Swat: Can the deal work?

Re: # 64

"that is fine too since these are not issues directly affecting Pakistan."

After so much of bashing by mirror, tahmed seem to have got a glimpse of himself in the mirror before it hit his head. Talk about pakistan, and that poor country needs all advise it can get, including my sdvise in the series, " helping pakistan".

Good to see that we have brought you to see your own face in the mirror, all of our paki bashing has produced results.

Plight of paki officials,

It is one of the most degrading jobs to be a paki senior official or politicians. Day after day, military and politicians from all over the world are visiting islamabad to tell the politicians and officials there that pakistan is terror central. The only reason for the repeated visits by foreighners is to give lectures to the pakis. Then there is the general kiyani who has to keep quite and watch the slaughter of his men by the jihadis and the US military. He also has to deal one after other surrender talks to get his men out of jihadi jails.

Here is the final act of disgrace by a paki minister, ten of his soldiers killed by the US and all that he has to say is that it was not an unfriendly act.

For a few thousand rupees, here is a man, not able , even in words to say that killing my men, is not OK.

from dawn of today


WASHINGON, July 11: Fo-reign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said on Friday that it’s harsh to describe US strikes on targets inside Fata as unfriendly acts.

After a 45-minute meeting with US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Mr Qureshi told the media that he had “frank, candid, honest and realistic” talks with his American counterpart.

Asked if US attacks on targets inside Fata were not unfriendly acts, Mr Qureshi said: “It is a harsh statement.”

The TNT is an amoebic theory, it keeps creating the other to be ethnicalley c;eansed. After clearing the hindus and then the ahmadis, now it is teh turn of the pathans. Three clean provinces, one for teh tribals and pathans, one for teh sindhis, and one for the punjabis, jinnah would be happy to see his TNT being extended beyond hindus.

Mohajir Qaumi Movement fears ethnic riots in Karachi
Saturday, July 12, 2008
The leaders of Mohajir Qaumi Movement (Amir Khan Group) have charged that the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) had devised a plot to create ethnic riots between the Mohajirs and Pathans in the upcoming month of August. Addressing a press conference at the Karachi Press Club (KPC) on Friday, members of Mohajir Qaumi Movement Karachi Committee Aftab Ahmed, Irfan Khan and Rizwanullah Khan alleged that on July 9 some elements of Muttahida Qaumi Movement had chalked out a strategy at a bungalow in Gulshan-e-Iqbal to create ethnic riots in Karachi like the Bushra Zaidi case of 1985 and the firing on a caravan in Sohrab Goth in 1986.

Helping pakistan,

This is the time to withdraw the troops from the border areas so that the ovefed paki soldiers do not get killed. This will leave the US to sort out the jihadis. Due to constant bombing, they will move to interior pakistan and leave a no-mans zone at the border. That is the best scenario. The jihadis will take over some of interior pakistan like peshawar and quetta. That is a good outcome. The jihadis should be chased out of sindh. The military can take punjab. India will take kashmir. That divides pakistan into four and there will be peace.

Nine soldiers hurt as Nato planes bomb Angoor Adda

Saturday, July 12, 2008

By Mushtaq Yusufzai

PESHAWAR: Eleven people, including nine Pakistani soldiers and two tribesmen, were injured when two Nato warplanes blitzed Pakistan’s Angoor Adda town, a border village on the Pak-Afghan border in South Waziristan, on the night between Thursday and Friday.

Angoor Adda, which is about 25 kilometers west of Wana, often comes under attacks by the US and Afghan troops from the Paktika province. Official and local residents of the border town told this correspondent by telephone that two Nato planes had bombed the mountainous areas between Pakistan and Afghanistan. They said several bombs fell inside the Pakistani territory and hit the border towns of Zayara Leeta and Musa Neeka areas near Angoor Adda.

The sources said a joint post of Pakistan Army and paramilitary Frontier Corps (FC) on the border also came under attack that caused serious injuries to nine soldiers.

Re: # 9

Khan saab,

The difference between india and pakistan is the diffirring hopes and expectations. Pakistanis have lost hope of anything good happening to them, they have no role models of people who have improved their living standards due to education and hard work. All they see is corruption, crime and killings.

A place like FATA where the jihadis rule, a city like peshawar where on the verge of collapse, a town like Liyari in karachi where no police dare to go, these are the signs of collapse of a state, and gives reasons for any pakistani other than tahmed to desperation.

Zubair,

What pakistan lacks is some inteligent people. Can you beleive that teh pak govt did not oppose the suddel case and now they are thinking of teh consequences, They have now appealed the decision.

These are the lawyers of pakistan, the educated of pakistan and they have no clue about what is happening. The reason is simple, the educations ystem is so corrupt that the illiterates are getting degrees.

SC judgment opens Pandora’s box full of hopes
Friday, July 11, 2008
By Ansar Abbasi

ISLAMABAD: After a recent Supreme Court judgment, a retired police officer wants to get back on his job and keep working until he is 73 years old, if the SC decision is used as a precedent.

The SC recently allowed the Intelligence Bureau chief Dr Shoaib Suddle to continue as a government servant till he makes up the loss of years during which he was illegally forced out of job.

As apprehended by the government, the authorities have started receiving written as well as verbal requests from many of those who were suspended or dismissed but later reinstated or made OSDs, to keep working even after their retirement age of 60 years.

akcheema,

In pakistan poverty is increasing while in india it is on the decline. There is hope among the indians, they can see improvements while the pakistanis can see only decline, hopelessness and desperation. The power cuts, food riots, bomb blasts, crime these are all on the increase in pakistan and no sane pakistani can hope for the best.

