In the name of God, go, 'The name tells us a lot' Emma Thompson,
In the name of God, go - Roedad Khan Some things do not change. Mr. Khan said the same words two years back. The intended recipient of his fervent prayers was one Gen. Pervez Musharraf.

Blackwater Attempted to Bribe Iraqi Officials - In the aftermath of the 2007 Nisour Square massacre in Baghdad by operatives working for Blackwater, top company officials including then-president Gary Jackson "authorized secret payments of about $1 million to Iraqi officials that were intended to silence their criticism and buy their support," according to the New York Times.

'The name tells us a lot'- Anjum Niaz - The witch hunt has begun and the news channels are whipping up anti-Muslim hysteria. Stop!

But contrary to such advice, the anchors, particularly on Fox News, were like cats on a hot tin roof meowing to name the shooter when military protocol demanded that they keep their traps shut.
Shireen M Mazari - With all that has been happening in this region, one had tended to push the Indo-Israeli relationship on the backburner. This was not wise because the military dimension of this relationship is critical and has been a major factor in India’s military policies in Occupied Kashmir.
