[So how come they haven`t sold out Bin Laden and Al-Zawahiri for $ 50 million?]

The ``goras`` think you`ll sell your mothers for a few thousand bucks.. in your cae, probably the cost of a latte..

So how come they haven`t sold out Bin Laden and Al-Zawahiri for $ 50 million?

Point duly taken and acknowledged. Reason like yours must prevail.

And I forgot to add the main one:

4) Remind mushy baby that now on he was on the choke leash.

``dawood after all is a state-guest and prolly is used by uncle sam as a card they would like to play at an opportune time.``

Good observation Jang. Note the whole AQ Khan issue. The AQ Khan network activitites beyond Pakistan were known since atleast the mid-nineties, but observe how the Americans used it as part of a coordinated stategy to:
1) Enmesh the Iraninans in on-proliferation issues
2) Totally emasculate the clueless Libyans
3) Raise the bar for further Chinese assistance to the Pakistani program (both civil and military).

very masterfully played! The Dawood card will be played similarly when appropriate.

#231 faisal you can also give some money to an indian memebr of parliament, and he will cause uproar on paki issue of your choice. this will be a good will gesture, since paki banana-republic parliament cant discuss trivial issues like bombing of their own citizens. they canonly form resolutions on cartoons.

#156 hp i dont think the paki establishment is not foshing in the troubled waters out of good will, they do their best. dawood after all is a state-guest and prolly is used by uncle sam as a card they would like to play at an opportune time. indian muslim and non-muslim relationships are good 99% of the time not because of lack of trouble causing, but inspite of trouble causing.

as is evident lately, indians have not caused any lawlessness inspite of serious provokations because they understant that its the work of troublemakers, and not of entire community. so, as we say in india, the truth shall prevail. your petty trouble making is assumed and we shall deal with it .. punjab trouble ceased when the pujabi community took care of the separatists, and that will be the case here as well.

for pakistanis, indians = pigs

Uproar in Assembly over gastro deaths

Mumbai, March 18: Following an uproar in the Legislative Assembly on Saturday over the gastroenteritis outbreak in South Mumbai, Speaker Babasaheb Kupekar directed the state government to convene a meeting of elected representatives and officials concerned to discuss preventive and adequate measures to be undertaken.

...Raising the issue in the House, Nationalist Congress Party Member of Legislative Assembly (MLA) Bashir Patel pointed out that despite three deaths and 612 persons admitted to hospitals, the government wasn’t taking any action.

Cholera not ruled out, gastro still worrying

A worrying 22 fresh cases of gastroenteritis cropped up from shanties along P D’Mello Road on Saturday, all of them now admitted in St George Hospital. The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) is checking pipelines and community water connections in the area.

The cumulative total of gastroenteritis admissions in city hospitals since Monday went up to 332, while 67 patients have been discharged. On an average, Mumbai sees about 20 cases a day even during fairweather conditions, said civic sources. Saturday’s fresh admissions were nearly 45.

i have beaten this pagal kutta rather badly. he has lost his comprehension abilities another reason being the sick fucker spends all his time fantasizing about pakistani men.

pakistanis, please read my post #226 again. in that post, there is clear acknowlegdgement from chowk-staff that my profile was hacked. i provided details to chowk-staff on who did it but they did not do anything even though hacking of websites based in the u.s. is a federal offence. also please note chowk`s privacy policy:

``Chowk respects your right to the privacy of the personal information you provide us on our Web site. To that end, any personal information you provide to Chowk.com will be known only to two parties: you and Chowk.``

note that chowk-staff is not taking action against people who are violating this policy. obviously hackers can get personal details from chowk`s website. chowk-staff by not acting against them clearly indicate what they think of their privacy policy.

bottom line is these people are aasteen ka saanph so be careful.

For Americans, paki = terrorist..

