It is unbelievable the way Shitistani's are behaving on execution of their erstwhile supporters and anti-independence collaborators in Bangladesh.
In this whole Psy-Ops program the participants are feigning ignorance on why the guy was executed.
Its is funny to see their pathetic attempts to act as an injured party.
They are saying in executing this person his human rights were violated!!!!
They say that Bangladesh has vilolated Amnesty laws and principles.
This is all being done to appease India.
This one is a Gem -How can a person be executed just because he supported Pakistan and opposed Bangladesh? In other words what they are saying is because this person was in favor of Pakistan, the Bangladesh govt should overlook the killings of Bengalis and Hindus and all charges of treason.

The Anchor of this Program has a major chip on his shoulder for anything related to India.I enjoy all the khujli he has at the mere mention of India.

KARCHI: Between two trucks on an abandoned, garbage-strewn railway, teenagers openly shoot up drugs as children pass by on their way to school -- a daily scene in Karachi, where heroin is undermining Pakistan´s efforts to combat the spread of HIV.Pakistan has an estimated one million heroin users, half of whom use needles. There are fears that the country´s addiction is set to deepen, with neighbouring Afghanistan´s opium production hitting a record of 5,500 tonnes this year -- even before the withdrawal of NATO forces in 2014.
former male prostitute and heroin addict, NGO worker Mohammad Imran knows all too well the ravages of the drug. "Because I belonged to this environment not so long ago, I can feel their feelings, their problems and everything else very clearly," he said. "Tarek is not alone. In Pakistan -- known as "The Land of the Pure" -- almost 30 percent of those who inject heroin are HIV positive, one of the highest rates in the world and up from 11 percent in 2005."It´s booming. You know it is increasing every day because there are a number of social factors that are propelling people toward this menace. And despite all the efforts claimed by government, it is easily available here."´
"Karachi has in recent years seen a new crossover between the Afghan heroin destined for Europe and Asia and imported South American cocaine, fuelling speculation of collaborations between Latin American cartels and Pakistani drug lords or the Taliban, who are partly funded by the traffic. "There are no boundaries, there is no nation, there is no religion, it is about money. They have joined hands to get more money," said Akbar Khan Hoti, chief of the drug unit at the Ministry of Interior Cocaine is definitely fashionable, especially among young people seeking to escape," said Hussain, a young executive who returned to live in Pakistan after studying overseas. "There is nothing else to do.

LAHORE: A 72-year-old British doctor is in prison in Pakistan for “posing as a Muslim”, charges that reveal an escalating ideological fight that often spills over into violence.

ISLAMABAD: Text books in Pakistani schools foster prejudice and intolerance of Hindus and other religious minorities, while most teachers view non-Muslims as ''enemies of Islam,'' according to a study by a US government commission released on Wednesday.

The findings indicate how deeply ingrained hard-line Islam is in Pakistan and help explain why militancy is often supported, tolerated or excused in the country.

''Teaching discrimination increases the likelihood that violent religious extremism in Pakistan will continue to grow, weakening religious freedom, national and regional stability, and global security,'' said Leonard Leo, the chairman of the US Commission on International Religious Freedom.

Chief of CID’s investigation unit, Mazhar Mashwani claimed that Muhammad Adnan alias Abu Hamza had been operating for banned Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and was placed at number 36 in the Red Book – the list of wanted suspects

Unknown gunmen on a motorbike opened fire on Allama Nasir Abbas’s vehicle at Canal Road near FC College, critically injuring him. Abbas’s driver, Munawar Hussain, took him to the Shaikh Zaid Hospital, where doctors pronounced him dead.

The attack on the leader triggered widespread protests across the city. The protesters did not let the police to shift the body to mortuary for autopsy and had been saying they they would took the body in front of governor house to record their protest.

