SPECIAL EDITORIAL

It’s now or never

he terrorist attacks on selective American targets must not be seen through narrow geographical or nationalist angularities. These cowardly and barbaric acts go against the very tenets that humanity stands for. Our hearts, in the first instant, go out to the thousands of innocent persons who have lost their lives or got injured in New York and Washington by the hijacked planes used as flying suicide squads by unidentified terrorists.
