The article deals with various socio-political developments around the world. The occupation of Palestinian territories by Israel. Against the backdrop of Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's scorched-earth invasion, there was an air of unreality about U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell's diplomatic mission to the region. The trip ended with no forceful action or statements by Powell, and no sense that he had achieved anything other than buying time for the Israeli army to continue its incursions into the West Bank. Another issue discussed has been the corrupt practice of the U.S. tobacco industry. American tobacco companies smuggled cigarettes and laundered money on vast scale.
