Bakistani motorhama Aafia Siddiqui gets to keep her US vija
A US appeals court on Monday upheld the conviction and 86-year prison sentence of Pakistani neuroscientist Aafia Siddiqui for shooting at FBI agents and soldiers after her arrest in Afghanistan.
Siddiqui’s defense lawyers, three of whom were paid by the Pakistani government, argued that their client had shot at the US officials in a panic and said the crime lacked any connection to terrorism.
Hopefully, these lawyers can now have more success in defending Qadri back in their homeland with a less kaffir judge sitting in judgement.

Pak Challenge for India, US - Bruce Riedel
Pakistan could unambiguously use its influence with the Taliban to encourage them to engage in a serious political process with Kabul while breaking definitively with al Qaeda.

If not, then US and India need to work more closely on how to engage Pakistan and its army’s excesses.

The last Indo-US strategic dialogue session spent considerable time on the future of Afghanistan. That is a step in the right direction.

She deserves treatment too. It is clear that Malala was not shot (in the head or wherever)
The sister of a man, who is a suspect in the Malala Yousufzai shooting case, has apologised to the teenage Pakistani rights activist, saying that her brother had brought shame to their family.

"Please convey a message to Malala, that I apologise for what my brother did to her," Rehana Haleem said, referring to the actions of her 23-year-old brother Attahullah Khan.

Ramana garu, there a typo onlee. What riedel saheb wanted to say was :
Pakistan could unambiguously use its influence with the Talibanpakistan to encourage them to engage in a serious political process with Kabul while breaking definitively with al Qaeda pakistan.
then he read it and realized that it would confuse the foggy bottomers more than their brain can withstand. So he changed it to this.

It is unbelievable the naivete exhibited by the so-called american geopol experts. and what is more breathtaking is the sheer besharami they display wrt India.

if pakis can control the haqqanis excesses against the US forces then India doesn't come into picture - US can merrily go on arming the pakis while yindoos can keep dying in terror attacks. but if pakis don't do that, then suddenly pakiland becomes a joint problem of US and India.

The US is also fighting a drone war against terrorist targets from al Qaeda and associated movement inside Pakistani territory despite the explicit request of the Pakistani parliament and foreign ministry that they cease flying.
:D The Pakistan Army, with Jihad ul fistula as its motto have not said anything about drone strikes. But Paki losers still admire their cowardly army.

Guys,

WRT, Madam Fair, one must understand, that she is a yank. She will further the yank interests, however, that might be. At the moment she thinks that it can be served by divorcing TSP. So she will advocate it. If she thinks that partnering India and bombing TSP into 7th century, will get the job done. she will advocate just that.

No need to get worked up about it.

Peshawar suicide blast kills top Pakistan police officer
A suicide bomber in north-western Pakistan has killed a senior police officer and at least four other people in the city of Peshawar, officials say.

They say that the bomber, who was on foot, targeted the car of Assistant Superintendent of Police Hilal Haider in a congested part of the city.

Pakistani newspapers said that police bodyguards were among the dead.
...
...
Police say that at least 30 people, including passers-by, were injured in the latest incident, for which no group has claimed responsibility.

Here is some Paki Humor to lighten up the day:


Published on November 6, 2012
By Beenish Ahmed
Pakistan: The Real Swing State: Eurasia Review

Outside a downtown Islamabad coffee shop that sells an assortment of French macaroons (cupcakes are so passé), I strike up a conversation with Omar Malik. :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

A 34-year-old who works for a private telecommunications company, Malik seems liberal. Liberal in the way Americans stumbling through Muslim-majority countries might find comforting.

He’s dressed smartly in a collared shirt—with only the appropriate number of buttons unbuttoned. He sips a latte and speaks in flawless, albeit slightly accented, English.

When it comes to American politics, though, he isn’t technically “liberal” —at least as far as U.S. political categories go. :rotfl: {Yeah, he belongs to the minuscule minority in Pakistan who aren't 100% liberal}

“Republicans have historically always been better for Pakistan than Democrats,” Malik says matter-of-factly. “In terms of the relations that we have had, I think Bush was a much better president than Obama or Clinton was.”

He leans back in his lawn chair when I inquire further. This is not what I expected to hear from a man outside a posh cafe on a Saturday night, but he continues, “In terms of foreign policy, in terms of [not] giving preference to India over Pakistan, the Republicans have been much more balanced,” Malik says.

