This failed coup has exposed army's vulnerability for the first time.

You are not considered a serious terror org if you don't have a branch in PakistanPESHAWAR: Al-Qaeda´s new South Asia branch Thursday claimed responsibility for a weekend raid on a Karachi naval yard that left a sailor and three attackers dead, saying former military officers had helped in the attack.
It claimed that the target of the raid was a “US supply ship” and said the dead attackers included former Pakistan navy officers. It was not immediately possible to confirm whether a US ship was present at the port.

The newly-formed Indian subcontinent division of transnational terror group al-Qaeda has claimed responsibility for Saturday night’s attack on a Naval dockyard in Karachi — the organisation’s first strike since its existence was made public last month. The attackers, the statement said, were former Pakistan Navy officers-turned-jihadists who were attempting to hijack a missile frigate to stage an attack on a United States aircraft carrier.
“They had taken over control of the ship and were proceeding to attack the American carrier when they were intercepted by the Pakistan military,”the statement says. “These men thus became martyrs. The Pakistani military men who died defending enemies of the Muslim nation, on the other hand, are cursed with hell”.
Though there could be the usual exaggeration by the AQ (a Pakistani characteristic indeed), it is still a serious matter and a real possibility. This also explains the lid that put on this incident for a few days before matters began leaking out. Even now, we are only having a trickle of info unlike any of the earlier attacks. The late Syed Saleem Shehzad linked serving PN officers with AQ for the PNS Mehran attack. Apparently, some naval officers had been arrested for AQ links as part of a crackdown on PN's links with AQ and the AQ demanded their release. As the talks failed, the attacks took place. The rumour was that the arrested PN officers & sailors were plotting to attack the Americans. The disquieting thing was not only the sizeable penetration into the PN by the AQ but also the fact that the Admirals were talking directly to the AQ for a compromise! Surprisingly, the linkage between the PN and the Islamists goes a long way back. During Ayub's last days, a clutch of naval officers wanted Mawdoodi to take control of Pakistan and plotted to capture Ayub Khan (along with the Afghan King when the two were fishing off Karachi). The thing to note is that the Punjabis dominate the PN even more than they dominate the PA. Former CNS of the PN, Adm.

"I come in the morning and submit my CNIC (Computerised National Identity Card) to Qadri's people who then give us our daily wages of 300-400 rupees ($3-$4). We then sit around here all day," said Niaz Ahmed, a daily wage labourer.

At least three women protesters, all of them domestic workers, said they had been paid to come to the rallies when they were first launched. One of them, with three children under the age of six, said mothers were paid 2,500 rupees ($25) more.
"You got paid more if you have a child," said Rukhsana Bibi, one of the women. "They wanted more women with children to join the rallies so the pay for that was higher.
SS Anna, Now you know why Pakis are getting PC3 and submarines from USA. This is to fight the future naval war with TTP which would include PN sailors from both sides.SSridhar wrote:Though there could be the usual exaggeration by the AQ (a Pakistani characteristic indeed), it is still a serious matter and a real possibility.

However, once again the Talibs are found wanting in execution. The loss of veterans like Ustad-e-Fidayeen, Qari Husseein Mehsud et al is telling perhaps.

They disown their country.CheersWithout the Indus and the two rivers that remain to us, the Jhelum and the Chenab, what would become of our land? Field Marshal Ayub Khan did not sell off the Ravi and the Sutlej. Under the prevailing circumstances – circumstances that remain valid even today – the Indus Basin Waters Treaty was the best arrangement for sharing the waters of the five rivers. And despite so much else happening between India and Pakistan this treaty has held over the years.
The Pakistani mind should wake up to some basic facts. India is not stealing our waters. India is not trying to destroy us, or wreck our agriculture, through manipulating the Jhelum and the Chenab. It is only managing its share of the waters far better than us. Why aren’t we building the dams that India is building on these rivers?
Under the terms of the Indus treaty we could have pre-empted much of what India is doing, or has already done. But we were into other things, like liberating Kashmir by force and establishing influence in Afghanistan. On the question of the waters India stole a march on us…and the situation now, with the building of more dams on the other side, is working to our disadvantage.
We should build mile high border fence ASAP to keep out inbred diseased Pakistanis who think that fourfather's khujboo is == sleeping elephant.

That is no cause for celebration. Kashmir is NOT an issue, not even a bilateral one between India and Bakistan. In such a case, when a Brishit MP blasts Bakshitstan he is claiming Brishit stake in Cashmere and if we "thank him" for it, we are giving him more power and legitimacy to stick is nose into our affairs again at some future time.venug wrote:Apologies if posted earlier, from titar:

To say that Pakistani journalists are under attack is an understatement. They are lucky if not assailed or killed.
Pakistan’s treatment of journalists is shoddy at best. With the outsourcing of geographical control to militant networks, several journalists have been attacked in Pakistan’s conflict areas, with Balochistan topping the list.
According to the Population Council, a non-governmental organization based in New York, Pakistan’s population is projected to reach 302 million by 2050. Pakistan’s current population is around 200 million people while in 1947, the year it gained independence, Pakistan had only 33 million people.
The future economic and political consequences of this population growth are dire, especially since Pakistan has not experienced the type of economic growth or industrialization necessary to employ millions of young people.
Like many South Asian states, Pakistan’s state institutions are relatively weak, a problem compounded by the fact that it inherited little of British India’s institutions.
Evil Hindus who did not share the brishit institutions with the more deserving pakis will now have to bear the consequence of explosive paki population growth.Unfortunately, Pakistan’s attitudes towards India often obscure the problem in Pakistan. On one hand, there is some belief that Pakistan can only challenge India with a large population; therefore, it is not in Pakistan’s interest to limit population growth.
First Bakistan Have no population problem but Bopulation Broblem. They are 193 Million now and will at least double in in next 20 Year.

According to informed sources, the attack was carried out entirely by serving Navy personnel, along with Owais Jakharani, a former Navy cadet who could have been given access inside without too much trouble.
“The group of would-be hijackers, led by a senior officer, was even saluted by the guard at the bottom of the gangway, before another became suspicious of their intentions and alerted other personnel.”

Were they also pensioners?Dawn has been given information that the weapons had already been smuggled into the dockyard and had been stored in lockers by the rogue personnel.
Will they also recruit brand new swimmers?Shreeman wrote:Bakistan is moving all of the navy -- air, ship, and submarine arms --- out of karachi at a very very fast rate. Half is already gone to two other pirts. Rest within the year or so. All that will be left is the shipyards, and ability to use as a third port in case of war. Even P3 types will operatte away frrom karachi.
