President Biden announced that all its forces would withdraw from Afghanistan on 11 Sept 2021. Nato allies soon
announced they would follow suit. Since then there has been a surge in violence across the country. The government,
the US & Nato blame the Taliban, a hardline Islamist movement, who they say have so far failed to live up to
commitments to reduce violence - an allegation the group denies. 20 years in Afghanistan: Was it worth it? 'We have
won the war, America has lost' Der Spiegel first reported that German troops had a huge surplus of alcohol at their
bases in the country. German soldiers are normally allowed 2 cans of beer per day, or an equivalent measure of other

Once upon a time...a small boy named Basheer lived in a tiny Moroccan village. All his classmates hated him for his
stupidity...especially his teacher who was always yelling at him "you are driving me crazy
Basheer" One day his mother went to check out how he is doing at school and the teacher
told her honestly that her son is simply a disaster, getting very low marks in exams and never
had she seen such a dumb boy in her whole career. The mother could not accept such a
feedback and she took her son out from that school. She even shifted to another city. 25
years later, that same teacher had a cardiac disorder and she was advised to undergo an
open heart surgery. It was a complex surgery which only one surgeon could perform. Left with
no other choice, she travelled to consult the surgeon and the surgery was successful. When
she opened her eyes, she saw a handsome doctor smiling at her. She wanted to thank him
but being under the effect of anesthesia, she could not talk. he doctor too was staring at her
face which had started turning ominously blue. She was raising her hand trying to tell him
something but in vain and eventually died. The doctor was shocked and was trying to
understand what just happened, till he turned back and saw our friend Basheer working as a
sweeper in that hospital, who had unplugged the ventilator to connect his vacuum cleaner. If
you were thinking that Basheer became a doctor, it is because you have been watching too
many movies, TV series or have read too many motivational messages on social media.
Basheer is Basheer.
