USA has a staunch ally in the dictator of Uzbekistan, Islam Karimov. Like
Saddam, Pinochet, the Shah of Iran, Samoza, and many others, Karimov sponsors torture and massacres of his own people. He has succeeded in pushing the traditional Sufi version of Islam toward fundamentalism. 1,000 unarmed were killed on 13 May 2005. We'll hear alot more about this country in the future, unless a better understanding of how anger at a brutal regime propped up by a foreign power can fertilise overseas violence and terror. Can't understand how this simple lesson is not learned. |

Second only to Kim Jong Il in NK. -- a d y k e s @ p a n i x . c o m Don't blame me. I voted for Gore. |

(In the US, souped up Japanese racing cars are called "rice rockets".) But "Asia" is a big place, stretching from Turkey to Oman to Japan. When that is considered, rice doesn't really fit. Maybe the Muslim variety (most of the places we're talking about have Muslim populations) could be called halal republics, halal being the Muslim equivalent of the Jews' kosher.