LAHORE: A 72-year-old British doctor is in prison in Pakistan for “posing as a Muslim”, charges that reveal an escalating ideological fight that often spills over into violence.Some clerics promise that killing Ahmadis earns a place in heaven. Leaflets list their home addresses.Ahmad was arrested in Pakistan's eastern city of Lahore last month when two men posing as patients questioned him about his faith and used mobile phones to secretly record him reading a verse from the Holy Quran.
One of his accusers, religious teacher Muhammad Ihsan, told Reuters that Ahmad had preached to them illegally.A bank clerk was arrested for wearing a ring with a Quranic verse and an entire family was charged for writing a Muslim greeting on a wedding invitation.“We would not have a problem with them if they did not use the name of Islam and the symbols of Islam,” said Tahir Ashrafi, head of the powerful Ulema Council of clerics.“We are against the killing of any innocent... Such attacks are not acceptable or allowed, but if they break the law, we have a right to go to the police,” he said.[ /b]
“His children watched him die”Rafiatta, who asked her last name not be used, moved to Rabwa after gunmen killed her husband in 2010 in front of their young children.
Ahmadi publications are banned in Bangladesh, where a festival site was torched earlier this year.
In Britain, Ahmadi buildings have been vandalised and leaflets have appeared forbidding them to enter shops and urging Muslims to kill them, British media have reported.But Pakistan is the epicentre of persecution.Last April, a 25-year-old hospital clerk and his father were at home in Lahore reading an Ahmadi newspaper when a crowd broke down their door, the clerk said.They beat the two and looted their home. Then a gunman forced the pair into a car without license plates, the clerk said. He asked not to be named for fear of retribution.Their kidnappers went free but the two were eventually charged with impersonating Muslims in special anti-terrorist courts designed to combat the Taliban.The clerk was released after a month, but his father, who has not yet been convicted, has been in prison for nine months.The family has since fled their home and the man now occupying it is refusing to pay them for it.“Nobody has the courage to give him bail or dismiss the case,” the clerk said.
And that's what Masood Ahmad's family fears. He has had three bail hearings. One was picketed by scores chanting anti-Ahmadi slogans and his frightened lawyer skipped the next two. British authorities are giving him consular assistance.His son, one of seven children in Britain and Australia, said the family suspected someone was trying to steal his father's dispensary.“I feel so angry because I can't do anything from here,”said 39-year-old Abbas Ahmad, a cab driver in Glasgow. “It's awful to know that people were plotting against someone you love.”

Even before the First World War, I had realised that India was destined to attain freedom, and no power on earth would be able to deny it. I was also clear in my mind about the role of Muslims. I ardently wished that Muslims would learn to walk together with their countrymen and not give an opportunity to history to say that, when Indians were fighting for their independence, Muslims were looking on as spectators. “Let nobody say that, instead of fighting the waves, they were standing on the banks and showing mirth on the drowning of boats carrying the freedom fighters.”

WORK has started on preparing the site for two large nuclear power plants in Karachi.

It is not too late to ask a few basic questions so that people, especially those living in Karachi, know what they may be letting themselves in for.

the new reactors are being purchased from China

the reactors will be based on a design known as the ACP-1000 that is still under development by this Chinese nuclear power company. In effect, Pakis are buying reactors for the Karachi site that so far exist only on paper and in computer programs — there is no operating reactor in China based on this design.

This means so far there is not even a complete design

no one knows how safe they will be or how well they will work

20 million people of Karachi are being used as subjects in a giant nuclear safety experiment.

All of Karachi falls within 40km of the reactor site

there is no information on what emergency plans

The United States has asked India to reconsider its stand and accept Pakistan's suggestion to include civilian diplomats in the proposed Indo-Pak DGMOs' dialogue mechanism, which is yet to take off despite the understanding reached between Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and his Pakistan counterpart Nawaz Sharif in New York in September.

India, however, is learnt to have turned down the suggestion, which was made during Foreign Secretary Sujatha Singh's just concluded visit to Washington, saying Line of Control was a military problem and must be solved between the two armies. Singh, sources said, conveyed that India did not see a "diplomatic role in what was essentially a military issue".

The US argument was that involving Pakistan Foreign Office representatives would strengthen the hands of the civilian government, allowing it greater say in managing the conversation on an issue that till now remains a preserve of the Pakistani military.

