  • Oct28-2010--many suggest that the PPP has a quixotic understanding of democracy...when they do it it is democracy when others do it they are attempts to topple them...two mqm ministers recently started looking for bugs in the sindh governor house and they refused to attend a cabinet meeting in lahore as well...differences are one thing and having totally different politics is another...in a democracy coalition partners are not supposed to have differences especially when one is so frightened that they refuse to even come out of their house in london or attend official meetings in lahore...
  • Oct27-2010--two more schools blownup in swat and malakand
  • Oct27-2010--Transparency international says pakistan more corrupt than last year...with literally development at a standstill and trillions being wasted on unknown projects the people worry where the money is going...some say that it is being poured into accounts run by shaukat aziz while others say that payments are being made to the US and IMF who are than giving the money back as loans...!!!There is no visible development or subsidies and the governments economic team keeps lying about what is happening...!!!most of the governments economic functions are invisible to the people and the people are being fobbed off on terrorism...many say whenever teh government feels that it is failing in the public perceptions terrorist events start taking place...?
  • Oct27-2010--In the chakar baz PPP politics the mqm was plainly told that they had either support teh government or move into opposition as the government would not be toppled by teh PMLn and they could easily form a coalition with the PMLq...?Mqm denied such a meeting and suggested that their ministers ran away as Gilani arrived at the meeting venue...The PPP has gone along with pro musharaf governors especially in sindh where the lacklustre Ishratul Ibad has been seen as ineffective and unable to control the mqm...however rumours of a PMLq coalition in the works were scotched as both the PPP and PMLq needed backup as maneouvres started to literally absorb them into opposing coalitions...The PMLq has been supporting like minded candidates in by elections...even where they are being run by the PMLn or PPP..many suggest that as the Pir knocks the mqm for a six the PPP might possibly need a backup coalition partner..The mqm lacks an ability to stay the course in coalitions as they begin to berate their own partners but are unable drop out as they feel that they than might be crushed in a rangers-police vice...The mqm has been unable to giveup violence which has kept karachi aflame and they have repeatedly floored teh PPP with threats...The PPP seems unable to control karachi/mqm and without the mqm things things might move quickly to an end game situation...?

  • Oct26-2010--SC moved in rawalpindi to prevent army destroying another park...the remote ayub park...?
  • Oct26-2010--border with afghan around Kurram sealed by Fc... three killed in roadside blast in orakzai..and in bannu two schools, CD shop and a guest house blownup

  • Oct26-2010--the PPP which has been cooperating with teh PMLq for a long time now reaches an open agreement as baber awan and pervaiz elahi meet to save their futures in punjab...PMLq wary of the musharaf and pir pagaro factors while PMLn's views that the PMlq will bifurcate into PPP and PMLn factions has not come about yet...

