Sounds like the author of this...Sharifuddin Sharafiyar, is quite pleased with the Taliban progress.

Anyone else notice that EVERY single article from the middle east, is writen by a person with a muslim/islamic name?

...read a week or so ago that USMC personnel being deployed into that general area are not “Iraq bound” anymore; time to bring the big boys to theater.

Maybe that is because the vast majority of people in the middle east are muslims. Just a guess.

Maybe for the same reason why almost every article from Bulgaria is written by someone with a Bulgarian name, or articles from Tulsa Highschool tend to be written by students/teachers in Tulsa Highschool.

Anyways, the journalists might be biased, but chances are that articles on the Middle East and FROM the Middle-East will most likely be written by someone from that region. There are many Western journalists that cover the ME, and even some that are in bureaus over there, but all the same most articles coming FROM the ME will be by people who live there. And those people will tend to have ME names.
