#417 zeemax: i told you that strong language is not a substitute for weak arguments.

you say i speak with a forked tongue - and the best you could come up with is confusing bhutto`s slogan of ``roti, kapra aur makan`` with bhutto`s actions which did the opposite by destroying pakistan`s economic progress at that time.

i point this out, and you change your tune to say it is his ``judicial murder`` that you claim i support.

anyway - i am not in the habit of having ``discussions`` with individuals who are abusive one minute and ``my friend`` the next. go look at the mirror if you want to see a forked (not to mention filthy and abusive) tongue.

#416 by tahmed32,

My point is not ZABs performance or lack of it during his reign. My point is his judicial murder which you support and at the same time use his slogan to express wishes of the people.

Above is being a fake with a forked tongue.

#414 zeemax: as i have pointed out many times on chowk, ZAB proved to be an egotistical landlord, and in fulfilling his ego he destroyed the vibrant pakistani economy of that time by nationalizing banks and seeking government control over other enterprises. so, despite the fact that he used the slogan ``roti, kapra aur makaan``, the fact is that it was a lie and he was as fake as the corrupt and jahil mullahs who claim piety.

and as such, i am perfectly consistent in condemning ZAB while saying that ``roti, kapra aur makaan`` are the only real issues, not music cassettes or any of the other ``mullah issues`` that musharraf expertly plays on to stay in power.

#411 by teshah,

I guess you can`t fall any further than terming the gang rape of a low-status rural woman mandated by a tribal jirga in penance for her brother`s alleged sin as being concocted by her for her personal gain.

You`re just a `nali ka keera`. Tough to be lower than that but you can try, imbecile.

#413 by tahmed32,

... zeemax is merely throwing back the same words at me....

Nope. What I`m throwing back at you is your consistent glee and persistent cheering over the ZAB judicial murder which even the consenting judge Naseem Hassan Shah has publicly admitted to having been on trumped up charges, alongwith his further clarification that had the bench not consented, Zia would have thrown out the entire judiciary ...

And then, you proclaim in post # 150:

#150 by tahmed32 :

... The fact is that for the average Pakistani, ``roti, kapra or makaan`` for himself and his children is far more important ...


Where is this coming from if not from a dishonest forked tongue?:)

teshah #411 mere words not backed by substance mean nothing. when i called urstruly a fake, i did that when he claimed that he hates adultery etc. in any form by reminding him that he wrote one of the most lewd articles on chowk. zeemax is merely throwing back the same words at me. only difference is - i dont make tall claims like urstruly and i dont write lewd article like urstruly.

hamidm: dont take these rantings so seriously.

Here is one little jab at mullahism to report: we have a pakistani grocery store owner who will yell ``brother, brother`` at top volume when you enter his shop and keep ranting ``bismillah, bismillah`` as you shop and everything about him says ``Fake as a Khhota Paisa``. despite my better judgement i went to his shop today at wife`s request and decided to beat him at his own game by yelling ``brother how are you today`` before he had a chance to yell the same thing to me. the man seemed pleased and later at the cash register tried to chat by yelling ``Bush is a big liar, big liar``. That was the last straw (reminded me too much of Urstruly the Lewd Puritan) so I yelled back ``So he is a good muslim then!!``

The reaction was interesting. He turned pale, and quickly switched his tune: ``Brother you have said the right thing. Muslims lie and cheat more than any other people and pretend to be pious.`` and said he was so happy with my honesty that he claimed he gave me a 5% discount. This is the depth of the convictions of these ``brothers``!!

So what do you make of these nuts?

Re: # 371
tahmed

I am just trying to fathom the limit of lowness to which a human being can fall.

Here is a description of you by Zeemaxat #375:

``However what you say above in 1,2 & 3 is true in case of most others, and particularly the ones you name i.e. tahmed, hamidm and arjun, because the first is a dishonest fake with a forked tongue......``

Re: # 405

......... the hudaybia principle: the end justifies the means and laws and treaties made with/by ``kafirs`` are not worth the camel skin they are written on ........

``But even if all the demolished mosques are proven to be built illegally, we should resist and protest their demolition at this time for the very fact that this dastardly act of demolition is being done by a kafir and munafiq government ``

............. hitler was a novice at this game

Besides, some forms of protest and resistance are ``better`` for whom?

But HisExcellency, rulers always want all others to be peaceful and not violent in the least. :(

{{But even if all the demolished mosques are proven to be built illegally, we should resist and protest their demolition at this time for the very fact that this dastardly act of demolition is being done by a kafir and munafiq government}}

Resistance and protest is everybody`s right. But some forms of protest and resistance are better than others :)) Suppose the roles are reversed and Mullahs are in power. How would you like the liberals to protest mullah actions? With dandas, klashinokovs and abductions? Or with dharnas?

Raw_Dust:

I might not be able to frequent chowk over the next week or so. But when I come back, I would like to know more about your thoughts on religion etc.

Re: # 395

May be so. But even if all the demolished mosques are proven to be built illegally, we should resist and protest their demolition at this time for the very fact that this dastardly act of demolition is being done by a kafir and munafiq government which promotes zina and enforces corruption in an Islamic country while pushing an evil agenda of their foreign masters.

Re: # 403
What t32 suspected him of saying i.e. what you said to R_D in 394.
I saw humor in it because I wont be surprised if R_D uses the exact words.Anyway my flippancy seems out of place here.So you guys carry on.
