The Daily PakistanPolitics Apr 16-30, 2012

  • Apr30-2012--ten killed in Bara armed clash
  • Apr30-2012--violence in lyari further intensified with another four killed...thousands have left lyari as teh situation deteriorates and many demonstrated against teh PPP attacks on lyari...burning PPP flags...
  • Apr30-2012--body of ICRC official found in quetta who was kidnapped in january...taleban say ICRC refused to pay ransom...
  • Apr30-2012--another drone attack kills three in miranshah demonstarting teh PPP's utter failure in providing security against american attacks...
  • Apr30-2012---The PPP blaming teh PMLn for teh SC decision seems quite inappropriate as does its decision to attempt to retry nawaz sharif for various cases...many believe that teh PMLn is better in court than teh PPP...The PPP is itself to blame for not supporting teh NRO and thus restarting all the cases under it...the zardari cases also precede the NRO and are not covered by his immunity...Rehman Malik was called a swindler by Chaudhry Nisar for attempting to restart teh corruption war saying he had a stinking reputation...also saying that the PPP's jiyalas had suffered under this PPP rule...! ...The PPP reputation is in tatters and the decision on disqualifying may also have tobe made by the SC...
  • Apr29-2012--many are left wondering at a Gilani statement that terrorism can be controlled if we doit...or terrorism can be controlled by insulting teh supreme court...many are suggesting that a sindhi trying to escape to karachi has been arrested for teh lahore railway station blast..others are suggesting asif zardari's labour wing as responsible for the lahore railway station blast..it is a followup of al qaeda logic that terrorism will be restricted in england and teh USA by their attacks...?other rumours suggest that teh ISI terrorism controller in lahore is a top officials wife...gilani is apparently suggesting counter terrorism bomb blasts...which many believe is a policy followed by the militaries covert units...
  • Apr29-2012--Gilani tries to involve the PMLn in a fight on his conviction for contempt as rehman malik tries to stir up the already decided nawaz sharif loan cases...while nawaz sharif setup 19 industrial units with loans which now are equivalent to $66 million asif zardari took $60 million in commissions and bribes and hid them in swiss accounts...due to teh PPP's nasty attitude many suggest that teh SC include orders on disqualification in teh detailed judgement...
  • Apr29-2012--The PPP is adopting a contemptuous attitude towards teh SC decision convicting Gilani of contempt...apparently the SC registrar has already notified the speaker and EC of teh decision and urged them to get on with it...The PPP which is full of troublemakers has continued its war of words against the decision and PPP leaders have been ridiculing teh judiciary threatening to shame them before the national assembly...the idiotic PPP leaders donot realize that teh court has given a straight minimum verdict and there will be nothing more when the written decision is released...if teh PPP appeals teh courts could revize the sentence as well as give clear orders on Gilanis disqulaification...
  • Apr29-2012--another nine killed in lyari ongoing police violence...
  • Apr28-2012--PPP sends armed police sharpshooters into lyari killing eight people...
  • Apr28-2012--Gilani continued his contemptuous attitude to teh supreme court and tried to pressurize teh speaker into not writing a letter for his disqualification...that could cause teh speaker tobe charged for contempt too...many feel that after teh conviction disqualification is automatic as teh constitution does not mention teh speaker and teh EC can move on its own or on the request of any citizen...others say the PPP has tried to prove that it is being aggrieved but has not been able to show support on the street...The PMLn and possibly teh PTI who are better street performers are also threatening to start an agitation...many feel that teh PPP has failed again as Gilani personally did not have any mandate and has only been busy in creating a family dynasty matching teh zardaris while nawaz sharif has tried to match them daughter for daughter too...The dawn says that gilani can no longer be refferred to as teh primeminister...!!
  • Apr27-2012--The ineffective foreign affairs trio of ISI chief, foreign minister and army chief unable to get USA to stop drone attacks says Hina Rabbani
  • Apr27-2012--In a contest that is being billed as an upset in multan usman bhatti beat the PMLn candidate by a few hundred votes...many say the PTI voters voted for teh PPP candidate while others say that teh PMLn candidate was rejected by the rank and file as he represented teh elite...
  • Apr27-2012--The suspicions of the ephedrine smuggling scam all were based on teh crookish musa gilani who has already had a liver transplant(caused by drug addictions) at state expense says he does not know rashid juma the DG health who says he phoned him to allocate an ephedrine quota...recently elected from multan he says he does not anyone in the health deptt...or even two industrialists from multan or his alleged frontman...!such innocence...
  • Apr27-2012--Saudi arabia agreed to take fourteen members of teh al qaeda clan after teh the intervention by teh queen of england that they would not participate in subversive activities...a saudi plane took them away...
