UA community reacts to airstrikes

Some say bombings were unnecessary, but others support whatever action is needed

"Afghan people have nothing. They don't deserve to be bombed by America," Shahin said. "Two wrongs don't make a right. Killing innocent people is not acceptable."

Nasim did not lie

The revolution that wasn't?

Has it been 10 years already?

The anniversary hasn't attracted much attention in the wake of Sept. 11, but it was this time of year in 1991 when an obscure band from Seattle called Nirvana released its major-label debut. The album was called Nevermind, and for a relatively brief period of time, it seemed like it would change the music world for good.
