#237 Congratulations. You are the one thousandth Indian who has come to chowk to tell us pakis how he wants to have nothing to do with us. Pain of being told to go to hell in 1947 seems to be too much??

ha! ha!

Re: # 209 by tahmed

`I think Hoodbhoy`s suggestion makes a lot more sense. What can be more urgent than ``Truth`` in our society e.g.? But even this is not enough I think. As I suggested below to naqshbandi, instead of picking a few words devoid of context - what we need is a statement of national ideals - these would I think be in the form of universal ideals. Look at this preamble to the US constitution, e.g.

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Surely something like this is more meaningful than a set of disembodied words.



Oh phul-leeeeeeeez !

Goodness...dude like that overly patriotic colonel in a movie said: ``you can`t handle the truth``...so that`s out the window. Do you have the courage to accept the ``truth`` in the Quran that you were created for nothing but to worship Allah? And that you have to worship as is His Right to be worshiped; i.e. following in the footsteps of Prophet (PBUH) every step of the way? Go hide behind lame old ``religion is a personal thing`` comment........LoL

For ``diversity`` to flourish in Pakistan, worshipers of the West need to acknowledge that Pakistanis are different, and the crumbling Western system cannot be forced upon them as a turnkey solution - covertly or overtly, through the self-proclaimed intelligentsia or the military dictators.

And so much for ``creativity`` when a dying ``Western`` machinery is advertised to be the best solution this country needs. No wonder the sinister Indians wish Pakistan adopted the Western/American values ASAP.

Dr. Hoodbhoy may not be insincere, and his scientific achievements notwithstanding, but I agree with the ones who say he has no idea what he`s talking about, except that such fancy buzzwords may enchant some impressionable passing out youth to keep them dozing off during the speech....note the emphasis on ``some``.

As a scientist he is supposed to look at this nation as a system, in its entirety, as a whole. He`s only addressed economy, education, and only one aspect of the social system - truth, which has to be the common denominator in every aspect of individual and collective life of this nation. Go out on the streets and a matric fail would prescribe the exact same solution. One can ill-afford to ignore the rest of the components as he has, i.e. foreign affairs, the defense, the healthcare, and the rest of the social system. All these components have to work with perfect synchronization for the society to move ahead. Otherwise, you`ll only prolong the pain and witness the breakdown sooner than you anticipate.

Given a choice over a proven and flopped out guzzler like USA, which requires repair every step of the way, I`d rather drive the Suzuki Alto.

With friends like you, Pakistan does not need an enemy.

Re: # 234

I am also of the view that India`s parttion in 1947 was good for Indians. I shudder to think what would have happened in undivided India in 2006. All the big powers would have gunned for Indians and Indian Government calling the terrorists.

Re:behram1#202

[..nothing..]

Bawaji, how are you? Its a pity that you are still in a read-only mode. I miss you, man. Without your rants and raves, chowk is a boring place.

Bawaji, please use your considerable affirmative action skills to bypass the merit criteria of the chowk editors. He He!!

Or you could change your nick to behram2.....

Re:Sanatani#232

[..I still admire Mr J very much. And answer one question why is he a `rakta-shoshee pishaach
`. And if he is one how would you have countered him in 1946 after direct action day. ...]

Shriman, now you are talking in a language that I can comprehend. Mr. Jinnah deserves to get the Bharat Ratna, he is the real father of the nation for India. It was due to his tireless efforts, even threats of violence (direct action day) that the lion share of India went to the hindus to rule without any competition.

We hindus got the maximum possible land, even Kashmir, all the major cities (except Lahore and Karachi, which were small towns in those days anyway), all the natural resources possible, a buffer from Islamic world on the west, reduction of muslim minority to an insignificant number that lives in permanent apology for Pakistan, Delhi, Hyderabad, Taj Mahal, Bollywood, you name it. We hindus got rid of the mindless pathans and baloch of NWFP and Baluchistan. We got rid of east Bengal and the vast numbers of bhooka nanga bengali muslims. This was just too good to be true.

Sardar Patel and Nehru must have been rolling on the floor laughing while Jinnah was going blue in the face fighting for Pakistan. What a brilliant effort to make muslims irrelevant in the subcontinent!! No RSS or Shiv Sena leader could ever do for hindus what Jinnah did for us. To top of it off, we hindus even broke Pakistan apart in 1971 to truly reduce them to complete irrelevence in the subcontinent.

Now the Pakis are begging for ``compromise`` in Kashmir, becharas. Notice the complete disdain and silence from Indian side to the beggings and pleadings from Musharraf. Musharraf is even trying to reach out to hindus in Pakistan, change curriculum and open doors with India. This is where we must be really cautious. We must NEVER undo partition in any manner and give up our dominating position in the subcontinent.