  • Apr27-2012--the PPP has suffered a dent toits democratic credentials as Gilani did not resign immediately after being convicted for contempt...Under article 61g he apparently stands disqualified for ridiculing teh courts...The appeals to SC judgements are usually rejected and Gilani would only be possibly succesful in appeal if serious behaviour modification took place such as writing a letter to teh swiss courts or presenting a copy of Asif Zardaris swiss bank accounts...since Zardari apparently had no real means of income it is generally assumed that they are the proceeds of corrupt practices...another suggestion that Gilani already stands disqualified as his wife has had a loan written off...!This could mean teh end of gilani's political career..!The ways to disqualification are thru the EC or a petition to teh SC...many suggest that naveed qamar, amin fahim, rehman malik or even Naik could possibly stand in as primeinister till the next elections..many suggest a federalist as teh next primeminister who can take the country together rather than teh seat hugging regionally divisive Gilani...!
  • Apr27-2012--In what can be termed as a meaningless exercize in nurakushti teh SC bench backed out and declared yusuf raza gilani in contempt but backed out from a major sentence...Gilani was sentenced till the rising of teh bench...This shows that teh SC too is not serious in dealing with the NRO offences and has backed off from dealing the PPP's failed prime minister a knockout blow...however Gilani had said that any sentence would end his primeministership which consists of at best visiting multan and flying to islamabad...his personal popularity is at best zero given his inability to devize any popular policies and trying to divide teh punjab along ethnic lines...It is now left to teh PPP to decide convicted Gilanis future and whether teh letter should be written or not...There seem no serious consequences for Gilani at present and teh judges may have been fooled by a behind teh scenes political agreement with the PPP...what teh SC will do in future is now clear as they are unable to force the implementation of a simple decision...The court also has to decide whether the letter writing is now not required or the immunity clause in teh constitution does not effect its order in any way...This is teh first conviction of a primeminister since teh zulfikar ali bhutto death sentence and many see Gilanis antics as foolish in suggesting that he was beholden to Asif Ali Zardari for his job as primeminister...The Gilanis have become involved in corruption, terrorism, drugs smuggling and even loan writeoffs...
  • Apr26-2012--Peshawar HC asks government to suspend CAA chief and says defence minister too should resign...CAA has been avoiding implementing its responsibility in ensuring quality and alert pilots and not grounding aircraft even when they have obvious faults...in both recent disasters airblue had a phsychotic overage senior pilot and a junior pilot who also avoided his responsibilities...teh Bhoja Air pilot thought he was flying a fighter aircraft...and apparently tried a steep dive from which the plane did not recover...
  • Apr25-2012--bomb blast at Lahore Railways Station kills four...many are blaming teh PPP and the seraikis..!!
  • Apr25-2012--Attorney general claims immunity even for teh primeminister but that was only available under teh original 1973 constitution...he also refered to the letter written by a former AG to teh swiss ending teh swiss cases...he even claimed that teh primeminister was not directed to write the swiss letter despite direct orders by teh SC...many feel that the SC should change its orders and ask teh swiss government just to inform it of all asif zardari accounts and than if teh amounts in them are any where near teh rumours it should ask teh government to initiate efforts to recover teh money irrespective of teh guilt of teh Zardari clan...??
  • Apr25-2012--In a continuum of everyone working against each other teh SHC suspends teh EC order disqualifying teh women beater waheeda shah...provincial governments usually have some leverage over high courts...shumaila rana a PMLn punjab mpa also returned to the provincial assembly after being reelected after a credit card scam...
  • Apr25-2012--two pharma chiefs arrested in musa gilani ephedrine scam
  • Apr25-2012--four more killed in karachi ethnic killings
  • Apr24-2012--PPP attempting to change seraiki governor of lahore who is ineffective on a punjab wide basis...asif zardari should go for a popular figure who has a punjab wide appeal rather than bringing another political sycophant or orphan...like wattoo...aitezaz ahsan though politically immature might be a better option rather than the gujerati kaira...PPP policies also have a general anti punjab trend/feel as usual
  • Apr24-2012--The Gilanis who are now being regarded as an even more corrupt family than teh zardaris are firing officials at random to protect themselves..there is widespread knowledge of musa gilanis associating with the drug mafia..Gilani who is seen by many in teh PPP as a zardari stooge and who has no effective policy and no input into any country wide problem which are dealt by zardari or rehman malik if they pertain to karachi and not dealt at all if they are in other problem areas of the country
  • Apr23-2012--Dawn suggests that teh countries economy cannot sustain returning its loans and that teh PPP is again asking for an IMF dole
  • Apr23-2012--In what many may find surprising many suggest tat teh SC give an overall judgement to correct political and ISI behaviour in teh country...Many suggest that Asif Zardari be fined $60 million, Yusuf Raza Guilani be fined Rs222 million or confiscation of his lahore property,Gilani's sons be jailed for six months each...Musharaf be fined $20 million or confiscation of property and the mqm be banned for one election for its murders in karachi...the politicians who took money from teh Mehran scam be asked to clean the streets in their area for one hour a week for six months...all former and present generals who own six to eight houses be only allowed to keep two while the rest may be turned into children serai's...There is no way that beating around teh bush by teh Sc is going to solve teh problem...Others also suggest that asghar khan be hanged upside down at teh kohala bridge for not being able to protect east pakistan and making murder threats...many suggest that asif zardari took money for having his wife eliminated...another suggestion that may solve the crisis is to jail all the ISI chiefs for the last 45 years for two years each...for not having monitored the countries situation to stop it deteriorating to this degree...
