NEW DELHI – For nearly 30 years, India and Bangladesh have argued over control of a tiny rock island in the Bay of Bengal. Now rising sea levels have resolved the dispute for them: the island's gone.


New Moore Island in the Sunderbans has been completely submerged, said oceanographer Sugata Hazra, a professor at Jadavpur University in Calcutta. Its disappearance has been confirmed by satellite imagery and sea patrols, he said.

or the dalai lama in his interview with Christine Amanpour: "it is all man's folly." We imagine that what we do has meaning.

CNN'S Amanpour and Pro Palestinian Bias

A few nights ago I watched Christiane Amanpour, of CNN, interview Mosab Hassan Yousef, son of a Hamas founder. Mosab recently revealed that he worked as an agent for Israel's Shin Bet security service. 


He told Amanpour that he was against hate and for love and that he worked as an agent, "to save lives."  


Amanpour pressed the issue and asked, "yes, but how did it save Palestinian lives?" 


Was she implying that one only attempts to stop a suicide bombing on a bus-load of civilians if they are your own group? Would she have asked a double agent of the USA, "how did it save Afghani lives?" I doubt that. But if someone helps a bus-load of Jews not get blown up, it would only make sense if it somehow only saved the Jews as a byproduct of helping his own people.
