Re: Terrorist Islamic Republic of Pakistan (TSP): May 8, 201
increasingly it looks like india talking peace is designed to upset the paquis more and more, its the diplomatic equivalent of giving them enough rope to hang themselves. an anti-india platform is the last hope of paqui coherence... and in effect a double dare to unkil (especially seen in the light of the recent aid pronouncements in kabul - despite several unkil commentators suggesting we butt out of there) - its a bit like saying 'go ahead paqui's, make my day...'
Re: Terrorist Islamic Republic of Pakistan (TSP): May 8, 201
sum, the answer to your question lies in the fact that a 'boundaryless jihad' is going on. Those who are waging this jihad have enemies who are not only kafir but even co-religionists who are murtad or takfiri and hence ripe for killing.sum wrote:Would have understood if a Paki was bumped off in KSA due to KSA anger at Pak for hiding their enemy, Bin Laden... why would a Saudi be bumped off in TSP?
Remember that OBL was most antagonistic to the Saudi Royalty whom he called 'corrupt' when he was in a charitable mood ? They exiled him, deprived him of his assets, made his family disown him, made it impossible for him to mett his beloved mother, and more than anything else allowed the Crusaders to set foot on the Land of the Prophet. His hatred towards them was as deep rooted as the Christians and Jews. So, those who represent the Royalty were legitimate targets for him and his followers. I am sure that this attack was planned by the Arabs (the Ikhwanis) who were part of his entourage in retaliation for Abottabad though it might have been actually carried out by any faction of TTP. There is no dearth of these people in Karachi.

Re: Terrorist Islamic Republic of Pakistan (TSP): May 8, 201
To a large extent that is true. Through counter operations, intelligence, blandishments, tight leash on Islamist mullahs, by vetting the Friday qutbahs in mosques and other such acts, KSA has succeeded to a large extent in eliminating Al Qaeda operations within the Kingdom. There are still remnants, one of whom tried to assassinate counterintelligence chief Prince Mohammed bin Nayef in August 2010. Measures were tightened even more after that.Lalmohan wrote:it also indicates that al-q ability to operate in the KSA is limited - if the only hit they can make is inside pakistan
Pakistan has learned or does not want to learn anything from their ummah brothers.

Re: Terrorist Islamic Republic of Pakistan (TSP): May 8, 201
I have written to Anatol Lieven's colleagues (the head of department, and the acting head of deprtment, of the War Studies Department) at King's College, London to express my disappointment at his article in The National Interest. Others feel free to write to his other colleagues (past and present), if you can find the mail IDs. Anatol Lieven's credibility needs to be systematically questioned.
"Dear Professors Frost, Berdal
I would like to bring to your attention an article published by your colleague, Professor Anatol Lieven, in The National Interest, dated 9 May 2011. The internet link is provided below:
http://nationalinterest.org/commentary/ ... istan-5275
In this article Prof. Lieven writes:
"As I have written, I—like many other observers and, indeed, officials—was prepared to extend a measure of tolerance to the Pakistani military for its shelter to the leadership of the Afghan Taliban and past support for terrorist attacks on India (if only because this so clearly reflected the democratic will of the great majority of Pakistanis), as long—but only as long—as they genuinely and effectively cooperated in preventing terrorist attacks on the West; since after all that is what our soldiers in Afghanistan are supposed to be there to prevent."
It appears that Prof. Lieven is prepared to tolerate those who support or supported terrorist attacks on India as long as those same people cooperate in preventing terrorist attacks on the West. Furthermore, he justifies his tolerance of such people by stating that their support of terrorism commanded democratic support.
This strikes me as being a grotesque viewpoint, and entirely opposed to basic moral and ethical values.
I never thought the day would come that a Professor at Kings College London would provide qualified support, but support nevertheless, for supporters of terrorism. I did not at all expect that a leading British university would include on its faculty staff that provide qualified support for terrorism, provided that the victims are non-Western and the perpetrators are prepared to cooperate to avoid terrorist attacks in the West.
Also, why does Professor Lieven believe that the "great majority" of Pakistanis are complicit in their support of terrorism directed at India. Is this not also a great slur on the people of Pakistan?
And what is India to make of a grotesque morality that tolerates terrorism against India for certain perceived benefits in preventing terrorism against the West?
What is the moral message here? Where is the decency? Where is the common sense?
Yours sincerely,
etc."

