سنڌين کي بين الاقوامي اسلامي يونيورسٽي اسلام آباد اچڻ جي دعوت – مبارڪ علي لاشاري

آچر ڏينهن تاريخ 2009-05-31 تي پاڪستان جي سڀني وڏين اخبارن ۾ بين الاقوامي اسلامي يونيورسٽي اسلام آباد ۾ خزان سيمسٽر سال 2009ع جي داخلائن جو اشتهار ڇپيو آهي. بين الاقوامي اسلامي يونيورسٽي، هڪ انفرادي سڃاڻپ رکندڙ يونيورسٽي آهي. اها يونيورسٽي شهيد ذوالفقار علي ڀٽو جي خوابن پٽاندر OIC جي چارٽرڊ يونيورسٽي آهي. 60 ۽ 70 جي ڏهاڪي ۾ جڏهن اسرائيل عرب ۾ مسلمان دنيا تي پنهنجي جارحيت جو مظاهرو ڪيو ته تڏهن شهيد ڀـُٽي اسلامي دنيا کي گڏجڻ جو هڪڙو خواب ۽ آدرش ڏنو جيڪو OIC يعني Organization of Islamic countries جي شڪل ۾ هڪ تنظيم وجود ۾ آئي. انهي تنظيم جي اصولن، فيصلن ۽ شهيد ڀٽو جي آدرشن لاءِ سڀني اسلامي ملڪن ۾، هڪڙي هڪڙي بين الاقوامي اسلامي يونيورسٽي جو قائم ٿيڻ ضروري هو، جنهن آدرش تحت بين الاقوامي اسلامي يونيورسٽي ملائيشيا، بين الاقوامي اسلامي يونيورسٽي بنگلاديش ۽ بين الاقوامي اسلامي يونيورسٽي اسلام آباد پاڪستان جو قيام عمل ۾ آيو. پر وقت ۽ حالتن شهيد ڀٽو کي وڌيڪ زنده رهڻ جي اجازت نه ڏني ۽ OIC غير فعال ٿي ويو ۽ باقي ملڪن ۾ انهي يونيورسٽي جون شاخون نه کلي سگهيون. پر اهي ٽيئي يونيورسٽيز هڪٻئي سان ڳنڍيل ۽ هڪ ئي چارٽر تحت هلي رهيون آهن.

بين الاقوامي اسلامي يونيورسٽي اسلام آباد آدرش شهيد ڀـُٽي جو هو پر ان جو افتتاح جنرل ضياءَ الحق 1980ع ۾ ڪيو ۽ شروعات ۾ اها يونيورسٽي داخل ٿيندڙ سڀني شاگردن کي اسڪالرشپس ڏيندي هئي جيڪا اڄ به جاري آهي. پر هاڻ محدود ٿي وئي آهي. هن يونيورسٽي جي پراڻي ڪئمپس فيصل مسجد وٽ آهي، جتي لائبرري، بئنڪ، ڪلاس رومز، بڪ شاپ وغيره آهن جڏهن يونيورسٽي جا شاگرد وڌي ويا تڏهن وڌيڪ جڳهه جي ضرورت پيش آئي. تنهن وقت شهيد بينظير ڀٽو جي حڪومت هئي، جنهن کي نظرياتي طرح هن يونيورسٽي سان ڪافي لڳاءُ هو تنهن اسلام آباد ۾ هڪڙو پورو سيڪٽر H-10، هن يونيورسٽي جي نالي ڪيو. ايتري ايراضي اسلام اباد ۾ شايد ئي ڪنهن ٻي يونيورسٽي کي هجي.

بين الاقوامي اسلامي يونيورسٽي اسلام آباد اسلامي ملڪن سان گڏوگڏ باقي سمورن اولهندن ملڪن ۾ هڪ سٺي ساک ۽ سڃاڻپ رکي ٿي، ڇو ته سندس ڏيک ويک جديد دنيا جي تقاضائن موجب آهي. هي يونيورسٽي بدقسمتي سان اسان جي سنڌي ماڻهن ۾ هڪ محدود شناخت رکي ٿي. ڇو ته سندس خيال موجب هي هڪ مدرسو آهي، جتي صرف شريعت، حديث، اسلامي قانون ۽ اسلام پڙهايو وڃي ٿو، جيڪا ڳالهه غلط آهي. آئون هن يونيورسٽي ۾ پي ايڇ ڊي انگريزي جو شاگرد آهيان، جڏهن سنڌ ۾ يونيورسٽي جو تعارف ڪرائيندو آهيان ته اهي حيران ٿيندا آهن ته تون مدرسي ۾ انگريزي ڪيئن پڙهين ٿو! هن يونيورسٽي ۾ انجنيئرنگ، ميڊيڪل، ڪمپيوٽر سائنس، اڪنامڪس، بزنس ايڊمنسٽريشن، انگريزي ادب ۽ زبان سان گڏوگڏ تقريبن سڀ سوشل سائنسز جا شعبا آهن ۽ جديد تعليم سان هم آهنگ آهن.

