German Memories in Asia- Kaiser William II and His Diplomatic Chaos
But for Marita's frustration, it was not only Adolf Hitler but also the last German Emperor and the King of Prussia Kaiser William II too contributed a lot.
He ruled both the German Empire and Prussia since 15 June 1888 to 9 November 1918 and was viewed as the main personality in German history to determine the First World War. Though later on there was a confusion of his real influence on German policy, which led to the war. But his recklessness undoubtedly contributed a lot for the subsequent downfall of Imperial Germany. His premature attempt to rule the German Empire and Prussia at the age of 29 cost a lot to both nations.

German Memories- Holy Roman Empire era Thirty Years War to Napoleonic Wars & the Congress of Vienna
The reformation and Thirty Years War in German states from 1618 to 1648 totally ravaged the German Nation. The conflicts between Catholics and Protestants by their efforts in various states within the Holy Roman Empire to increase their power and the emperor's attempt to achieve religious and political unity of the empire caused the total devastation of the German Nation. The war resulted in a loss of something like a third of its population and large areas of the German Nation being laid waste.
Another major factor that threw the German Nation into a mess was the rivalry between Prussia and Austria for the leadership over other German states which began since 1640. After the Peace of Hubertsburg in 1763, Prussia too became equally powerful and exerted a powerful influence on German affairs.

Northern Ireland - A New Dawn and Strange Bedfellows
This week I watched a few of the speeches that heralded a new era in N. Irish politics, and I have to admit, it was an unsettling vision for an ex-Belfast man like myself. One-time fire breathing Protestant rabble rouser Ian Paisley was up on the podium, shoulder to shoulder with Martin McGuinness, one-time provisional IRA commander in Derry.

Did Howard Dean Cook The Books on His Presidential E-Donations - We Need Transparency from Howey
During Howard Dean's Presidential Run, which turned into a Media Disaster when he acted like a mad man and went berserk he made a name for himself using the Internet to get campaign contributions. This was all prior to the Democrat Party promoting him to their highest position. You may recall that he received millions of dollars literally overnight, which supposedly came from individual donors.

No Penalty for Early Withdrawal
The more gullible of us are expected to believe that disaster will ensue in the wake of troop withdrawal. Insurgents, and civil war, will tear apart the fragile fabric of the infantile Iraqi society.
What this really means is that the unpopular puppets and collaborators, whose power in Baghdad derives entirely from the barrels of American guns, will fall faster than Enron stock without our dupes to support them.

A Chimp Off The Ole' Block!
At first glance this may seem not to be a political article about a politically hot issue, but it is!
In fact, this is one of the most far reaching case ever taken to a court. And the problem, as I see it, is that the court is European Court of Human Rights! And you know what that means! The implications to our very lives is enormous!

Kennedy's Legacy
John Kennedy's true legacy is not measured by any political decisions of his administration, but by the social revolutions that were the inevitable consequence of the mix of optimism and crisis that marked his presidency.

Japan- No Wrong in Respecting Your Ancestors
Despite the unexplainable bitter World War II has far-long ended, its negative effects are still prevalent, if I am not wrong, to a very few world states. To be precise, China and Japan are probably the two most obsessive with the abuses and legacies of the war.
