They want to distribute ISI money to screw us and they want to advertise the solution given by some Indian for the money and use it for publicity. WOW! The COMMIES, ISI and ISLAMISTS are brilliant.

Based on this arrest, can we send a cease and desist order to them to prevent the contest? Any lawyers on this forum? Can we draft a letter so that we can send this to KAC?

This isn't the first time Dan Burton's name has propped up while investigating Paki lobbyists. Apparently, in 1997 he demanded 5000$ from a Paki lobbyist who couldn't come up with the paltry sum! ( Goes to show the state of Pakis prior to Unkil Sam's generous bakshish post 9/11). Curiously, Dan Burton is married to muslim woman named Dr.Samia Tawil ( a paki perhaps? ).

Meanwhile Pagals of Pakiland are doing what they do best: bad mouth India. Madman Majid (Nizami), uberRAPE and head of Nazaria-i-Pakistan which includes the Nutty Nation, addressing kids from his jihadi Nazariati Summer School:

TheNation Editor-in-Chief and Nazaria-i-Pakistan Trust Chairman Majid Nizami said here on Monday that India was conspiring to destabilise Karachi and “we should be ready to secure our country from such an aggression”.

Commenting on the deteriorating law and order situation in Karachi, Majid Nizami said that India was behind the unrest in the business hub of Pakistan and that the Israel-made weapons being used in Karachi were reaching in the biggest city of Pakistan through India. The foreign interference was not only creating unrest in Karachi, but also in Balochistan and Fata, he added

Interesting that RAPE-sponsored schools teach exactly what is taught in the Jamaat madrassahs.

Burton also has fathered a son (outside wedlock) with a former state dept employee.

A_Gupta · Post by **A_Gupta** » 20 Jul 2011 04:53

Somewhat off-topic but maybe useful for people to know:

http://www.fara.gov/fara-faq.html#3
Excerpts:

The purpose of FARA is to insure that the U.S. Government and the people of the United States are informed of the source of information (propaganda) and the identity of persons attempting to influence U.S. public opinion, policy, and laws.

Are foreign governments the only foreign principals?

No. The term also includes foreign political parties, a person or organization outside the United States, except U.S. citizens, and any entity organized under the laws of a foreign country or having its principal place of business in a foreign country.

Does everyone who serves a foreign principal have to register?

No, there are a number of exemptions. For example, diplomats and officials of foreign governments, and their staffs, are exempt if properly recognized by the U.S. State Department. Persons whose activities are of a purely commercial nature or solely of a religious, scholastic, academic, scientific or fine arts nature are exempt. Certain soliciting or collecting of funds to be used for medical aid, or for food and clothing to relieve human suffering are also exempt. Lawyers engaged in legal representation of foreign principals in the courts or similar type proceedings, so long as the attorney does not try to influence policy at the behest of his client, are exempt. Any agent who is engaged in lobbying activities and is registered under the Lobbying Disclosure Act is exempt from registration under FARA if the representation is not on behalf of a foreign government or foreign political party.

How does the Act work?

1. The Act requires every agent of a foreign principal, not otherwise exempt, to register with the Department of Justice and file forms outlining its agreements with, income from, and expenditures on behalf of the foreign principal. These forms are public records and must be supplemented every six months.

2. The Act also requires that informational materials (formerly propaganda) be labeled with a conspicuous statement that the information is disseminated by the agents on behalf of the foreign principal. The agent must provide copies of such materials to the Attorney General.

3. Any agent testifying before a committee of Congress must furnish the committee with a copy of his most recent registration statement.

4. The agent must keep records of all his activities and permit the Attorney General to inspect them.

^^^^
As I recall, several years ago, some Indian-Americans talked to someone in the Indian embassy about Fai and his activities, and reported that the diplomat was not very bothered by it. This therefore would not be seen as a very big favor by India. IMO, it is mostly a squeeze on Pakistan.

When the US/west start turning the screws onK TSP terrorist families, the Paki facade state will beg for mercy. I hope the SD by that time finalizes the strategy to split that state.

I would not believe the story even if they were using DU. There is a convincing medical scientific explanation.

In the first place there has to be an effective "screening system" in which the existing number of brain tumors that occur per year in the area is already known. Only when that is in place can one start saying that more people are getting tumors. It will still take many years before any conclusions can be reached. Even with the best surveillance systems on the planet the countries of western Europe are still not sure whether cellphones do or do not cause more brain tumors. In the Af-Pak region? Not a chance. it is a cooked up story.

* Fai was in the leadership of JKJEI - J&K Jamaat-e-Islami.
* JKJEI was sponsored by Pakistan/ISI and its objective was to establish Nizam-e-Mustafa {Islamic State} and subsequent merger with Pakistan.
* JKJEI was banned between 1975-1977, before contesting and securing a few seats in the state assembly.
* In 1995, ISI convened a meeting, at Mecca; Fai attended this meeting as the Executive Director of Kashmir American Council.

