90% of Pakistanis may not know who Dawood Ibrahim is but he is more useful to ISI and Pakistani government than their atomic bomb. An expose of him when Pakistani government has been saying that it can`t find him

What the f*? Dawood Ibrahim is hero of Pakistani public? Why Pakistani people consider him as hero? is he in Pakistan? which Paki paper representing him as hero? why we Pakistani dont read that newspaper?.
When he was honored by Sitar-e- Imtiaz.
I am sure 90% of Paksitani dont even know and not even care who is Dawood Ibrahim and what he done...... coz studebaker is right only Karachi has more then 100 Dawood Ibrahim.

Studebaker #22

He can not give you any explanation becasue the only thing he probably knows is that he is god when it comes to Aviation, wears Zegna & do not know where K-mart is.
I know my comments regarding aviations may not make sense but they are for Jay-gay.

Jay Jay Shivshankar-
Is this better than Jay-Gay?

Your obsession with us is commendable, I appreciate your time and effort in helping us get better. I would say time would come when all of us will appreciate your efforts but probably we are not capable of seeing that now. Dont leave us Jay we need your insight...Gandhi. or G^>>O, LOL!

On a different note if prozac is not helping...talk to you doctor(s) they can probably put you on something else.

Jayzee- ma man! you got to get yourself in some sort of counselling.

studebaker, 18,

Another paki-like post, as can be expected. Why cant you give a simple explanation of why dawood ibrahim is a hero in pakistan, instead of rambling about india.
I have given you one explanation, dawood is the living image of gaznavi, as close a pakistani can hope to get. That is why he is treated a hero in pakistan.

Now can you give an alternate explanation, of course other than corruption of pak police, blah..blah. A theoretical premise that shows the underlying motive of the pak society. Like honour killing, dawood cannot be a hero with out some supporting social value.

You say that you are an educated person, and you should know the importance of images, myths and folk lore in moulding social behaviour. Now on to dawood ibrahim...studebaker...leave the india story alone.

Studebaker,

Here is another achievement for your pak brothern in cricket. In the last world cup cricket only three players were deciplined for abusing others, all three are from pakistan and were against indians.

This is jijadic cricket, and tell me how the elite of the elites of pakistan achieve this. Think of TNT, think of children of TNT, think of k for kafir education.

Again, leave the indians, try to undertsand your brothern, the pak mind set.

Studebaker,

I know you claim to be an indian, must be the one who fell of the last train. You any how show all the qualities of a typical pakistani and for your sake let me repeat again. To illustrate let me give the example of dawood ibrahim.

He is a hero in the pak military, and political circles. he has the same heritage as gaznavi, the one who plundered somnath temple and killed thousands of indians, and revered as a hero in pakistan.

Dawood ibrahim is an indian, but has been confered the pak citizenship, because he meets the basic criteria of a pakistan hero, he has killed several kafirs, a sort of a living shaheed.

The most important distinction between india and for that matter any civilised country and pakistan is that it is the only country where criminality is honoured. As an indian with pak mind set, please read about the honour killings of pakistan and the legal reasons why no one is prosecuted. The killers of Samia sarwar are well known, it happened in a crowded office, there were several witnesses ready to come forward and testify, but the great pak legal system declared that no crime has been committed, simply because it is a common ritual which many pakistanis routinely committ. Studebaker, the tahmeds and urstrulies are responsible for this legal system of pakistan, becuase they do not dare to say that honour killing is not due to illiteracy, it is because the pak legal system, the pak constitution and the highest pak court, the sheria court says that man killing a woman is legal.

Stedebaker, give me one example of such a system from a non-muslim country. The pathetic urstruly, like any other pakistani knows only of vulgarity, but will not dare to say that the highest sheria court of pakistan, that challenged the interest rate system of the bank will not challenge honour killing because it is identical to jihadic killing, killing of non-innocent, and that is why like the kashmiri terrorist, the honour killers have a field day in pakistan.

Studebaker, it is sad that you cannot even take the bus now.
