As I have suggested before,

Imran should join the PML (N) and make it PML (IN).

He has star power but no party. Having the support

of many CHOWK readers is just not enough!

#142 I said Hamid Gul was arrested, not that he "should be" arrested. And even if I had said "should be", only a total dud would think that this implies that one man alone trained an entire army of taliban. But then, like I said, you demonstrated that you were a dud years ago on chowk.

You are best off sticking to your specialty - cutting and pasting stuff from Pakistani newspapers, adding a couple of lines of your standard "paki paki" crap, and topping it of with what you think is american slang added for special affect.

hamidm: agreed that we are mere tamash beens. But tamash beens are not expected to sit like potted plants - in fact they are the far louder in their boos and/or applause than the players themselves.

Re: # 139

tahmed,

you said, "It is the expat Pakistanis who need to make sure that while he can jail thousands of Pakistanis, musharraf cannot silence the Pakistanis."

.... i hate to tell you this, but expat pakis don't count at all - they are mere tamash beens who can only rant and rave on the internet ...... when i go to pakistan, which is at least once a year, i keep my mouth shut before someone shuts me up (i learned that from romair and masadi who suffer from chronic foot in mouth disease) ...... if you don't know the price of onions and tomatoes, you have no right to talk ....... battling musharraf is good for time-pass but, as ahmedmadani sahib would say, it is all lufangebazi ........

... now carry on and knock down that windmill !

skeptical #128 I think Pakistanis, with their actions, have already removed Musharraf's fundamental claim - i.e. that he is key part of the solution in the WOT. I was listening to C-Span, e.g., and it was pointed out that while Musharraf claims that the emergency was necessitated by terrorists, he in fact attacked civil society which is the very bulwark against terrorism.

Musharraf is now seen more like what he is - a promoter of terrorism.So, the blood shed and bones broken by lawyers and journalists have not gone in vain.

It is the expat Pakistanis who need to make sure that while he can jail thousands of Pakistanis, musharraf cannot silence the Pakistanis.

#136 arjun: did i say that Hamid Gul ALONE did this? Only a complete moron would would think that by referring to Hamid Gul as the father of the taliban I implied that no one else was involved in creating the taliban. But then..you proved yourself to be a moron years ago on chowk with your repetitive harping.

#126 Posted by tahmed32 on November 6, 2007 6:31:43 am


he would not have waited 8 years to nab the father of the taliban.


Yup prophet tahmed: Hamid Gul did the taliban thing all by himself..the paki army and security establishment was completely in the dark and had no knowledge of it.

you really are cleopatra, queen of denial..

Re: # 128
Tahmed I do think that middle class has to be more pro active than they are...
I see that the pinch is felt by them the most and yet their protest is largely drawing room talk...
I do admire lawyers and journalists, they are the one braving the brutality...
There is an apparent lack of protest on the street which is unfortunately used by the kanjar Musharraf and his cronies as endorsement of what has been done....
I think PPP as it has the street power should call for the protest, but BB is just using the situation to extract maximum advantages....

In addition to #129, don't be surprised if the friends of tahmed among the miserable chowk staff ban me again for my post, even though they have been ignoring the posts of idiots who have been calling for my head and what not on here. They look for excuses to cut me off, because there is a huge disconnect between my ideas and theirs- they want to run Chowk as a propaganda outfit, like PTV, and all propaganda outfits are afraid of the undiluted properly contexualized truth....let the fools ban me, I don't give a damn...........