هن يونيورسٽي متعلق هڪ ٻيو مفروضو اهو آهي ته انهي يونيورسٽي ۾ صرف مسلمان ئي پڙهي سگهن ٿا، جيڪا غلط ڳالهه آهي. هن يونيورسٽي ۾ چين، جاپان، انڊونيشيا وغيره جا غير مسلمان شاگرد زيرِ تعليم آهن پر ان سان گڏگڏ لڳ ڀڳ 25 کان 30 سنڌ جا هندو شاگرد تعليم پرائي رهيا آهن. ان ڪري مذهب جو ڪو قيد ناهي. هن يونيورسٽي جي هڪ ٻئي سڃاڻپ ڪو ايجوڪيشن Co-education نه هجڻ آهي. هن يونيورسٽي ۾ نياڻين لاءِ الڳ ڪئمپس، ڪلاسز، فيڪلٽي ۽ ايڊمنسٽريشن بلاڪ آهي. شاگردياڻين جا والدين نياڻين کي هتي داخل ڪرائي اطمينان حاصل ڪندا آهن. پر افسوس جي ڳالهه اها آهي ته هن يونيورسٽي ۾ پڙهندڙ 15 هزار کان ڌيڪ شاگردن مان سنڌي شاگرد هڪ 100 به مس آهن، جيڪو تعداد هڪ سيڪڙو به ناهي جڏهن ته هن يونيورسٽي جو پهريون صدر اي ڪي بروهي ۽ پهريون ڊائريڪٽر ڊاڪٽر اين اي بلوچ سنڌي هئا ۽ اڄ پڻ هن يونيورسٽي جو صدر ڊاڪٽر انوار حسين صديقي حيدرآباد جو سنڌي آهي. ان ڪري اسين سڀني سنڌي ڀائرن ۽ ڀينرن کي گذارش ڪيون ٿا ته تازو اعلان ڪيل داخلائن لاءِ اڳتي وڌن ۽ پنهنجي حيثيت ۽ علم دوستي جو ثبوت ڏين ته جيئن وڌندڙ دنيا سان اڳتي وڌي سگهجي. اسين هن يونيورسٽي جا شاگرد، پنهنجن ايندڙ ڀائرن ۽ ڀينرن جي هر ممڪن مدد لاءِ تيار آهيون

Pakistan’s Lawyers Movement: Who Achieved What? – A Must Read – Pak Alert Press

Pakistan’s Lawyers Movement: Who Achieved What?

http://pakalert.wordpress.com/2009/06/02/pakistans-lawyers-movement-who-achieved-what/

The Lawyers’ Movement initially began as a results of the actions taken by General Pervez Musharraf on 9th March, 2007. Pervez Musharraf, after getting intelligence that Chief Justice of Pakistan Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry was conspiring with Nawaz Sharif to overthrow the government called for a meeting and asking him to resign or face “charges of misconduct”. The Chief Justice refused to resign and preferred to defend the charges. Within two months the movement took the path of Color Revolution, getting enormous funds from USA and other countries with the main aim of destabilizing Pakistan and forcing Parvez Musharraf out of office. The organization and publicity of the entire campaign is calculated to have cost around Rs. 30 billion. How much did this cost Pakistan? There is no work done, however, a good estimate would be around US$ 100 billion.

Why America?

Although the movement was jump started by Nawaz Sharif, on the way it became the main vehicle for USA to remove Parvez Musharraf who was not going for US backed Central Asian pipelines but leaning towards China. Bush Administration was convinced by Dick Cheney that if Musharraf stays in power China will get the Central Asian fuels. After Dick Cheney’s February 2007 visit of Islamabad and Kabul CIA starts working with RAW in Afghanistan to arm the suicide bombers and militants in the Red Mosque in Islamabad as the first phase. The process takes nearly a month during which time in a seperate incident Musharraf dismisses the Chief Justice of Pakistan. Seeing the Lawyers Movement as a better vehicle, the American and Indian efforts turn from Red Mosque to the movement.

