I heard a new term being used in reference to Pakistan today on the news channeles - Pakistan is the Somalia of Asia.

That is a very big drop. Even a failed state would have been better - I mean even Zimbabwe is considered a failed state and is never compared to Somalia.

This is ominous, indeed.

Hamid mian,

Finally, I am proud of you getting it.....[ i think it is nonsense to suggest that india is behind this attack in lahore...] face the facts...punjoos are in the grip of the most insidious group who have created hatred amongst humanity….ruling elite of puristan can not handle this kind of asymmetric warfare…it is not about your usual slogan “let my people go� anymore. The continuous decay of puristan should make the community of nations get together and invite the combined military of all nations surrounding the land of the pure. This is just to save puristan from some of its own murderers. Shouldn’t the UNSC consider pakiland’s instability?

My dear Hamidm sahib:

If you need more convincing, please keep reading.

Their power could be the right stimulus package for Pakistan. They would not only seal the border, but innovate to block all air coming from east of the border. That air has the whiff of early morning railroad track activity, and that can pollute pristine minds of their daughters even inside their black tents. They will need to create “new air�, and lots of black tents. This will mean new spending and more jobs in R&D, education and manufacturing. After all someone will have to coach in new sports, new education and in creating world’s largest black tent manufacturing operation. Karachi stock exchange will be vibrant, which otherwise it simply doomed. Pakistan simply cannot lose, discards of Gopinath will make sure.

hamidm #67 Your attempts to conflate mullahism with the rule of law are absurd. Mullahs understand the meaning of habeas corpus as little as your general cousins.

I can see three possibilities for this odd behavior -

1. you normally an honest man, but are driven to hypocrisy in your attempts to promote the rule of the generals in Pakistan.
2. you normally an honest man, but are driven to hypocrisy in your obsessive compulsive hatred of islam based on childhood experiences at the hands of your "conservative" family.
3. all of the above.
4. None of the above - and you are merely dishonest by force of habit.

Re: # 67

hamidm2 Sahib

Media in Pakistan is either well paid to represent a certain view or part of the same psychotic crises which ails rest of the nation.

As per Hameed Gul, Americans were the real targets who were operating drones from the Sri Lanka bus.

"Open letter to Hamidm sahib"

My Dear Hamidm sahib:

This is the beginning of revenge of discards of Gopinath’s favorites. With Masadi & Co’s help these discards of Gopinath have been educated into developing a new favorite sport. There is no need for colonial cricket. They keep writing on the wall in their own handwriting. Please stop erasing it now, and immediately bring them to power. All will be quiet (just look across the border there were no riots in Mumbai whenever Shiv Sena ruled. The grain of brain these pehalwans have is very rare and must not be wasted by using it.

New look Hamidm sahib could be sporting a million dollar (that you may not otherwise spend) look. You may sport a flowing grey beard and wear above ankle shalwars instead of Levis or khakis. However what would you like to be served instead of scotch?

Don’t you think if you keep bringing army back, and allow pehalwans to keep taking their dangal to the street, you would see more of it? Your support for abortion rights is unheard of a good republican. Why does Pakistan get pregnant with democracy, only to be aborted?

Dear Allah, please make the reality of shariat a reality in pakistan. Make sure the brave taliban get to rid the evil and corrupt soceity of cable television and priyanka chopra videos, make sure that girls get to read the official sentences instead of being suprised by the acid washes. Please send down the official length of the pajamas...thereis still some confusion among the paan chewing humwatnon who have red hair adn black surma and very very tight pajamas. Also please bless my new venture called "totally taliban"!! I need some r&d investment to make my flagship product, bag-o-rox. I think it will be a veritable hit with the sunday family outing to gaddafi stadium for the scheduled stonings.

Re: # 66

Sorry. Lost sight of the big picture.

As for the policemen, I don't know how many actually fought back and how many were just at the wrong time at the wrong place. I guess only one was able to get out of the van in time and started hitting the *RAW* agents back.

To him, definitely... may he Rest In Peace.

He did his job well.

Re: # 60

bismillah mian,

.... i don't understand why the media in pakistan has to give mullahs like imran khan equal time on tv ...... imran khan obviously didn't take rejection from jemima too well and is now taking it out on the entire white race - blaming america for everything that ails pakistan ........ hameed gul is another non-bearded jihadi who should have been shipped off to guantanamo ...... as for the dozens of bearded wierdos who are constantly spouting off after taking your name, i have no idea who invites them and why .......

.... and most pakis, including tahmed's civil society, seem to be suffering from brain damage cassed by the azaaan that some fool yelled into their ear when they were born .... if india had toilets i would move there!