In fact, the original proposal from Pakistan was to have a Foreign Office-led affair, with the the two foreign secretaries leading the mechanism on the two sides. When India expressed reservation over this, Islamabad revised its proposal ahead of the New York meeting, suggesting a DGMO (director general of military operations)-level dialogue, with civilian representatives on both sides.

India, however, did not agree. The logic on the Indian side is that the nature of incidents at the LoC — be it beheading of soldiers, cross-border raids or killings by special battle groups — reflect military competitiveness in an area with negligible civilian population and controlled by armies on both sides.

New Delhi's understanding is that it's for the two armies to work out protocols of peaceful behaviour on the LoC, and that involvement of non-military officials would turn this into a diplomatic issue.

This issue was discussed at some length between the PM and Sharif in New York, with the latter trying to underline the importance of having civilian representation in the suggested mechanism.

While violence along the LoC has subsided with the onset of winter, the proposed meeting between the two DGMOs has still not taken place. India has been waiting for Pakistan to suggest dates, but there has been no such move so far.

Some Diplomatists in Delhi might have protocol and political reasons to frown at a "joint statement' issued by the chief ministers of east and west Punjab in Amritsar on Sunday calling for greater cross-border cooperation between the two provinces.


The current deputy chief minister, Sukhbir Singh Badal, traveled to Lahore last year and outlined an ambitious agenda for cooperation across the Radcliffe Line that divides the two provinces. The joint statement issued after Shahbaz Sharif's return visit reaffirmed the shared interests of the two provinces in "peace, harmony and economic growth".

There is an acute recognition that the two provinces can significantly improve their fortunes by ending the economic separation of the last many decades, forging strong commercial links, expanding connectivity, opening new trade routes, and promoting tourism. At the heart of this is the proposition that the two Punjabs can "leverage each other's potential"............

Much of the agenda outlined by Badal and Sharif, however, can only be implemented by the central governments in Delhi and Islamabad. The two leaders therefore agreed to press their national capitals to facilitate deeper cooperation across the border in Punjab.........

On its part, Delhi has largely been supportive. But signals from Shahbaz Sharif, younger brother of Prime Minister Nawaz, have been some what mixed.

In Amritsar, he was all for economic engagement transcending the Radcliffe Line. In Delhi, where he called on Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, Sharif seemed to suggest that Pakistan couldn't move on economic cooperation unless there is progress on other political issues like Kashmir and water disputes.........

The Pakistan Army, which is alleged to have huge business interests, must acquire a television channel to counter the growing penetration of Indian TV and news channels in the country, a senior army officer has suggested.

The unusual recommendation has been made in one of the strategy papers written for the prestigious 'Green Book' of the Pakistan Army that provides rare insights into its ongoing internal debates, The News daily reported today.

It said "Indian media invasion could not be countered during Kargil episode".


The strategy papers, written by uniformed professionals, are part of a special chapter in the Green Book titled 'Sub-conventional Warfare'.

While slamming the Pakistani media for not countering the penetration of Indian TV and newspapers effectively, Major General Muhammad Azam Asif, who commands an infantry division, has recommended that the Pakistan Army must acquire a television channel as well as a radio station to counter the "Indian propaganda".

Asif has claimed that the Pakistani media lacks credibility among the masses due to which the general public is compelled to tune in to All India Radio, the BBC and Indian satellite channels during a period of crisis or whenever an important event takes place, the media report said.

Citing the 1971 war between India and Pakistan, he has stated that the "primary aim of the Indian media was to defeat the enemy psychologically and disarm them morally".
The strategy paper penned for the Green Book by Asif has stated, "Our adversary (India) has taken big strides in acquiring media power and has been putting it to good use for her benefits."

"With a number of television channels and remarkable advancement in the information technology, India has attained a total electronic media supremacy over Pakistan."
Therefore, he has called for a brainstorming session between the Pakistani media and the Pakistan Army, saying if the nation is not motivated enough to withstand the aggression, it cannot aspire to preserve freedom.

The Green Book is published every two years by the General Headquarters (GHQ) of the Pakistan Army as an internal publication which, as a matter of principle, is kept confidential from the general public.

