Re: # 245

Uh yeah you just proved my point. Yvonne Ridley is a nut, she support Zarhqawi even after his own family disowned him! My Shia colleague has lost her niece, cousin`s family including a two year old because of that creep. Her criticism of Israel and Zionism is dead on but jeez she was even fired from Al-Jazeera. By her own admission she has been married to muslims in the past but didn`t know about Islam... Huh?

Hamidum Sahib,
Wouldn`t it make much more sense to send Chacha 32 as the ``Ambassador of Love`` to Paktia province? :)

Seriously, sir, I think that you and Maulana Urstruly have had one too many - and I don`t mean lap dances, either.

{``re: #222 Tauheed sahib
With all due respect, Mian Masadi did not direct his #196 to you therefore, your retort is rather harsh and may be unwarranted. ``}

Concerning the sophomoric and rather stupid rhetoric in #222 {``Masadi: Dear Running Sore on the Rear End of the Flea That is Feasting on the Poop Left by the Dog of the Peon Whose Sole Job is to Bring Samosa and Chai for the Bald, Overweight College Clerk With Rotten Teeth who Steals From the Scholarship Fund At Government College Mian Channu Where the Roof Drips and the Teachers Show Their Unwashed Faces in College on the First of Every Month to Collect Their Salary.``}

BJ Bhayya,
Thank you for reprimanding this less than humorous and reprehensible personal insult hurled at Mr. Masadi by this profane and vulgar individual - he should behave much better in consideration of his advanced age. For some reason, whenever he loses debates, Chacha 32 resorts to this type of personal attack. I don`t normally agree with Masadi Sahib, but I support him fully and sympathize with him in this unfortunate exchange with the impolite imbecile.

While passing these remarks, hamidm always forgets these are someone`s daughters too, even though they don`t go to proms with their boyfriends and stop for ice-cream on the way back ... (wink) :~)

Hamidum Sahib,
I too am in opposition to the antics of the right-wing fundo extremists. I too detest their horrible methods and even more nefarious goals. But, sir, I find your derogatory comments to be very sexist, demeaning, and quite uncharacteristic from someone of your esteemed standing. I can understand Chacha 32 descending to such depths, but I always thought that you were much better. I am very disappointed. Please reconsider. Thanks.

Re: # 236

salim mian,

....... i apologize if i have offended your refined sensibilities, but they are wasted on suicidal jihadists even if they happen to be women .......... look, these people don`t deserve any mercy because if they ever come to power you and i and `chacha tahmed` will be hanging from the same limb ...... then they will take us down, bury us up to our waists and stone us ...... after they that, will drag us through the streets behind a pajero and finally behead us in front of the lal masjid ............. now, if you are thinking that you can sweet talk these girls into making out with you before they do all that, you are mistaken .....

Yes. There were I think six of them who were first stunned with gas and then shot in the head. About two hundred spectators died anyway but that`s not the issue.

But three thousand?

Zee Bhai,
Of course Osman Ghazi was named after the famous 3rd Caliph Usman Ghani. Just as Mehmed the Conqueror was named after the Holy Prophet (PBUH), as was Sultan Ahmet and all the Mehmets and Ahmets (Mohammeds and Ahmeds) throughout the era of the Ottomans. Even Mustafa Kemal Pasha was named after God`s Most Perfect Creation (PBUH).
Thanks for this polite discussion. :)

Interesting news in #210 by Urstruly that the Government plans to use stun gas and to storm them. I don`t see how it could work.

There`re 6,500 girls in the Jamia Hafsa. Out of those 3,000+ are involved in the current militancy. Even if they`re rendered unconscious or something with gas, where`re they going to take them all? To prison? Or sent back home? Surely there must be some plan for afterwards.

In any event, if this is carried out, the result will be as follows, because they`re now wearing exactly the same headbands (as seen in today`s Geo TV interview with Dr. Shahid Masood).

This image is composed of the same woman`s two seperate images from the Chechen theater siege.

..... I forgot to mention .. I should have done regarding the subject at hand.

In Karachi recently, I went to attend a wedding in close family friends. The daughter of the family who was a vivacious hip-hugger clad college girl last time I saw her 3-4 years ago, a talented painter of portraits and murals, was now clad head to toe in a BURQA (face uncovered though) ... and that too on her own brother`s wedding when everyone else in her family was bedecked with jewels and silks.

No further comment.

Perhaps, she disapproved of the wedding.

They have done none of the abominable things you list. Re closing video shops, that is untrue as well. All they have done is to warn the stores not to distribute pornography otherwise they`ll shut them down. I think the video-stores have taken heed to that.
