Thank you for asking a direct question about minority rights and Imran's views on treatment meted to Ahmadis as an example. As usual he dodged the question and answered it with usual liberal sprinklings and BS about fundamental rights. Imran is known to not make any noise on sensitive issues like these, or share an open opinion...where is the TI philosphy and action when it came to Mukhtaran Mai or the rape in Baluchistan by an army officer? Seeking justice against Altaf to garner punjabi votes on anti-mohajir sentiment is easy...Imran is still far from being a leader. He deserves a seat or two in the NA where he can make noise....or more if the constitution allows 12-14 year olds to vote.

Tahmed sahib,

Being of the "Peon of the West kanjaroon" mentality myself it is not very often I disagree with you and agree with Masadi sahib. But on the issue of sacrifice I do. Masadi sahib is right when he says that when you buy and slaughter an animal and feed it to the poor and deprived (as opposed to eating it YOURSELF) you are doing some kind of a sacrifice or if not that a good deed at least.

Regards

Re: # 77 Please do not use words about elected person president. Even if one does like elected person do not go on insulting post of president. He is little down but not out and will be there for 5 years and then one more term. President is manupulating us president with buggy man of Taliban and he is at same time contacts with Talibans. He is going to keep good relationships with Taliban for future. When usa leaves may be next 10 years then he can make "business" with them.He has canned BB by being magnanomous by issueing NRO and BB is doing his work so Justice Choudhari will not be back to hound him. That is killing two birds with one stone. Altaf is guarding his backyard and BB is in vanguard.If BB starts doing trouble he can discard NRO and put in docks put her in prison. Kayani is his chosen man a satrap in army. So general does have no problems of survival. Still election is far away and he is ready to do his duties when needed.
Musharaff has done great sacrafice for survival of nation has eaten his words of not allowing BB and NS back. He has to be pragmatic when your bankers tell you to do ( President of usa suggests ). Without great in flows of dollars and military enhancement by 1 billion aid military balance is slowly shiftimg to our advantage against India. And with all that equipment and specially helicopter gunship at proper time backbone of India will be broken and she will sue for give and take kashmir issue.With american army in vivinity India has to shut up and do coolie code work. Musharaff is what usa wants as all terror fighting group , its life line is Pakistan refineries, which arm and fuel and war machine of west. They are dependent on pakistan and musharaff , if he goes all can fail down so they have put their additional ace protecting their interests PPP life president. As mr. Aga Amin said before Pakistan problems are not external but national ethinic eruptions and they were coming stronger he has good incite and premonation and he is hearing distinct drum heats. He correctly said god forbid Punjabis fighting sindh for water and b.stan for gas and Hindustani muslims for national assertions. President has capped two ethinic problems. Startegy is to keep BB weak and in so nationalists of sindh out and He beinging Hindustani Muslim Mqm sticks to normal politics and altaf ask his troops to keep calm and cooperate with parties aligned with General. Only problem is B.Stan and one problem ethinic problem can be handled by army means. As all non baloach knows if B.Stan get control of Gas prices they can raise to $6 to 7 dollars match international prices all economy will had heart stroke. At 1/3 prices of gas industry and power industry and all manufacturing is subsidised. Musharaff greatness lies in making balochi assets national assets and interests of all others against B.National interests.That rules out sympathy for BLA and that type of terror tactics oriented politics. Also just like karachi is controlled Hinustani Muslims, quetta is contorolled by Pathans. Pathans interest and balochi interest are discordent and pathan leadership supports army over balochis interests. ( They may cry with baloachi but after words they will party with Punjabi army and MQM dominated supreme leadership. Musharaff has cut ethinic problems successfully. Hopefully you will thank him and preserved nation of centrifugal tendencies will break country of ethinic problems. Good night.

masadi: you say "Who funds the institution that I work at (besides the student's fees) is not my concern. "

This is the third time you have proved yourself to be a hypocrite on this one board (the first two times already noted below). And a peon wage slave as well.

And guess what - it also makes you a peon who works for an institution funded by the US, and a hypocrite who then spends his time on chowk trying to paint the US as the source of all evil.

No wonder a two-faced loser like you is challenged meeting even the low bar that chowk places with respect to behavior towards other posters.

#76 mr. madani: your "rising sun" mr. musharraf is trying hard to be the peon of the west - but the west thinks he smells like rotten fish. could you perhaps recommend him for peon-ship?

Re: # 75 Mr.Masadi do not get disturbed by red flagging for you will not show white flag and surrender, you need to moderate language and you tell truth and its bitter for peons of west, so sugar coat it and feed them , it is needed for knowledge improvement and enhancing independent thinking devoid of mental suppression done to people of this country by western elites and local brown elites.You and mr. Amin have brains not brain washed by western propaganda , I am learning lot from both. Its good YLH is not here as he was extreme critical of you unfairly with long widening logical hyperbolies. I suggest you never address to any individual as you are trying to show and inducing people to think and elites can not tolerates deviation from well beanten, over used wrong routes.
I wish all good id and happy new year for non believers and anti god people.