Another aspect of ousting Musharraf was his decision to clamp down on the drug trade through Pakistan. This would have affected above all, Ahmad Wali Karzai (younger brother of Afghan President Hamid Karzai) who earns an annual profit of US$ 1 billion (10% of total Afghan drug money), CIA’s black operations wing and its related US personnel. Thus it was the personal agenda of many in Bush Administration and Pakistan and Afghanistan’s US Embassies to get Musharraf out before he puts a stop to the highly lucrative drug trade.

See: Afghan Drug Trade for a complete look on how many US Officers profit from Afghanistan’s opium trafficking.

Why Dick Cheney?

Early 2007 Parvez Musharraf had decided not to go for Unocal (now Chevron Corporation) and Halliburton backed Central Asian pipeline which would have cost Vice President Dick Cheney great sums of money. Thus a personal agenda was turned into a revolution. He tried all in his power to get Musharraf out within the tenure of his Vice Presidency and get Pakistani Government’s approval for the billions of dollars worth Central Asian pipeline to be built by Unocal and Halliburon.

Timeline of Lawyers’ Movement

• 04 Feb 2000: Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, then 52, is appointed to Pakistan’s Supreme Court. He supports President Parvez Musharraf, voting to ratify the general’s 1999 military coup.

• March 2005: the Chinese National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) tries to acquire Unocal with a bid that valued Unocal at between $16 billion and $18 billion. Following a vote in the United States House of Representatives, the bid was referred to President George Bush, on the grounds that its implications for national security needed to be reviewed. CNOOC withdrew its bid. Soon after, Unocal merged with Chevron.
• 18 Jul 2005: The Indo-U.S. civilian nuclear agreement, known also as the Indo-US Nuclear Deal, refers to a bilateral accord on civil nuclear cooperation between the United States of America and the Republic of India.

• 09 Mar 2007: Musharraf removes Chief Justice Iftikhar Mohammed Chaudhry, after the agencies find sufficient proof that he was conspiring with Nawaz Sharif against the government. Nawaz Sharif had promised to make him the President of Pakistan once he becomes the Primie Minister of Pakistan.

• 15 Mar 2007: An accute shortage of black colored jackets and coats appear throughout the country. Prices of black colored cloths and coats sky rocket because of the demand. (The Reason: Thousands of people are buying black coats which represent lawyers uniform ahead of the protests in the country).

The ruling Republican Party’s International Republican Institute (IRI) had conducted the previous four ‘briefings’ in June and September 2006 and March and April 2007. Benazir leaned towards the Democratic Party in the last one no doubt as a hedge against the party’s possible victory at the forthcoming US Presidential Election.

The government managed to recover 1,300 men, women and children during the operation. Some of these women, who were recovered safely on the last day of the operation, had their written death wishes with them. Six hundred suicide bombers are present in Karachi revealed Qasim Toori and Danish alias Talha during interrogations by law-enforcement agencies. Most of the suicide bombers are also former students of Islamabad’s Lal Masjid.
• 17 Jul 2007: Assassination attempt is made on Chief Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry however, he escapes[3].
• 20 Jul 2007: the Supreme Court of Pakistan restored the Iftikhar Mohammed Chaudhry with full dignity and authority.

