#21, Hamidm Sahib, {``chowk staff : i had asked you to make sure saminasha reviewed ozer`s blatherings before you put them on the front page ...... ``}

Hamidum Sahib,
Jealousy does not become you. :)

I prefer Ozer`s brilliancy over Saminasha`s hysteria. Ozer has forgotten more adjectives, similes, and metaphors than you have ever crammed in your long life. Another thing, he does not wear out the period key when he writes.

Earth quake assessment

The number of beggers in the pak cities will increase as the distitutes from the earth quakes flock to the cities and teh trafic lights.

The jihadis will corner the land and assets unclaimed in POK.

Most of teh textile sector of pakistan will be affected as the free, no-cost blankets find their way into the markets competing with local production.

Pak spending on education and other social functions will decline as the funds are diverted to earth quake victims.
Pka military spending will increase as the military structures in POK will be rebuilt at the cost of the poor.

Jihad in POK will intensify as they get entrenched with assets in POK. The only deterrent is the NATO troops.

Kaurasach,
Cool down. Try and get out of this `Sikhs are God`s gift to India and the Hindus` and `Sikhs can do no wrong` mentality. Otherwise you are just another bigot, just of the Sikh variety.
Respectfully submitted,
Satyavadi

............ please don`t write for the front page again .......... if you have to, join me and other common hacks in exercising your skills in the comment box ....... spare us the agony, please .........

18, Jhoothavaadi,

No use playing a flute in front of a bufflo.......still i will try.....

ONLY sikhs have defended Bharat and citizens of the land.....Kashmir was saved by sikhs.....

and Hindians have sold the mata as two bit whore again and again....Nehru and Gandhi were the latest pimps in the long line......

and then the slaughter of INNOCENT sikhs.....what do you expect them to do after the hijraas played intrigues in Pb........

The reason they got beat is that they didn`t do enough killing on their part......shudve killed more and let muslas take care of you......


Next time a foreigner makes u thankless hijras` mothers warm their beds.....let them do it.....next time someone wants to hummilliate you by taking your sisters let em......next time a hindian gets circumcized, let em.......

you thankless hijrass deserve it.

When is the punishment for the ``kanjarpana`` and ``haramzadgi`` of the Sikhs both pre and post 1984 - upto the early 90s, arrive? And in what form?

terror strikes the chowk again !



ghoulish bomb blasts
the spine of Delhi
ghastly wake
aberrantly unambiguous metropolis
Gaudy neon lights
Rattled citizens
a flashlight fever
flickering candles
sobering thump
glittering saris and citizenry are interposed with a panic-stricken dyslexia hitherto unseen poignant prudence
revelers sagaciously heeded the government`s caveat to stay within their safer sanctuaries



........... AND THE WINNER IS ??????????

glittering saris and citizenry are interposed with a panic-stricken dyslexia hitherto unseen

Ozer, {``Delhi-ite Diwali festivities with their flickering candles took a sobering thump as the glittering saris and citizenry are interposed with a panic-stricken dyslexia. Fireworks and firecrackers are igniting every few seconds with a hitherto unseen poignant prudence. Many would-be revelers sagaciously heeded the government`s caveat to stay within their safer sanctuaries.``}

Hosh Gildiniz, Kardesh.

Ozer, you are a powerful writer. Please accept my admiration for your brilliant style of writing. Too bad your passion for effective writing concerned this horrible and unjustified act of murder. I agree with you that terrorism has a nasty way of spoiling everything we like in our mortal world. One sick bomber and another person sick of living a good life can end it all for many of us. To top it off, these ghouls have the audacity to make phone calls and acknowledge their crime for the glory of Islam.

We keep saying that a few rotten apples do not represent all Muslims. The problem is that the rot is more wide-spread than we realize and too many people are turning into apple sauce thanks to the rotten apples. The best way to end this farce is to recognize the problem as a Muslim problem, apprehend the culprits from among our ranks, and bring them to Islamic justice - swiftly and assuredly.

Teshekur

Allah Smarladik
Salim

HP #11: ``Some one requested tjat I look over..``

The world is waiting with baited breath for HP`s idiotic comments.

``You wrote quiet extravagantly:..``

Spell-checkers can not help the idiot to hide his idiocy.

Ozer,

Some one requested that I look over this article too. I did and I am disappointed in the storyline. For a nanosecond, after looking at the title of this piece, I thought they pulled a Nagasaki on Delhi. I like that decadent city; been there and was able to pick up girls like crazy.
The city is so ugly and dirty inside that you can’t walk around there without covering your nose. There are all kinds smells that follow you every where you go. In a sense, I was pleased to learn from the title that the city is no more and that they would probably rebuild it without all those bhiyyas and Punjabis in there. These two groups, as you very well know, have very limited understanding of a civilized life and despise all kind of rules. The only exceptions are people from Pindi and Islamabad. There are no exception for bhiayas from UP. They have just plain flat-out horrible manners and think that this world is made for spitting that horrible red color from their mouths. I still can’t understand why they even eat red color for food. It may be just some Indian thing.

Anyway, moving right along, your exaggeration of what happened is Delhi reminded me of typical Bhiyyas who would go on and on spinning stories out of no where. In Pakistan, we refer these people as Chorroo or braggart. They have no sense of truth and just think that they can spin anything and people would believe them. They had us fooled in 1947, when they first came over from India in trainloads and told us that they owned poodina kay bagh in India and Hindus have taken over them. We did not know what poodina was so we believed them. Once we gave them houses to live, we found out they were all jollahay or kabari. Some were found stealing Railway Engine parts to pay for their expensive habit of eating that red color and now whole Sindh is red.

You wrote quiet extravagantly:
“Bloodstained streets and mangled bodies of innocent mothers and children are all menacingly spread on the ground with their arms apart.”

I almost had a heart attack. I thought everybody in Delhi died a horrible death and their body parts are splattered all over the place. Then I started thinking; is there anyone I know in Delhi? I thought I may have to send some condolence messages or probably will have to offer fateha for them. Finally, I remembered my friend Rajiv’s parents lived in Delhi. So I called and told him how sorry I was about his parents’ death in Delhi in an atom bomb attack. He was totally taken back and was perplexed to learn about his parents` death from me. I told him that I read the story at Chowk and one Ozer who visited Delhi right after the nuke blasts wrote about your parents’ death. Well! Now he is looking for you with some heavy metal in hands. He may also be looking for the Chowk editors for publishing lies about his parents.

Can you tell me what does this para means?

“The blasts have sparked off foreseeable qualms throughout Delhi, shattering a festive atmosphere. Media vultures and nationalistic ethnic bigots on the wrong end of political spectra will be rhetorically ricocheting religio-nationalistic venom across various foray to notch up cross-border apprehension.”

Rest of your piece sucks as they are celebrating diwali there and would be celebrating methi eid too. Luckily, it is not Barri Eid or the Muslims would be killing some cows to celebrate some Hindu deaths. It is common in India. Hindus celebrate Muslims death and Muslims reciprocate when Hindus die.

Please don’t try writing a piece about an incident w/o knowing the area well!

godot ...

I missed a few words out in that sentence...

Satyamwada...

If combatting Hindu fanatics makes one a Mullah then so be it.
