Politics trumps everything...well almost!

- Current middle east crisis (Israel Vs. Hamas) - Politics - with elections round the corner, this could be Ehud Olmert's PR effort under the veil of security.

- Crisis between Russia and Georgia - Politics

- US' strikes on Iraq - WMD? Nope - Politics (Oil)

- Russia-Ukraine Gas issue - Ukraine defaulting to pay? - perhaps, but mainly Russian politics as a retaliation to Ukraine's plans of joining NATO

- US's unwavering support to Israel (where 40 people were killed by 6400 rockets in the last 2 years) as against requesting India to show restraint (where nearly 200 are killed on average) every month by terrorists - Politics! - to maintain a balance in the middle east!

- Delay in getting the Nuclear Treaty between India and US signed - Politics - from the enigmatic Left Front!

So, what entity is so powerful as to predate Political influence - Religion!
