Click videoliners.com to see interview with Katie Marton about his husband Holbrooke Holbrooke was omnivorous in his associations, his reading and his appreciation of life. His friends all had "Holbrooke stories" about his excesses, his vanities, his jealousies and his enormous capacity to keep their friendship and, just as important, his own sense of humor. Whatever else he was -- and he was a writer, diplomat, editor, banker, publisher and impresario of numerous organizations -- he was a deeply serious man engaged always in the serious business of saving lives -- in Vietnam, in Afghanistan, in Bosnia.

US Special Representative for Pakistan and Afghanistan Richard Holbrooke was in Pakistan at a crucial juncture, when the regional situation is changing fast, and the allied forces are in search of a safe exit from Afghanistan. On January 22, 2009, Washington appointed Richard Charles Albert Holbrooke as a special envoy to Pakistan and Afghanistan. A tough task for the Holbrook. The US trouble shooter Richard Holbrook has been credited for his role in bringing an end to the Bosnian civil war, and has been assistant secretary of state twice. But the present assignment might be his toughest yet. Since his appointment violence and terrorism in the region has been on the rise. The Special Envoy wants long-term relations between Washington and Islamabad and sustainable economic development in Pakistan. The US's new extra security screening has come as a new threat for the innocent travellers to the US. But Holbrooke says it's not discriminatory or Pakistan specific. Although analysts believe America's troop surge in Afghanistan is likely to afffect Pakistan adversely, the US is determined to stay the course. Experts also say President Obama's surge-and-exit Afghan strategy tried to please both left the and right in the US, but a military solution is not the answer. Official sources say Holbrooke is in Pakistan for pre-London conference meetings. A political solution can be found, however, by bringing together all the players in the region, as is going to happen in the upcoming ...

Madeeha Anwar, Urdu VOA News, Washington The third round of high level US-Pakistan Strategic Dialogue ends today. Addressing media and civil society members yesterday at the Brookings Institute, Pakistan's foreign minister Mr. Shah Mehmud Qureshi emphasized the importance of combined efforts against terrorism in the region and said, "Let me be clear, we do not seek dependency. We seek economic viability. We need trade, not just aid." While President Obama's Special Representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan, Mr. Holbrooke said, "We don't work with Pakistan because of Afghanistan. We work on Pakistan because of Pakistan itself; because of Pakistan's importance to the world, to stability in South Asia." They both reaffirmed that the dialog represents the shared commitment of the US and Pakistan to transforming the bilateral relationship into a broad partnership capable of addressing challenges as they arise.

A former NATO officer claims US Special Forces have conducted secret raids inside Pakistan's border regions. The operations were conducted between 2003 and 2008, but only one was ever made public. According to reports, troops were looking for high value targets among both the Taliban and Al-Qaeda. The one that became widely known in September 2008 was condemned as a provocation by the Pakistani government. Ethnic groups from Pakistans Belugistan province where most of the raids occurred blame the government in Islamabad for allowing these things to happen, said RT LIVE investigative journalist Webster Tarpley. He pointed out that President Obamas West point speech of December 2 is a thinly veiled declaration of war against Pakistan in the sense that it announces the intent of the US to promote the dismemberment, the partition of Pakistan along ethnic lines and in order to do that you have to create trouble on the ground. Ambassador Richard Holbrook, who is the US tsar for the region, was asked Do you have troops in Pakistan? and he said The US has intelligence personnel in Pakistan but not troops. And I would ask What about the contractors, Mr Ambassador? asked Tarpley. Webster Tarpley disclosed information published in The Nation and Vanity Fair magazines about Blackwater Select and Total Intelligence Solutions having massive snatch and grab and even assassination operations run out of Karachi, Pakistans largest city, under the command of the US Joint Special Operations ...
scene from the 1972 made-for-tv movie "That Certain Summer" A teenager must deal with his divorced father's homosexuality in this made-for-tv movie written by the Emmy-winning writing team of Richard Levinson and William Link (Columbo, Mannix). Hal Holbrook stars as a middle-aged divorced man, whose son played by Scott Jacoby cannot fathom the reason for his parents' split. During a summer visit, Jacoby meets his father's much-younger "best friend," played by Martin Sheen. Holbrook hedges, but finds he can no longer hold back the truth from his son: Sheen is Holbrook's male lover. Originally telecast on November 1, 1972, That Certain Summer was the first TV film to take a mature and non-remonstrative approach to the subject of homosexuality.

Colombia, ¿Afganistán de América Latina? Hace más de una década sostenemos que la guerra mundial contra las drogas es una guerra de baja intensidad que está siendo instrumentalizada por la primera potencia mundial, Estados Unidos, con fines geopolíticos. Las intervenciones militares estadounidenses en Afganistán y ahora en Colombia donde instalará 7 bases militares son las pruebas que confirman nuestra hipótesis. Porque de no tener este objetivo, la guerra que estalló durante el gobierno de Richard Nixon (1969-1974) y alcanzó una extensión planetaria en el gobierno de Ronald Reagan (1981-1989) que consideraba a las drogas una amenaza letal para la seguridad de Estados Unidos luego de la caída del Muro de Berlín, el 9 de noviembre de 1989, hubiera sido objeto de un cambio profundo. Porque después de cuatro décadas nunca alcanzó sus objetivos de controlar, disminuir y menos erradicar la oferta y la demanda de las drogas ilegales. La invasión norteamericana de Afganistán (octubre del 2001 a la fecha) tuvo básicamente tres objetivos: capturar a Osama Bin Laden, derrotar a los talibanes y erradicar los sembríos de amapola. A la fecha, ni Bin Laden ha sido capturado, tampoco los talibanes han sido expulsados y ahora de 500 hectáreas de amapola que existían en el momento de la invasión, hay 100 mil hectáreas. Richard Holbrook, enviado personal del presidente Barack Obama, ha tenido que aceptar que las políticas occidentales contra el cultivo de opio, el cultivo de amapola, han ...