• 20 Aug 2007: Ifikhar Mohammad threatened Tariq Pervez (the director-general of Pakistan’s Federal Investigation Agency) with jail if he did not produce ghost detainee Hafiz Abdul Basit. Chief Justice Chaudhry ordered “He must be produced today or you will be sent to the lock-up.” Under this threat he was released by the intelligence agencies. Hafiz Basit was later implicated by Musharaff government in the assassination of Ms Bhutto.
• Sep 2007: Benazir visited the Senate in September 2007, she had convinced the Bush Administration of her unswerving loyalty; for ’she received a standing ovation from a select gathering of US lawmakers, diplomats, academics and media representatives. This contrasted sharply with her previous visits to the US capital when she received little attention.’
• Three weeks later Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice made it appear the Bush Administration wished to bring together ‘moderate’ forces, implying a scenario in which Musharraf and Benazir would join forces as President and Prime Minister respectively; and Deputy Secretary of State John Negroponte corroborated Rice: ‘Our message’, he intoned, ‘is that we want to work with the government and people of Pakistan’.
• 18 Oct 2007: An assassination attempt on Benazir Bhutto is made (2007 Karachi Bombing) but she survives. President Parvez Gen Musharraf calls the attack on Ms Bhutto’s convoy was a “conspiracy against democracy”[2] (hinting towards the US involvement towards overthrowing the government).
• 03 Nov 2007: Musharraf imposed state of emergency. Constitution was suspended. Sixty independent judges were dismissed. Intelligence agencies start systematically killing behind the scene key players in the conspiracy to overthrow the government. Some of these include: Zubair Ahmed Mujahid (shot dead 23 Nov),
• 05 Nov 2007: Police raided the Lahore High Court Bar Association (LHCBA). After baton charging and throwing tear gas into the premises, arrested more than 800 lawyers.
• In the wake of the imposition of emergency rule in Pakistan, on November 14, 2007, the Harvard Law School Association decided to award its highest honour, the Medal of Freedom, to Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry, following the military crackdown the previous week. He becomes the first Pakistani to be presented with such honour.
• The National Law Journal picked Mr. Chaudhry as the lawyer of the year for 2007.
• The Association of the Bar of the City of New York granted Iftikhar Chaudhry an honorary membership in the association on Nov. 17, 2008, recognizing him as a “symbol of the movement for judicial and lawyer independence in Pakistan.”
• 27 Dec 2007: Benazir Bhutto is assassinated while Nawaz Sharif escapes an assassination attempt. The two attempts are very different in nature. Benazir Bhutto is assassinated in a typical CIA style while Nawaz Sharif’s attack was more like a domestic killing. It is obvious that Asif Ali Zardari acted on his own to carry out Nawaz Sharif’s assassination. Following Benazir’s assassination planned riots, looting and chaos errupts simultaneously throughout the country. Within a week the country looses nearly 10 billion dollars[5].
• 9 Mar 2008: leaders of political parties Asif Ali Zardari , Pakistan Peoples Party and Nawaz Sharif Pakistan Muslim League signed an agreement to restore the judges within 300 days of formation of national government. Zardari backed out and the coalition failed to restore the judges.

• 18 Aug 2008: Musharraf resigns.

Foreign investment and funds in the revolution stops at this point.

• 25 Aug 2008: PML-N leaves the coalition government.
• 6 Sept 2008: Asif Ali Zardari is elected the President of Pakistan by the parliament.
• 25 Feb 2009: Supreme Court disqualifies Nawaz Sharif and his brother Shahbaz Sharif from holding or contesting public offices.
• 11 Mar 2009: Several hundred lawyers and opposition party’s political workers and leaders were arrested. Ban was placed on rallies and protests in two of the Pakistan’s four provinces.
• 12 Mar 2009: Lawyers, political workers and civil society gather in several cities for the Long March to Islamabad. Scuffle with police, hundred of arrests were made, none allowed to leave their cities for Islamabad.
• 15 Mar 2009: authorities placed Nawaz Shairf, Atizaz Ahsan and many other leaders under house arrest. Shairf broke through the road blocks with his supporters and came out on the roads in Lahore to begin the Long March. This is believed to be the turning point of the movement Thousands of people joined the rally.
• Midnight 15/16 March, 2009 government gave when thousands of people moved towards Islamabad lead by Nawaz Sharif. Iftikhar Mohammed Chaudhry was restored as Chief Justice of Pakistan and other judges dismissed by Musharraf.

US and Canadian Involvement

During the Lawyers’ Movement a completely new dimension of indrect involvement of USA in overthrowing a government was seen. The prominent of these were:

