I see the possibility of some interesting piskology here but I will never be able to prove it. Pakistanis successfully ingratiated themselves to a series of white US presidents because Pakistanis have no hesitation in behaving servile to a rich white man. I am certain they didn't behave right with Obama and it is likely that their attitude to Obama may have been like that of racist Americans.

This is highly possible and i felt this when Rice was Sec of State. Paki behavior with black women too is obnoxious if you see how their FM behaved with Condaleeza Rice. She too remained pissed at Porkistan. You do have a point. Paki use of the 'n' word i notice matches that of highly racist Americans.

I came across this just now. A partial answer to my previous posts and Obama's statement that they will "insist" on Pakis fighting terrorism

Pakistan pledges three dozen CIA visas

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan has pledged to grant more than three dozen visas to CIA officers as part of confidence-building measures following the US raid that killed al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden, officials from both countries said on Wednesday, but the visas have not yet been issued. The visas are part of an agreement to rebuild counterterrorism efforts by forming what Pakistani officials call a joint intelligence team, said the officials, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss intelligence matters. The agreement was reached after talks in Islamabad between Pakistani intelligence chief Lt Gen Ahmed Shuja Pasha and top CIA officials, including CIA director Leon Panetta, the officials said. The visas will help replenish CIA staff on the ground, as some staffers were forced to leave when their visas were not renewed in the aftermath of the controversy over CIA contractor Raymond Davis, who shot two Pakistanis to death in the city of Lahore, the US official said. ap

Interesting point. I had forgotten about Condy. And yes Pakis do use nigga in the American racist sense especially when referring to Indians. Even Paki media often speak of "Africans" bearing particularly low on the evolutionary scale. I think Pakis almost expected Obama to be a buffoon on whom they could show their superiority.

Clinton and Bush did show American power over Pakistan. Clinton played with Nawaz Sharif and Dubya sent Amritraj for GUBO. But both of them stayed within the biradari "honor system" and did not humiliate Pakistan. I am sure Obama has been personally insulted and does not want to play the biradari game with KKK Pakis. Hence the open message to Pakis "Fcuc off"

This is strictly anecdotal, but I've observed the privileged Pakis thinking they were white and be condescending to black Americans. Lots of Urdu jokes about blacks in their presence.

Not everyone who knew Obama in those years is eager to talk. Some explained that they feared inadvertently hurting Obama’s campaign. Among his friends were Siddiqi and two other Pakistanis, all of them from Karachi;
<snip>
Siddiqi said his female friends thought Obama was “a hunk.” “We were always competing,” he said. “You know how it is. You go to a bar and you try hitting on the girls. He had a lot more success. I wouldn’t out-compete him in picking up girls, that’s for sure.” Obama was a tolerant roommate. Siddiqi’s mother, who had never been around a black man, came to visit and she was rude; Obama was nothing but polite. Siddiqi himself could be intemperate – he called Obama an Uncle Tom, but “he was really patient. I’m surprised he suffered me.” Finally, their relationship started to fray. “I was partying all the time. I was disrupting his studies,” Siddiqi said. Obama moved out.

Do expect the Pakis to effervescence with untold number of khujlis because of this quote in this NY Times news report:

Drawing Down, With a Vigilant Eye on Pakistan
http://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/23/world ... ssess.html
What the raid of the Bin Laden compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan, “demonstrated more vividly than ever is that we need a base to strike targets in Pakistan, and the geography is simple: You need to do that from Afghanistan,” said Bruce Reidel, a retired C.I.A. officer who conducted Mr. Obama’s first review of strategy in the region.

In the end i have to give him my wisdom in theth Punjabi style and asked him to pay the bill for wasting my time. Old Khoosat ended up having a dinner party for me same night.

But that has changed drastically in last decade. When I spent years in Malaysia the respect for India was overwhelming, especially our IT and bollywood. One chinese-malaysian taxi driver even gave me a lecture on Mahatma Gandhi ! Couldn't believe my ears. However there are still some elements who see India as inferior, a third world country. But the number is insignificant. I didn't see in Malaysia pakis were as respected as indians.

