Al-Qaeda doesn’t exist?
December 28, 2009
In lieu of what is happening in Pakistan these days and somewhat of a parallel scenario towards fabricated front organizations by special interest groups or organizations, this video by BBC is a good refresher. Watch it and then ponder what is happening in Pakistan and how the fabricated splinter groups claim responsibilities for attacks within Pakistan and its neighbours to shape the decisions and policies.
Also it appears that Al-Qaeda has moved its base to Yemen now, lets see what transpires there eventually? Is Saudi Arabia the next target for chaos? Is KSA under threat from its own people and a new strategy is being hatched to silence its “poor” people yet again in order to maintain the status quo?
From Afghainstan to Iraq to Pakistan and now in Yemen!
You can draw a lot of similiarities to TTP (Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan), the “Pakistani Taliban”. Just watch it and make your own opinion:
Appeal to support displaced Swat People
May 9, 2009
While the military operation against the barbaric Taliban animals is in full swing in Swat Valley, the migration of locals is taking a toll on the government and the people effected by this necessary and hopefully the final decisive operation. Temporary migration of these people is important for the safety of locals while reducing the potentially unfortunate collateral damage. The ones who need to be destroyed and killed are the Talibans, that must go on till the end.
I personally am requesting all the able Pakistanis living in Pakistan or abroad to fully support the Swati people who are being effected with this necessary operation. Also I request that we fully support the Pakistan Armed Forces and stand by them to help achieve this gruesome task that we face as a nation. Lets not dwell in the past, lets just remove our differences and move forward as one.
For now we shall support these displaced people to help them go through this tough times they are going through by helping them in any way we can, monetarily, camps, supplies, medicines, volunteering and whatever else is necessary. Whoever is involved with these crisis as a volunteer or through any connection, please identify to us the areas we can help in, like NGOs, organizations (secular), etc who are taking part in direct support. Please leave comments with as much information as you can by properly identifying the requested information.
Also the next phase of support will be rebuilding and rehabilitation of displaced Swat people. I’d personally like to know the plans and how can we all contribute? Also for the moment I am willing to extend as much help in any way even beyond my means. I remember how Pakistanis rose up after the Earthquake of October 2005, hopefully the same happens this time again.
Thank you…

I was watching this GEO TV show “Meray Mutabik” hosted by “Dr.” Shahid Masood regarding Swat problem, Zardari visit to the US and interview with Imran Khan, leader of Tehreek-e-Insaf Pakistan.
First of I hate it when Shahid Masood asks the question that if Americans are happy with the Swat operation? What in the HELL is he talking about? And he was not even being sarcastic, he meant what he was saying – idiot! This is our problem, our issue and we will take care of it – why do you have to bring Americans and other parties into this? Stupid characters like him confuse the already confused people. What an ass he is! Talibans are terrorizing the locals and acting like animals, is that not so visible to this stupid person?
Imran Khan is yet another disappointment. He plays the fear factor and moans and bitches about the government policies, regardless of the government. He is comparing the Swat operation with Hitler’s Third Reich fear factor – come on man, we know the history also – there is no comparison here! Plus we are not afraid of Taliban, just frustrated because we don’t agree with their ugly beliefs and do not want them around anymore – their atrocities are real and can be seen for real, so do not tell us that the fear is being manufactured. Although the western fears that they are capable of taking over Pakistan and its nukes are definitely far fetched – a discussion for another day.
Imran complains a lot without offering any solutions. He says that locals in Swat are being effected with this operation – not shit Sherlock! We already know that! They were suffering and were being terrorized by the Talibans but NO, he doesn’t mention that conveniently. Where was he when Talibans were butchering the local people and acting like animals? I would like to hear his proposal to address this problem? Or is he oblivious to all this? Also he blames everything on US and others for Pakistan’s problems. We may have some issues there, not saying there is no involvement at all, but lets hear some solutions man!? Quit talking about it, do something instead! I find his thoughts a bit irresponsible. Dr. Shireen Mazari, can you help this fellow a bit? Imran was better off as a world class cricketer, this is not working out well for him. He may mean well but he comes across as a bit naive.
Just to be fair, his remarks and concerns regarding Baluchistan have weight. We can not ignore what’s happening there and hopefully there is some plan to crush the source and their anti-state insurgent elements. Its a complex issue beyond the scope of this writing.
One thing we need to realize is that the Afghan war has long spilled over into Pakistan and all the garbage a.k.a Taliban has ended up in my country. This has become our war, lets not discuss its ownership anymore. Its in front of us – we need to fight it back and push the garbage back over to Afghanistan and let the Americans and their war sort them out over there. Ideally all the Talibans need to be killed beyond recognition but I do not want even their ugly dead bodies in my country. They need to be shipped out to Afghanistan and need to be killed there. America, you are so mighty and powerful, we will send you your shooting targets back into Afghanistan – where you are waging your war. Can you handle that without blaming Pakistan as terror central? You are not in Afghanistan to grow poppy right? Sort these bastards out and do us both a favor! Now we want you to DO MORE!
[NOTE: There are several versions of Taliban, the good, the bad and the ugly. The ones in Swat are the Ugly ones with outside support. Google it.]
Anti-Taliban wave has begun within Pakistan?
May 1, 2009
A few days ago I wrote about Secularibans , a wishful thinking on my part that the recent Taliban activity within Pakistan ought to wake up its sensible voices and get them out on the streets making their views be heard. Also a rebuttal to Hillary Clinton when she pretty much eluded that Pakistanis are not worried about the Taliban problem in Pakistan and are not willing to do something about it. Not that she has any influence over Pakistanis or if Pakistanis would react to it, the movement and the voices already exist, something many outside of Pakistan are not aware of I suppose.
Essentially Talibans have invoked the people, as I had hoped, who typically are a silent majority. Although this is just the beginning but the frustrated educated and sensible people of Pakistan who mostly stay quiet and not show their emotions finally had it and are coming out on the streets. Here is a little show of what’s going on as reported by CNN. CLICK HERE to see the report.