Re: Terrorist Islamic Republic of Pakistan (TSP): May 8, 201
Nightwatch on TSPA
One Asia Times on Line analyst provided a reminder last week that Chief of Army Staff General Kayani was the head of the Inter-Services Intelligence Directorate at the time bin Laden arrived in Abbottabad, six or, possibly. seven years ago. Musharraf was the Chief of the Army Staff and the leader of Pakistan by dint of his 1999 illegal overthrow of elected government. Kayani was his hand-picked successor as Chief of Army Staff.
Official remarks in parliamentary closed sessions last week that lament an intelligence failure leave unclear to what failure they refer. The implication is that it is not the presence of bin Laden but rather the failure to anticipate and detect the US raid against Abbottabad.
Pakistani officials are now blaming the US, according to a 15 May report in the Washington Post, for the ruin of the Army and the country. This is venting because the dominant culprit in ruining the country is the Army.
Under Musharraf, the economy declined. The number of madrasahs increased exponentially under Musharraf's regime, just as they did under Martial Law Administrator General Zia ul Haq. The Army made political deals with the Islamists against the civilian parties.
So Gen. Kiyani no different than Mushy both == when it comes to TSPA battle ready status.The Pakistan Army was unprepared for war and was unable to complete its preparations for war with India in 2001 and 2002. It remains unable to complete its mobilization and accomplish its readiness doctrine.

Re: Terrorist Islamic Republic of Pakistan (TSP): May 8, 201
For most of us on BR, what Anatol dude is puking now overtly, was obvious from US and lackeys' policies since 9/11. Namely, attack the SDREs, no problem, but go after and hand over the terrorists of interest to the west. And nobody has been consistently pointing this out than me, albeit in colorful language no doubt .
Just recall what Al Qualin Bin Paveel said when Mushrat attacked the J&K legislature soon after 9/11. He facetiously referred to that as an "Indian facility" in Kashmir. Then recall how state dept characterized the attack on Indian parliament on 12/13. They said both India & TSP must cooperate with US in the fight against terror instead of fighting each other. Sorry to raise your BP. But that was how much importance TSP terror against India was given by US and its lackeys. And as this disgusting fraud was being inflicted on India, we had none other than VajpayeeJi declaring that India and US are natural allies onlee .
I think TSP overplayed its card, and at the same time, there are genuine differences between US & TSP. First, I have no proof, but just speculating knowing TSP perfidy that TSP wanted to sacrifice OBL at the right moment for something big in return, but the Abottabad raid punctured that grand plan mercilessly, assiduosuly built up by TSPA/ISI over the years. This is where TSPA/ISI overplayed their game.
Then, there is Haqqni/Mullah Omar-led Taliban, which is a source of genuine difference between US & TSP. How this plays out will have an impact on India.
Recall, post 9/11, I have also been saying that as much as India has been made the sacrifical goat by US (with willing Indian leaders like MMS/Sonia) to appease TSP and continue their Indian containment policy, at the end of the day, if TSP were forced to reconcile a genuine, peaceful Afganisthan devoid of Talibunniees and out of TSP control, that would still be good for India.
However, I wouldn't put it beyond the abilities of the deceitful but brilliant US strategists to somehow come up with a plan to secure their interests, and yet restore enought H&D and power to TSPA/ISA so they continue to do the west's dirty job of bottling India in "South Asia".

Just a general observation. East Europeans are very much conscious of their not-quite-white status. It is a amusing to see their contortions to be accepted as full fledged Europeans. Reminds me of some Goans in their abject debasment.

During the WWII, when things were done incorrectly, commonGermans would say, if only He knew what was being done in his name. The HE was of course Hitler. If only he knew about the corruption, if he knew about the ill treatment of the communists, about the black market, the arrest and deportation of Jews and so on. Then when Ernst Röhm was arrested and shot, some one said if only he knew earlier that Rohm was a homosexual, at this some one quipped, wait till he comes to know about the club foot of Goebbels!
The fact is the US leadership has enough maturity to know what is going on. Furthermore, they spend enormous amounts in intelligence gathering to keep themselves informed. Pakistan can not teach them anything. The US behavior to India is a well calculated one and it is not based on ignorance. They have chosen to believe something that they think is in their interest.

Also to hit this guy in head, do point out that the democratic will of the great majority of TFTA Pakis is to slave trade in white British girls, which by his logic should also be welcomed following the great democratic principles he is misquoting.

Now Kiyani and his cohort are pretending to be under political control to divert the anger in TSP.

I was thinking about what Shiv had posted a couple of pages back, about Pak Fauj smarting under the Abbottabad insult and planning some strike to restore its H&D...
If we were to consider India as an obvious target, would Paki Fauj attempt a full blown confrontation a-la Kargil? Perhaps not, given the pathetic state they are in and absence of even minimal US support..
So, the Pakis would plan to do something spectacular that lifts their morale sky high and at the same time attracts limited international opprobrium, and also throw some powerful sections of India into confusion.....
I am thinking of a scenario of perhaps some action against Paki hate figures like Narendra Modi, Bal Thackeray..maybe the Abdullah family/ Jagmohan? A kidnap/ assault attempt against one of these people by the Paki SSG??
Who knows, if this happens, Pakis start playing up the yada--yada on Gujarat, and the international community, a-la the likes of Lieven and Kerry lap it up..and of course have the Indian fifth columnists run amok..
Or is the above total BS, and I should get some sleep??

