But now, unlike in the 1990s, there is some law enforcement fear of Islamism in Londonistan. Maybe this march will be an opportunity for them to photograph and ID likely extremists. Maybe. (I am ever optimistic.)Anujan wrote:Apparently the Tahirul Qadri fella has asked his supporters to join the "Million man march" for liberation of Cashmere in UK. The march is on Oct 26.
The marches by itself are just nonsensical theater. But what is concerning to me is that when terrorism was at its height in the valley, there were such regular marches and fundraising (for moral, political and diplomatic support of phreedom phyters).
This is victory of unjahiliya over kufr traditions that are called regressive in Islam and pukes are defenders of Islam.saip wrote:The extent people go to leave porkistan!

Mukti Bahini was East Pakistanis fighting in East Pakistan, NOT Indians. LTTE was Sri Lankan Tamils fighting in Sri Lanka, NOT Indians. Indians did not train Indians to go fight insurgencies in other countries. Afghan mujahiddeen were Afghans fighting in Afghanistan, with Arab fellow travelers. Iran sheltered millions of Afghan refugees too and had Afghan client militias too. But even Iran did not allow Iranians to get radicalized by its involvement in the Afghan war.Cold war blah blah we helped US and Saudi Arabia fight Soviets in Afghanistan blah blah instead of appreciating us we are being condemned and on top of that we are now suffering terrorism as the price for fighting US's war blah blah what about India creating Mukti Bahini and LTTE whine whine whine whine
More simple, Mani Sankar Aiyar earns his bread parroting what he states, all his progency are in US and as a old man he does not care a damn what happens to India.sadhana wrote:Anyway, here's a guess about what motivates Mani Shankar Aiyar's positions and blatherings.
Just as many Indians think that involving Pak civilians in trade ties which benefit them materially will make them supporters of peace with India, IMO, Mani Shankar Aiyar is representative of an oil and gas business lobby that thinks involving Pak MILITARY in (informal) trade ties which benefit them materially will make them supporters of peace with India.
I will guess Mani Shankar Aiyar thinks Pak military's jihadism extends only upto its pocket and that its anti-Indianism can be overcome by mercenary means, ie by bribing them.
Prima facie that might sound logical but then so many billions of US aid and arms and concessions and political patronage didn't work to promote US interests in Pakistan so why would India bribing Pak military with a pipeline or two or whatever work better. Jihad is the means of extraction of material benefit for the Pakistan Army, why would they give it up?
Agree. But he apparently does care about the interests of whatever oil and gas business backs him, so he takes on a prominent role.Aditya_V wrote:

Prakash Karat of CPI (M) made a huge song and dance on the basis of a communication by then US Ambassador to India, David Mulford, that was leaked by Wikileaks, that Mani Shanker Aiyar was not pro-US and hence replaced by Murli Deora as Petroleum Minister.Aditya_V wrote:More simple, Mani Sankar Aiyar earns his bread parroting what he states, all his progency are in US and as a old man he does not care a damn what happens to India.

