Raw Al Pindi - A trial court on Tuesday extended the judicial remand of military dictator and former President, General (Retd) Pervez Musharraf, till May 28 in Benazir Bhutto murder case. Separately, the trial court also adjourned the hearing in bail plea of Musharraf in the same case till May 20, 2013.ATC Judge Chaudhry Habib-ur-Rehman took up BB murder case and granted extension in Musharraf’s remand. .......

I think Badmash will let the law take its course with respect to Mushy's involvement in the BB murder case.

Lines of control

( Strange ==Stories They Make Up )
The story stuck with me as both farce and tragedy, and when I asked about Sarabjit specifically the officer pointed to a prison dorm to our left that housed death-row inmates. He said that most had been there over a decade, if not more. I was not allowed to meet him (you could feel the intelligence informants wetting themselves), but was shown around his living quarters. I had always imagined Death Row to be much more sequestered than the dorms I was seeing here. The prisoners were wandering about or lying on the grass before their next duties, some in groups and others by themselves. All of them looked dead already. I was lucky in that I didn't have to revisit my memory of Kot Lakpat Jail until this week, when news broke that two prisoners attacked Sarabjit with a brick to the head as he exited his rooms. After a weeklong coma in Jinnah Hospital, he was pronounced dead. He had been in this jail for 22 years.Point is: we've both been there. But it seems the Sarabjit case has become a cause celeb in India. Everyone from Mahesh Butt to Salman Khan (isn't he in jail?) to editors and columnists and ministers and high commissions have expressed outrage at the lack of fundamental human rights in Pakistan, deplored the crime of Sarabjit's death and urged the Pakistani people to stand up to their government. Pakistan is once again the barbaric eastern (actually western) badland.I take no issue with the anger of Indians. Singh was an Indian citizen after all and his countrymen have a right to know what happened to him. But what if this turns out to be a prison yard murder, one involving dangerous prisoners and not evil villains twirling their mustaches in plush offices? Where does the outrage go then? Is it still the Pakistani state's fault, or the prison's or the prisoners'? One of the accusations against Pakistan is that we deliberately refused to release him back to India while he was in a critical condition. Logically speaking, it makes sense that we wouldn't. If a prisoner is a prisoner on death row, chances are he is not going to repatriate, even for an urgent medical condition.However, to the Pakistanis who are vehemently defending their state and ridiculing Indian indignation over Sarabjit Singh: what exactly is your argument here? That the murder was a good thing? "Chill out, he was gonna die anyway?" That's bull**** and you know it. (Or should, anyway.)A few years ago I was told on (very) good authority about the case of a Pakistani man who had died while on a trip to India. His family asked that his body be returned so it could be buried and his body was brought back to Wagah where it was supposed to cross back over. However, an Indian intelligence agent refused permission for this at the border. He said that it was impossible to bring the body of the man across the border because the deceased's visa said "Wagah on foot", whereas the body before the agent was clearly, though understandably, supine. "He can't cross over if he's lying down," the agent said. "But he's dead!" my source replied.It didn't help. Eventually they had to stand the casket upright and shuffle it foot by foot over the line of control.

The massacre of ANP via Taliban attacks and IK's PTI plus JI new hold on KP province is probably being welcomed by the Paki establishment as a decisive blow to the Pakhtun nationalist movement.

ANP: anatomy of the defeat
The Awami National Party (ANP), of which Mr Bilour was a senior leader, lost over 700 members to the terrorist attacks.

The ANP came under attack 31 times during the elections campaign. It got people’s sympathy but apparently not their vote. The Pashtun nationalist party was routed in its home province of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The anatomy of this defeat is both complex and tragic. It would never be easy to broach the subject that a party that lost so many lives could lose the elections so decisively. But the issue has to be addressed. The ANP has prevailed in many electoral — and constitutional — battles and has lost some too. By no means is the close of this chapter in the party’s history the end of the long and illustrious tale of the Pashtun nationalist movement, of which the ANP remains the torchbearer. However, for the recovery of the party, and the morale of its cadres and leaders, an honest, swift and across the board introspection is imperative.

Nawaz III

K.C. Singh

Asian Age

http://www.asianage.com/columnists/nawa ... es-are-500

The Pakistan elections have resulted in the launch of Nawaz Sharif III who, much like Sylvester Stallone in Rocky III, is older but expected to box the same way — sprayed blood and grunts.

Mr Sharif went to election promising to end the terror-induced insecurity, attributed by both him and Imran Khan to Pakistan’s war on terror under America’s urging, and a better economic future for the common man. The last was a war cry of the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP), coined by its founder Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, perhaps on loan from Indira Gandhi’s “garibi hatao”, which the PPP could hardly employ without the charismatic Benazir, only having a dithering Bilawal and a cornered Zardari.

The general assessment is that the Taliban, which for Pakistanis is the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and not the Afghan Taliban, tilted the field against the secular parties by targeting only them and not the Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz) or Imran Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI). The latter’s message of change and a “naya Pakistan”, though resonating with urban youth and women, was overpowered by the emotional tug of Mr Sharif’s story of exile and deliberate exclusion from elections in 2008. Moreover, the Sharif brothers cut deals with right-wing groups in Punjab, including those targeting Shias and minorities, for the votes of the poor and the pious.