The increase in crime is unprecedented by any standards, and the collapse of all institutions.

Beginning of iraquisation.

A few more paki troops killed. If these trops are not engaged in stopping the jihadis, they are fair targets.

Edhi fears bloody revolution if poverty not eradicated
Friday, July 11, 2008
By M. Waqar Bhatti

Karachi

If poverty, hunger and other miseries are not eradicated, the current situation in Pakistan would lead towards bloodshed and lawlessness, Abdul Sattar Edhi said Thursday.

“I am not a politician but I am in favour of a violent, bloody revolution to bring about drastic changes in Pakistan. I am a supporter of violent revolution to end social injustices from the society. If poverty is not eradicated, I’m foreseeing a bloody revolution here. People are dying of hunger but the rulers are busy somewhere else,” he told The News while collecting alms outside the Quaid’s mausoleum.

Zubair bhai,

Th deal will not work, simply becuiase it is intended to protect the paki army from suicide attacks in islamabad. The jihadi attacks in afghanistan will continue under this deal and uncle sam does not like that. The basic fact is that a jihadi seeks death and if pakis are not going to do it, then he will have to go to afghanistan to get killed. Simple as that.

There can be no peace deal with jihadi groups.

US carrier moved to Arabian Sea


WASHINGTON, July 8: A US aircraft carrier has moved to the Arabian Sea to support military operations in Afghanistan, leaving the Gulf without a carrier, US defence officials said on Tuesday.

The shift by the USS Abraham Lincoln over the weekend comes amid stepped up insurgent violence in Afghanistan where US combat casualties have been on the rise even as they have dropped sharply in Iraq.

Contribution of islam to china. From dawn of today

China kills five Muslims training for 'holy war' BEIJING, July 9 (AFP): Chinese police killed five Muslims in its far northwest who were planning to wage a “holy war” against the nation's majority Han population, the official Xinhua news agency reported on Wednesday. Five were killed and 10 arrested on Tuesday when police raided their hide-out in Urumqi, the capital of the Muslim-populated Xinjiang region. “The suspected criminals that police killed and nabbed... were from a 'holy war' training group,” Xinhua said, citing an Urumqi police spokesman.

Islam and civilisation.

Civilisation die very hard, even after thousands of years of foriegn rule, hinduism survived. Evenm after years of japanese rule, chinese civilisation survived. Now both are flourishing.

Take the case of the heart of islamic world, suadi arabia, even with all the wealth of the oil, especially from teh seventies, what did they do with it squandered it all. See now, the muslims have ordered 3 A380s, in executive comnfiguration, for the travels of the muslims shiekhs. The money was never spend in a wise way, educating the people, creating centres of learning, creating a propsperous society rich in lasting values.

The reason is simple, there is nothing called islamic civilisation, islam is all about following the book, that does not leave any room for anything.

Look at the case of simple art like painting, per koran no human or living thing should be painted, islamic art has been reduced to caligraphy, stylised writing of teh words from koran.

This happened in every walks of life, stimied and strangled by the book.

Thsi has reduced to dost mitter claiming that islamic contribution is jilebi, well it is an iranian dish dating to pre-islamic times.

Islamic contribution to man kind is zilch.

Sorry I am wrong here, all of teh security develeopments of today, especially the unmanned aerial vehicles are in fact due to jihad, a true islamic contribution. Yes, islam has contributed to teh development of weapons to contains jihadis, if you consider that as an islamic contribution.

When serial blasts by the jihadis happened in India, pakistan refused to cooperate. Pathetic pakis like zeemax are still categorising the jihadis...kashmir jihadis who attack only india, anti hindu jihadis who bomb indian every where including afghanistan...now the poor pakis whave oto create a new class..serial bombing jihadis.

Newly added to thsi typology is the bank rober jihadis.

Take it from me pakis, jihadis are general purpose killers, they will kill any one whom the mullah orders them to kill. That si what has happened in karachi.

The poor reporter of the item below is mystified, better he reads and understands about jihad from my posts.

Series of blasts terrorises, mystifies Karachi



By Tahir Siddiqui


KARACHI, July 7: Terror struck the city six times within an hour on Monday as unknown terrorists triggered a series of blasts that wounded over 50 people, including children and policemen.

The blasts occurred between 7:05pm and 7:50pm, with an interval of eight to 10 minutes, at Banaras Chowk, Orangi Town, Pak Colony and Shahrah-i-Noorjahan.

The DIG of Karachi West, Aleem Jaffery, told Dawn that 41 people were injured in the series of blasts at five places. “No one was killed in the blasts, however,” he added.

Observers and analysts found the serial bomb attack in the provincial capital different from the usual pattern of terrorist strikes in the country. Most of the bombs used were of a low intensity and designed more to spread panic than to cause large-scale human casualty.
Democracy is the Best Revenge?
Posted by jayp Jul 8, 2008 02:46 am
In the great islamic tradition, every thing is the tribal attiotude of revenge and honour. No doubt in a country where honor killing is legal, it is understandable that democracy is a matter of revenge against mushy, against nawaz and others on a personal level.

In an islamic country, there can be no concept of democracy, it has to have a prefix, basic democracy, enlightened democracy ..../ A klalifayat is what the book talks about.

In a country where everything has to eb per sharia, the notion of people ruling is absurd. The govt has to be same as what the book says, or that existed at the time when the laws given in the book made sense.

It is good to see that in FATA, the real pakistan is emerging, the DVd shops are burnt, music stores are burnt...thousands are watching public beheading..as in the times of teh book.
