...judge him with a double standard, then at least he should be given the benefit of the doubt. Barry Lee Hong Kong Ii read the interview with Ahmadinejad with great pleasure. He answered the questions with a hint of arrogance but also with reflection. The U.S. President is committing a mistake by rejecting dialogue.

Leaders like Ahmadinejad must be taken seriously - and not in spite of but because of different views of the world. Ahmadinejad was fundamentally right...
Anything seems to go in design today: styles clash, boundaries blur and hipper-than-thou types talk of "hybridity."

Observers say that Musharraf's retreats on contentious issues have only strengthened the radicals. "The universities reflect what you are seeing in the larger political landscape," says Samina Ahmed, South Asia director for the International Crisis Group, a think tank. "The moderate parties have been deprived of their experienced cadre of potential recruits, but the religious parties haven...

In either case, signed pieces do not necessarily reflect the views of the editorial board. In fact, we tend to give our writers, especially our columnists and editorial cartoonists, a substantial amount of free reign in choosing their topics; we value clarity and originality of an argument over the particular content of the argument itself...
