Musharraf’s Days are Numbered

#28 Posted by pavocavalry

... there are three aspects of benazirs death.the sipah i sahaba was hijacked by ISI once Azam Tariq was murdered by ISI and all suicide bombers of Sipah i Sahaba went to ISI control.9 bullets alone were pumped in Azam Tariqs heart.

Quite accurate re Azam Tariq. Also it appears the suicide bombers and acomplices are all turning out to be Lashkar-e-Jhangvi as per recent arrests (Sargodha Airforce bus, Lahore High Court Attack, Sherpao two attacks, Musharraf, Shaukat Aziz). Given that Azam Tariq was assasinated and leadership of the Jhangvi Faction was in control of Riaz Basra and Akram Lahori, both of whom were reported killed at-least three times in different encounters, but speculation is that they disappeared! As I recall Riaz Basra's mother had refused to confirm identification of the body and had said it was not him.

Yes, you're definitely on to something here.

Then are the Chaudries of Gujrat and off course the Musharraf junta.

The Gujrat Chaudhries are more and more in the grapevine, for very sinister dealings. The recent arrest and deportation of Ch. Wajahat at Gatwick while returning from Barcelona is a very curious incident. British police were actually tipped off and were waiting for him.

Also, Benazir had specifically named them in her letter to musharraf as trying to kill her.

Re: # 49 Zee Sahib,
This is the first time I have heard of ISI doing the job on Azam Tariq. The word was he was done in by Sipah-e-Mohammad in the continuing proxy war between SA and Iran.

What would have the ISI/govt gained by eliminating Azam Tariq. Wasn't his the clinching vote that got Mir Zafarullah Jamali elected as the PML-Q candidate for PM?

Another mystery to be solved:

US embassy official found dead in Islamabad

By Munawer Azeem

ISLAMABAD, Jan 28: A security officer of the US embassy was found dead in his residence on Monday.

The embassy said no “foul play” was involved, but senior police officers thought otherwise.

They said it was too early to determine from the bullet wound in the skull of Mr Keith Ryan whether it was a case of suicide or homicide.

Keith Ryan, 37, was due to return to the US on Monday.

According to hospital and police sources, the embassy stopped the authorities from conducting post-mortem after the body was shifted to the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences.

Doctors there were allowed to carry out an external examination only. The embassy officials said an autopsy would be carried out in Germany.

The incident came to light when the embassy staff arrived at the house of Keith Ryan, on Street 63, Sector F-7/3, to take him to Islamabad airport for a US-bound flight.

As no response came from inside the house, the staff called police at around 9am. When they entered the house with the policemen, they found Mr Ryan lying in a pool of blood in the bathroom, a loaded pistol lying nearby.

The police and the embassy officials collected fingerprints and other evidence before shifting the body to Pims.

Sources at the hospital said Mr Ryan had a bullet wound in the back of his head. The bullet was still lodged in his skull, according to doctors.

Had he committed suicide by shooting himself through the mouth, the bullet would have exited, according to the doctors.

The medico-legal department of the hospital has asked the management to conduct an autopsy.

Mr Ryan, a senior official of the US Department of Homeland Security, was born in 1970. He was posted to Pakistan in Nov 2006. The department was set up after the Sept 11, 2001, attacks to keep an eye on immigrants.

Mr Ryan’s designation was senior special agent.

He leaves behind his wife and three young children.

The Islamabad police, in a report to the federal government, ascribed the death to suicide, but said a final opinion would be given only after an investigation.

The Sipah-e-Muhammad was disbanded through efforts of Allama Sajid Naqvi when he joined MMA. It was not a shia/sunni affair.

... re "Wasn't his the clinching vote that got Mir Zafarullah Jamali elected as the PML-Q candidate for PM?"

I don't know anything about that, but Azam Tariq's influence was mostly limited to the Jhang area. It is though true that he had succeeded to create a large contingent of bombers and organizational network in most of Punjab who were blowing up Shia mosques. Maybe ISI felt that could come in handy. Therefore the mystery surrounding the disappearance of his two top deputies - Riaz Basra and Akram Lahori.

Re: # 45

Dr Gill,
Spoken like a true democrat with the state of The State of Pakistan in heart. I wonder how many people here on chowk would even countenance "If the majority of people want Talbanization, let it be. I think esprit de corps is the essence of democracy".

Here is the thing - given that the taliba might come to power through the ballot box - what is there thatwould stop them from changing the rules to keep the power in their hands at all times?

HP and Zeemax,

What is common between Jinnah, ZAB, Bibi - all shias
Was Zia ul haq a shia?

here are three bits of information

(a) In March 1987, a Saudi-backed Ahle Hadith leader,
Allama Ehsan Illahi Zaheer, and four other clerics were
killed in a bomb blast in Lahore. The Shias were the
prime suspects.
(b)The following year, TNFJ leader Ariful
Hussaini was murdered in Peshawar.
(c)When the Shia town of Gilgit in the Northern Areas was attacked thatsame year by a Sunni lashkar, the Zia governmentappeared complicit since the civil and military law enforcement agencies made no attempt to intervene.


Would you relate these three with the following event

(d)Zia's death in a midair explosion in 1988

Police encounter with Lashkar-e-Jhangvi in Landhi, Karachi. One DSP and a constable dead several injured. The person captured Qasim Toori of Jhangvi, is supposed to be wanted for the Corps Commander attack in Karachi. A sack full of 25 kg of ball bearings used in suicide bombings found from the premises.

Connect the dots.

First they said Qasim Toori was captured, now they're saying he was killed in the encounter. So now they have another recruit expert at bombings after Riaz Basra and Akram Lahori.

Re: # 57 zeemax

As much I understand it, the Lashkare Jhangvi was a US funded terrorist group whose main objective was to assassinate all Shias of TNFJ who were trying to import Iranian revolutionary ideology into pakistan. What caused the split between this terrorsit org and their pattron fouj and US.

Zeemax #58 #57 thanks for the information. Now can you please paint the bigger picture and tell us who is winning in this war and who is losing? Also what this loss of Toori means to LeJ and his recruitment to ("they") (sic) means.

Man, you are one for the loony bin if you carry on like this.....

It is highly entertaining and enlightening!

#59 Posted by Urstruly,

Why do you think there's a split? I believe Jhangvi are still carrying out attacks at the agencies' behest while pretending to have joined the Taliban movement of FATA..

Re: # 62

makes sense. i think that is how fouj justify their participation in wot while at the same time making americans shit their pants
