The painful search for reminders of Radovan

Article Abstract:

Many people, both Serb and Muslim, were forced to leave their homes during the civil war in former Yugoslavia. Many have been unable to return, as some villages have been totally destroyed and others are occupied by people from another ethnic group. It is very common for people to have lost all their family papers and items such as photographs. In some cases, it has been possible to retrieve these, but in many cases all trace of the family's existence has disappeared.

War wounded find comfort from billion-dollar man

Article Abstract:

Mohsen Rafiqdoost, one of the founders of the Revolutionary Guards, is one of the wealthiest men in Iran. In terms of power, he is second only to Iranian spiritual leader Ayatolla Ali Khamenei, and is in a position to shrug off a parliamentary inquiry into the extremely large charity which he controls. His influence also spreads a long way outside Iran's borders, with his foundation operating an extensive business empire in Europe and Asia.

The ayatollah is dead; long live the ayatollah

Article Abstract:

The simple grave of Ayatollah Khomeini has become a full-scale Islamic pilgrimage site. It is surrounded with souvenir stalls, restaurants and other facilities, and attracts many visitors. The Ayatollah's spirit still seems to control the Iranian nation, and his strong opposition to the US still prevails.
