Heloo Devkant Somani! glad to know that you finally met aPaki who appeared to be just an average joe!! believe mePakis are just ordinary folks with the same problems worries and troubles that all of us have all over the world.the walls of hatred that have been built between India and Pakistan have to be demolished to pave way for a better future for all of usafter all we were the same country about half a century ago. I remember my trip to India about two years back.I went and saw the house i was born in in 1946.it was a very educating trip. surprise surprise!! Indians are just like us! i grew up thinking that Indians have horns and a tail!! what a pleasant surprise to know that they are humans!intolerance is the greatest of all vices!if India and Pakistan haveto avoid a nuclear holocaust the barriers of hate prejidice and intolerance have to be done away with.Regards and best wishes.hope you visit Pakistan some day forabetter understanding of our country and its people!!



The Life and Times of Saddam Hussein

hello Kafir Khan!! please do not accuse without reason.citicism for the sake of criticism is counter productive.The article ends abruptly because it was meant to end like that.there are no secrets behind the sudden ending.the final chapter in the story of Saddam Hussein is yet to be written and till than he will remain an enigma and a mystery.we cant predict his final fate or his destiny.Dont you think the author of this piece has tried to be as ojective and factual as it is humanly possible?? and please dont levy charges of COPYING!thats something I have never done in my whole life and i dont intend to start at this late stage of life!!if i did that my work could not find place in so many prestigious newspapers and magazines of the world.Do criticize but please do so objectively and with an open mind.best regards I hope you will continue to read my articles inspite of your negative opinion about my efforts!!

Hi Wasiq Nawaz!!Thanks for the scathing critism.this article about saddam hussein is not meant to be a piece of brilliant creative work.it is only a biographical sketch of a ver imprtant and controversial leaders ofmodern times and it has its value for students of history international relations and political science.i am sorry that this article has annoyed you so much i hope you will read it as a lesson in history nd not as a work of popular fiction.

re;Saima Shah: Hi there!! let mehave yr comments about Saddam Hussein I see that some critics have not liked or even appreciated this article.one of accused me oflacking in original thinking.For the benefit of all such critics i can only say ``Those who forget the past are conde,ned to repeat it.`` My article on Saddam Hussein is not a piece of vreative writing or any original brain wave.it is onl a biographical sketch of oneof the most conroversial leaders of modern times and i believe our readers have the rightto know the inside life story or as much of it as possibleabout this strange and mysterious figure of modern times.

WELL DONE!! Congratulations!! very well written a true picture of the PAKI male! yr writing reminds me of many males in my vicinity!! this is all the more true about the Pakistani men who are not only dirty vulgar and sex starved but desperate to prove that they are sexual athletes of olympic standards.you have painted a true and exact picture of an average Pakistani who has had the good fortune to migrate to some foreign landf and then get on with the business of defaming his country and his culture and his religion. Shabas Keep up the good work you do have talent and i say that as an experienced writer.good luck! and keep it it up!!