• 33 US Senators wrote to President Musharraf to release Barrister Aitzaz Ahsan immediately.
• The US magazine Foreign Policy named Aitzaz Ahsan as one of the top 100 public intellectuals in the world in May 2008.
• In early 2007, Musharraf was extremely popular. According to a US survey, IRI President General Pervez Musharraf was more popular in Pakistan than opposition leaders Benazir Bhutto and Nawaz Sharif. Around 37 per cent of the respondents were of the view that Musharraf’s supported PML-Q deserved to be re-elected. However, by August 2007, after the lawyers Judicial Activism started, Musharraf became slightly unpopular in Pakistan due to persistent media efforts and anti-Musharraf talk shows. An International Republican Institute survey, taken of 3000 people, showed that 64 percent of the population did not want another term to be granted to Musharraf as the president of Pakistan.
• USAID spent more than US$ 150 million (part of the American fund on terrorism which is “given” to Pakistan) within a year on helpding the movement.
• GEO TV which charges Rs. 100,000 per minute of air time showed continued transmissions of upto 30 hours. During the year the channel was spending more money than it showed in its tax returns. The only unaccounted profit was for “Voice of America” show. But whatever GEO TV was getting for airing the show it was enough to turn higher profits than airing aids for 30 hours (=Rs. 180,000,000 or US$ 3 million). And we are taking about this much money every day.
• Why was Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) distributing funds during the movement is anybody’s guess?
• Human Rights Commission, e.g. see the case of Imran Munir

Impact of Lawyers’ Movement

Pakistan’s economy suffered gravely, government focus shifted from work and economy to non-violent solution for the lawyers. PML-N was already fully involved from the onset, however, other political parties also jumped on the band wagon causing more disruption in daily life. The poorest and daily labourers suffered the most because of strike calls and road blockages.

The real story on the road was that poorest don’t wake up every morning to see Iftikhar Choudhry wearing a black suite, sunglasses, sitting in a new car parading on the streets of Pakistan, the poorest wake up and hope for a better day, a day in which they can increase their earnings and support their family, bring food to the table, they don’t want to see the roads blocked and strikes called which stop them from earning their daily livelihoods.

As the riots and protests were held in the summer months, the intense head resulted in numerous deaths and hospital admissions because of heat exhaustion, nearly all of which were small time lawyers and their family members travelling either on foot or in non-airconditioned cars.

However, the behind the scene aim of ousting Parvez Musharraf was achieved at the end.

Go Musharraf Go

Interestingly enough the salogans along the protests were not anything like “bring back Iftikhar Chaudhry” but they were “Go Musharraf Go, Go Musharraf Go.” The questions need to be answered that if the lawyers really wanted Iftikhar Chaudhry reinstated then why were they continuously chanting “Go Musharraf Go”.

Also, there were sixty judges dismissed however, only one was being paraded around and continuously given coverage and publicity.

End Result

Dick Cheney achieved the milestone of ousting Pervez Musharraf however, his final goal of getting the pipeline deals for his company did not materialize even after the change of the regime.

• Aitzaz Ahsan – earned world-wide fame, became a hero in Pakistan – monetary benefits yet to come
• Munir A. Malik – earned tens of millions of dollars

Indirect Beneficiaries

There were some indirect beneficiaries of the entire movement such as:

• Imran Munir

Collateral

Or in other words, Losers.

• Benazir Bhutto (assassinated 27 December 2007) – she was in for power
• Pervez Musharraf – out of office
• Syed Hammad Raza (shot dead 14 May 2007) – he was in to get an important political seat
• Kenneth Scott Andrew (murdered 8 April 2007) – to get promoted
• Zubair Ahmed Mujahid (shot dead 23 Nov) – to get promoted
• Dick Cheney – did not get the pipeline deal
• Brigadier Ravi Datt Mehta (assassinated 7 July 2008) – to get promoted to Major General

Lesson

Lesson: Unless you are as cunning and conniving as Munir A. Malik or Aitzaz Ahsan in a high level and stakes conspiracy you are very probable to end up dead. Don’t play for emotions or ego, play for money and you will win.

یہ نہ ہوتا تو کوئی ۔۔۔ – حسن مجتییٰ

سندھ میں کچھ قوم پرست جماعتیں ہر سال مئی یا جون کے مہینوں میں اپنی سرگرمیاں تیز کردیتی ہیں جن میں خاص طور پر ہڑتالیں، تحریکیں اور لانگ مارچ منظم کیے جاتے ہیں۔ لیکن مئی اور جون مہینے کیوں؟