  • Oct24-2010--Punjab which has had to face horrific electricity load sheddings now has to manage with industrial gas load sheddings for two and half days as the cold weather approaches...punjab still unable to figure out that it will have to solve its own energy problems and wind turbines wont solve the issue...many suggest that sindhs industrial domination and extortion of sales taxes paid by punjabi consumers has literally destroyed punjabs economy...many suggest that provinces should not charge sales taxes for things sold in other provinces
  • Oct24-2010--helicopter gunships hammer orakzai and kurram killing 23
  • Oct24-2010--Wikileaks says at least 150000 people have been massacred in iraq with 80% being civilians...with americans unable to monitor the conflicts horrific human rights scenarios Wikileaks has been provided with over 400000 american war logs...mentioned are such acts as the unnecessary firing of a humvee into a waiting crowd...
  • Oct24-2010--Yusuf Raza Gilani who is an ineffective nationalist says that musharaf approved drone recconaisance over Fata...however he is unable like musharaf to explain the hundreds of drone missile attacks that have killed unexplained thousands without any retaliation by pakistan...while many say that early drone attacks were not approved by the pakistan government...ISI has since been cooperating openly with intelligence information...Asif Zardari has been one of teh strongest supporters of Drone attacks by suggesting that the US hand over drones so that they can personally order the attacks...The US probably worries that they will start using teh drones over terrorism prone karachi and other non tribal/tribal areas to control pakistans turbulent politics which is driven by terrorism in many areas...pakistan has for most of the last few years faced tribal terrorist retaliations for drone attacks which decimated tribal militant leaderships...
  • Oct24-2010--As the PPP gets hammered politically in the punjab due to its economic and social policies Yusuf Raza Gilani sees no way out but to hold local body elections...in something that maybe illegal he announces 20 million for each PPP punjab legislator who were complaining about the PPP coalition in punjab...at the local level the PPP started out as the strongest group but have been consistently losing support to teh PMLq and PMLn which might gang up with teh strong religious groups to decimate the PPP's chances of even saving face in the local bodies...Shabaz sharif seems intent on a one man rule with his beaurocrats barely able to even show their faces in the districts...many say shabaz sharif frightened by the PMLq votes at the local level as the sindh PPP is frightened by possible sweeps by the mqm...PMLq has surprised many by keeping voter loyalties at the local body levels...
  • Oct23-2010--unable to order drone retaliations gilani falls back on a pathetic statement that musharaf only approved recconaisance drones...both governments have actively allowed drone attacks but maintain their public opposition
  • Oct23-2010--a lt. colonel, five soldiers and five civilians killed in attacks on a convoy in orakzai and a mosque bomb blast in peshawar
  • Oct23-2010--people should be wary of mosquitoes as over 1800 dengue cases have been diagnosed with sixteen deaths in the last two months
  • Oct22-2010--The former american ambassador said that Asif Zardari knew little or nothing about running a country...however Obama said that relations with pakistan had improved under Asif Zardaris incompetent ways..many regard as a success Obama's readiness to visit terrorism prone pakistan...Asif zardari who only wanted to visit london and dubai earlier now wants to jet off to the USA...many suggest that he wants to pass on his secrets about how to defeat the republicans...Mrs. Obama had better beware...!...as the americans new NSA team suggests more friendliness and enhanced military assistance...while teh americans say that the US message is still friendly facially and harsh and almost unacceptable behind teh scenes ...pakistan continues tobe fobbed off with decades old equipment while non confrontational states like teh saudis and israel are even being offered the F-35's...a pakistan military expert said that we still use old style helmets while the americans wont even give us missile capable drones...we have to fight on the ground while teh americans want to bomb us and the militants from teh sky...???
  • Oct22-2010--helicopter gunships kill ten militants in Kurram
  • Oct22-2010--Hina Rabbani Khar says governments inability to control and lead has caused huge amounts of flood relief funds tobe wasted thru NGO's and political groups causing inadequate relief in many areas...an example is teh altaf hussein assertion that they received over 500 million in flood relief donations..Hina says that government now attempting to work on one agenda rather than 26 agendas in the relief effort...various models which include self help, ngo , political,personal efforts,donors running off on their own and even army, navy and airforce individual efforts causes various levels of aid delivery in various areas...while nwfp had to get along with inadequate and torn tents the navy provided top of the line new tents in sindh and the army worked seperately on reconstruction in some punjab areas...creating the elite and non elite systems or sense that are already prevalent in teh country...her assessment was a third of ADP/WB assessments of monetary need for flood relief and reconstruction...
  • Oct22-2010--In what many say is the SC falling in line with the PPP role model ie we cant solve the peoples and countries problems so let us solve our own...in effect the people and country can go to hell but parliament cant usurp our or the judges powers...Inits partial judgement on teh 18th amendment teh SC refused to adjudicate on the limits to the powers of parliament and only said we will try the Judicial commission if we have four senior judges onit and if we can reject the PC recomendations and they had better not say anything bad about a potential judge that the people can hear...?The attempt at blackmailing the judiciary by the zardari regime many say has succeeded...the judges have given parliament and government upto january to work on an interim judges appointment system according to their directives which states that the CJ will not tolerate any interference in these matters...The judges have refused to suggest that the parliament does not have the powers to rewrite teh constitution and can only stay within the limits of teh 1973 constitution...the abhorrence for certain amendments has not been taken into consideration...In effect teh SC has refused to play its due role and accepted the governance of teh zardari clan ...!!!
  • Oct22-2010--In terms of the karachi situation the ANP is now known as the drug mafia while the mqm is being referred to as the extortionist mafia while the taleban are being called terrorists..The strong sectarianist lobbies are also called criminals and terrorists...effects of teh shiite natured PPP/police systems in which ex SSP walas are being literally eliminated in karachi maybe one of the reasons for teh continuing violence ...criminals and arms mafias constitute the third group fighting in the streets...The PPP which is now being referred to in many analysis as the third or second extortionist mafia/land mafia in karachi...many suggest that the mqm is calling asif zardari a component of the land mafia...others suggest that the crying duo of altaf hussein and farook sattar may have succeeded in duping teh PPP by offering a 50-50 split in extortionist payouts and avoiding responsibility for terrorism, killings and murders...!!!...The mqm known to eliminate/terrorize/attack people who do not hand over their monthlies...others suggest that fauzia wahab,sherry rehman and jehangir badr are coming up as the auxiliary terrorist group in karachi behind the anp, mqm, sectarian and street gangs...The sindh home minister has suggested that he is willing to give up his personal monthlies...while teh Mqm's sector incharges are still the most terrifying people in karachi who operate as henchmen/arm twisters /killers for altaf hussein...mostly teh sector incharges try to keep the duped mohajirs in line...methods used though are not listed in the constitution ......zulfikar mirza suggests that other groups from varied parties/groups are coming into play as well...most of the fighting many say is focused on anti mqm areas where the mqm is focussed on kicking out the PPP and ANP from karachi's politics...The lack of representation for most karachiites in electoral politics due to MQM's strong voting blocks many say is the biggest problem...many say the mqm is trying to woo the baloch areas by constant violence and blaming it on the government and other ethnic groups which was their initial policy...!!many suggest that religious and political groups like teh JI, JUP, sunni groups and even the PMLn vote for the mqm in karachi due to their ethnic links...
  • Oct21-2010--Gilani reluctant to order military operations in karachis as another 11 are killed...

