hold and Build"
strategy that has become the rallying cry of US counter-insurgency
specialists in the Obama White House, the tiny force was the very
model of rectitude even amid the fog of war.
How unfortunate then that these very forces are now being
accused of being benign spectators as suspected Taliban fighters
were tortured by their compatriots in Afghan jails.More

Nuclear Threat: Fire at
Bhabha Atomic Research Centre lab kills 2
A fire broke out in a chemistry laboratory at the Bhabha Atomic
Research Centre, located just a kilometre away from the nuclear
reactors, leaving two research students dead, but scientists said
there was no danger of any radioactivity.
Scientists at the suburban Trombay-based BARC said a loud bang
was heard in the chemistry lab after which black smoke billowed
out. It was not immediately clear if the bang was caused by an
explosion or triggered by a chemical reaction.
No research involving radioactive material is conducted in the
multi-storeyed Modular lab, in which the chemistry lab was housed,
scientists said. It was also stated that no reactor, radioactivity
or radiation was involved in the accident.

Hindus accept deficiency in
their religion Unlike MUSLIMS who insist that their RELIGION is perfect
because some body in ARABIA said something 1400 years back
it unlike MUSLIMS who insist that their RELIGION is perfect
because some body in ARABIA said something 1400 years back. SO why
should there be CASTE in ISLAM as it has not been stated 1400 years
back. Many comments on TCN itself state that "convert to ISLAM -
BHOOOOM, ALLAH makes the convertee perfect"!!!!! Why has ALLAH
failed to make DALIT MUSLIM a SAYED/ THANGAL MUSLIM????????
----become muslim and have peace of mind.---More

US takes hard line against poor
nations, China
Sudan, compared the US-backed document to the 1944 agreement
among the major powers on establishing the post-World War II
financial system based on the US dollar, calling it an attempt at a
“Bretton Woods takeover” of the climate talks. Tensions
between the major imperialist powers and the poorest and most
oppressed countries erupted Thursday at the UN climate talks in
Copenhagen, after the leaking of draft documents that would
effectively ratify the privileged position of the United States and
Europe in the world economy.More

Historians in the Service of the “Big
Lie”: An Examination of Professor Robert Service’s Biography of
Trotsky

By David North
15 December 2009
We are publishing here a lecture delivered by David North on
December 13 at the Friends Meeting House in London. North is the
chairman of the International Editorial Board of the World
Socialist Web Site and national chairman of the Socialist
Equality Party (US). The lecture develops North’s critique of
Service’s falsifications, initially discussed in the review, “In
the Service of Historical Falsification: A Review of Robert
Service’s Trotsky: A Biography”.