سندھ میں سیاست کی اندرونی دنیا کو قریب سے جاننے والے جانتے ہیں کہ ایسی کئی پارٹیوں کے لیڈروں اور ان کی فیملیوں کے کاروبار اے کلاس سرکاری ٹھیکوں یا کانٹریکٹوں پر مشتمل ہیں اور مئی اور جون سال کے ایسے مہینے ہیں جن میں پاکستان میں نئے سرکاری ٹھیکے یا ٹینڈر جاری کیے جاتے ہیں۔ حکومت چاہے کسی پارٹی کی بھی ہو لیکن ایسی قوم پرست پارٹیوں کے لیڈر نئے ٹھیکے اور ٹینڈر اپنے حق میں کروانے کے لیے ‘جدوجہد تیز ہو’ کہتے میدان میں نکلے ہوئے ہوتے ہیں۔
یونین اور ضلع کاؤنسلوں کے ٹھیکے ہوں یا پھر ہائی ویز کی تعمیرات یا پھر ٹول ٹیکس یا چونگی ناکہ کے کانٹریکٹ، سندھ میں ایسی کئی انقلابی پارٹیوں کے عظیم لیڈروں اور ان کے خاندان کے افراد کو حکومت وقت نے ٹھیکے دے رکھے ہوتے ہیں کہ ان پارٹیوں کو سندھ میں لوگ کہتے ہی ‘ٹھیکہ پارٹی’ ہیں۔

ان ‘ٹھیکہ پارٹی’ میں ایسی عظیم تحاریک اور لانگ مارچ منظم کرنے والے عظیم قائدین بھی ہیں جن کے ٹھیکے ملک گیر سطح ملتان اور پشاور تک پھیلے ہوئے ہیں بلکہ جاننے والے تو جانتے ہیں کہ ایسے رہنما اور پارٹیاں اپنے قومی ایجنڈے اور سیاسی اتحاد حسب ٹھیکہ بدلتے رہتے ہیں۔

ماضی میں اچھے دنوں میں اگر عوامی نیشنل پارٹی کی حکومت صوبہ سرحد میں تھی تو سندھ کے ان عظیم رہنماؤں کے زبردست اتحاد عوامی نیشنل پارٹی سے تھے کہ ایک ایسی سندھی پارٹی کو ٹھیکے پشاور میں اے این پی حکومت کے اثر رسوخ سے جاری کیے گئے تھے۔ اگر ٹول ٹیکس کے ٹھیکے جنوبی پنجاب اور اسکے دیگر ضلعی ٹھیکے تھے تو سندھی سیرائکی حقوق پر زیادہ زور دیا جاتا رہا تھا۔ پنوعاقل کی فوجی چھاؤنی اور کالا باغ ڈیم کی تعمیرات کے ٹھیکے بھی اگر ان کو ملیں تو یہ وہ لینے میں پیچھے نہیں ہٹیں گے۔

یہ جو حال ہی میں صوبہ سرحد یا پختون خواہ میں فوج اور طالبان کے ستائے ہوئے اندرونی طور نقل مکانی پر مجبور پختونوں کی سندھ میں آمد کے خلاف پر تشدد تحریک ابھری ہے اس میں زیادہ تر وہی ٹھیکہ پارٹیاں لینڈ و بھتہ مافیا کے ساتھ کسی نہ کسی طرح انتہائی سرگرم دکھائی دیتی ہیں۔ اگر صوبہ سرحد سے انتہائي انسانی مصائب کے شکار پختون سوات سے سندھ میں نہ بھی آتے تب بھی ان ٹھیکہ پارٹیوں کو اگلے ماہ جاری ہونے والے حکومتی ٹھیکوں کے لیے کچھ نہ کچھ کرنا ہی تھا۔:’یہ نہ ہوتا تو کوئی اور غم ہونا تھا۔‘

Lahore Explosion: RAW strikes again – An attempt to eliminate Hafiz Saeed?

“Information coming in from security officials in Lahore suggests the actual target was the Lahore High Court building where Jama’at-ud-Dawa’s Hafiz Saeed was attending his court hearing at the time of the explosion.” By PKKH

“This is the third time in two months when Lahore has been jolted by the notorious Indian Agency RAW. As per the media reports ,the explosive-laden pick up truck failed to reach the ISI building and blew off at a barrier close to the complex. Reports said some suspects, who were detained in connection with the March 3 terror attack on the visiting Sri Lankan cricket team in Lahore, were inside the ISI office when the blast took place. The ISI building sustained some damage due to the impact of the explosion. There were also reports of sporadic firing in the vicinity. The various news channels said seven bodies have so far been recovered from the debris. The windowpanes of nearby buildings have also been shattered in the blast and many Rescue15 vehicles have been destroyed. The entire building of Rescue 15 has reportedly collapsed in the blast. Security forces have cordoned off the area and shifted injured and bodies to hospitals. Emergency has been announced in local hospitals.” By Zaheerul Hassan