* In 1993, Abdul Ghani Lone joined with Fai in their anti-India exertions.
* Lone was the founder of JKPC.
* JKPC - J & K People's conference was co-founded in 1975 by Lone.
* Lone lobbied some in US Congress and the then Administration for 'Kashmir's' secession from India.

Hawala transactions
* Circa 2003, ISI spent Rs200 crore to fuel terrorism in J&K.
* ISI directly contributed 25% of this amount.
* 40% of the amount came from other Islamic groups throughout the World.
* 1% from local sources - extortion rackets.
* Fai along with Ayub Thakur (UK) were implicated in the hawla transactions connected with terrorists groups.
* Pakistan/ISI was one of JKPC sponsors.

* In 1993, AsiaWatch, a Washington based organization, condemned Pakistan for aiding and abetting terrorism in J&K. It also accused Indian military of human rights violations.
* In 1994, Bill Clinton, as the President, wrote a 3-para letter to Fai that started a controversy and India objected to it strongly.
* On June 1 2004, Fai was one of the people to testify, in US House of Representatives, to the Sub-Committee of Human Rights & Wellness hearing on the human rights violation in J&K, Punjab etc.

I think the US has traditionally not taken a "severe view" of Paki activities in the US that were anti-India as long as they were not anti-US and as long as US interests were served by the continuation of such activities. Britain did exactly that - and to many countries - not just India. Allowing such activities is a political-diplomatic tool.

In my view, the only "corner" that the US may have turned is a realization that an India obsession prevents Pakistan from doing what needs to be done to cooperate with the US. All these years the US believed that the India obsession was an acceptable quid pro quo in order to get Pakistan to cooperate. Now the US seems to be trying to veer Pakistan away from the India obsession - not by using direct piskological lectures (as Pakis claim) but by morally, diplomatically and financially" reducing Pakistan's ability to obsess with India. Until the US stops supplying arms to Pakistan that can be used against India one can't actually say that the US has turned the corner. IMO.

The presence of a functioning Fai in the US was an irritant - but not an overwhelming obstacle to India. But it did give the Pakis the impression that they could run riot in the US in an anti-India campaign and get away without repaying the US by doing the US's job.

While this is somewhat pathetic schadenfreude, I cannot help smirking about the games Unkil plays when sufficiently provoked. I'm sure that TSPA apologists will prevail sooner or later but Kayani and co should learn that needling an elephant for giggles works for a while until the elephant lifts you and drops you in the mudpit.

They have been after this Fai character for years. This shows that Unkil can expose and embarass TSPA/ISI at many levels almost at will. All they need is a little motivation.

Could it be possible that Pasha could not deliver what he was asked for? I ask because if that's the case it could be that TSPA is not 100 per cent in control anymore. And it seems unlikely that he'd grow a pair suddenly after guboing for so long.

Sec Clinton gave a list, of which Kashmiri might have been hallaled (not 400% sure still). the other Four remain. the deadline was till July end, Probably Pasha wanted more time, actionable intelligence etc...This is what he got in return for coming to DC empty handed.

In 2001, the US told the ISI we are going to hit Kunduz, get your men out and dust off your deniability excuses.

In 2011 the US has again warned Pasha about the groups they are going to expose and asked him to get the denials ready.

Maybe that is all that has occurred? No real change?

Amit, when I said 'accommodative', I did not mean that the ISI became brave to shut the talks on the face of the CIA. That has not generally been the ISI tactic in dealing with the US. Lt. Gen. Pasha was helpless. I posted the following here more than a week back.

Narad, we should remember that the PA is composed of just two types of soldiers/officers: those who want to use Islam to defeat India and those who see defeat of India is a first step towards Caliphate, i.e Ghazwa-e-Hind. The former type are thinking of Strategic Depth in Afghanistan while the latter type are trying to achieve RSD (Reverse Strategic Depth) in Pakistan. This is the conflict. While top Generals of the PA are in SD-mindset, I can bet my SDRE testimonials that significant sections of the latter are in RSD-mindset. Virtually all Islamist parties and terrorist outfits subscribe to this ideology. The SD officers are therefore afraid of doing anything that may end up in unpleasant repercussions for themselves. Besides, the Punjabi Taliban and the TTP are against these officers and pretending to be as religious as them suddenly is not going to win their support. The PA is therefore marked. This is why PA may be forced to send terrorists into India again, in order to divert attention, create some unity and borrow more time from AQAM.

Now, I believe that Kayani & Pasha are in the SD-mindset and are unable to defy the diktats of the RSD-group. To me, this shows the ascendancy of Taliban-pasand Islamists within the PA.

On another note, the terror attack did happen at Mumbai. But, it is a dry run. They were testing the new technology. The PA is yet to carry out a more devastating attack on us. As the PA/ISI get fried in the US (now, the Ghulam Nabi Fai incident too), the SD & RSD groups coalesce and would have no other option but to attack us.
