With the completion of the withdrawal of 28,500 US troops posted in the recent military build up in Iraq, the country for now is taking in a gasp of fresh but temporary calm. According to Pentagon only 490 deaths have been reported in the month of...
Iran test-fired nine missiles on Wednesday. It didn’t forget to add that Israel and U.S. assets were within missile reach. Iran has sent a strong and clear warning that it’ll retaliate if there is any military attack on its nuclear projects. Now...
‘U.S. attack cannot stop Iran’s N-program’ - Better late than never, finally White house is banking on diplomatic measures instead of military action to act as deterrent for Iran’s nuclear program. Speaking on behalf of President Bush, White...
The dwindling patches of common ground between Tehran and the West - a 560 mile long stretch of dikes and trenches along Afghan border - may soon look desolate. This would be the dream-turn-true situation for the international drug lords of...
A major military exercise carried out by Israel earlier this month has given rise to the speculation of a possible military aggression against Iranian nuclear establishments by Israel. Rumors doing the rounds in media are strongly supported by US...

Is Iran’s controversial nuclear program starting a nuclear arms race in the Middle East? If a report by the London-based International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) is to be believed, then at least 13 countries in the region are exploring...
President Bush seems to manage to find some ratioanle for his foreign policy actions. In 2003 he told us that the bad Saddam Hussain had nuclear weapons, chemical weapoms and what not. The world half believed it then. And we have the US army sitting in...
Iran, Iraq and America have long been involved in a series of battles since the Gulf war and I suffice it to say that hegemonic American attitude and opportunism made the atmosphere hostile, along with the already existing animosity between these...
The United Nation Security Council has once again managed to implement the foreign policies of individual countries as its own. On Monday, the UN Security Council voted for new sanctions against Iran for refusing to suspend its nuclear enrichment...
President Ahmadinejad is visiting Iraq. The US forces rather ungraciously stayed away from providing security (or was it Iran did not want it) during his visit. Even a helicopter was not provided. Bush just the other day called on Iran to 'quit...
Lebanon is a country without a standing Parliament, and a President at the moment and yet regional players are having a go at each other making it immensely difficult for the international community to find a solution in installing a legitimate...

Iran fears that the US will launch a sudden air strike on its nuclear facilities. In the last few days a lot of statements have emanated from Iran about longer range missiles and submarines being developed by it. These are a sort of sabre rattling by the...
Tension over the Iran nuclear issue is hotting up again. The IAEA report said Iran was co-operating but not pro-actively co-operating. In short the nuclear watch dog is saying the glass is half full. US and other western countries see the glass as being...
These are critical times for Iran and the middle-east as a whole. With Tehran's nuclear standoff still to be peacefully resolved, it is apparent that the Islamic republic's radical leader president Ahmadinejad is in no mood to give in to American and...