Mr Sharif’s effusive words of friendship towards India must be read in this context. First, because it was his India policy that led to his differences with the Pakistan Army and then his ouster, he feels some compulsion to revert to the Lahore bus period of India-Pakistan relations. Second, how he deals with the TTP, US drone attacks and the counter-terror policy of the Pakistani Army would determine how he deals with the terror from Pakistani soil aimed at India, which has invariably derailed the dialogue with this country.

His interviews to Indian television channels make it appear that friendship with India is his primary goal. But he has bigger issues, like rebalancing his relations with the US, which traditionally distrusts him due to his cosiness with the Pakistani radicals, or regaining the Army’s trust. His initial remarks about the Army needing to respect the Constitution and on transparent selection of Army Chiefs would be making the brass in Rawalpindi think. They would remember that his two-thirds majority in 1998 had emboldened him to first sack the then Army Chief, J. Karamat, and then tangle disastrously with another, Pervez Musharraf, who, with tables turned, is now his captive. Whether the Army treats his Kargil enquiry proposal benignly or as an affront remains to be seen.

Traditionally, it is said that “three As” — Allah, Army and America — determine Pakistan’s fate. In fact, the triangle consists of the Army, Islamists of different shades and democratic forces. Beginning with Ayub Khan, the Army wooed the right wing to marginalise political parties and maintain military rule. President Zia-ul Haq, an Islamist, internally reshaped existing parties and encouraged leaders comfortable with a Sharia-compliant Pakistan and externally created conditions for the rise of the Taliban, whose offshoots today threaten Pakistan. The Bhuttos, too, used Islam to burnish their popularity. In 1987, during Zia-ul Haq’s call on Indian President Zail Singh, the latter after bantering with Zia about peace, said to Mr Sharif, then chief minister of Punjab, “If general sahib is not interested in peace, why don’t we talk to you, as you control half of Pakistan?” Mr Sharif’s growth was in that Zia-envisioned Pakistan.

He now needs to resolve some contradictions that he could delve in during electioneering. The US is Pakistan’s biggest benefactor. The Pakistani economy is near collapse and urgently needs the $9 billion that the International Monetary Fund is dangling. Mr Sharif told an Indian channel that he would try to manage by cutting government expenditure by 30 per cent. More than a third of the budget goes to the Army. Can he touch it? If he starts curtailing spending on the already scanty social schemes then his popularity would plummet in months. He needs structural reform, including a widened tax base, which will impact his feudal friends. The disinvestment that he plans can be the beginning of more scandals.

To campaign on banishing US drones and peace with the TTP was easy. Imran Khan simplistically argued, reminding one of Salman Rushdie dubbing him “Im the Dim”, that the minute the US departs harmony will return to the entire AfPak region.

How Mr Sharif adjusts to the reality that past deals with the TTP or their clones only emboldened them, i.e. the Swat valley deal, will indicate whether he is serious about not allowing Pakistani soil to be used for terror against India. He encounters two external realities: the desire to resume normalisation of relations with India and the need to find a middle ground between his poll rhetoric and the US’ imperatives in its Afghan endgame. In the case of India he has to rebalance his relations with his Army and wean them away from their favourite jihadis. In case of the US, he has to align the interests of his Army, the Afghan Taliban and the US while negotiating a ceasefire with the TTP.
Considering the impossibility of these readjustments in the short run, India could reciprocate the warmth, keep doors open but not yet break into a bhangra. Await the compromises the Sharifs negotiate within and without and, perhaps, let the next government in India do serious engagement. Unlike Rocky III, Nawaz III may end as a farce or a tragedy.

Younger bro Shahbaz Sharif may not really share the same ardor for good relations with India. Remember TFT reporting Shahbaz was not happy over the bonhomie and back shifting of Cashmere isuue during the bus trip.

He is also reportedly fluent in Arabic and a daughter in the Sharif family is married to the Saudis. No wonder they went out of their way to protect the Sharifs and shunted them to exile unlike what was done to ZAB in 1977.

Fellow was also famous for saying Taliban should not attack pakjab and attack other provinces instead. Now that nawaz is PM they will probably say Taliban should not attack Pakistan and should attack neighboring countries instead.

The marriage relationship of the Shariff family with the Al Saud family of Saudi Arabia is rumoured and not confirmed. I myself suspect that the Saudi Royal family will not permit their bloodline to be contaminated with "Miskeen" genetics :wink: .

UK: 7 men convicted of sex crimes against girls

Another day , another lot of pakis found being the low life creeps they are
Seven men were convicted in London on Tuesday for sexually abusing underage girls, including one who was just 11, by plying them with alcohol and drugs before forcing them to commit sex acts.
Prosecutors said seven of the men on trial were of Pakistani descent and two had family roots in North Africa. Other recent high profile cases, including one in Rochdale that involved a similar sex ring, have also involved Pakistani men convicted of abusing young white girls, in some cases sparking ethnic tensions and protests.
pakistaniyat in full bloom
One victim said she was "branded" with a hairpin after it was heated up to show that she was the property of one of the abusers.

