The Daily PakistanPolitics Aug16-31,2012


  • Aug31-2012--In what looks like one for the raja...one for the CJ..Justice Jawad writes a strange judgement on teh Arsalan review asking the NAB to quit investigating arsalan iftikhar for apparently corruption oriented extortions and hand over investigation to former IG police Suddle...The review judgement based on circumstantial evidence and mostly teh views of arsalan iftikhar suggests that one police man was showing more protocol to the bahria town chief..he is a more important man viz teh judicial son...while teh NAB chief apparently said tobe investigating arsalan inappropriately or with a negative attitude...it seems that teh judges are creating a local swiss case...outside investigators for the judiciaries children...eh..!!...The normal process is to ask teh investigating agency to replace teh investigators...not to replace teh agency en toto...the country usually has three investigating units...CIA police, FIA and NAB for the political crooks..other organisations that are given investigative work are the ISI,IB, MI and armed forces...this is also apparently the first review to have succeeded in teh SC and teh SC might be moving to review some in favor of teh PPP eg. teh SC could review that the primeminister does not have to appear before teh judges......?many suggest that arsalan apparently unable to explain why somebody would spend 14 million annually in three consecutive years to send him and teh CJ's family on holiday...arsalan apparently wanted teh judges to end teh investigation saying that he has answered all teh questions...after the questions comes teh indictment and cases...puttar...or as some say teh NAB chief called him ....da puttar...!
  • Aug29-2012--11 killed in karachi what is increasingly looking like a PPP-mqm-ANP-lyari war..!
  • Aug29-2012--In another controversial move teh PPP appointed presidential spokesman from KP Farhatullah Baber to head teh punjab breakup commission as balochistan chief minister Raisani opposed teh PPP/mohajir/nwfp attempts at creating new provinces and said that would be teh end of teh pakistan resolution as the new provinces are not mentioned init...and it could lead to a new round of anarchy especially in punjab...
  • Aug29-2012--In fighting that is blamed on crossborder militants fierce battles took place in teh salarzai area of bajaur as helicopters pounded hilly positions of teh talkleban...11 militants killed and three soldiers..the TTP says 15 soldiers have been killed in teh fighting

  • Aug28-2012--In what might be a good raja ashraf move that can win the PPP votes the government suggested that there would be no gas load shedding in punjab this winter which shows that teh government deliberately allowed the situation to deteriorate over teh last two years...teh sindhi mohajir asim hussain caused serious gas disturbances in teh punjab...
  • Aug28-2012--In what might be a corollary to teh SC situation manzoor wassan suggested that teh letter would be written as a third option and the caretaker regime would takeover on Feb18...elections would take place on April 4, 2013 barring unforeseen circumstances which are also building up with teh PPP's attempts to bulldoze thru teh punjab breakup commisssion and teh north waziristan operation...kaira however suggested that the wintry november or december could be ideal months for elections as load shedding would again have started in april...
  • Aug28-2012--In what can be said tobe a bigger achievement than lasting five useless years in office teh PPP's raja ashraf told teh SC that he did not want to give teh impression that he was refusing to obey court orders...and than lamely suggested that he was so busy that he could not submit an answer to teh courts queries...The court obviously now better attuned to teh situation allowed him not the usual two weeks but three weeks to prepare an answer and suggested that he appoint someone and teh court would work out a solution...one must say that teh court likes raja ashraf better than the obstructionist/drug smuggling/corruption oriented/loan writeoffing Gilani and openly suggested that he would be a primeminister till teh elections...
  • Aug27-2012--people leaving NW as TTP says military operation to begin on Aug 26 and to last a month...military says no operation as it is a peaceful area

  • Aug27-2012--In a visible weakening of resolve defining the PPP understanding of teh NRO issue raja ashraf headed to the SC to define his view and whether it is changed or not...It shows that teh PPP now agrees that there is an issue and it is not just a matter of teh SC versus the PM(PPP)...The PPP has lost substantial respect as there are no grounds for suggesting that they are being victimised...The PPP could suggest that the issue be left for teh caretaker regime and that they are willing to initiate all other cases even against teh mqm supremo...!!

  • Aug26-2012--whether teh PPP adopts a rational approach to teh NRO implementation or tries to standup to court orders has become a controversy with the PPP opposing teh appearance of raja ashraf before teh court...The AG has been arguing that raja ashraf had nothing todo with decision and teh culprit was actually Gilani who has been threatening to eliminate the new primeminister if he agreed to write teh letter which many regard as a formality...The AG has also argued that teh SC cannot order around teh countries puppet primeministers...
  • Aug26-2012--The first man to walk on teh moon has died..he had also toured pakistan after teh landing
  • Aug26-2012--the fear of the north waziristan operation causes concern in teh area and peopel advized to move to afghanistan...The normally more well behaved fauj is being accused of treating passengers roughly at checkposts...teh situation after teh americans killed mullah dadullah and badruddin haqqani who are both revered leaders of teh taleban and have been incharge of orphanages/operations , bussiness interests and smuggling operations...teh americans struck on both sides of teh border and this might be teh beginning of teh so called north waziristan operation against teh haqqanis...teh US has now started to take teh concerns of teh pakistan military literally and might now be taking orders from teh karzai regime and teh pakistan military..
  • Aug26-2012--there is praise for rimshah masih in religious circles as she did the right thing in burning pages containing religious text that she found in ragheaps...such pages are either burnt or thrown into a well under normal practice

  • Aug20-2012--another drone attack in north waziristan...eight killed
  • Aug20-2012--The PPP's indian nature came thru when they banned mobile functioning in teh countries major cities...apparently to stop terrorism in the red zone areas of islamabad but actually to stop SMS messages to india on teh indians suppression of indian muslims in teh north east...