  • Apr22-2012--The countries situation is in dire straights as even the frightened primeminister refused to visit teh crash site a few kilometers from his office...Dawn also says that Gilani has launched a campaign aginst teh bahawalpur province and offered them the capital of seraikistan or even a new name...Javed Hashmi seems unable to understand that the constitution basically opposes new provinces and pakistan is just not like india...smaller provinces might be more controllable but will be more prone to sectarianism and ethnic terrorism...in teh ephedrine scam three people zafar abbas lak, khushnood lashari and yusuf raza gilani apparently tried to hushup the scandal...and as they say there is no smoke without a fire...
  • Apr22-2012--two hazara's shot dead in quetta
  • Apr21-2012--As the zardari-gilani lawyer aitezaz ahsan asked for setting aside the zardari cases till the end of his presidency...many suggest that the court should declare zardari as incompetent and force him to standdown and face teh cases which he is hellbent on avoiding...many suggest that teh PPP regards itself as guilty of corruption and drug smuggling and is frightened of writing teh letter which many regard as inconsequential in teh situation..Since Gilani has willingly not written teh letter teh SC will either have to disregard teh apparent contempt or give the primeminister a sentence which too can be suspended until he steps down as primeminister...many regard Gilani and his children as frightened of ending their lives in jail for their crooked ways...
  • Apr21-2012--In karachi ethnic violence mostly directed at pukhtuns caused another 13 deaths...
  • Apr21-2012--Nawaz Sharif the kargil invader says he did not suggest that pakistan withdraw unilaterally from siachen but that a dimilitarisation be offered to india which is reluctant to pull out its troops as it signifies a substantial gain of territory...
  • Apr21-2012--Bhoja Air was grounded ten years ago...Gilani apparently forced the CAA to allow them to fly again...??...their first flight to islamabad in a 24 year old 737 which caught fire and plummeted to the ground from around 2900 feet and exploded while landing near teh islamabad airport...killing all 127 on board...this governments second controversial private jet air crash at islamabad...teh first an airblue plane apparently shot down while joyriding over islamabad with an indian pilot..?The CAA chief seems irresponsible as over twenty year old planes are regarded as risky and the plane could have been standing around for 10 years...The plane engines apparently caught fire and probably lost control during teh descent...The CAA chief suggested that bhoja air had not beeen allowed to fly for ten years because they owed CAA money...?
  • Apr20-2012--nine die in fight between tribal elder and militants in north waziristan
  • Apr20-2012--the indians who have refused to solve any problem since teh 2003 ceasefire now want us to believe that siachen funds would be spent on teh people if disarmament takes place...one doubts that given teh huge indian defence establishment and increasing irresponsible spending on pakistan and china specific missile development...even paksitan has no problem with funds for siachen...fooling pakistan and its people is a popular indian tactic..pakistan still sticks to its 1970's era simla agreement even though they did withdraw twice from kargil...simla basically set kashmir aside until the indians were able or willing to negotiate...!!!
  • Apr20-2012--The national assembly told teh americans to stop drone strikes while the PPP led government again wants to cooperate on them...drone attacks are not conducted anywhere even against teh afghan taleban and are directly attacks on pakistan territory...
  • Apr20-2012--The Gilanis are seemingly even more crooked than the 90's era small time pickpocket Zardaris...as the ANF(Anti Narcotic Force) files cases against musa gilani and teh entire ministry of health for expropriating ephedrine a controlled substance that can be used to make drugs like ecstacy...Khushnood Lashari teh primeministers secretary and former secretary health tried to hushup teh investigation while Gilani transferred teh erring ANF officials...Lashari however pointed teh finger at the DG Health Rashid Juma as teh man responsible for the drug smuggling... The weak,controversial and spineless Zardaris and Gilanis have appointed literally their entire families to political positions which was not generally practised by the populist PPP in teh old days of Benazir and Zulfikar ali bhutto...and literally teh entire Gilani clan are literally picking up corruption payments and even the decaying Gilani wife goes of on political trips...
