BOOK REVIEW : Political whores go biblical
Diary of a Jetsetting Call Girl by Tracy Quan This saucy diary rises like a French bedroom souffle, baked at a high heat, Provence style. But it is often more perspicacious than sexy, using a galaxy of well-drawn characters to passionately tease out the real human emotions and politics of sex work. It also juxtaposes these realities with biblical introspection on Mary Magdalene, the patron saint of all call girls, even ones with $2,500 handbags and Manhattan banker husbands. - Muhammad Cohen (No..

COMMENT : Empty promises in Afghanistan
The exodus of Afghan refugees began 30 years ago when Soviet tanks rolled over their villages. More Afghans fled the proxy conflicts that consumed their homeland throughout the 1990s. Since the fall of the Taliban, more than 5 million Afghans have returned, only to find shortages of land, shelter, jobs and food. As Afghan diplomat and former refugee M Ashraf Haidari explains, many are at the breaking point. (Nov 21,'08)

DISPATCHES FROM AMERICA : Stuff happens in Iraq
The United States military has the ultimate argument against a reasonable withdrawal from Iraq. Its strength lies in that it has nothing to do with the vicissitudes of Iraqi politics, the relative power of Shi'ites or Sunnis, the influence of Iran, or even the riptides of war. It is the simple fact that logistically there is so much "stuff" in Iraq that withdrawal would take at least three years. - Tom Engelhardt (Nov 21,'08)

ASIA HAND : Judicial coup murmurs in Thailand
If Thailand's Constitution Court rules next week to disband the ruling party, a perceived loophole in the constitution could then be exploited to deepen the "judicialization" of Thai politics. This could allow conservative forces to gain power without resorting to an unpopular military putsch. - Shawn Crispin (Nov 21,'08)

China's party hardliners want the last word
In another sign of political tensions in the Chinese Communist Party, the Ministry of Culture has told the publisher of a prominent political magazine to quit after it praised Zhao Ziyang, a former party chief purged in 1989 for refusing to condone the Tiananmen Square incident. The ministry politely told Du Daozheng, 85, to go as he is "quite elderly, and quite tired", but he has vowed to never water down his editorial line. - Verna Yu (Nov 21,'08)

IT WORLD : Morro's another day for Microsoft
Microsoft is to introduce free security software for personal computers and discontinue its subscription-based anti-bug service. The switch to Morro is due next year - which is a little too late for the surge in virus attacks and spyware intrusions expected in the US in the next few days in the run-up to Thanksgiving. (Nov 21,'08) Martin J Young surveys the week's developments in computing, gaming and gizmos.

India turns up energy diplomacy
Visits by senior Indian politicians to Moscow and Tehran underscore New Delhi's determination to improve access to fuel resources. In both cases, the discussions indicate more energy will have to be spent before sought-after deals are secured. - Siddharth Srivastava

THE MOGAMBO GURU : Corporate earnings go cliff-diving
Almost everything in the US economy is falling off a cliff, from retail sales to electric power to factory shipments, or going up in smoke, from jobs to companies. And now earnings of surviving corporations are down to almost half of what they were a year ago. Which all proves the insanity of investing in stocks for the long term!!

Faith in India's army shaken by blasts
Following investigations into recent bomb blasts in India, the hand of Hindu right-wing organizations in terrorist attacks has been laid bare. The probes also reveal the involvement of a handful of serving and retired army officers, indicating that the staunchly secular and apolitical military may be infected by the communal virus. - Sudha Ramachandran (Nov 21,'08)

The black hole in financial markets
Americans are beginning to understand how much of their economy depended on the housing bubble. The collapse of housing prices has led to a collapse of consumer spending, which leads to a rise in unemployment, which in turn erodes the value of commercial property - and so the destruction of wealth spreads. Barack Obama will take office as the most powerful peacetime president in US history - he will be the only man in town with a checkbook. - David P Goldman (Nov 21,'08)

Great game of hunting pirates
Under the rubric of the fight against sea piracy, an entirely different template of maritime activity is taking place by interventionist powers. The United States, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and the European Union have stepped out of the European theater and entered the Indian Ocean, as has India. Russia is seeking a reopening of its Soviet-era naval base in Aden. There is a strong suspicion a great game is unfolding. - M K Bhadrakumar (Nov 21,'08)
