One also need keep in mind that unless there is some vested interest in those
regions, there will be just a trickle of news that is reported. India has been
running a holocaust of Nazi proportions in Kashmir for the past 3 years, but
only rarely do you ever hear of it. And when you do, there is never any follow
up to it. It does not exactly make for awareness when the press is reporting on
it every 4-6 weeks. 

As for Afghanistan, now that the USSR is out, and also that the election in
this country is over, what does the US care about Afghanistan? There is nothing
there for them either. In this country, unless there is a MAJOR interest on the
part of the US, don't expect to see a great deal of media coverage.

Hmm. Maybe hyperbole is just part of the culture.

From reports I've picked up over shortwave, the situation is extremely
serious with human rights down the drain for the Moslem population.
The reports of extreme brutality are matched only by the lack of reports
on the situation in this country's controlled media.
