That you actually keep in touch with a person like Bhartiya Musalman is indicative of your mental calibre, saxena babu.

#309 Zafar

Hi Zafar, something totally unrelated.

In her most recent rant Varsha Bhosle writes,

``The question that vexes most of us is, do all Muslims support Khilafat...? Naaah, bull. For instance, Aamir Khan, who backed Sarfarosh so solidly, can`t possibly be an Islamist; and I can`t even imagine Dr Abdul Kalam getting into a fit over ``our Pakistani brothers``. I know too many Muslims who are Indians first and foremost. Too, the Islamic Council of Australia has just declared: ``We don`t take any orders from overseas calling us to war, it`s just not acceptable anyone here would even think about having anything called a holy war in Australia.`` (Zafar, now I know why we are friends :-).) Nonetheless, at least in India, I do believe that the live-and-let-live kind of Muslims are a minuscule minority. The rest are the reason why Malegaon is still burning.``

Could this Zafar be you? If you do know Ms Bhosle personally perhaps you could persuade her to submit some of her rants here so they could be taken apart.

Looks like the Kabaddi match between YLH and Sadna is cancelled coz they have made up :(

Scout, what about your ticket sales, and TV distribution rights?

`ylh is indeed free to have a whole zoo, but threatening and abusing me personally under cover of anonymity`

With all due respect Sadna, My threats were not under the cover of anonymity. Everyone on Chowk knows which town I live in, what my name is, which company I work in etc etc.

ylh is indeed free to have a whole zoo, but threatening and abusing me personally under cover of anonymity and having legal kittens is a poor substitute for `defence of Pakistan` of which I certainly think I have right of reply. Irony being, none of my posts on this board merits such a reaction, but I understand an honest assessment or acknowledgement of this is too much of a strain for anyone in question.

ylh #311 #312
Firstly, if people write articles, Indians and others are likely to read them, they are not the crown jewels. In my case, I also heard a Pakistani speak on the subject. I was trying to give Gowardhan the Indian side of the picture too for perspective. These are things which need public airing so we can tackle them. Its a subject which you cannot blame anyone for talking about on chowk, thats the purpose of the talks and articles.

But I am glad to hear your personal opinion of the whole issue. As I said before we are often fighting the same demons and more power to those who do.

btw, check your mailbox now.

Despite my repeated urging through out the weekend, Sadna the tough talking cat woman didnot muster up the courage to email me ...

Sadna:

`You ARE scared. OK, I will try to leave him at home`

OOOOh nice to see all of your countrymen suffer from the `Saddam Hussain syndrome`. Ask Rsaxena what that means.

`And whats with this list? All these so-called people havenot stepped forward to help you out`

And who said they stepped forward to help me out. I think self sufficient people dont need `help`. Isnt it ironic that you have the classic `phudda` mentality ... oh my brothers got my back... oh these people dont have your back. Will you give up your childish whining woman?

The people on the list are the ones that have become monsters of suspicion in your naive little mind. Each one of them you have accused of being `cowardly eunuches`.

`you to make yourself ridiculous by having so many dozen kittens at the very mention of things like educational policy in India and Pakistan`

Once again you have a fertile imagination. I on the other hand stand by everyword of what KH Nayyar and Pervez Hoodbhoy have to say about the Pakistani educational system and its sad consequences.

My problem is with bigots like you and gowardhan, who get on the net and search google with `Evil corrupt Pakistan` to prove your point, while neglecting the people of your own country who are much worse off.

Reply YLH # 272

“It is ironic that Zafar comes to the aid of Sadna because she is a woman…”

I wasn’t coming to Sadna’s aid but to yours, o discerning one.

:-)