P.S: when I say "indians" I am referring recent indian expats.

I agree with you 1000%, I had been thinking on this line but did not have a coherent theory. Paki's non-acceptance of Obama coupled with Obama not involving himself with details like Dubbya. Bob Woodward in his books talks about W's weekly videoconference with Karzai, Malikki, US commanders in the region and Centcom commander(almost daily).
Obama left these interactions to his ambassadors and kept Biden and Kerry also as intermediaries. Sec Clinton also played her role and in all these, the Pakis were fuming.
This de-hypenation was perfected in Obama's visit to India minus a trip to Pakiland.

Rao arrives in Islamabad for crucial Indo-Pak talks
This time the talks would take place in three segments, including one specially on Jammu and Kashmir.

Asked why there is a special session on Jammu and Kashmir and not on terrorism which is a prime concern of India, officials downplayed it, saying that it has always been a practice to segment issues during the talks. “It is nothing new,” they said.

Maybe a bit OT but I think this attitude towards people of color seems like a religion thing as I recall an IM also stating something to the effect of calling Africans as "bandars" as stated in their "book". And the Jews as pigs. This was in my early days of interaction and I was startled to say the least.

Fareed Zakaria in the Wash. Post:

The radicalization of Pakistan’s military
There is ... strong evidence of a basic shift in the attitude of the Pakistani military.

Islamist ideology is replacing strategy. For 60 years, Pakistan’s military has focused obsessively on its rivalry with India. Large elements within that military appear to be switching obsessions, and the United States is replacing India as the organizing principle around which Pakistan’s military understands its national security interests. If this happens, not only is the Afghan war lost but Pakistan itself is also lost.

May have been forty fifty years ago, pre 1971.
I believe it was a little before POK II and sometime after that.
They probably said so 40-50 years also but thankfully I was spared that then.

Whoa, if the Pakistani military is obsessed with India, how is that not 'radicalism'? Once again, we see that when India is the potential victim, the Islamic threat is downplayed.

Their ultimate coup is getting a good Annual Confidential Report and getting promoted to the next rank. After all, Claus Von Stauffenberg, a German colonel who had placed a bomb in Hitler's bunker to kill him, was an aristocrat.

Vladimir Lenin, who led the Red Army to victory in the Russian Civil War, before establishing the world's first officially socialist state, and Mao Zedong, who led the Long March to victory in the Chinese Civil War, were both from the more well-off classes which is not the case with the Pakistani officers.

A majority of them comes from humble backgrounds, thus socially conservative and narrow in outlook. Therefore, there is hardly any chance of a "Colonels coup" against Kayani who is already trying hard to restore the wounded pride of his Army by adopting an anti-US stance.

Crap. They might be from humble backgrounds and socially conservative, but the author failed to state that they are also religiously conservative and wrt Islam, religious conservatism means Jihad in the name of Allah and the constant struggle to be purer than the soldier standing in line beside you. Mao and V Lenin and CVS cannot be counted in the same category. Pakis are a like a heap of iron filings attracted to few magnets around them. The biggest magnet these days and for the foreseeable future is Allah. Any person or group that is not attracted or at least doesn't feign attraction to this magnet will be qadrified.
In that sense, there is unlikely to be a civil war in Pakistan to the extent we would like to see. A few skirmishes here and there a la Karachi and things will back to normal. What we will see (and are seeing) is a gradual cancerous decomposition of the Pakistani body. Nothing too violent but rather a slow but sure decomposition. In this case, euthanasia is not an option. Let them suffer !

Interesting part about Fair's analysis is that she downplays almost omite TSP terror against India. So essentially she is telling Hitchens, why don't you shut up, TSP will GUBO before us if only we understand their compulsions.

Emma Duncan wrote in " Breaking the Curfew" that life in military was the sure way for humble background folks to break the Pak 'notables': landlords, pirs and syeds, hold on society. By working their way up the ranks they became higher than the notables and had them waiting on them. In less than ten years the old connectiosn got unravelled. the notable held sway even during the British period. They werethe first people who had the right to call on the District magistrate or the visting British imperial dignitary. They were the folks to whom people went to seek support or arbitration.

