After 20 years, the result will be chaos and civil war
Tony Wright hits the nail on the head with his piece on the troop withdrawal (The Age, 16/4). Afghanistan, a country comprised of competing tribal and ethnic forces, is likely to descend into chaos and a civil war is likely to ensue. One only needs to look at Iraq for evidence of what happens when there are competing forces attempting to fill a power vacuum following a long war waged by international forces.

Power and predatory sexual behaviour
My elitist, boys secondary school education encouraged competitiveness and dominance.

The males of our species are naturally predatory which has led to social exploitation, with the upwardly mobile using and abusing those who have less power.

The foreshadowed Victorian Electoral Commission’s review of Legislative Assembly seat boundaries (‘‘Libs face election rout’’,
The Sunday Age, 3/1) does not need to be a population distribution juggle drawing arbitrary lines on maps, and in turn becoming a puzzle for the state’s main political parties based on a series of demographic variables in the pursuit of the retention of the two-party system.