An army official said, while requesting anonymity, that the Green Book does not necessarily represent the official viewpoint of the institution of the army.

Many serving senior army officers have expressed concerns in their strategy papers that Indian TV and print publications (news or entertainment) are available widely across Pakistan through both legitimate means and piracy, the report said.

And there is a feeling in khaki circles that the growing penetration of the Indian TV channels has demoralised the Pakistani nation to the extent that India is seen as a formidable foe which cannot be defeated in war, it said.

The Green Book has even claimed that the Kargil war of 1999 was lost by Pakistan because of the relentless media barrage praising the bravery of the Indian troops, thus destroying the fighting spirit of the Pakistan Army.

When The Tiger Of Pakistan Was Humbled By Surrender

By HENRY BRADSHER
Washington Star

Calcutta – “I am ‘Tiger’ Niazi –that’s the name I got in World WarII.”

Lt. Gen. Amir Abdullah Khan Niazi, a bullheaded man of 52 years, looked and acted tough in a talk with this correspondent last month in Dacca. He commanded all Pakistani troops in East Pakistan.

“You know off course that I got the M.C.(British military Cross For Valor In Combat) at Kohima” Niazi said. The last Japanese offensive into British India was stopped at Kohima in some of the bitterest fighting of the war more than a quarter of a century ago.

This is the man who had been ordered by the Pakistani President and Army Commander Gen. Agha Mohammed Yahya Khan , to fight to the last man in Dacca. Niazi said he intended to do it.

With Dacca cut off and the Indian Army Shelling it from several sides, Yahya Khan was trying to buy as much time as possible before the Bangla Desh Government could set itself up in the capital.

Yahya Khan was apparently hoping for some sort of diplomatic miracle to keep him from having to admit the loss of East Pakistan.
Or, India wonders, maybe he still hopes the United States or China could intervene.

“I had a division in Lahore until last April – I was a Major General then – and I came over here after March 25,” Niazi said last month. The Pakistan Army crack-down on the local nationalist movement began March 25 with savage repression.

Niazi expressed confidence last month that China would help Pakistan in case of war with India by causing a diversionary threat on India’s northern border.

India then had eight or ten divisions on East Pakistan’s borders, he said. “They’l have to turn two divisions around” to face the Chinese he said.

As for the remainder that India could use against his own forces, which Niazi said comprised four divisions, “I can knock the hell out of them.”

One Pakistani soldier equals five Indians he said.

That was last month.

Now the India Army and local insurgents have cleared most of the region of Pakistani troops. China has not done anything significant.
But Niazi still talked tough.

While East Pakistani Governor, A.M.Malik, and many other civil officials have admitted defeat by seeking Red Cross protection, and the general handling civil affairs tried unsuccessfully to arrange a surrender, Niazi was ready to fight to the death as ordered.

The orders changed and “Tiger” Niazi has surrendered Dacca to the mixed forces of the Indian Army and the Mukti Bahini guerrillas of Bangla Desh.

Expo-2020: Pakistan's voting for Turkey annoys UAE

December 16, 2013 ……………………..

The Turkish envoy, just before the voting, showed the letter of Foreign Ministry of Pakistan for supporting Turkey while the UAE envoy showed the letter written by Makhdoom Amin Fahim.

Pakistan thus faced an embarrassing situation when assurance of its support was available for one slot to two different countries in the contest. Pakistan ultimately voted for Turkey much to the annoyance of the UAE delegate. ……………………….

Pakistan, which plays a key role in Asia, is so famous for treachery that it is said they can get milk from a bull. They have two tongues in one mouth, and two faces on one head so they can speak everybody’s language; they use everybody, deceive everybody. They deceive the Arabs under the guise of Islamic nuclear power, saying that they are defending Islam and Islamic countries. They milk America and Europe in the alliance against terrorism, and they have been deceiving Pakistani and other Muslims around the world in the name of the Kashmiri jihad. But behind the curtain, they have been betraying everyone.

Allah indeed works in mysterious ways.
