Now let's stop this communal shit. Don't you see IB that Karachi has a serious problem?

Lemme tell you something. Lakson Tobacco (now owned by British American Tobacco) which employed thousands has stopped operations permanently because all its plants all over Sindh were gutted on 27 December - because people mistakenly thought it had a Mohajir owner (Lakhani). Who got hurt? Only the Urdu-speaking of Sindh.

#166/167 Posted by IB,

Haha ... I just love tullas. I once bought an entire thana with Rs 65,000 for the SHO and his men, Rs. 40,000 for the ASP Cantt, and Rs. 1 Lakh to the SP South ... just to get a person who had defrauded me picked up from his house, hung upside down from the roof naked, and a call to me at 6.00 am to come and slap him.

Surprise, I didn't! I could hear his wife and daughters screaming in the background.

Re: # 155

With regards to Suddle's appointment, this is what The News writes:

{Sources in the government said Asif Ali Zardari and his team negotiating for a coalition government in Sindh has taken into confidence the leadership of the MQM about the appointment of Dr Suddle in Sindh so that the ongoing parleys between the PPP and MQM do not reach a point of no return.}

{Observers believe that the appointment of Dr Suddle in Sindh is more a political affair than an issue of meritorious governance.}

Dirty jobs are never done at the top, they are delegated to low life inspectors, many who were responsible for those atrocities have already met their fate.

As evident from the multiple instances of dialog between the low life IB & Zeemax, there are numerous such creatures prevailing in the country which was acquired for the "Muslims".
These two characters exemplify the psyche of a good size population of Pakistan which justifies well the reasons Mohajirs continue to portray themselves as Mohajirs even after 60 years.
It is time that UN appoints a commission to investigate all the atrocities inflicted upon the Mohajirs of Pakistan from day one till now.
The ungrateful ones who derived from the Mohajirs for whatever lays in the treasury of Pakistan in terms of monetary backing gold which justified the printing & issuance of any currency by the State of Pakistan.
After the establishment of Pakistan the govt of Pakistan had no money to pay it's govt. servants which was also contributed by the Mohajirs.
When jobs were being distributed in Pakistan Mohajirs were pushed towards the end of the ques.
Karachi was deprived of it's cosmopolitan society consisting of variety of ethnicities, the local ones and those who have migrated in the name of a homeland for Muslims by the leaders who came in later and divided Karachi into districts and sub-districts, identifying certain areas as Urban and certain as Rural! later effecting policies to promote quotas for Rural domicile individuals over the Urban domicile individuals in connection with education/admission to colleges, govt. jobs and Civil Service.
At the time of founding of Pakistan there were several open minded intellectuals in all ethnicities including Baluchistan, Punjab, NWFP & Sindh as the time went by so did the clear water rolled away and all that is left is the dirt & filth that needs to be dredged out to clean the waterways again.
People who call others names based on their ethnicity should be prepared for their day as it is coming soon, if not in this world they shall face their collection of deeds in the day of judgment while they will have no one to save them from the wrath of Allah SWT even if they don't believe in HIM and should remember that "Allah key laathi mein awaz nahin hoti" every part of your bodies will testify what you say or do.

“I do not know about karachi but if you were to see the namoonas of bhaiya culture that Delhi is teeming with these days, refined is not the first word that would come to your mind.”

This is how most of them are in both Karachi and Hyderabad. Karachi is more UPian and Bihari. In Hyderabad and other parts of Sindh they are mostly from Rajputana. Nothing refined there. The lower classes are exactly what you described. Karachi, Hyderabad and Delhi-similar people, similar atrocious habits. They are the backbone of the MQM.

A political party with grassroots support in the lower classes could have possibly led them to a better political and economic future but these guys ended up in an abyss and are now being led by Altaf the Mafioso.

No doubt, the top 15-20% is cultured. MQM has no support in that class.

“After the establishment of Pakistan the govt of Pakistan had no money to pay it's govt. servants which was also contributed by the Mohajirs.”

Mohajir had money in 1947? Most of them were about the clerk level in India. So they really had no money when they came to Pakistan. You guys just continue to create one narrative, full of lies, after another. We just had a parade of liars on TV after they burned five people alive. An act comparable to what the RSS did it Gujarat. Instead of being ashamed and remorseful, every single MQM rep lied with impunity. These guys have no shame. After burning the poor guys, they forcibly took the dead bodies from Edihi and had claimed them their own.

Mohajir have a gift of gab and they use it to lie and make up stories. It must be the greatest character flaw in the Mohajir community and they don’t seem to mind that.

“It is time that UN appoints a commission to investigate all the atrocities inflicted upon the Mohajirs of Pakistan from day one till now.”

Yeah, right atrocities on Mohajir! What do you call burning people alive? Form a commission under Wajih uddin and Saeeduz zaman two respectable Mohjir judges and let them decide. You just can’t be happy that you and your generations got a safe place to grow and make your families prosper. You very well know what your relatives still do in India… barring a few who own podinay kay bagh!

Your attitude towards MQM is exactly the same which the VHP pundits in India towards Pakistan - you ignorant and refuse to accept the ground / physical condition.
a)MQM’s decision to sit on the opposition benches is principled although ‘good politics’ is politics of power and eventually better sense would prevail from the PPP camp and Zardari would personally intervene and meet Altaf Hussain in London to sort differences out.
b) It’s evident now that PPP is divided and the chain of command in PPP has serious loopholes – where Zardari(s) political wisdom is in direct conflict with those of the more local MPA(s) on ground on Sind.
c) There(s) a general consensus among saner political leaders that without MQM(s) support PPP could not control Sind and would be equal ant of dividing Sind into Rural and Urban Sind. A political crisis would be in a process of ‘brewing’ and the end result would be ‘violence’.
d) PPP knows that there alliance with the PML (N) is ‘short-lived’, thus they need to get as much strength in NA to remain in power and who would be better then MQM as a backup plan.
e) The transfer of SHO(s), TPO(s) is a routine policy by any in-coming Interior Minister – the concept is not as mistakenly thought by our optimists on MB that the transfers are in ‘good faith’ but the rate of SHO(s) and TPO(s) goes up – meaning, the SHOs, TPOs will have to negotiate with the current statuesque for better postings on much higher rates. MQM, PML (N), PPP, ANP everyone practices the same routine – it’s more sort of a tradition then anything else. Appointment of Suddle Sahib as IGP, Sind is purely an administrative decision. No need to make it controversial – although MQM was taken into confidence before the summary was send to the establishment division and interior ministry respectively.
f) Mohajirs contributed by opening scores of factories in 1947. I personally know Mohajirs Officers (from top to bottom) who worked without paychecks for good 3-4 initial years of Pakistan.
Infact I would not go down to a Sindi Racist and Lizard Eating HP(s) line; he’s a looser and nothing more. I predict ‘dama dam mast qalandar’ in days to come.
Well izuber rightly stated about me and Zeemax being total jerks – I accept the responsibility and I’m sure Zeemax did that too by stopping.

Re: # 175 IB
I have some honest questions and i will appreciate honest answers.Before iask any questions let me make it clear that i have no personal grudge against mohajars,rather some of my best friends are mohajars.I donot have high opinion about any party or leader in pak.
a)Since you claim that mohajars are more civilized and litterate than rest of the society,why do you have a slimy and creepy Althaf as your leader?
b)since you claim to be true pakistanis why your politics are so ethnic centered?
c)why in mohajar strongholds other partys have zero success?
d)Why are you holding Karachi hostage?
