Windows to Russia

The world of Russia at times seems to be nothing but a whole bunch of Kiosks and markets. Scattered all over the place. What is a Kiosk? Glad you asked… Kiosk: is a small, separated garden pavilion open on some or all sides. Kiosks were common in Persia, India, Pakistan, and in the Ottoman Empire […]

Now isn’t this cool? I realize that this is very superficial at this point right now, but it is a start and it is a reality. I have made many expressions that the East is getting really tired of the Western worlds flagrant disregard for law and order. I understand that nothing will happen to […]

Vox populi, vox dei – the voice of the people is the voice of God. ( Allah )! Well, the puppet Egyptian military rulers have over-played their hands! And rightly so, the people want them out! Ever since the beginning of the Egyptian revolt, the American government had been trying to ‘manage’ the outcome! Luckily […]
