The conflict In Afghanistan has become one of the major discussions in the United States, where the political leaders and policymakers, Republican and Democratic, conservative and liberal all attentive about this troublesome geopolitical threat.
It has become an across-the-board agreement which is shared because of all the suggestions of the war in Afghanistan on regional security in South and Central Asia and on constancy in neighboring Pakistan, which is a dangerously unstable nuclear-armed state.
The American politicians across the ideological continuum has also recognized the need to keep away from the formation of another breeding ground for radical Islam as expressed through organizations like the Taliban, al-Qaida and Hizb ut-Tahrir in a country that is increasingly prohibited by guerrillas either from these terrorist organizations or extremely sympathetic to them.

Earthquake in Italy
There has been a major earthquake near Pescara Italy and Rome in the middle of the night on Monday, April 6th. The earthquake in central Italy has struck about 50 miles northeast of Rome, 70 miles southeast of Perugia, and 70 miles directly south of Ancona.
The nearest small town is Pescaro Italy in the Abruzzo region. The quake initially measured 6.3 on the Richter scale at 3:30 am local time. The official strength is still unsettled as it was earlier described as 6.7. See more details here and here.
By comparison that is about the size of the Oakland, California earthquake in 1989 which collapsed a freeway and caved a section of the Bay Bridge.
Damage reports will be slow coming in but the earthquake is already described as ’significant’ with high damage to the old buildings in the area. It is still before 5:00 am local time, dark and cold.
At least 17 people are dead including four small children, and dozens are missing or unaccounted for. Entire buildings have collapsed while cracks and caved roofs are visible.
