One must begin by acknowledging reality and accepting it for what it is, regardless of how painful or undesirable its truth. Faith does not always serve human need; it often undermines progress and promotes oppression of the working class, despite its occasional good intentions. Broken systems of power do not promote justice.
Ultimately, we can only begin our respective journeys to true consciousness and thus revolution from wherever are. But we must have the courage to acknowledge where that is. False hope and wishful thinking can prevent us from doing what must be done. It can perpetuate the very inequality we are trying to eradicate. Reality, no matter how disturbing, provides a solid base from which to move forward. Take it for what it is.

"the media neglects that in 2011 in an educational conference in London the education minister of the puppet regime of Kabul acknowledged that the so called armed opposition is not against the education of boys and girls. Similarly the professional deputy minister of this office told the media that the schools are destroyed by some criminal gangs and not by the Taliban. At the same time we would like to say that on 22nd February in Kashkot area of Khewa district one teacher and 9 students were injured in the indiscriminate shelling of helicopters by the invading forces. But the stooge media have turned a blind eye over all these facts and realities.
he fact is that recently the invading forces have martyred and burnt innocent civilians and children in Zangawat area of Panjwai district and prior to that they have humiliated the bodies of the martyrs. Similarly in Bagram air base they committed the unpardonable act of disgracing the Holy Quran. Now the invaders and their local stooges try to divert the attention of the Afghan nation as well as of the international community from their barbaric deeds and crimes by these kinds of planed issues of infecting the girls.
The Islamic Emirate once again declares that these and likewise dire incidents are carried out by some intelligence agencies including the intelligence agency of the puppet admin of Kabul by the name of national security.
The policy of Mujahedeen is palpable i.e. armed resistance against the invading forces and their supporters till the liberation of the country.
Moreover false allegations of the invaders and their hired media against Mujahedeen are the part of the media war and have no reality.
The Islamic Emirate declares its complete acquittal and says that this kind of criminals will be penalized according to the Islamic Law where ever arrested inside the country.
"I think most of my regular readers are aware that I spent last weekend at a peak oil event. There have been plenty of those over the last decade or so, but this one, The Age of Limits, was a bit unusual: it started from from the place where most other peak oil events stop, with the recognition that the decline and fall of industrial civilization is the defining fact of our time.
Its ironic, to use no stronger term, that this should be the point at which so much discussion of peak oil stops, because its also the place where that conversation began some fifteen years ago, at the very dawn of todays peak oil movement.
Back then, as conversations about the limits to growth were getting started again for the first time since the twilight of the 1970s, most participants in those early discussions seem to have grasped that the industrial world would either rise to the challenge of peak oil and undergo the wrenching process of shortage and reallocation that a successful downshift of energy consumption would demand,
or plow face first into the brick wall of resource limits and crash to ruin. The debates then were over which of these would be chosen. At this point its painfully clear which way the decision has gone, but the discourse of peak oil by and large remains the same.