Another victim said the men told her she would be shot if she did not have sex with them. She was 14 at the time.

One teenager who said she was groomed at the age of 11 and turned into a sex slave described being followed into a bathroom and raped by one of the men convicted Tuesday. Her rapist later introduced her to other men and told her to perform sex acts on them. At the age of 12, she told the court, she was forced to undergo an illegal abortion on a living room floor.

ISLAMABAD:

The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), the outlawed umbrella of militant groups blamed for most violence in the country, said late Wednesday that they do not rule out a ‘ceasefire’ if the new government ‘shows seriousness’ to their dialogue offer.

The ultraconservative group had also offered ‘conditional dialogue’ to the previous ruling coalition in February only to withdraw it after they did not receive a ‘positive’ response.

Now, TTP spokesman Ehsanullah Ehsan says if the incoming government takes the Taliban talks offer seriously, his group will also come up with a positive response.

“If they [the new government] takes our dialogue offer seriously and makes some progress, then we could also stop attacks,” Ehsan told The Express Tribune by the phone from undisclosed location.

The incoming prime minister, Nawaz Sharif, said this week that the Taliban’s offer for dialogue would be taken seriously. “We have seen Nawaz Sharif’s reported remarks and respect his statement about our dialogue offer,” Ehsan said.

BELCHERTOWN (CBS) – Shortly after midnight Tuesday, seven people were caught trespassing at the Quabbin Reservoir.

State Police say the five men and two women are from Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Singapore, and “cited their education and career interests” for being in the area. The men told police they were chemical engineers and recent college graduates.
http://www.telegram.com/article/2013051 ... 003/NEWS03
The water from the Quabbin Reservoir provided to 2.5 million residents is safe, officials from the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority said Wednesday, one day after seven people with ties to the Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Singapore were caught trespassing shortly after midnight on the watershed property.
The alleged trespassers, five men and two women, were found by Trooper Adam LeBlanc. At about 12:30 a.m. he noticed two vehicles parked off Route 9 near the middle gate in Ware, which leads to an area near the spillway and the Winsor Dam.
While the news of the alleged trespassers concerned some area residents, most wondered what they might have been doing and why.

Because men allegedly told police they were educated chemical engineers, residents wondered why they wouldn't have noticed the large signs indicating the area is closed at night.

“It makes you think about the water,” Heather LaMothe of Ware said as she and her family walked at the reservoir Wednesday.

^^ True. But they can succeed in smaller reservoirs (water tanks) of individual cities.

They will also keep working on it. First time, they fail but they won't give up just like WTC.

The scary model of distributed, individual groups who are brainwashed enough will keep trying irrespective of however times they fail.

http://www.boston.com/news/source/2013/ ... zhokh.html

CBS News correspondent John Miller reported this morning that according to sources, Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev wrote a note while inside the Watertown boat he used to hide from police.

In the note, according to Miller, Tsarnaev wrote that the bombings were retribution against the US for actions against Muslims in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Miller also reports that Tsarnaev's note called the Boston bombing victims "collateral damage," and referred to his deceased brother Tamerlan as a martyr.

ISLAMABAD : The Ministry of Finance has no inkling where the last government spent Rs 83.3 billion during the nine-month tenure of former prime minister Raja Pervez Ashraf, highlighting flaws in the reporting system for expenditures which make it easy to use national funds for illicit purposes. According to sources, the office of the Auditor General of Pakistan is using the ‘missing’ money to send officials on trips abroad.

Tarek Fatah in Toronto Sun:
“They will use Nawaz Sharif to distract India into promoting trade and culture ties and win praise from all quarters, including the U.S., but this will be theatre.” He added that “while the world is distracted by Sharif’s peace overtures, the Pakistan military establishment will be working in the west of the country, using its Islamist-installed provincial government in KP and the puppet government in Balochistan to implement the agenda of restoring the Taliban in Kabul once the U.S. departs in 2014.”
The takeover of the provinces that border Afghanistan came about after the Pakistan military did nothing as Taliban death squads terrorized and killed members of the liberal secular ANP party that had been governing Khyber Pukhtunkhwa and was a sworn enemy of the jihadis. As a result of the terror campaign, the ANP lost all its seats in parliament save one. The jihadi terrorists targeted the ANP, resulting in 700 of its members being killed since 2008. From these ashes has emerged the pro-Taliban Imran Khan whose party will now govern the province with help from the ultra-right Islamists of the Jamaat-e-Islami.

The humiliation of the secular nationalists was not limited to KP. Their fate was also duplicated in Balochistan. The military first invited the former Chief Minister of Balochistan, Akhtar Mengal, to come back from exile and lead his party, the BNP into the elections, only to later crush them in defeat.

Now Mushy is in House-Jail facing murder and treason charges while NS rules TSP, So if Mushy is eventually exiled to Londonistan, would it be life coming a full circle for NS and Mush ?
TSP is a tragedy first time, second time and fart after that every time.
