few messages back there is some paki praising the legendary Indian nuclear scientist Dr. Homi Bhaha.

From that CIA torture report
Also mostly the report is of the form "Abdul Muj was caught in Pakistan, waterboarded and a rod shoved up his musharraf". Pakis in twitter are all outraged about the torture in the US, while nary a peep on who sold all these people out for a few greenbacks.Majid Khan's lunch tray consisting of hummus, pasta and sauce, nuts and raisins were pureed and rectally infused.

Am wondering how much of this would be blamed on Musharaff and rest of them would get away. Since all extremism is blamed conveniently only on Zia(Look at those PIA ads before Zia ), photochor alone is responsible nookular black market, bandicoot might get tacked on with all these muj for money scheme.

was no one to receive him. He could not even give a lecture in the Quaid-i-Azam University, Islamabad, since there were threats of violence from students belonging to Islami Jamiat-i-Talaba. This was not an isolated event and other institutes also found it difficult to invite him for the same reason.
India (and many other countries) has offered him a prestigious job. Indira Gandhi (then PM) invited him to India and bestowed a great gesture of respect by not only serving him tea with her own hands, but also sitting by his feet.
One may find roads named after him, or such honors in Switzerland to China but he is disowned by Pakis who like to worship Kasab types..

And the worthless sh*t-for-brains asswipes in the US state dept. continue to fund a country that uses US money to attack the USA. Christine Fair's titter messages say as much -- "the US state dept. behaves as if they have green passports". The US state dept. has been infiltrated by the ISI quite seriously obviously, as the recent Robin Raphel episode suggests.
Some seemingly decent people who are not even practising muslims seem to lay their reputation on the line to protect islam and islamists -- this is done by claiming "no lack of knowledge of islam" and stating "islam is being twisted out of context by the islamists" at the same time (the same line taken by the duplicitous snake-oil-selling turd Reza Aslan). Clearly a disingenuous point of view, which makes you wonder if you can ever get islam out of you once it is in your system. Some serious brainwashing methods in islam that other death cults can learn from.

Starting from the initial "we are your family" act down to the "you will leave your family when you are dead" act. Islam has all the makings of such a cult going by the behavior of its ardent followers.

LONDON: The JF-17 thunder fighter aircraft, which has been the main attraction of visitors and potential buyers alike at the recently-concluded four-day defense exhibition, IDEAS 20114, has attracted many buyers indulging Nigeria, as the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) is close to finalising an order for the purchase of one or two squadrons of the JF-17 Thunder.
The fighter aircraft has been co-produced by Pakistan and China.
IHS Jane’s Defence Weekly quoted Pakistan officials that the NAF finalised its recommendation for the purchase of 25-40 JF-17s after NAF chief air marshal Adesola Nunayon Amosu visited Pakistan in October. Amosu’s engagements in Pakistan included a visit to the Pakistan Aeronautical Complex (PAC) at Kamra, north of Islamabad, where the JF-17 is manufactured.
Re: Sunni Terrorist Fragments of Unstable Pakistan - 10 Oct
So apparently the US state dept.'s reason for continually funding Pakistan is that "they are too dangerous to not be given any funding" (According to CFair's tweets) -- I think the theory that used to make the rounds on BRF that the pakis are doing a nuke blackmail of the US is probably close to the truth. "But the US is a great superpower", you might retort, and that's the time to pull out this pamphet with about a dozen bridges for sale on a discount.

Neo-fundamentalists believe that the Prophet said the war to establish Islamic rule in India would be waged by an army rising from the fabled deserts of Khorasan before the day of judgement. “The Ghazwa-e-Hind is inevitable,” announced Hafiz Muhammad Saeed, head of the Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD), parent organisation of the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT). “Kashmir will be freed, 1971 will be avenged and the Gujarat victims will get justice, god willing.”