Re: Terrorist Islamic Republic of Pakistan (TSP): May 8, 201
Making sanitisation of Pakistan conditional upon giving Indian territory to Pakistan is sort of like the "butterfly effect" where you can connect a broken bottle of coke to terrorism and Nukes in Pakistan.
For those who would delve a little deeper and the question "how is it connected" the answer would be evident - the narrative is quite random when viewed unto itself. Alas, with the general public and the coffeehouse denizens of the world and our own nation, the lie has been repeated so often that people spout the statement with conviction and believe it - sort of "the world is flat".
Given that BRFites thanks to BR are looking at the nooks and crannies of this, I am certain that several would understand the source of this narrative. The origin lies in the scripted and well designed partition of India where the global elites kind of sort of crippled India through social, cultural and spatial constraints (look at the map of POK and the routes that it deprives us to etc - it is no accident). These guys have played out the various scenarios and the Indian state of J&K yields the highest domino effect required to contain India for centuries - subsequent to the vivisection of other Indian states such as Gandhar, Sindh etc. Attempts have been made to detach this state since prior to partition (one only has to study the whole Sheikh Abdullah affair and who was behind it) and make it part of the unstable "occupied territories of western India" comprised of Af-Pak and sorts. All actions of the proxy state of Pakistan (and on one occasion - the proxy state of China) have been directed towards detaching this territory. It is absolutely crucial for those behind Pakistan that this territory detaches and they will use all means - external and internal to accomplish this.
In light of this, that the establishments voices are crowing about J&K despite the OBL/ Abbottabad discovery is self evident. It has little to do with Pakistan and more to do with the urgency behind detaching the territory - before India becomes stronger. Additionally, there must be a real fear that Pakistan as a proxy will be dysfunctional soon as a result of which a very crucial weapon in the detachment will be lost. Additionally, their other partially proxy state has kinda sorta gone rogue. Hence prior to Pakistan succumbing to rabies, India must be contained and all tools will be used for that including insiders. At the same time, public sentiment towards Pakistan is shifting so establishment voices have to speak louder on the Pakistan terrorism - J&K connection.
Post the recent events in Pakistan, one may expect more around J&K and more noise internally by anti nationals as well. I expect the tempo to go up given there may be a real fear that the cats paw is dreadfully sick.
The sequence of events in India in the last 20 years are no coincidence.

Who knows, if this happens, Pakis start playing up the yada--yada on Gujarat, and the international community, a-la the likes of Lieven and Kerry lap it up..and of course have the Indian fifth columnists run amok..
Or is the above total BS, and I should get some sleep??

Addtionally more they talk about J&K and Pak , Muslim, Islam and Ummah more they suppress India and its growth.Jarita wrote:Making sanitisation of Pakistan conditional upon giving Indian territory to Pakistan is sort of like the "butterfly effect" where you can connect a broken bottle of coke to terrorism and Nukes in Pakistan.
For those who would delve a little deeper and the question "how is it connected" the answer would be evident - the narrative is quite random when viewed unto itself. Alas, with the general public and the coffeehouse denizens of the world and our own nation, the lie has been repeated so often that people spout the statement with conviction and believe it - sort of "the world is flat".
Given that BRFites thanks to BR are looking at the nooks and crannies of this, I am certain that several would understand the source of this narrative. The origin lies in the scripted and well designed partition of India where the global elites kind of sort of crippled India through social, cultural and spatial constraints (look at the map of POK and the routes that it deprives us to etc - it is no accident). These guys have played out the various scenarios and the Indian state of J&K yields the highest domino effect required to contain India for centuries - subsequent to the vivisection of other Indian states such as Gandhar, Sindh etc. Attempts have been made to detach this state since prior to partition (one only has to study the whole Sheikh Abdullah affair and who was behind it) and make it part of the unstable "occupied territories of western India" comprised of Af-Pak and sorts. All actions of the proxy state of Pakistan (and on one occasion - the proxy state of China) have been directed towards detaching this territory. It is absolutely crucial for those behind Pakistan that this territory detaches and they will use all means - external and internal to accomplish this.
In light of this, that the establishments voices are crowing about J&K despite the OBL/ Abbottabad discovery is self evident. It has little to do with Pakistan and more to do with the urgency behind detaching the territory - before India becomes stronger. Additionally, there must be a real fear that Pakistan as a proxy will be dysfunctional soon as a result of which a very crucial weapon in the detachment will be lost. Additionally, their other partially proxy state has kinda sorta gone rogue. Hence prior to Pakistan succumbing to rabies, India must be contained and all tools will be used for that including insiders. At the same time, public sentiment towards Pakistan is shifting so establishment voices have to speak louder on the Pakistan terrorism - J&K connection.
Post the recent events in Pakistan, one may expect more around J&K and more noise internally by anti nationals as well. I expect the tempo to go up given there may be a real fear that the cats paw is dreadfully sick.
The sequence of events in India in the last 20 years are no coincidence.
The sequence is very well calibrated and check when Anatol articles come up and how frequently and we see more on J&K and other issue such as IndiaPakistan. Most of these media circus and policy are scripted in London rather than DC.
One internet comment shows the thinking
ONLY EXISTENCE OF INDIA, GIVES BREATH TO PAKISTAN ... AFT U.S EXIT, WAR IN WAZIRISTAN WILL COME TO AN END IN 2014 ... AND WAR WILL BE STARTED IN KASHMIR IN 2014 ... SO WAKE UP SIDE, TALIBAN BUTCHERS ARE PREPARING TO CUT REAL HINDU THROATS .... YOU`VE CREATED 30 THOUSAND MILITANTS TO BREAK EAST PAKISTAN .. THIS IS OUR BIRTH RITE TO HV MUMBAI ATTACKS AGAIN AND AGAIN UNTILL V HAVE NUCLEAR WAR ...NASR MISSILE IS A BIG BREAK THROUGH IN FACE TO FACE WAR HAVING NUCLEAR WAR HEAD WITH RANGE 60 KM ..