Preparing for war on Pakistan

Sara Daniel in her latest article, titled The Bomb Within Range of the Taliban has put together all propaganda lies about Dr. Qadeer Khan, the Al-Qaeda myth, Taliban fighting against Pakistan Army in Swat, Islamic extremist groups, etc. – all the crap Zionists in Washington and Tel Aviv would love the world to believe in. Her entire rant revolve around Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal, which according to her CIA source – poses greater nuclear threat than N. Korea and Islamic Iran – though the later is still few years far away developing a nuclear bomb, according to CIA and Mossad. In her self-denial – she ignore to mention the real threat posed by the 240-plus Jewish nuclear bombs, according to European Union Poll 2003.

Not A War For America’s Pakistani Apologists

Prime Minister Gilani, Foreign Minister Qureshi and Interior Minister Malik are now talking about support for the terrorists – the so-called Pakistani Taliban – from Afghanistan. Why did Mr. Qureshi and Mr. Malik not mention this when both were in Washington? And why no one is taking up the venomous anti-Pakistan propaganda in the U.S. media? A weak official stand is adding to the confusion over the real meaning of the latest military operations in our northern and western belts. Suddenly we have American apologists inside Pakistan, including some political parties, claiming vindication for the exaggerated notion of ‘Talibanization’. Unfortunately, this is a sad example of using the occasion to settle scores in the secular-religious debate. It is about Pakistan making a final push against criminal militants in the north and the western belt adjoining Afghanistan after concluding that a large portion of this insurgency consists of shady terrorists and handlers pushed inside Pakistan from a neighboring country.

Video: Pakistan Missiles Far Ahead of India

With a range of between 2000 km to 3,500 km, Pakistan’s Ghauri and Shaheen (Hatf Series) nuclear-capable are capable delivering nuclear warheads to any part of India.

In response, the only nuclear-capable ballistic missile in India’s arsenal which can be said to be 100% operational as of now is the short-range Prithvi missile (150-300km)

Though the 700-km Agni-I and 2,000-km-plus Agni-II ballistic missiles are being ‘inducted’ into the armed forces, the earliest when these missiles can be ‘fully-operational in the numbers required’ is by 2012.

Can we really trust Nawaz Sharif?

Sharif’s political beginnings were rather ignominious. He rose to power during the 1980s as a protege of General Zia ul Haq, the military dictator who overthrew and later hanged Benazir Bhutto’s father in the late 1970s. Sharif, whose family’s influence grew out of its significant industrial holdings, ran an iron foundry until 1983, when he became finance minister, and later chief minister, of Punjab. He was elected prime minister in 1990, and, during his two terms (which were interrupted by Bhutto’s second prime ministership), managed to alienate the United States, which had been a cold war ally. In May 1998, he tested a nuclear weapon (ignoring pleas from the Clinton White House). Shortly after that, he tried to impose sharia law nationwide, drawing sharp condemnation from women and religious minorities. “We made a nuclear explosion in May,” said Sharif, who nearly provoked a war with India a year later. “Now we will make another social explosion with this bill.” Sharif was toppled in the October 1999 coup that brought Musharraf to power. A year later, he and his family went into exile in Saudi Arabia. He spent the next seven years shuttling between Saudi Arabia and the United Kingdom, scheming a way to return to office–and his home.

Rejoinder to Ansar Abbasi’s malicious and unsubstantiated report on General Musharraf’s farmhouse

By Architect of Chak Shahzad farmhouse

Mr Ansar Abbasi’s write-up in The News on 23rd May titled “Cheap electricity for Musharraf, ex-ISI chief and others” is a classic case of ‘hearsay’ journalism. Had the writer checked his facts, or at least taken the version of those he has callously accused, as a professional journalist is expected to do, his write-up would have been accurate. Mr Abbasi has claimed that “Gen Musharraf’s farmhouse was provided a free of cost transformer and other equipment in 2006”. This information is totally wrong. The correct fact is that a 25 KVA transformer was installed in 2003 right after Gen Musharraf bought the plot. On 25th Feb 09, as the house was nearing completion, an application was written to IESCO for upgradation of the transformer. A demand note was issued by IESCO on 11th March 09 titled “Extension of load and change of tariff”. A pay order of Rs 376,108 was deposited in the name of XEN(E), Islamabad-1 on 24th March and another pay order amounting to Rs. 102,000 was submitted as security deposit. Consequently, the old transformer was removed and a new 100 kVA transformer was installed. It is evident that instead of investigating the matter and verifying his facts, Mr Abbasi has depended solely on hearsay.