Father and son removed from flight

By Our Correspondent

WASHINGTON, March 19: A Pakistani and his son have filed a complaint with US federal officials claiming they were removed from a flight because of their appearance. Fazal Khan, 59, and Mohammed Khan, 28, boarded a SkyWest Airlines flight from Los Angeles to Oakland, California, on Jan 31, 2006, wearing white skullcaps, tunics and loose trousers. Both men also have long beards.

Attorney Shirin Sinnar of the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights in San Francisco said the men had been told to leave their seats before the flight took off and escorted back to the terminal.

“They were essentially told, ‘You can’t take this flight because the flight attendant is uncomfortable’,” the lawyer said.

The men took a later flight to San Francisco International Airport. SkyWest, a regional feeder airline, operates some flights booked with the United Express service of United Airlines.

United Airlines spokesman Jeff Green said the company was investigating the complaint. Utah-based SkyWest is responsible for staff on the aircraft, he said.

So if your password is encrypted, it means only you could have put up the liberace thing on your profile.

So how does it feel to be out of the closet?

Meanwhile, the majority of India`s women have to wait until after it gets dark before they answer the call of nature. Less than a third of Indian homes have an indoor toilet.

haha...gotcha...i sent an email to chowk-staff using a ficticious id to see if they would pass it to the indians. and just as i suspected, they did which pretty much tells us pakistanis what we need to know about people behind this website. btw here is chowk-staff`s reply to my email:

talking about dignity, check out what goras think of india:

No, I’m not paranoid but there are mornings when it strikes me that my auto rickshaw is always the slowest vehicle on the highway. Trucks and buses roar past us as we struggle up the eight-lane freeway at a determined, leisurely pace and I have all the time in the world to watch an immaculately clad businessman holding his briefcase in one hand taking a piss into the roadside bushes.

Manto`s rag has an op-ed on the famel-of-canine-species slap Dubya gave Pakiland..

VIEW: Dignity as a nation — Syed Mansoor Hussain

President George W Bush came to Pakistan for a day. It seems that this trip was meant to humiliate Pakistan and make President General Pervez Musharraf look bad. The New York Times in its editorial on March 7, 2006 stated that: “It’s baffling why Mr Bush travelled halfway around the world to stand right next to one of his most important allies against terrorism — and embarrass him.” The NYT is not the only one baffled, so are most Pakistanis.

The geopolitical significance of this visit, if any, is a matter for experts to discuss and analyse. What made me sit up and take notice of it all was a comment made by the son of a dear friend. This young man, an Ivy League graduate and a successful businessman who is also well informed about politics said something very sad about this visit. He wanted to know if we as Pakistanis had no dignity left. What this visit exposed for all to see is that indeed as a country we have no dignity when it comes to our relations with the US.

In my opinion Pakistan’s attitude towards the US can only be understood in the context of our cultural background. A quick read of any of our poets or a visit to one of our movies would illustrate my point. It is all about the lover and the beloved. The beloved is expected to be fickle, uncaring and above all cruelly inconsiderate. This relationship is best depicted in the stories about courtesans and their patrons. Metaphorically, Pakistan is the courtesan and the US the rich man who patronises her.

He comes by whenever he feels the need but she sits there obsessing about him. He gets satisfaction and pays her for it but she weaves a fantasy around his visits and creates a world where he cares for only her and nobody else. She expects him to be fickle and uncaring but knows in her hear that such indifference is just an act. She believes that in his heart she is the one he really desires and thinks about all the time. Most of all, she ignores the financial aspect of the relationship.

To understand what happened when President George W Bush visited Pakistan, we perhaps have to revisit the metaphor of the courtesan and her patron. The patron made a big show of his new relationship with the country next door and then spent a night in Pakistan. The message he wanted to give to Pakistan was a simple one. I don’t really care about you as much as you think I do, so please get over it!

Here I must admit some sympathy for the US point of view. I am sure they are getting a little tired of Pakistanis asking them to put things right in Pakistan. Once we decide as Pakistanis that it is we who are responsible for putting things right in our country and set about to do so, we might regain some of our lost dignity as a nation.
