Three major faiths of the world hold Palestine in great importance. Today we live in a cosmopolitan world, in a village that is smaller than ever. Conflicts in one part of the world are bound to effect other parts of the world. What makes Palestine at the heart of these conflicts is due to the fact that the world's three major religions namely Judaism, Christianity and Islam hold Palestine with reat reverence.

Dr. Ilan Pappe, Dr. Ismail Adam Patel and Raymond are going to shed some light upon the issue.

The parents of the Danish soldier killed in Iraq, Bjarke Kirkmand, sue the Danish Prime Minister for breach of the constitution in connection with Denmark's participation in the war against Iraq.

This development is of enormous significance, because the plaintiffs have clearly suffered loss through the decision to send Denmark to war in Iraq - their son was killed in the course of the war. Thus, the courts cannot refuse to accept the case at all, as they might have been tempted to do in the case brought some weeks ago by a group of concerned citizens. read full story / add a comment

The corporation has been long been directly linked to famine, ironically considering it sells sweeties. read full story / add a comment