  • Apr19-2012--apparent MQM terrorists again struck in karachi attacking roadside taverns and daily wage earners killing ten...
  • Apr19-2012--PPP acknowledges that raja ashraf was definitely corrupt as he is made minister of information technology while kaira becomes information minister..teh failing ashiq awan becomes minister for federal regulation and services which should theoretically be a beaurocrat controlling ministry...The PPP's failure in punjab many say caused teh induction of 15 ministers from teh punjab..including teh lackluster punjab PPP president safdar warriach who as minister of state for interior will try to oust teh sharifs from power..Instead of removing teh failed interior minister the PPP only transferred teh minister of state for interior to the ministry of water and power?..Nazar Gondal funnily becomes minister for CDA...with maula baksh Chandio becoming minister for political affairs whatever that may be...
  • Apr19-2012--The siachen tragedy also showed the weakening resolve to fight indian expansionism with nawaz sharif calling for a unilateral disarmament in siachen while the more serious General Kayani called for renewed talks on siachen...the indians have refused to withdraw and called for a defacto colonising of teh siachen by acknowledging their position as an actual position while pakistan calls for a return to the LOC position
  • Apr19-2012--After 11 days of teh siachen tragedy asif ali zardari reaches Ghayari.....many say asif ali zardari more interested in junckets to foreign countries rather than dealing with teh countries many crisis...whether he prayed for teh souls of teh dead soldiers is unknown...even teh national assembly did not say a prayer for the siachen dead...many say the army ignored rumblings from teh surrounding mountains which eventually ended in an avalanche...
  • Apr18-2012--Nawaz Sharif says he ants Siachen demilitarized...india invaded siachen and setup military positions and pakistan than started a snow mountain brigade and fought back to a stalemate in an area where even moving around is difficult...
  • Apr18-2012--Gilani refuses to give ANF official records of teh primeministerhouse...ANF officials investigating Gilanis involvement in smuggling of drugs...
  • Apr18-2012--two mosques sealed in GB ...government raises electricity tariff by Rs1.67..as lashkar raisani resigns from PPP and senate...
  • Apr17-2012--An ANF official seeks records of visitors to teh PM house...The Gilanis who are now being regarded as one of teh most corrupt families to live in the PM house have already defeated teh Zardaris and sharifs...
  • Apr17-2012--four ministers of state sworn in as PPP fortunes in teh punjab take a tumble...

  • Apr17-2012--Shabaz Sharif says looters wont be allowed a Seraiki bank as it is a provincial matter otherwise seraiki wealth will also end up in swiss banks like that of sindh
  • Apr16-2012--Asif zardari continuing his divide and rule policies called for a bank of seraikistan but in his meanness forgot to call for a bank of karachi, hazara, potohar and central punjab...and probably a bank of Fata and bahawalpur...!...PPP is attempting to play the pukhtun origin seraiki gilanis against teh east punjhabi sharifs of central punjab...who want to play the abbasies of bahawalpur against them...many suggest that to be meaningful Asif zardari should also call for teh creation of karachi and hazara and probably bahawalpur provinces at least...
  • Apr16-2012--with five of the present provinces embroiled in ethnic and sectarian Asif Zardari a sindhi wants another seraiki province in punjab while the PMLn wants a bahawalpur province..mqm also wants a hazara province...The whole issue stems from the sindhis refusal to allow a new mohajir suba...one feels that teh relatively peaceful punjab might also disintengrate into violence...if teh government goes with a forced seraiki province...according to PPP's mantra every area has been denied its rights in teh country barring islamabad and lahore and many feel that the PPP has deep a ethnic bias against punjab and pakistan and wanted it tobe be reduced in size so that the sindhi's dreams of dominance are realized...Asif Zardari however does not want to give teh same rights to the mohajirs of sindh who have been up in arms for teh last twenty years...while there has been no movement for a seraiki province and not even a demonstration...many feel that teh PPP feels punjab slipping from its grasp and wants to control it with its base ethnic animosities...provinces have not been very successful and most provinces cannot get along with each other...PPP also opposes everything done by teh punjab regime but never opposes anything done by other provinces...
  • Apr16-2012--over a hundred militants attack Bannu jail and free over 384 prisoners including many militants...some escaped prisoners rearrested
  • Apr15-2012--PPP in a fix on reallocating after inducting senior members as ministers again...PMLq also wants its three ministries

How it all started...coups and politics and islam and democracy...
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...!
