RECENT FEATURES

Clinton apologist lobbies for Islamabad
Now Lanny J Davis is explaining why donations made to Hillary Clinton at a Pakistan fund-raiser may not have influenced the President's decision to visit Pakistan.

Clinton's visit may not change things: panel
Professor Phil Oldenburg of the Columbia Southern Asian Institute says American leaders never appreciated India's aspiration to be recognized as a world leader and that Indian diplomats made matters worse by looking down on Americans.
