  2. I really enjoyed your documentary. The subject coverage is superb, with no bias,and preconceived ideas. I am very impressed. You presented the facts. It is up to the listener what they get out of these facts.

    Thanks

  3. Good, unbiased, article. History is probably being made, once again, in Pakistani refugee camps. I hope both Pak and US governments are paying close attention to what is going on at the camps. I hope another Taliban like movement does not emerge from this camp.

    Peace!