TSP is not at fault at all, its a conspiracy against TSP by India and its lobby.
Simbal Khan says some of Delhi’s antipathy may have rubbed off on the many US diplomats of Indian ancestry she has encountered in Washington.
“There is a very hardcore anti-Pakistan lobby in the State Department, including many very smart people who are as American as anyone else but they do have these leanings.”
I am just wondering, there are a few toothless Indian Americans in state dept like Nisha Biswal (who is anyway Indian in the eyes of some lawmakers), but for equal equal purposes, does the state dept and other foreign policy arms of the state dept not have some Paki Americans as well? Paki Americans sure speak shudh English, and they are as TFTA as the maacho "All American" diplomats in the state dept. I know think tanks have a lot of Pakis who are suave and well trained in ISI speak. For e.g., Trivializing TSP terror by casually saying Kargil happened, Mumbai happened etc, as though they are some natural disasters, and India should move on.

These cults prey up people with a specifical mental makeup and use them for political and financial power. So, Today you are a nobody, you ain't got no friends, and the others they all hate you, and tomorrow, as soon as you are a proud cult member, you have a readymade family and you are given a pre-packaged reason as to why your existence is crucial in fulfilling the divine master plan of some dude who has appropriated credit for creating the universe. Small price to mortgage your brain for all the new found perception of security and wellbeing.
But that is not why there is much higher chance of people with a poor self image/worth joining cults (as studies have shown), which provide them with the extra kick in the head to start nursing new delusions of the being the chosen one of the creator of universe and his sidekick prophet, the thetans (scientology), the unbeatable divinity of Reverend Moon, jeebus, or (insert your own favourite all-power imaginary friend here).Why look for exotic reasons?

For example, the religions have targeted disgruntled people or people who among whom anger against society can be provoked.
Islam in America has targeted blacks in prisons.
In India Brahmins were declared human rights abusers and people of "lower castes" were encouraged to convert to the egalitarian Christian religion.
The more you can pick up and isolate to highlight societal groups who can be dubbed "less than equal" the more the "religions' prey on these groups to win converts. In India it was unsecular to even talk about these things till a decade ago.
Re: Sunni Terrorist Fragments of Unstable Pakistan - 10 Oct
Certainly, the recent correction to Ms C.Fair's myopic vision of Pakistan has not come about because of her enlightenment of the crimes and perfidies of Pakistan or her determination to shun her earlier avatar for a more truthful new one etc. She is vengeful due to something that personally caused her some pain. What it was may not concern us, but we welcome while it lasts. We don't need to show an exuberance in welcoming her prodigality because of two reasons;we know it may be short-lived and we also do not want her to turn-around and accuse us of dishonesty when we criticise her when she changes her opinion which may be sooner than later. After all, she has been careful only in criticising Pakistan, not supporting Indian stance in any issue.
Re: Sunni Terrorist Fragments of Unstable Pakistan - 10 Oct
SSJi, she does support India's legal stance on J&K, and points out the convenient and fraudulent TSP position on UN resolutions which they obsessively repeat.
Matter of fact, apart from her, and may be Selig Harrison (and I am not sure of Harold Gould), the overwhelming US position is that India is wrong and TSP is right on J&K (and of course the customary human rights BS accusing India of torturing the "innocent" KMs who deman secession at gun point).
US wants an independent J&K or at least an independent valley, or short of that valley in TSP's hands, make no mistake about that. Sticking to his usual "both sides are guilty" crap, Uneven I recall gave an interview on rediff soon after Kargil where he categorically stated that US does not accept India's position on Kashmir. Another b@stard Shaffer (don't know his first name) said that not implementing UN resolutions lays on India's door. The list goes on. And of course Alistair Lamb is some scum bag that TSP quotes like a programmed robot.
I think Fair is way too contrarian and not in US interests to be taken seriously by the big boys. Plus, as you noted, she seems to have some personal gripe with TSP. Most likely, a bunch of ISI Pakijabi honchos had a go at her and then dumped her on the way side (recall, post 9/11, another Indian American chic also suffered the same fate and in fact has a child). The difference is that the big boys also know TSP perfidy, but as professional diplomats, they keep it under wraps and work hard to confine TSP's perfidy to India alone as that serves US interests. Thats diplomacy 101.