I remind him of how, when pressed during the presidential debate on foreign policy, Mitt Romney said he’d continue President Obama’s policy of using drones to target terrorist enclaves in Pakistan.

But Malik is resolute. He chalks Romney’s assertion up to campaign rhetoric. The sort of tough-on-terror talk, he says knowingly, that Obama also ran on four years ago.

Pakistan has long been seen by American analysts as a “wildcard” state—a sort of trick card that either appears as a Queen of Hearts or a Joker depending on when, and for how long, you look.

It’s a trick ordinary Pakistanis—who would probably just as readily fill the streets to protest America as they would to claim a visa if the United States decided to offer up them up for free—can play just as well. Nearly three-fourths of Pakistanis polled said they see the United States as an “enemy.” That’s up from 64 percent just three years ago.

As if to say “if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em,” another recent poll found that 43 percent of Pakistanis claimed they should have the right to vote in U.S. elections, a number topped only by people in Kenya, China, India, and Cameroon.

“Pakistanis should be given the right to vote,” says Rahat Khan, a 27-year-old who manages supply orders at a construction company in Islamabad. He adds completely earnestly, “After all, all of the decisions made about Pakistan are made in America.”

Khan even goes so far as to say that Pakistan should be made the “53rd state”—although he’ll likely have to brush up on his geography should he ever decide to actually apply for U.S. citizenship and cast a ballot in American elections.

If he could vote, Khan says, he’d cast a vote for Obama. But there’s one issue that he can’t get behind. “Being a patriotic Pakistani,” Khan insists, “I must say that drone attacks should be stopped.”

Like many Pakistanis, Khan sees the use of drones as an affront to his country’s sovereignty. The continuing attacks on sites the United States identifies as terrorist enclaves in the tribal areas are approved by only a small number of elite Pakistanis. He says the unmanned assaults kill more innocent people than the terrorists they target.

The vitriolic issue of drone strikes is compounded by a number of other incidents that have stoked Pakistani anger at America.

In January 2011, CIA contractor Raymond Davis shot and killed two Pakistani men in the city of Lahore. To make matters worse, a car coming to aid Davis from the U.S. consulate killed a man in the street before speeding off down the wrong side of the road. Although “blood money” was paid to the victims’ families, the incident spurred a public outcry over the evident impunity for Americans who had committed murder.

Then, last November, a U.S. attack on a military outpost near the Afghanistan border killed 24 Pakistani soldiers, leading Pakistan to close NATO supply routes into Afghanistan. The passages remained closed for months.

And of course there was the unannounced raid in which U.S. Navy SEALS killed Osama bin Laden four months ago, which Pakistanis largely believe to be either offensive or fictitious.

Add up these incidents—along with the anger over the hokey film trailer defaming the Prophet Mohammad that inflamed the rest of the Islamic world—and it’s easy to come up with Obama’s incredibly low approval rating in Pakistan. Still, it is surprising that Pakistanis would see Obama on par with former President George W. Bush, whom many across the world still disapprove of for starting two wars on feeble foundations.

The poll, which was conducted by the Pew Global Attitudes Project, found that Pakistan was the only country of the 15 polled where ratings for Obama were no better than those maintained by former President George W. Bush.

Thirteen percent of Pakistanis polled said they would vote for Obama if they could, over a mere 9 percent who say they would support Romney. But the more telling statistic might be the 47 percent who believe that neither candidate would change U.S. policy.

The district government of Lahore recently tried to rename a square in the city after the famous Punjabi freedom fighter Bhagat Singh. The effort was part of a larger civic activity for revitalising the city by restoring historic buildings and renaming roads and buildings after remarkable
figures, reclaim the city’s Punjabi history and to connect with its South Asian cultural roots, something that has not happened in Pakistan in the last 65 years. {start with a bait WKK will surely take}

