MANAMA, March 24 (IslamOnline.net & News Agencies) - A strong blast occurred Monday night, March 24, 2003 in Bahrain near the U.S. Jufair military base which serves as headquarters of the Navy's Fifth Fleet. The explosion that was heard at around 1900 GMT shook residences near the base but it was not immediately possible to determine if the blast came from inside or outside the base, according to Agence France-Presse (AFP). http://www.islam-online.net/english/News/2003-03/24/article22.shtml ... read full story / add a comment

By John Brown Last Friday afternoon, as I watched the horrid images of the first "shock and awe" U.S. bombing blitz against Baghdad, which doubtless brought terror to millions of innocent civilians, my feelings of outrage at the Bush administration were joined by a sense of relief that was perhaps inappropriate at such a shameful moment in our history. I was relieved that, eleven days before, I had submitted my resignation from the U.S. foreign service. Numerous circumstances led to my resignation, but there were two main reasons. First, I believed that U.S. President George W. Bush had failed to present a convincing case to Americans and the world that massive force should be used against Iraq at this time. Second, I felt an obligation as an American to speak out against this presidential failure to justify a questionable policy. http://www.themoscowtimes.com/stories/2003/03/24/006.html ... read full story / add a comment
