BONN: BONN Conference started in Germany without their Prime member country Pakistan.Germany’s foreign minister on Monday opened a major conference on Afghanistan’s future, vowing that the international community won’t abandon the country after Nato combat troops pull out in 2014.
 “The goal of this conference will be to lay the groundwork for a free, secure and prosperous Afghanistan,” Guido Westerwelle told about 1,000 delegates from around the world gathered in the western city of Bonn.
Pakistan was seeming to be very important for this conference but due to NATO attack on Pakistan's tribal area Pakistan boycotted  this conference as a protest.

The involvement of Pakistan in this conference do not matter anything as USA is doing what it likes, it never consider Pakistan's suggestions on Afghanistan issue.USA always treated Pakistan as its slave not as its alliance.So participation of Pakistan in this conference will not affect directly but there is also have some negative impacts which can raised questions on credibility and importance of decisions made during this conference as one of the country whose contributed lot during Afghan war and who is also its major neighbor country is not participating in the conference.

NATO attacks on Pakistan can be raise a question that may be it is possible that cause behind NATO attack can be to rid Pakistan from BONN conference and during conference NATO countries are planning some thing against Pakistan so they make Pakistan away from the conference and also wanting to kick Pakistan from their alliance.

Their is also some news in the circle that NATO is going to attack Pakistan's tribal areas for searching Taliban commandos.So it'll definitely increase tension among Pakistan and USA as COAS Kiyani said that he has allowed border forces to take immediate action on any attack from NATO forces. 

Pakistan seems to be Bone in the US alliance and kicking Pakistan from alliance could be danger for USA as their is two ways for NATO supplies for their equipments and other stuffs.One is from Pakistan but they have now tension with it and second is through Russia but Russia didn't forget 1980's Soviet Afghan war when USA helps Pakistan to break Russian federation into tiny parts.So Russia is also don't want to leave this opportunity.

So if USA lost the war and starts exit from Afghanistan in upcoming years with broken hands they will be 2nd Super power who 'll defeated by PAKISTAN.So they can't took Pakistan as a "Piece of Cake" as it can be cause them as a "Piece of Rock" which can break their teeth.

Judaism and Islam side by side

On Sunday night, the fashion collective Three as Four opened its highly anticipated exhibition “Insalaam Inshalom” at the Beit Ha’Ir Center for Urban Culture in Tel Aviv, bringing to fruition a project over two years in the making. Covering the walls of the four-story building in fabric printed with their spring collection’s central motifs, which are made of a mix of Muslim and Jewish symbols, the designers Gabi Asfour, Adi Gil and Ange Donhauser invited 10 artists to show works that relate to the project’s central notion: that Judaism and Islam can live side by side. “We’ve accumulated the energy of artists and performers who are like-minded,” Asfour said. “We tried to balance things from all sides, though it’s always difficult.”
Featured in the show are pieces by Yoko Ono, Joseph Dadoune and Jessica Mitrani, to name a few. Installations, video works, textiles and photography are among the works on display throughout the center’s “Insalaam Inshalom”-patterned walls. The performers at Sunday’s event included the Cyprus-born, New York-based director/choreographer Maria Hassabi, who wore cotton overalls from the Three as Four collection. Carrying a rolled-up rug on her slight frame, she slowly made her way down a flight of stairs into a cramped performance area, stopping every few seconds in different sculptural positions. Having arrived, she released the rug behind her back and wrapped herself in it as in a cape. At other moments she lay on it as well as under it as if it were a blanket.
As usual, Three as Four opted for a less formal fashion show, with a backgammon board acting as a centerpiece onstage, with mannequins dressed in pieces from the collection positioned around it. Models entered the central space to stand between the forms, then took turns walking over to a low table, sitting down, rolling the dice and moving the pieces of the board game. After each turn, one model would get up and take the place of another — a collective game of musical chairs.
“Fashion and beauty are tools to promote togetherness and unity in different countries and cultures,” Gil said. “We hope we can inspire other people to work together and not be scared of working together.”
The fashion collective’s members are themselves products of multiple cultures and identities: Asfour was born to parents from Mandate-era Haifa, who fled to Beirut; Gil was born and raised in Israel before moving to Germany and then New York; and Donhauser is a Soviet-born Russian-German who moved to Germany in childhood. Donhauser met Gil in Germany, and they met Asfour in New York, where they had moved to seek a more culturally diverse setting.
“I’m the middleman in the Middle East,” joked Donhauser, who adds that she’s glad she finally made it to Tel Aviv. “I’m closer to understanding how meshugeneh it all is. You shake your head and say: It’s all so human after all.”