  • Aug18-2012--two mqm workers shot dead in karachi
  • Aug18-2012--many are worried about teh failure of general kayani to control the fata insurgency over almost four years of continuous warfare and whether it is our fight...most of the expenses are paid by teh USA and kayani has not mounted any real operation...usually just retaliating and scattering taleban fighters and than allowing them to regroup and attack again..he now has teh advice of teh defence secretary a retired lt. general and a veteran of teh peshawar corp..many suggest most of teh talks with teh USA center on how much they will pay for teh pakistani's attacking teh haqqani group...the army has become just a US mercenary corp...?prior to 2007 when Kayani took over there was less terrorism in teh country and the violence in fata was also subdued...many suggest that it is time that kayani is replaced by a younger more astute general that is if there is any...!!
  • Aug18-2012--two dead in karachi blast
  • Aug18-2012--the sudden surge in taleban activity may suggest that the controllers of at least certain attacks maybe indians or have indian sympathies...teh attacks on reconnaisance aircraft can hardly benefit anyone else...
  • Aug18-2012--The useless interior minister already knows that teh militants attacking the kamra base were trained in north waziristan without even talking to anyone or interrogating anyone...one wonders why he did not have them intercepted if he knew so much...many say the attack is a just a cover story for a fight that erupted between teh base commander and his men...
  • Aug17-2012--The PPP unilaterally forms a commission on dividing punjab ...The PMLn says it was not consulted and is opposed to new provinces just in the punjab..however there are supposedly three PMLn seraiki members in teh commission...many see teh inclusion of members from sindh and nwfp as an insult to teh punjab...a countrywide commission on new provinces in all provinces would be more appropriate...however teh zardaris and gilanis are bent upon dividing the punjab to save their parties and families from utter humiliation...seraiki areas seem tobe appropriately developed barring some areas...others suggest that teh constitution opposes the formation of new provinces as the only mention in teh constitution is a change of borders...others say since it is an anti constitutional step it could theoretically be shot down by the SC...many suggest that if teh PPP wants so many changes in teh constitution it should go for a referendum or a constituent assembly...
  • Aug17-2012--three hazara shiites shot dead in quetta by motorcycle killers
  • Aug17-2012--In one of the NRO review cases the AG ate humble pie and said that the government is working on a possible solution while teh judges questioned teh AG's negative attitude towards the court and said that there was no loss of prestige in teh primeminister appearing in court and saying a few positive sentences in which case teh court could accomodate him...however teh AG should consider withdrawing teh review petition and in case there is no accomodation the teh law would take its course...The case was adjourned indefinitely and teh focus is now on teh Aug 27 hearing in teh contempt case
  • Aug17-2012--Attack on Kamra airbase by upto nine militants who are killed...two fauji's killed...The attack comes against a situation of increased military-US cooperation with Gen. Kiyani suggesting that an operation is imminent in northern waziristan...while teh army claims control of 86% of taleban areas...teh taleban have demonstrated control at teh ground level with almost daily skirmishes with teh military..the attack comes at a time of increased cooperation between imran khan and sheikh rashid a known taleban sympathiser and PPP threats against teh state if teh SC disqualifies another premier...for teh first time the security guards at a military facility seemed vigilant although eight militants crossed over into the first security cordon..no photographic evidence of teh attack although villagers said that they saw firing and a blast...TTP claims responsibility saying aircraft from kamra bombed their villages...taleban claim killing twelve and destroying three aircraft...PAF says one aircraft damaged possibly a SAAB 2000 aerial radar plane
  • Aug17-2012--In a another terrorist incident possibly Fata related but more sectarian in intent 50 militants stopped four buses and 19 shiites were pulled off the buses and shot dead in the babusar top, mansehra area
  • Aug16-2012--In a situation of utter confusion on teh government side teh attorney general refuses to even accept that teh SC has to interpret and apply teh constitution and that teh primeminister is subject to SC decisions and has to follow them...On teh SC side the precedent that an obstinate primeminister who deliberately does not apply court decisions and orders is guilty of contempt and is thus disqualified for ridiculing teh courts still stands...many feel that teh SC should determine the limits of immunity which under article 248 is limited to government functions and actions...many others feel that teh SC has become stronger in the light of almost childish attitudes of teh PPP and teh court now feels confident of even striking down anti constitutional amendments..many feel that teh problem has been created by the nakama gilani who did not order teh NRO cases revived as if there were no NRO...The government has been acting asif teh NRO still stands...

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...!
