Re: # 353

tahmed mian,

no i don't, but you can buy premium waterfront property 'up north' for 30 cents on the dollar ..... the way things are going, i will have to turn off the lights in michigan before i leave.....

.... going back to the swat thing, i think it was a mistake to let this jinn out of the bottle (again) ....... they seem to have bought off the father-in-law, but the son-in-law is still out there and if the government doesn't exterminate him he will continue to grow in strength and spread his mayhem ..... if the americans leave afghanistan - which they just might - then we will be truly fckued as i have been predicting ........ i don't know if obama has what it takes to stand tough - the guy has already done three somersaults in the three weeks he has been in office ...... he was a great campaigner but i don't know if he is presidential material ......

....... the swat deal would be fine if they can produce fazlullah's dead body and hang it in the main market of mingora for a couple of days .....

Hamid miyan,

Can u please tell me how you don't get worked up in the face of biting criticism sometimes bordering on abuses? I wish to develop this quality but seldom succeed.

Re: # 348 nemescis: "Arjun, in my opinion is a straight forward chap trying to call spade a spade."

If arjun in your opinion is a straight forward guy, then pigs must be birds, cows must be gods, and you must be a one eyed jack!

I think you had you better stop exploring people's previous births. Chowk is for exchanging views and not an arena for kickboxing. Also, it is not an in thing for your learnings. You remember recently there was a manifestation of rebirth in the Kashmir valley? Your mullahs said it was not true since quran did not profess it, evidences notwithstanding.

"angry indians (arjun), India will never be overtaken by fundamentalism, because it is alien to Indic thought and philosophy."

Well said except that it is wrong to put arjun in the same group mentioned there. Arjun, in my opinion is a straight forward chap trying to call spade a spade.

ha ha ha ha ha ha hahahahaha.....

I just came across this story on CNN (might be old news to many here). This guy, like Tahmed, has been fighting the "negative portrayals of Muslims in America"...hahahahahahahaha....

From CNN:

Founder of Islamic TV station accused of beheading wife

NEW YORK (CNN) -- The founder of an Islamic television station in upstate New York aimed at countering Muslim stereotypes has confessed to beheading his wife, authorities said.


Muzzammil Hassan has been charged with murder in the death of his wife, Aasiya Hassan.

Muzzammil Hassan was charged with second-degree murder after police found the decapitated body of his wife, Aasiya Hassan, at the Bridges TV station in the Buffalo suburb of Orchard Park, said Andrew Benz, Orchard Park's police chief.

Hassan was arrested Thursday.

His wife filed for divorce January 6, and police had responded to several domestic violence calls at the couple's home, Benz said.

Hassan went directly to the police station after his wife's death and confessed to killing her, Benz told CNN. Benz declined to give further details.

Attempts to reach an attorney for Hassan were unsuccessful, and his family didn't return calls from CNN.

He had two children, 4 and 6, with his wife. He had two other children, 17 and 18, from his previous marriage.

"we may very well see the mullah hang himself (by showing the hollowness of "sharia law" in addressing real issues). and the nwfp gov is no fool either."

For many people, sharia *is* the real issue, not a means to some other end. These people wield a stick big enough the Pakistani army is unwilling to antagonise them. So all this may be wishful thinking.