how bhuttos got into politics in 1958...

debacle in Dacca

debacle in Dacca
total humiliation...India had steadily destabilized east pakistan over twenty years playing on ethnic, financial, development and military concerns...pakistan was not that rich at that time and the ethnicists played on phsychosis generated by cyclones, floods, tea and jute...the army and west pakistani politicians could not accept a bengali dominated government and a small army contingent could not defend against the mukti bahini and the indians as teh US withdrew its support as usual...When teh going gets tough teh US chickens out as usual...!! The indians have continued teh same themes in karachi, sindh and balochistan but similar tougher responses have not allowed their success although pakistan is now at best a divided land with a pathetic center...!!While it left pakistan numb at the time many now feel the seperation was a proper solution as east pakistanis did not get along with pakistan and they would be better able to solve their problems with india...others still pine away for the lost land of rivers, tea and jute...others suggest that india should handover kashmir in exchange...while some still want to repatriate those considered pakistanis and left stranded in bangladeshi camps...others however heave a sigh of relief as teh problems with the remaining provinces are generally insoluble.....and ethnic regionalism or provincialism mixed with economic and racial nonsense is not a pleasant mode of politics anyway...

allah be praised

allah be praised
allah be praised...i do own forty factories but the people think i am a pauper...i really donot need sarkari umra's....please allah i did not promise imran khan the government when he fell off the platform...cant u make him my slave and not ask for recounts...!
