If Pakistan, bless its murderous soul, were to assume human form, it would have long been consigned to Broadmoor, Her Majesty’s special prison for the criminally insane, whose inmates usually remain incarcerated behind its forbidding walls until death do them part. Irfan Hussain, doughty Dawn columnist, Pakistan’s principal English-language newspaper, relates a poignant tale of a Christian mother and her four children murdered in their home in Jhelum by an inflamed Muslim mob led by a fanatical mullah, while the husband and father, policeman Jamshed Masih, was away on duty. The family had apparently been told to move from the...

"We encourage dialogue between India and Pakistan because it's in the interest of both the countries and in the interest of the US that these countries that...

Kucinich, Paul Force Afghanistan Debate
Posted by admin / Under Pakistan
The House this afternoon engaged in a full-throated debate over the U.S. military efforts in Afghanistan and Pakistan — a debate heavily colored by the release earlier this week of 92,000 war-related secret documents obtained by the group WikiLeaks. The congressional debate was prompted by an unlikely alliance of Reps. Dennis Kucinich (D., Ohio) and Ron Paul (R., Texas), two impassioned lawmakers at different ends of the political spectrum who have run quixotic campaigns for their parties’ presidential nominations. The two congressmen offered a resolution ordering President Barack Obama to withdraw U.S. military personnel from Pakistan, saying their presence violates...

Posted by admin / Under Pakistan
NEW DELHI: A day after Wikileaks brought out Pakistan's thriving partnership with Taliban and other terror groups, the US publicly asked Islamabad to take action against the 26/11 perpetrators.

Murder on the Khyber Pass express
Posted by admin / Under Pakistan
The 92,000 American classified military documents released by WikiLeaks add to the evidence that Pakistan's intelligence service backs the Taliban, to the point of helping the Taliban plan assassinations of American and Afghan officials. This raises the question: Who covered up a scandalous arrangement known to everyone with a casual acquaintance of the situation? The answer is the same as in Agatha Christie's 1934 mystery about murder on the Orient Express, that is, everybody: former United States president George W Bush and vice president Dick Cheney, current US President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden, India, China and Iran....
