New York Times Oct 21, 2001 The Roots: Afghan and Pakistani Tribe Lives By Its Own Set of Rules ABSTRACT: Short profile of the independent, militaristic culture of the Pashtun tribe, the dominant ethnic group in Afghanistan and northwest frontier area of Pakistan.
New York Times Sep 13, 2001 World War III QUOTE: something so absurdly futile and American about the curbside ban that I couldn't help but wonder: Does my country really understand that this is World War III?
