Al Kahf - The Cave: Writing a compelling narrative on Aceh
http://alkahf.blogspot.com/2006/01/writing-compelling-narrative-on-aceh.html
Al Kahf - The Cave. Sunday, January 01, 2006. Writing a compelling narrative on Aceh. The Jakarta Post, Jakarta. It doesn't take an expert to speak honestly about what's happening in Aceh a year after the disastrous earthquake and tsunami struck the territory. Mardiyah "Diyah" Chamim has proven this - although now she's a bit of an expert herself. However, after nearly a year in Aceh, Diyah has written a fascinating story about Aceh's struggle to get back on its feet - Sejarah Tumbuh di Kampung Kami.

I'm dropping my usual deadpan third person style to speak colloquially in this essay because I'm angry, having waded through the last presidential debate. Fatalistically, I have less faith in Kerry than Bush. What I don't want to lo...

Between Hope and Fear. INTER SPEM ET METUM- - - - - - -. Saturday, December 30, 2006. On the way to his execution, Saddam Hussein said. Iraq without me is nothing.". I am glad the Saddam era is over. But I wouldn't say I am relieved. I wonder if his last words are prescient. The nation called Iraq is slipping into civil war. Indeed, is Iraq a nation? Is its national continuity impossible without the bindings of a brutal autocrat? Much relies on the answer to this question. Blairs Arc of Extremism.

The media circus seems to have oscillated around this event. Most people think Bostonians have overreacted. I agree. Guerrilla...