Unfortunately, the project was stalled after 13 members of a 19-member committee objected to the renaming of the square. Their argument: it is against the Islamic ethos of the country and a significant place in a Muslim country cannot be renamed after a Sikh. This may sound vicious but I am not surprised: it only proves that nothing has changed {What is the reference point? If it was from the start then it means the famous secular speach of Djinnah} in Pakistan and powerful stakeholders like Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD) are still calling the shots and forcing the nation to stay stuck in an artificial ideological bubble. A couple of week ago I visited Lahore and spoke to some Left-leaning youngsters No names. Are there such people? Who are they? Those who use their left hand?. They did not agree with my argument that key segments of society are becoming more susceptible to cultural conservatism and latent radicalism. Pointing out that certain segments of the civil society wanted to rename the square, they argued that an equal space for an alternative narrative was being built slowly but gradually in Pakistan. This thinking reflects their desire but not the reality: the Pakistani society has slowly and gradually moved away from its pluralism to search for a singular coherent identity. {Whaddya mean? It was found even before Pakistan was founded. Remember a letter from the Djinnah}
This situation is not inconsistent but part of the process of de-colonisation of a State. There are many who would remember the days of a seemingly more liberal Pakistan. I have seen comments and articles in newspapers talking about how international and multi-cultural were cities like Karachi.{What else would one sane person expect from the financial capital of the state formed to house the momeen}

So, what is changing in Pakistan and why is it changing?

The change in Pakistan towards a more singular, conservative and religious narrative is partly a natural process of the change in society as it travels away from its colonial past. In fact, any post-colonial society would echo its colonial legacy in the formative years. The shift in the ensuing years then depends on the dominant political, social and cultural narrative.

In Pakistan, the dominant ideology has always been religion, irrespective of the type of government. So be it liberal generals like Ayub Khan, Yahya Khan and Pervez Musharraf, conservative general like Zia-ul-Haq, or liberal civilian leader such as Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Benazir Bhutto or conservative politicians like Nawaz Sharif and Imran Khan, religion has dominated the discourse in the country.

The situation became even more intense after the 1980s when the Zia regime brought religion into all aspects of the State and society. This was a watershed and after this the direction of society began to change. Therefore, the ruling elite of the pre-1980s was culturally and socially more liberal and had a different character than the post-1980s elite. Today, it means nothing when people try to invoke the concept of a liberal Pakistan as envisioned by Mohammad Ali Jinnah.

There are people who are fond of quoting Jinnah’s August 11, 1947, speech {oh yeah it was coming} in which he welcomed religious minorities to pursue their own faiths without any intervention or interruption by the State. The question whether he might have stuck to this secular position if he was alive is open to debate. However, the important thing is that the subsequent incorporation of religion in the Objectives Resolution 1949, a fundamental document that provides a roadmap for Pakistan’s constitution, the State agreed to adopt religion as a defining principle of law-making and structuring the State and society.
Then the State got into random partnerships with religious entities (though for pragmatic reasons) and that sharpened the religious colour of the State. Today, after six decades of Independence, the Pakistani State and society is irretrievably close to a right-wing religious identity. Given the issues of politics, skewed distribution of resources and other similar problems confronted by a Third World developing State, the bulk of the poor people or even those in the middle class are made to believe that liberal secularism is part of some foreign agenda that society must stay away from. Pluralism has become a victim of such a mindset. So the Pakistani State today is not comfortable to associate with its own indigenous legacy {anything in addition to Bhagat Singh that can be listed?}because it extends beyond its adopted religious-cultural discourse.

When I heard two weeks ago that there was a plan to rename the square after Bhagat Singh, I wondered if it would happen at all. Perhaps some fledgling liberal might put a name plate on the square that no one will notice, and life would move on Why not just try? Will be a good learning experience. But I don’t feel disappointed now because at least, I know that society is comfortably on the path of a single religion-laced identity Nawlage is empowering. The JuD has sufficient influence to block such moves that may remind the ordinary people that they are also part of the rich heritage of South Asian.

Of course, I don't know about the article you are refring to, but just look at the brazen chutzpah of this perverted b!tch in demanding acceptance of TSP's so called nuke doctrine.

This is far from true. To understand the strategic rationale for Pakistan’s fissile material needs – achieving credible nuclear deterrence at the lowest possible cost and level – the issue must be placed in a proper, broader perspective. It means taking into account the chain of rapid developments that have undermined the region’s strategic equilibrium and affected Pakistan’s nuclear threshold. They include the Indo-US civilian nuclear deal, exemption for India by the Nuclear Supplier’s Group, India’s conventional military and strategic build-up, enunciation of offensive doctrines involving ‘Proactive Operations’ and efforts to develop a missile defence capability.
I mean no introspection of the terror pit that TSP is, but brazen demands for parity with India. Its like a serial rapist demanding compensation from the victim. These roaches need to be destroyed, no rational discourse is possible.

Khan, chief of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, also said if his party comes to power, he will not allow terrorism against India to originate from his country's soil
How come 'mumbai-like attacks' possible, if he doesn't allow 'terrorism against India to originate from his country's soil'. Scratching my head onlyee.