It was Zia's coup that broke the strangelhold of the old order and created a new order with fauji foundation etc.

Habshi has the same connotations as nigger and means savage. It is a word I think Osama used to refer to an African Muslim in one of his broadcasts.

I would expect Pakis to imagine that they are almost American by virtue of their obsequious behavior toward white Americans and the resulting kindness they have got. Recall how Dubya went out of his way to declare Pakistan a most favored non NATO ally? That was the most stinking snake oil ever.
Pak understood what the Americans wanted and what is their geo political goals. That is the secret on which they made sure they behaving servile to a rich white man. All this was from 1960s itself.

My point being lost in discussion is that by taking out OBL, the US has exposed the vulnerability of the TSPA to the TSP people and hangers-on (recall the Kashmiri guy whining about TSP couldnt protect the Sheikh!). For US its just a raid. For TSPA its matter of survival. They survive on the myth of power and that was shown to be a sham.

Its not a question of TSP ingratiating themsleves to the more pwoerful. They always have doen that. What is the issue at hand is the TSPA is shown to be vulnerable and not all powerful as it claimed. This is as importnat as the Turkish failure at Vienna that set in motion the slow collapse of Ottomon Turkey.
As the TSPA structure is firm and has deep roots in all aspects of TSP life and society, it will appear to be stable even while it has been cracked if not shattered.

Now which groups understand take advantage of the vaccum or malaise the future of TSP will depend on.

The Saudis refer to darker-skinned people as "slaves"- in everyday speech.

Many centuries of East African slave trade has bred this in them.

Advani issues threat
BJP, upped the ante on the Kashmir issue and warned the government against making any compromise on it. BJP leader LK Advani threatened to launch a mass demonstration if the government went in for a settlement of the Kashmir issue with Pakistan.



Advani warning of protests said, "Sometimes we realise that under pressure from some foreign nation, the Indian government thinks of compromising on Kashmir. In fact in the middle, we got information that informal compromises have already been made.
India talking Kashmir and sidelining 26/11 in the on going talks, Advani warning Govt. about Kashmir compromise.
What's cooking?

Looks to me that TSP has achieved its 26/11 objective: getting India to talk Kashmir, and in return scaling back while talks go on. Hence no pigLet attack. TSP and US have always maintained that India talks Kashmir, they scale back LeT.

Advnai's threat is a joke. Sonia, MMS, and their doggie will shoot them like they would shoot wild animals. Recall what they did to Baba Ramdev and his supporters; or the machismo they showed in stopping BJP's tirnga yatra during republic day (this even as Mirwaiz fakroo is allowed to represent "Indian occupied Kashmi" on an Indian passport. World's larget democracy onlee where mother India can be pissed on and this is celebrated as a virtue by the "secularist" ruling elite). And for that MMS will be hailed by the white boys for a job well done and having the "courage" to take on "Hindu extremists" in the interest of "world peace". Nothing hypothetical about all this. Past events make all this a real possibility.

Habshi has the same connotations as nigger and means savage. It is a word I think Osama used to refer to an African Muslim in one of his broadcasts.

(Indians are not immune to such talk).
Habshi was used by the Marathas to describe the Siddhis (Muslims of Ethopian/Somalii) origin who lived on the West Coast. The word comes from from Al-Habsh, the Arabic term for Abyssinia It was not used in a pejorative sense then, but it has become so now. See Wiki:

Advani is a joke and his threat is more so. And this threat is coming from a guy who basically legitimized the creation of Pukistan by paying homage at the unworthy Jinnah's grave.

Hillary told Senate committee today:
The United States is not prepared to continue the same levels of military aid to Pakistan unless it sees some changes in the relationship, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said on Thursday.

"When it comes to our military aid, we are not prepared to continue providing that at the pace we were providing it unless and until we see some steps taken," Clinton told a Senate committee
No wonder the jarnails are so riled at Amerika Bahadur!