MSA is an anti-national communist, an anglicized Brahmin turncoat who works against Hindu and Indian interests. When he cleared IFS, he was not given a posting for two years because of objections from IB who identified him as a hardcore communist. During his student days in Cambridge, he organized a money collection drive to help Chinese soldiers in 1962 war. I don't know if that makes him better than Pankaj Mishra or A Roy. The guy is actually a deranged loon, full of snobbery for unwashed heathens of India. This is from wikipedia:CRamS wrote:However much he annoys us, I will give him this much. He is no RNI like many others in Cong are, and he certainly is no leftist anti-India, anti-Hindu loony like Pankaj Mishra, Adhothi etc.
While on a tour of the Andamans as the Cabinet Minister in the latter part of 2004, Aiyar was quoted as saying at the Cellular Jail there that there was no difference between the radical right-wing revolutionary Veer Savarkar, a famous inmate of the prison, and Mohammed Ali Jinnah, the founder of Pakistan, as they shared a 'divisive' philosophy. He also ordered that a plaque with a poem commemorating Savarkar be replaced with a plaque with quotes from Mahatma Gandhi. Savarkar had been tried and acquitted for conspiring in Gandhi's assassination. Reports of the incident paralysed Parliament and led to agitations by the Shiv Sena in Maharashtra. Aiyar's remarks created confusion as well in the ruling party; the official spokesman, Anand Sharma, noted that the Congress Party did not consider Savarkar either a freedom fighter or a patriot. A few days later, the Prime Minister dissociated himself and the cabinet from that view.[5]
Aiyar was also involved in a public brawl with politician Amar Singh.[6] According to Singh, Aiyar insulted Singh's then party leader Mulayam Singh Yadav and remarked: "Oh that bloody Mulayam -- he looks just like me. It could be because my father visited Uttar Pradesh at some point. Why don't you check with Mulayam's mother." [7]
In September 2011, Aiyar visited his alma mater—St. Stephen's College—to speak about 'Governance and Corruption: Is Panchayati Raj A Solution?'. However, he began to mock the Hansraj College and its former student Ajay Maken. He also belittled the Kirori Mal College and the BA (Programme) Degree, a course in the University of Delhi. This led to an agitation by the students of Hansraj College. When the agitated students approached him, he mocked them even further. When later questioned by the media, Aiyar refused to apologise and rather ridiculed the institutions even further. Baffled by his remarks, Stephen's College and its students went on to apologise to Hansraj College and extended a hand of friendship.[8]
Bal Thackeray, quoting from journalist Dhiren Bhagat's book the Contemporary Conservative, accuses that "when Indians were donating money and jewellery - even sweaters - to sustain India's fight against the Chinese in 1962, Mani Shankar Aiyar, as secretary of the Cambridge unit of Communist party, was busy collecting funds for Chinese soldiers". He further alleges that the Aiyar family's powerful political connections expunged his records as a threat to national security and cleared his way into the Indian Foreign Service.[9] In the Rajya Sabha in August 2013, Samajwadi Party MP Naresh Agarwal accused Aiyar of being a Pakistani spy, when he refused to discuss the recent murder of 5 Indian soldiers by the Pakistani Army and instead suggested discussing rising gas prices. Aiyar reacted sharply and tried to assault Agarwal.[10]
Another example for his arrogance is when he mocked Narendra Modi's Prime Ministerial ambitions and said a place will be identified for the Gujarat Chief Minister to distribute tea here. [11] He said that "I promise you in 21st Century Narendra Modi will never become the Prime Minister of the country. ...But if he wants to distribute tea here, we will find a place for him," Aiyar said at the venue of the AICC meeting in New Delhi. This statement is said to have created anger against the Congress and sympathy towards Narendra Modi, which further helped BJP's election campaign.
As sports minister, he effectively scuttled India's bid for Asian Games in 2007.It was widely felt that Delhi's lack of enthusiasm to host the event was the primary reason for its loss. Then Union Sports Minister of India, Mani Shankar Aiyar, spoke strongly against Delhi hosting the games and argued that it was better if the money allocated by India's government for organizing the sporting event was spent on building facilities for the poor. [12]The Indian Olympic Association (IOA) president revealed that India's Sports Minister remarks against hosting the Games was the main reason for New Delhi's loss.[13]
Sena turns the heat on Aiyar
MUMBAI: Journalist Dhiren Bhagat's book, The Contemporary Conservative, has come as a big help to Shiv Sena in its ongoing spat with petroleum minister Mani Shankar Aiyar over the latter's remarks about Vinayak Damodar Savarkar.
Aiyar had recently ordered the removal of a poem penned by Savarkar which was inscribed on the 'swatantrya jyot' at the Cellular Jail at Andamans where the fiery freedom-fighter spent 11 years.
Sena chief Bal Thackeray has liberally drawn from Bhagat's book which contains references to Aiyar's Cambridge days in 1960s.
"When Indians were donating money and jewellery - even sweaters - to sustain India's fight against the Chinese in 1962, Mani Shankar Aiyar, as secretary of the Cambridge unit of Communist party, was busy collecting funds for Chinese soldiers," Thackeray said, quoting Bhagat, on Saturday.
"Aiyar was then perceived as threat to national security and the police had a slew of files on him. However, the Aiyar family put to use its strong political connections and the then President of India intervened to clear the decks for Mani's entry into the IFS," Thackeray said.
"In any other country a person with such credentials would have been bundled off to jail. But in India, Mani Shankar Aiyar could dare to enter the IFS," he said.
According to a Sena MP, the Bhagat tome was supplied to MPs belonging to his party by Congressmen who are "upset" with Aiyar.
"Many Congress MPs want Aiyar out of office as he is seen as haughty and pompous. Satish Sharma is waiting to grab Aiyar's portfolio," said the Sena MP.
Nawaz seems to have stuck a deal with the Sheriff and seems to have survived this round.Pakistan Awami Tehreek chief Dr Tahirul Qadri has said that he will travel abroad to revive his party’s overseas offices which have been dysfunctional since he resigned as member of the National Assembly in 2004.
“So I will visit Canada or other countries, whether for 100 times, to restore the party’s overseas offices and complete other important assignments, such as lectures and events, etc., and will return to the country time to time to address rallies and public meetings,” he explained.![]()
Pakistan will not allow India to resolve the Kashmir issue in its own way and plans to send envoys to different countries to brief them about "Indian aggression" along the LoC, the Prime Minister's Adviser on Foreign Affairs and National Security Sartaj Aziz has said.
"India wants to resolve the Kashmir dispute in its own way and Pakistan will not allow this Indian attempt to succeed," he told reporters yesterday.
Aziz said that Pakistan's desire for peace should not be misunderstood as it weakness.
He said that Pakistan would continue to raise the Kashmir issue at the international forums.
He alleged that India was violating the Line of Control peace and Pakistan just responding.
"The government will send emissaries and delegations to different countries to inform them about the Indian aggression on Line of Control and human rights violations in occupied Kashmir by the Indian forces," he added.
He said UN resolutions on Kashmir are still relevant and cannot be replaced by bilateral agreements.
"We are making efforts at an international level to make the UN Military Observers Mission more active," he said.
Pakistan has already written to the UN Secretary General about the recent deadly clashes and UN observers have also visited the villages hit by Indian firing.
