Al Maarri
Abu-l-Ala al-Maarri (973-1058) is an Arab freethinking poet who lived in Syria and Iraq. A poet who wrote commentaries, elegies, and religious tracts, he was a skeptic and cynic.
Abu-l-Ala was born in Maarra, a small town in northern Syria near Aleppo; his family was highly respected. He received a good education for his day, in spite of the fact that he was partially blinded by smallpox at the age of 4. Syria was recognized at that time as a highly intellectual and cultural area, and Abu-l-Ala received his education in Aleppo, Tripoli, and Antioch under the best Syrian scholars. He seems to have studied to be a professional encomiast like his predecessor al-Mutanabbi but soon rejected this calling because of his proud nature.
Soon after the age of 20 Abu-l-Ala returned to Maarra, where he lived off the fees he received from his pupils until 1010. He then moved to Baghdad, the intellectual center of Islam. But he left after 19 months because he refused to write flattering verses for those in power. This period was the turning point in his life. To date, he had won distinction as an erudite savant and as an accomplished poet in the style of al-Mutanabbi, a poet he admired. But Abu-l-Ala's great works appear only after his visit to Baghdad. His later poetry is filled with many unorthodox ideas that he could have come across only in Baghdad.
He reached his hometown to find his mother had died. This affected him immensely. It is said that afterward he lived in a cave and adopted ascetic habits. He was nicknamed "the double prisoner" because of his blindness and seclusion.
But Abu-l-Ala's fame continued to draw students to him. He eventually amassed great wealth in his retreat. He passed his last 40 years in retirement but not idleness. This is evident by his long list of compositions. He is best known for two collections of poems entitled Sakt al-Zand and Luzumiyat and for many letters.

Torture - We Have Ways of Making You Talk











Torture - We Have Ways of Making You Talk



Documentary : TV Rip : English
Category: Documentaries
Time : Approx. 60 Minutes

Topics: War / Violent Conflict, Political Institutions / Systems, Human Rights

Filmed in Algeria, France, Palestine, USA, Argentina, Uruguay,
South Africa and the UK, this
disturbing and candid BBC documentary explores the history of modern
interrogation techniques and the rise
of modern torture using revealing interviews with state interrogators and state torturers.
The legacy of this history continues to shapes our present, especially
in the United States, and some of these techniques have now become
routine in the war on terror - be it the use of dogs, water-boarding,
or sexual humiliation. This long, unbroken line of inhuman cruelty
connects Nazi Germany to Abu Ghraib, and is an essential issue in today's political landscape.