Gandhi was a total bewakoof who wanted to gift away India to muslims, he even invited Jinnah to take over as prime minister. If the old man had prevailed and given in to Muslim League demands for constitutional equality, India would be ruled by muslims today. Muslims would have kept their share and then formed alliances with backward castes, the Mulayams and Laloo prasads to take over Delhi. Thank God for Shri Jinnah!!

[....Shri 1008...Shri 540 Maharana....]

Is any of this Shri crap related to Shri 420?

Re: # 227

See pehle hum Manto ko shabashi dete the:

1) At least he talked of secularism. I am all for secularism so long it is not practiced in Shri Bharatvarsha. Secularism in Pak would harm islam helping us in our mission of getting them back to the Dharam.

2) He cared about Paki Hindus.

but then I realised that if Paki Hindus have friends like Manto it is equal to Maharishi Durvasa`s curse so I have no need for him.

For have not you, in the past, expressed your unadulated undulating admiration for Shri Manto’s UNFLICHING praise for the subcontinent’s very own version of that rakta-shoshee pishaach.

I still admire Mr J very much. And answer one question why is he a `rakta-shoshee pishaach
`. And if he is one how would you have countered him in 1946 after direct action day.

And pls remember to qualify your answer with your professed love for Indian musalis who according to you were left in the lurch by Shri J.

Regards
Sanatani

Re: # 230 Shri 51 Raja Sanatani Ju Deo

Mujhe yeh bhi bhalee bhaanti smaran hai ki vigat varsh tak aap Shrimant Manto Maharaj ke mahaan prashansak the, to yeh kyun aap un se achaanak vimukh ho gaye? Eisa kya ghatit hua is beech, Prabhu?

Re: # 229 Shri 51 Raja Sanatani Saheb

Prabhu yeh bhi samajh nahin aaya. Aap yeh beech mein jo Urdu/Arabi ka prayog na karen to badi kripa hogi Maharaj. Lekin lagta hai aap mera vadh karney ka aadesh de rahey hain. Aisa kya apraadh kiya is tuchchha maanav ne Maharaj? Aisa vikat krodh kis kaaran, Prabhu?

Re: # 225

Vaise,

Tis a pity I feel sometimes we are not musalis. Otherwise I could have accused you of La-deeniyat and Biddat (non religousity and innovation), thrown you outside the fold of Islam, compelled you do do tauba (repentance) and forced you do recite the kalima and do Nikaah (marriage) again.

BUT knowing WHAT TYPE OF A SHAMELESS CREATURE YOU ARE I KNOW YOU WOULD HAVE SAID PLeeeez Maulana/Ayatollah/Hojat-e-Islam Sanatani please for Ishwars and Bhagwans sake pleeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzz throw me out of the fold of Islam and then I would have declared you Musharik (Apostate) and Wajib ul Qatal (worthy of murder).

After 3 hours your namaz-e-jahnaza (prayer of coffin [literal transalation actually burial]) would be done. Strangely after your qatal you wouyld be deemd to be purified and be Musali again to go and met ul-lah and his errand boy to face their wrath.

On second thoughts we are better of not being musali

Yours Holily
Shri 51 Raja Sanatani

I am waiting for apology to dangar, do it quickly otherwise hamara Krodh bharak jayega

That should have been

``Param priya mitra Sanatani,...``

As in ``Param veer chakra``.

And my dear Sanatani,

What is this stuff I hear you say about horse doo-doo exiting Shri Manto’s komal mukh?! It leaves me wondering!

Wondering, and wondering….

For have not you, in the past, expressed your unadulated undulating admiration for Shri Manto’s UNFLICHING praise for the subcontinent’s very own version of that rakta-shoshee pishaach?!!

Therefore, shouldn’t you be saying – as Shri Hamidm dwitiya (that sanatani of Shri Gopi Ram) would say – “Jai Shri Manto!”

Re: # 223

Joshiji,

aap Blasphemy kar rahein hai. Shri 1008 is Bhagwan or Ishwar (never you know who and who). Unke half (aadhe) is Shri 504 Gehlot Maharana of Mewar I can at best be Shri 251.

However since I have committed the crime of calling you a blasphemer (which cannot be possible for a Hindu) so I have removed 200 Shri`s from my name I am simply Shri 51 Sanatani (equivalent of Raja Sahaeb note Raja Saheb not Raja Babu).

However his holiness will not forgive till you profusely apologise to Dangar mantolies and promise not to harass dumb animals.

Yours Holily
Sanatani

You may hereforth address me only as Shrimant Raja Sanatani or Raja Saheb or your Holiness

Ama yaar Sanatani,

What is all this with multi-Shri`s?!

The only place in India where they still use that nomenclature is Nepal, using the term ``India`` a bit loosely!