Regarding red flagging your posts, when they are devoid of any substance and contain only ad hominem and insults against those you disagree with, they need to be red flagged, unlike your BS redflagging of my very substantive posts....

tahmed writes "and now you are a hypocrite by talking of "american barbarism" when in fact you earn your living from money provided by american taxpayers. "

There is no hypocrisy involved in American barbarism, Iraq is a clear and striking example in the present. Regarding how I earn my living, I earn it teaching sociology, that is what I get paid for, no tax payer has ever given me a dime. Who funds the institution that I work at (besides the student's fees) is not my concern. My concern is telling the truth to the students. You on the other hand have made a living worshipping the US elite and selling your soul for a few dollars and that involves perverting all truth involved in any discussion. Shame on your miserable soul and shame on your pathetic existence...

Re: # 71

Massaddi Mian:
"I have a question for you.
"...As you all would have noted here is another devoid of substance post by tahmed....."
What is your definition of substance, does your substance include your abusive language?"

Anil sahib -- go easy on masadi sahib for his "abusive language" -- as they say in Persian: "nesh-e aqrub nu uz paye keeN ust/muqtazaaye tabeeutush eeN ust" -- never mind the venomous sting of a scorpion -- it is not out of the rancor that it inflicts the abuse -- it is in the nature of the beast.

"i do enjoy the kaleeji/gurday/kapooray, the tikkas and the grilled lamb chops ..."

ah those good old days of mutton pilau with the bhoons mix of "kaleeji, gurda, dil, chusta and phephraa" -- but be careful Hamidm mian and iahmed -- that mouth watering organ meat is loaded with cholesterol and is a no no artery clogger -- every good thing including Johnny Walker is getting medically haram these days -- medicine is looking more and more like masadi miaN's killjoy ascetic Islam....:)

Re: # 67 Thanks mr. Masadi for answering properly. I have not been to usa but there is mechanized slaughter of animals also. Only moral right has people who avoid meat and exploiting animals for their flesh. There is no difference in processed meat it is dead animals. Now there are people who avoid this things they consider animals as part of their friends and they do not eat friends. They have rights to say but who indulge in eating animals and they objecting is not honest.
Most animals produced in Usa good parts are eaten by nice white people and dirty hhazardous parts are processes for dark people abd fat addicted white and all brown and blak people. They want people addicted fat ladden processed meat "byproducts" consumed by poor people. This ia best way to dispose of grease and fats feed poor people. Now most poor and dark and browns are starving in usa and england so feed fat laden stuff and make ready for heart, diabetic problems and then medical companyis come in picture to deal medical probloems for poor. I read statistics some where in left paper balcks are extremely be come over weigh by 30% on average and black women fed cheap subsidized fat feed and has destroyed their race. Then to damage more white bosses do not marry fat white women so they marry overweight black women and then mixed overweight over fat children. The cycle is repeated agfain and agin to destroy healty black race. First they feed all left over fat as good nutrious food and then black man eats that food and they advice to loose wieght, only he eats double fat and adds skim milk glass and diet soda to cut calories. Elites are will do anything to make money. Once Russian leader Vladimar Ullanov Lenin said Capitalist will sell us ropes to hang them.
Sorry little out of focus writing , its night sleepy so excuse for mental deliquencies and my mind is not working well today. Sorry for not being logical. But its hypocrite attitude is correct as Masadi say

masadi: one more thing: chowk staff know who red-flagged a post - so, when you red-flag my post below when there is nothing in it that violates chowk guidelines, you are probably giving them a good laugh.

#67 masadi: what part of "i discuss issues with people who are able to pass chowk's low bar on behavior towards others." are you having difficulty understanding?

Of course you are a hypocrite by claiming that killing of animals is a "sacrifice". and now you are a hypocrite by talking of "american barbarism" when in fact you earn your living from money provided by american taxpayers.

Re #66. As you all would have noted here is another devoid of substance post by tahmed. He does not address a single point I have raised, contrary to that the hypocrite puts a label of hypocrisy on calling animal slaughter a sacrifice when I did no such thing, I merely highlighted the charity aspect of it as a "sacrifice". Tahmed who has been thoroughly and completely exposed due in part to my posts here only evokes laughter by his so called "sincere" attempts that are clothed as humanism while promoting American barbarism. Not only can he not address a single point raised in my posts he tries to hide behind tricks and dishonesty like redflagging my posts and getting me banned from posting. And note that he knows how thoroughly I have busted his name and posts on here, that is why like a drowning man clutching at straws the weasel is trying to get me banned time and again....

#65 masadi: i discuss issues with people who are able to pass chowk's low bar on behavior towards others. that low bar is obviously beyond your ability to pass - and you are like the village madman who tries to get attention from passers-by by abusing them.

That is the reason when i chose to write you a post, i just discuss only you - why it is you who is a hypocrite (and your repeating your half-brained excuses for the killing of animals and calling it "sacrifice" simply makes you a hypocrite who repeats himself).

i didnt red flag your post below, and whoever did is quite right in doing so given that repeat violaters of chowk guidelines like you need to be brought to the attention of chowk staff.
