NRO Is Just a Name
Posted by zeemax Nov 24, 2009 07:33 am
#5 Posted by RiazHaq,

Nawaz Sharif worked hard on money laundering, according to handwritten affidavit and testimony of Sharif's buddy and PML(N) leader Ishaq Dar recently released.

Are you familiar with the Dollar Bonds schemes (DBCs/RBCs) allowed by Govt of Pakistan when Dr. Mehbub-ul-Haq was Finance Minister, and in force at the time when these transactions took place? And the judgment by Lahore High Court on this issue?

Obviously you are not - notwithstanding your alumni status.

However if you are, then we can go further - whether this was money laundering or not.

What? No hindoos here? They're more interested in performing circle jerks on the Pakistani articles :)

Q-religion is a separate religion and since the state considers them "non-muslims" they should be allowed too to practice their religion bhai as simple as that !!!

Since they're non-Muslims, they're allowed to practice their religion but not allowed to masquerade as Muslims and call their prayer centers 'Mosques'. That's illegal.
The Strange Case of the Indian Channels That Did Not Air the 26/11 Documentary

harish_hyd,

Pakistan has already accepted formally that Kasab is Pakistani, regardless of whether he is or not. So that's not the debate. The question is, which SIMs in Pakistan did the calls originate from?

And no, these have not been provided to Pakistan in the various dossiers provided.

Now you claim from some newspaper reports that it was actually not cellphones but it was a VOIP account (reseller account mind you) by a kharak singh who is actually a Lashkar guy. In that case, what was his IP address in Pakistan? Has your government asked Callphonex?

Yaar, the awkward truth is that it was discovered early on about the dozen or so SIMs used were purchased in Calcutta and Delhi, and some arrests made locally. When's their trial? It's been now a year and no sign of them.

harish_hyd,

I see. So you don't have those numbers. You have crisp and clear recordings of the phonecalls in four different languages, but none of the calling party's numbers.

Have you wondered why? Or asked your government?

It would seem an open and shut case against Pakistani perpetrators if those numbers were known. A bit more evidence than the Pakistani chutney jars they found in some rubber dinghy. Don't you think?

harish_hyd,

I think you missed my point. I was asking about the numbers of the calling party (the handlers), and not the receiving party (the raiders).

What were those numbers?

harish_hyd,

Maybe. And you might also tell me if those calls were intercepted, so would be the numbers these came from, and the cellphone SIMs would have been traced to Pakistan.

What numbers did these calls come from? Your despatches doesn't say that. Neither does your government. Can you?

What's so strange about it? The audio intercepts were a hoax and the indian channels were probably advised not to air them.

People from the same group were talking about 'Julm' and 'Jiadti' in a thick indian accent to the media live from Taj during the attack, and here in Nariman House they're switching back and forth between crisp Karachi Urdu and Gujranwala Punjabi with some English thrown in. Were they linguists or what?

Islam and Modern Times: Is There a Case For Reinterpretation?
Posted by zeemax Oct 24, 2009 10:28 pm
sattar Bhai,

Your defense of Mirza Bhai is admirable, even more so consdiering your admitted ignorance of Mirza Bhai's writings.

You argue on semantics with Urstruly, while being completely unaware what words Mirza used for even Jesus Christ and his family - let alone the others.

Would you like me to post a screen capture of Vol 11, page 291 of 'Roohaney Khazain', one of the most revered books of Mirzayees written by Mirza Bhai, where he terms Jesus's paternal and maternal grandmothers as prostitutes and fornicators, refers to Mary Magdelene as 'kanjari', and reviles Jesus for being in her 'sohbat' and letting her massage his head with the perfume acquired with the proceeds of her 'zana kari'?

I think I'll post it anyway. Let's see you defend that, and advise us of it's true 'context'. That should be quite amusing :)

Look at the iLog section because images can't be posted here)

sattar Bhai,

So Mirza Bhai was also Jesus Bhai as he claimed. Right?

#72 tahmed32,

How many votes other than MQM and ANP (both are pro-India)?

All, including PPP, are 'Good Taliban' supporters in one measure or another.
