The sad truth is, there is nothing democratic about Pakistan's so-called democratic parties. At the time of each election, leaders assure us they will make the changes they failed to carry out the last time they were in office.

Jerry Falwell "agents...
...anti-Semitism, has lashed out at the book. The Krakow archbishop and close associate of the late Pope John Paul II, Stanislaw Dziwisz, has written a letter to the Catholic ZNAK publishing house, saying that it should not have published the book. A publishing house should "propagate historical truth," not "awake anti-Polish and anti-Semitic demons," said the archbishop.