Video: Loud And Clear from Islamabad: Episode 2

In this episode our guest is PML-Q’s Mushahid Hussain Syed – a rare politician with who is not just in tune with the problems that Pakistan faces (having the distinction of being from a middle-class background), but is also quite strong and outspoken in his criticism of not just Asif Zardari’s corrupt government, but also the western-style democratic set-up in place Pakistan.

In this fascinating conversation, Ahmed Quraishi and Mushahid Hussain lift the lid on the sensational and often dangerous levels of incompetence of the current government, the American and Indian designs of using Afghan soil to destabilize Pakistan and the strength and resilience of the Pakistani people who are by now used to staring misfortune in the eye and making their own way through the storms we’ve faced in our 60-odd years. A MUST WATCH Program.

Who is behind TTP’s Terrorists?

Baitullah Mehsud is rolling in dollars and has access to highly sophisticated light weaponry. He is also in possession of highly sophisticated communication equipment, or homing devices in other words. The Pakistan army has been asking the US for help in ‘taking out’ Mehsud and has on at least four different occasions provided the US with accurate information of his location over a period of twelve to twenty four after the US was informed, but he was never targeted.

India Playing With Fire by Supporting TTP

While the U.S. media has frequently reported on Pakistani ties to jihadi elements launching attacks in Afghanistan, it has less often mentioned that India supports insurgent forces attacking Pakistan. “The Indians are up to their necks in supporting the Taliban against the Pakistani government in Afghanistan and Pakistan,” a former intelligence official who served in both countries said. “The same anti-Pakistani forces in Afghanistan also shooting at American soldiers are getting support from India. India should close its diplomatic establishments in Afghanistan and get the Christ out of there.”

Cyber Warfare: Building Attack Tools for Mass Destruction

While the al-Qaeda brand may no longer elicit a compelling response in terms of mobilizing the population for new imperial adventures, novel threats–and panics–are required to marshal public support for the upward transfer of wealth into the corporate trough. Today, “cyber terror” functions as the “new Osama.”

North Korea conducted 2nd ‘more powerful’ Nuke test – Regional Nuke War tension intensifies

Israeli Air Force Holds All Out War Simulation – Tension With Iran Grows

Fighter jets, cargo planes and missile defense systems of the corps took part in the drill where defense from a simultaneous attack against Israel from the south and the north was simulated. During the exercise, the scenario included war against Hamas in the South and war against both Hizbullah and Syria in the North.

Israel preparing ‘classic’ war

“Despite the threat from Hamas in the south and Hizbullah in the north, we are not ruling out the possibility of a ‘classic’ war,” he said. “Such scenarios require sophisticated preparation, and we are giving this much thought.”

The 7th Brigade’s battalions have been deployed along the border with Lebanon, in the West Bank and along the security fence separating Israel from Gaza. “We are implementing our sovereignty in every corner and will do everything we can to prevent any surprises,” Elcabets said.

ANALYSIS: Netanyahu bringing Israel closer to war with Iran

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu considers the lifting of the Iranian nuclear threat his life’s mission. Before coming to power, he had mentioned that such an operation might cost thousands of lives, but the price was justified in view of the threat’s severity. His comments yesterday at the meeting of Likud’s Knesset faction put to rest Ariel Sharon’s doctrine that Iran is not just Israel’s problem but the entire world’s problem, and Israel must not be at the forefront of the struggle. Israel is now at the forefront.

Biblical Prophesy and the Iraq War: Bush, God, Iraq and Gog

There can be little doubt now that President Bush’s reason for launching the war in Iraq was, for him, fundamentally religious. He was driven by his belief that the attack on Saddam’s Iraq was the fulfilment of a Biblical prophesy in which he had been chosen to serve as the instrument of the Lord.

Many thousands of Americans and Iraqis have died in the campaign to defeat Gog and Magog. That the US President saw himself as the vehicle of God whose duty was to prevent the Apocalypse can only inflame suspicions across the Middle East that the United States is on a crusade against Islam.
