ya rub dil-e-muslim ko woh zinda tamanna de
jo her muslaman ko shaheed masood bana de
teray naam pe mitnay ki tamanna se sarshar
aur her aurat ko shuttle-cock burqa pehna de
yehi iltaja, faryad, dua shab-o-roz laboN peh
yahood-o-maghrib-o-hind ko hasti se mita de
na cheez neiN bhi teray der peh ik arz guzari
oont per safar ko hamari shab-e-wasl bana de

Old or not, they`re still THERE!! And anyway, so is murder, corruption, etc ... all `old` vices, but it doesn`t mean they should not be addressed!

``Ah`` said the caterpiller ``I see a red rose``......Sorry been reading too many kiddie books. But this was brilliant, darn wish I had written it instead. Chowk staff - so what does it take to get the author name changed. Chowk staff?...hellooo...

freaky...funny, though.

He died. So did mom and dad and his Caucasian friends.

“Shaheed!” said the local mullah.
“Shareef!” said the middle-classes.
“Sniper firing!” said the lower classes.
“Osama’s love child!” said the Americans.
“Conspiracy!” said the government.
“RAW!” said the ISI.
“Coke!” said Abrar-ul-Haq.

Allahu akbar, TNT is great said the ghost sipping sherry,
It is real TNT you stupid said Alfred noble industries
He is no shaheed said shaheed foundation run by pak army
We lost a good camal racer said tahmed bin urstruly of faisalabad
We lost a good worker said pak carpet exporter from karachi
We got more work said edhi foundation
Population is under control said US returned economic planner
Heavin is getting crowded said the man who wrote the book.

CRIME AND JIHAD

Under pressure from foreign countries, the flow of funds to jihadists is reducing. There are also signs that the crimes, the carjackings, the kidnappings etc are being carried out by organised groups and the pak police and military are in cohout because the funds are channeled to jihadic activiies. At last the jihad is reaching a self susytaing level, where the rich and poor have to contribute, rather compulsarily.
Finally the contours of a truly isamic nation founded on TNT is emrging. The military provides the secure environment for the jihadists, first to loot the other pakistanis, and then to move on to the jihadic heavens. In the happy mood, the ghost might need a lot more sherry, and a few bacon.

as a picky aside, Serbians are Orthodox Christians. Not Catholics. But since Crusades were launched by the Catholics, you could have had Masood want to join the Croatians who are Catholics and who also have a somewhat antagonistic relationship with Bosnian muslims.

Phenomenal.

That was brilliant. I love the way you creatively use fiction to comment on reality.

Nadeem...I like your idea...keep your milk churner on...
