 THE YEAR 2010. MAKE A DIFFERENCE THIS YEAR. DEMAND STRONGER ACCOUNTABILITY AND DEFEND YOUR RIGHTS While the year 2009 might well have been a bit of an eye-opener for some people, in overall terms, apart from some major disasters, year 2009 was a rather forgettable one for more people.
With any luck, however, year 2010 might well be a somewhat different in numerous different ways.
On the international scene, Iraq and Afghanistan are still major trouble spots at this point in time, while 2010 will see Yemen will be one country to watch in terms of Al-Qaeda and related insurgency. |

 ISRAEL AND IRAN - THE STAND-OFF CONTINUES One of the Middle-East flash-point situations, this being the stand-off between Iran and Israel, is starting to look more serious as days, weeks and months pass by but at least, at this point in time, the two countries are only exchanging insults rather than military hardware. |

 ONE AYATOLLAH - A TRUCK-LOAD OF LIES Well might Iran's Ayatollah All Khamenei, a man who should stick with his religious books instead of dabbling in politics, say that Iran has no intention to develop nuclear weapons.
The statements by this man being the case, one can only conclude that this particular individual is a liar. |

 IRAN - STUFFED BY RELIGIOUS FANATICISM What is it with so-called religious leaders that even entices them into running countries and stuffing them in the process? Their motivation has certainly has nothing to do with religion but rather more to do with their hunger for power, in my view. |
