Bharat Rakshak

Much of the physical and psychological intimidation of journalists and judicial officials is precipitated by the perception that they are either working with the United States against Pakistan’s interests or exposing the ISI-jihadi networks. The experience of Buriro and Mirza was no exception. On the prosecutors’ return to Karachi, the agencies began hounding them. “In the Karachi bar association we were interrogated by the ISI officers many times: ‘Why did we go to America for training? What type of training? Why did we give a briefing on the Rangers case in America? Why were you invited? All others were uniformed persons from other countries,’” Buriro said.

Buriro and Mirza were trouble for the army and the intelligence. They understood the relationship between the jihadis and the agencies, and they knew how uninterested the establishment was in prosecuting terrorists.

“The agencies are not interested in convictions of extremist guys,” Buriro said.

Every week, the prosecutors would get a visit from ISI and military intelligence officers to discuss the terrorism cases, to find out how many were being tried, how many pending. “And always they’d say, ‘Why are you going after good Muslims?’ or ‘What is the case against [Lashkar-e-Janghvi leader] Akram Lahori? He is working for Islam. Why are you working against him?’ We replied that the government gave us the case. They should withdraw it.”

Pakistan army needs to get rid of its slogan of ‘Jihad fi Sabeel Allah’. No other Muslim country’s army has that slogan because the army’s allegiance should not be to a religion but to the country and its tax paying population. Army’s first and foremost duty is the defence of its people – both at the borders and within the country – and not the safety and security of the militant groups that are used to create ruckus in neighbouring countries.

Neela thanks. I used to say Islam kills the right brain as all creativity and thinking is dead. Now have medical proof of virtual stroke of the brain from Abrahamic religions.

NEW DELHI: The India-Pakistan border continues to simmer despite efforts from both sides to maintain peace.
According to latest reports from the field, Pakistani troops on Saturday violated the ceasefire twice along the Indo-Pak border in Jammu and Kathua districts. BSF troops retaliated, sources said.

The two sides had witnessed heightened ceasefire violations through most of August, and for 15 days in October. At least 11 people were killed and over 100 injured in the ceasefire violations. Over 32,000 people were also displaced during that phase.

TAXILA: Scores of stucco sculptures dating back to the 4th and 5th centuries A.D. are crumbling at the Mohra Moradu Stupa and Monastery due to the lack of maintenance.

The PPP co-chairman said that short-sighted leaders and army generals mixed up the ‘Jihad in Kashmir’ with the Afghan insurgency which not only undermined the Kashmir struggle but also allowed the Jihadis to sneak into our cities and towns.

In his little over 15-minute long video released before Christmas, Rashid accuses Pakistan Army officers, the "Brahmins" of the force, of treating their juniors as "Shudras".

There are few clues as to the identity of the last Pakistani Jew to be buried in Karachi. A heart-shaped piece of marble set into a slab of rough concrete in the city’s Jewish cemetery in February 1983 has none of the detail or Hebrew script of the more elaborate tombs built a century earlier, when Jews were a self-confident minority in a country where they are now often demonised.

Chand Arif, the cemetery’s self-appointed caretaker, says the rundown graveyard, which has not been visited by relatives of the dead for decades, is at risk of encroachment.

In the 1950s there were regular burials and visitors. But their numbers dwindled as Jews moved to India after the partition of the subcontinent in 1947 into India and Pakistan. Later, many more went to Israel.

Some members of Karachi’s Jewish community had been brought to the city by the Empire, but most were members of the Bene Israel community, which claims to trace its roots in south Asia back almost 2,000 years. It is thought there may still be a handful of Jews living in the city, although many have married into non-Jewish families or pass as Parsees or Christians.

Despite the hostility to Jews in Pakistan, an engineer called Fishel Benkhald is happy to wear his religious affiliation on his sleeve.

Mr. Benkhald, the son of a Muslim father and Iranian Jewish mother, says he grew up in Karachi respecting both religions and now considers himself Jewish, even though his national ID card says otherwise. In an anti-Semitic society, he is Pakistan’s sole self-declared Jew, and is campaigning to preserve the cemetery. His efforts at raising awareness have so far been unsuccessful. {This guy is foolish to stay in Pakistan and even reveal his identity}

Arif Hasan, a celebrated Karachi architect who sits on the provincial government’s cultural heritage committee, has proposed the graveyard be declared a protected site. “Naturally there is an anti-Israel feeling which is very strong,” he said. “But this is our heritage, irrespective of whether we are Jewish, Muslim or Christian, and we have to protect it.” —

Excellent video. Thanks for posting.

Like that link that someone posted - the LeJ and LeT are not opposed by teh army because the army will break up if they do that. The army is afrais that Pakjab wil burn

I am certain the Pakis will try something against India to prove their Islamicness - and they need to be given a severe beating by the timids. As long as the Pakis keep accepting American billions and fight the TTP they are going to be busy.

Pakistan has taken one more step towards failure.
