    When American bombs were raining down on what is left of Afghanistan, fellow Muslims in the neighbouring Islamic republic of Iran took out to the Streets. Contrary to our expectations in the West, they did not rally to denounce the 'Great Satan' - the name given to America by the late Ayatollah Khomeini. Instead, ordinary Iranians, in one of the most extraordinary shifts in the geopolitical landscape since September 11, challenged their own hard-line Islamic clerics who swept Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi from power in 1979. Tens of thousands of men and women also demonstrated, in several cities, after World...

    LA JUNTA, Colo. -- A man has pleaded guilty to second-degree murder for setting his father on fire two years ago as the two argued over whether kerosene was flammable.

Ernest Montoya, 58, died several weeks after the 2003 incident during his birthday party. Martinez, 38, had been charged with first-degree murder and other charges. Sentencing was set for March 8, where he faces at least 16 years in...

    Well, it was about a year ago when a similiar thing happened, and it was huge. Here is a copy of an email that is going around. Just interested in everyones thoughts: Last year right after the September 11 attacks. The citizens of the United States used the Internet to unite everyone in our grief and outrage at the most cowardly attack ever perpetrated on America. On September 14th, people from all over the United States (and even Canada) took part in a nation wide candle lighting to symbolize our unity in face of adversity. I personally have never been...
