    Although I don't agree with all of her stances, one has to admire her courage. She certainly has done a lot of good work for Human rights.

    Very good. They deserve this award for their courage and profound sense of decency.

    A well deserved recognition for Maryam, Ren. Then again you know what I think of her!

    Actually the last time I saw her on tv was a few months ago. She was involved in a debate on the BBC2 programme Newsnight, along with Benazir Bhutto.

    Jams; I would loved to have heard that discussion.

    I don't agree with her position on Pakistan. Everything she says about Bhutto are true, still groups like hers are best served working in the PPP. It like the Labor Party in the UK. You might not like what it does, but it beats starting a new party.

    I dont see any of the reactionaries over commenting on how Marxists are emancipating women and defending their rights...