vanand - most likely scenario is to ratchet up the tension in srinagar area and have street protests again
Re: Terrorist Islamic Republic of Pakistan (TSP): May 8, 201
Which barbarian was named NASR that the Paki named their latest abomination?
Is it named for some Egyptian jihadi?
Due to its extreme short range, I think it will do nas bandi to them.
Total Kalidasa weapon.

Post OBL world,India-US relations also have China in the equation especially when Pakistan is concerned.It is not a first degree partial differential equation,its a 2nd degree partial differential equation.

PM reviews security threat from Pakistan, China
May 16, 2011 11:03:06 PM
IANS | New Delhi
A day after Pakistan's spy chief threatened reprisal attacks in case New Delhi attempted a special operation against terror suspects on its soil, India Monday carried out a comprehensive review of its security preparedness amidst reports of the presence of Chinese soldiers in Pakistani Kashmir.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh chaired the review with the three armed forces chiefs providing their inputs to the assessment of the security situation against the back drop of the killing of Al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden by US special forces at Abbottabad in the heart of Pakistan May 2, sources said here.
Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) chief Ahmed Shuja Pasha had warned India that an Abbottabad-like operation by New Delhi would invite a fitting response, with Pakistani armed forces having "identified" specific targets and carried out "rehearsals" to attack them.
The 90-minute meeting held at the Prime Minister's house was attended by Defence Minister A.K. Antony, National Security Adviser Shivshankar Menon, Air Force Chief Air Chief Marshal P.V. Naik, Navy Chief Admiral Nirmal Verma, Army Chief General V.K. Singh and Defence Secretary Pradeep Kumar, the sources said.
At the meeting, the armed forces' preparedness to meet any security challenge that may be posed by terror networks in the region and conventional threats from Pakistan's armed forces came up for review.
"The prime minister was briefed on the overall security measures and the general preparedness of the defence forces. Issues like changing security situation in Pakistan and the situation along the Sino-Indian border were discussed," defence ministry officials said here.
This meeting comes less than a week after Antony held a similar two-day review of overall security of the country and coastal security in particular with maritime agencies and two days after the prime minister returned from Kabul, where he had discussed the latest developments with Afghanistan President Hamid Karzai.
The Indian Army has also raised its alertness level in the wake of reports that Pakistan may try to infiltrate militants into Jammu and Kashmir.
It has also raised an alarm over Chinese military personnel's presence in Pakistani Kashmir in the guise of engineering workers and the threat posed by the large neighbour to the security of Jammu and Kashmir.

Can we please keep away from stigmatizing fellow Indians? I know you emphasized "some" but that way we can still attack any group. Stereotyping non-Indians would be ok for making an insightful point as you did in this case.sanjaykumar wrote:Just a general observation. East Europeans are very much conscious of their not-quite-white status. It is a amusing to see their contortions to be accepted as full fledged Europeans. Reminds me of some Goans in their abject debasment.

Why does one assume that the Nasr will be used on Pacqui territory onlee, what prevents them from using it on the advancing IA division before it crosses the IB( assuming that the Nasr actually works and the Pacquis are stupid enough to start a new-clear war)

VikasRaina, Kalidasa was supposed to have been found high up on a tree sawing off the branch he was sitting on. In other words a self-defeating move!