'Time's up for solving Indo-Pak issues through militancy or military'
Pakistani cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan today said time was up for trying to solve Indo-Pak issues through "militancy and militarily" but asserted that unless Kashmir issue was resolved, there was "always a possibility" of Mumbai terror attacks.

Khan, chief of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, also said if his party comes to power, he will not allow terrorism against India to originate from his country's soil.
And he was trumpeted as a liberal by WKKs. Supposed to be the keynote speaker of 'Headline's Today's' India Leadership Summit. Unfortunately or rather fortunately Salman Rushdie got the invite.

Extreme caution is needed for duplicitous policies from world powers. A known bloodthirsty terrorist like hApigz Saeed is roaming free on pious land of Islam even with bounty on his head and no one says a word, including bounty hunters, is an indicator that powers are feigning emotions and nothing more. Even a mocking cruel offer of help to USA during last cyclone in and around the New York city shows how poisonous snakes are ignored & kept alive near borders of India.

This is but an indicator and must not be ignored in any calculations.

Mullah Fazlullah Is Not Our Problem : US Officials :D
Finding Fazlullah is not a priority because he is not affiliated with al Qaeda or with insurgents targeting US and Afghan interests”, the officials said as per the report.

“Our guys just aren’t tracking him,” a senior Special Operations official said. “He is viewed as an ‘other-side-of-the-border’ problem.
But Ankil will still force (or try to force) Paakhani Army to act against its Strategic Assets. And they, the Pakis, still consider their Army to be brave one :P

If John Kerry or Elizabeth Warren become Secretary of State, a seat from Massachusetts would become free, and it can go to a Republican, thus Democrats would lose a seat in the Senate. Susan Rice however has a chance, however she hasn't really had any high profile run in the UN, except may be on the Libyan Resolution. May be better if a CIA man gets the job.

Pakistan PM asks Swiss to reopen graft case against president
Pakistan’s prime minister has asked Swiss authorities to reopen an old corruption case against President Asif Ali Zardari, succumbing to pressure from the country’s increasingly powerful Supreme Court.

The court gave Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf until November 14 to submit the request, threatening to charge him with contempt of court or face disqualification if he did not comply.

LAHORE: Insisting the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) was not playing any politics on the subject of foreign teams’ visit to the country, chairman Zaka Ashraf on Tuesday disclosed that the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) was ready to send its team to Pakistan only if foolproof security assurance was provided to the visitors by all provincial governments.

Both mushy and im da dim are right. Technically, at least. PoK and the tribal regions of the northwest are out of paki control and thus not paki territories. The paki governments can't control what happens there. Thats the same technical lie one heard from the pakis when they said there were no "cross-border" incursions because the border is actually a "line of control".

Taqqiya all the way. Thats the way of life there.

As a matter of fact, Duspercenti was one of the first leaders from overseas to congratulate Obama. Zardari congratulates Obama.
...he was confident their countries’ relations would “continue to prosper"

Imran Con's comment about more Mumbai's only reveals that Pakistanis have no control over Islamic militia inside Pakistan. The politicians of Pakistan can only bleat things in support of what those militia demand - or at worst they can remain silent.

All Pakistani politicians (despite the huge media lie that there is a "civilian government" in Pakistan) control a very limited space in Pakistan. Foreign policy control is shared between the army and non unifomed jihadi groups. Sectarian divides are controlled by the jihadis onlee, even the army does not dare step in.

We tend to visualise Pakistan as all people within the borders that we see on the map. But Pakistan has internal borders - like city areas controlled by different thugs.

Imran Khan will have no say in foreign policy, defence procurement or sectarian issues. Howevr the jihadis cannot force their views in areas where the army controls things. And the civil politicians operate in the in between spaces where neither the army nor the jihadis can exert control. The situation can be visualised like a house with a garden. You may own the house, but the trees are inhabited by birds and the grounds may harbor other small anmals that you cannot stop. Those birds and animals do not invade the inside of your house that you control, but even inside there may be some bugs that you cannot check.

Pakistan is called a country, but is actually an area of land that is in a state of anarchy with no single group exerting full control. No need to pay too much attention to Imran's farts, fragrant as they may seem to those who admire his handsome demeanor. He is telling the truth as he understands it. He will get cuttled unless he bleats the K word as the army and jihadis want.
