2007-11-06 13:56  Dark Days for Women
udicial authorities in Iran have sentenced two women activists who participated in a peaceful protest against discriminatory laws in June 2006 to more than 30 months in jail and ten lashes. The harsh sentences come amid the recent arrests of more than a dozen student activists, the government closure of the popular Hammihan newspaper, and pressure on Iran's Labour News Agency to stop its activities, in another sweeping crackdown on the Islamic Republic's civil society. Delaram Ali, who is a memb …

2007-11-05 21:32  Duff diplomacy
By Simon Tisdall (THE GUARDIAN, 05/11/07): Condoleezza Rice keeps pretty chirpy, but it was a gloomy weekend for US power and interests in the Middle East. Every way she looked during a flying visit to the region, hopes of progress turned to dust in her hands. From Pakistan to the occupied Palestinian territories, there is a sense of imminent unravelling born of misjudgment and long-term neglect. President-General Pervez Musharraf's "second coup" was a personal rebuff for the US secretary of sta …

By Azzam Tamimi, the director of the London-based Institute of Islamic Political Thought and the author of Hamas: Unwritten Chapters. See also Ulter's lesson for the Middel East (THE GUARDIAN, 05/11/07): David Trimble cannot be accused of lacking knowledge of what the Irish problem was about; he had been part of the problem as well as the solution. However, his lack of expertise on the Palestinian problem - which he admitted on the BBC's Newsnight recently - surely renders him ill qualified to i …

2007-11-05 21:11  A proud, but failing, state
By Peter Preston (THE GUARDIAN, 05/11/07): When, last year, America's heavyweight Foreign Policy magazine moved Pakistan into its top 10 of failed states - at No 9, just ahead of Afghanistan - assorted Islamabad ministers clambered on to the highest of horses. The charge was insulting, ludicrous ... But, baby, try it again now.Here is a huge Islamic nation, nuclear bombs primed not promised, plunged once more under full monty martial law. The army chief of staff who doubles as president has just …

2007-11-05 21:07  The Iraq war has become a disaster that we have chosen to forget
By Madeleine Bunting (THE GUARDIAN, 05/11/07): "You think you are innocent, but you're not," said the British Muslim suicide bomber in the Channel 4 television drama Britz last week. As the compelling actor Manjinder Virk recited her suicide statement to camera, she went on: thousands of women and children are dying every day in Iraq and Afghanistan, and yet the governments responsible have been returned to power.Her assertion sticks in the mind because it goes straight to the heart of how we ch …

2007-11-05 13:28  A Battle Rages in London Over a Mega-Mosque Plan
Disputes over mosques have broken out across Europe. Residents from Belgium to France to Germany have expressed unease at minarets competing in the urban landscape with the spires and stones of centuries-old cathedrals. But the fight raging over an abandoned lot in London's East End is of an altogether grander scale. A large and secretive Islamic sect proposed building what would have been the largest mosque in Europe, smack at the gateway to the 2012 Olympic Games, and within sight of London's …

By Giles Tremlett, the author of Ghosts of Spain (THE GUARDIAN, 03/11/07): They dug up yet another mass grave in Spain this week, this time near the village of Arándiga, 45 miles from Zaragoza. The bones of eight men, all trade unionists, lay where they had been hurriedly buried more than 70 years ago in the early days of the civil war. They had been shot at the same spot by supporters of General Francisco Franco.The eight were never tried. It was enough for them to be known leftwingers, members …

If you can t get people to stop smoking by appealing to their health or their fear/mistrust of large corporations, there s always the hope of reaching them through vanity. That s what the European Union has in mind with Nico Market, a fake store that sells nicotine-related home and beauty products. According to the Guardian, œeach of the [viral ads] promotes a different product a room-freshener, throat spray, toothpaste and skin cream with the twist being that the nicotine-based products have ad …

The first-round victory of Argentina's Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner, wife of incumbent President Nestor Kirchner, reinforces the trends to the left in Latin America, but also illustrates its ambiguities; it shows democracy has been stabilized, but remains of poor quality ; and it suggests that women can aspire to the highest offices of government, but have to perpetuate gender stereotypes to win.

Citatet i rubriken påstås ofta vara uttalat av  Oscar Wilde på dennes dödsbädd. Så också nyligen i en artikel som Guardian Unlimited skrivit om en lista över brittiska personligheters fyndighet. Oscar Wilde vann. Tyvärr inkom en rättelse i tidningen några dagar senare. Tydligen sa han inte alls så, eller då. Guardian skriver: "Oscar Wilde did not say, on his deathbed, "Either those curtains go or I do." He is reported to have said something along the lines of "this wallpaper will be the death of …

By Simon Tisdall (THE GUARDIAN, 25/10/07): Students of the European Union have become accustomed to rating competing member states in a sort of political Champions League table. National standings vary as leaders come and go. The perennial question is: who's up, who's down It's a game the likes of Jacques Chirac loved to play. But in the lull after the storm over the EU's reform treaty, Europe's current Big Three - Britain's Gordon Brown, Germany's Angela Merkel and France's Nicolas Sarkozy - fi …

Recovering from a late start, we rapidly produced machines capable of winning the Battle of Britain.Today, the two nations are on the same side in a different battle, but Germany alone is mobilising as fast as it did 70 years ago. Our common enemy is global warm …

By David Trimble, a Conservative working peer. He was formerly leader of the Ulster Unionist party, first minister of Northern Ireland, and a Nobel peace laureate (THE GUARDIAN, 25/10/07): Advocating the Northern Irish "model" has become a popular pastime. In conflicts as different as those in Spain, Sri Lanka and the Middle East, the key players are now urged to consider the undoubted success in Northern Ireland and follow our example. This is hardly surprising, but I am concerned about how tha …

By Jonathan Freedland (THE GUARDIAN, 24/10/07): It takes a special kind of genius to unite the warring parties of the Israel-Palestine conflict, but George Bush may just have pulled it off. His proposal for what the US administration calls a "meeting", rather than a peace conference, in Annapolis, Maryland, before the end of the year has elicited a unanimity unheard of in the Middle East. From the hardmen of Hamas to the hawks of Likud, there is a rare consensus: Annapolis is doomed to failure. …
