we are all educated and can read the Qur'an and Hadith ourselves.


and yet mosques are segregated...

so does this mean the separation is sanctioned by mo's book?

Surviving Musharraf\'s Exit? the wheels are coming off the delusion express
this is what happens when pakis resort to self-deception...when certain ivy league grads from rutgers were told Purchasing power equivalent numbers were the real numbers, they gave us some BS about how inflation numbers are mis-reported...

gotta thank mushy..he bought F-16s that come with enough restrictions to make them worthless against India...money well spent as far as India is concerned...thanks to that F-16 deal, now India has a choice of more advanced F-16s or F-18s and can still continue to spend more on education as a % of GDP..

all hail mushy....


16m more people pushed below poverty line after 1999: Dar

By our correspondent

LAHORE: Finance Minister Ishaq Dar has said that the government will change its foreign investment policy to discourage temporary investments meant to generate quick profits and take back investments.

Addressing a conference organised by the South Asia Federation of Accountants on Friday, he said new foreign investment policy would encourage long-term investment in agro-based and manufacturing industries to create jobs.

Dar said the government would have to take some painful measures to avoid any financial disaster in the future, adding that only the rich would feel the brunt of these measures. "The coalition government will change monetary and fiscal policies to eradicate poverty," he added. He said the pro-rich policies implemented by the previous government had marginalised the poor and the food inflation had changed the basic poverty parameters.

He said one US dollar could buy seven kg of flour in 1999 and one dollar income per day then rightly defined the poverty line. He said 16 million more people had been pushed below the poverty line after 1999.

"The purchasing power of a dollar has declined drastically since then. Now one dollar is just enough to buy three kg of flour," he said, adding that genuine evaluation revealed that anybody earning less than $3 per day was living below the poverty line. "The previous government's claim that poverty has been reduced from 34 to 23.5 percent is misleading because it used the parameter of one dollar per day," he said, adding that the previous government had spent lavishly on non-development projects. He said he would made public the balance sheet that he got on March 31 when he assumed the charge of his office.

MUSLIM TERRORISTS WANTED TO INFLICT 'HEAVY CASUALTIES'



A GROUP of Islamist terrorists plotted to blow up several passenger planes with liquid explosives, a court heard today.

A gang of eight men accused of planning to blow up transatlantic aircraft whilst in mid-air wanted to inflict “heavy casualties”, it was alleged at Woolwich Crown Court today.

Prosecutor Peter Wright said the victims of the terror attacks would have been an “unwitting civilian population” and that the men planned to inflict the casualties all in the name of Islam with a series of coordinated explosions.

Woolwich Crown Court heard how homemade devices would have been smuggled on to aircraft and detonated in flight by a suicide bomber, had the alleged plot not been foiled by counter terrorist police in August 2006.

All eight men - Mohammed Gulzar, Umar Islam, Ibrahim Savant, Waheed Zaman, Assad Sarwar, Abdullah Ahmed Ali, Arafat Khan, and Tanvir Hussain - deny conspiracy to murder and conspiracy to carry out an explosion on board an aircraft.

Mr Wright told the jury the defendants were “almost ready to put their plot into practice” at the time of their arrests.

“The disaster they contemplated was not long off,” he said.

The men and others were prepared to board the aircraft carrying their “deadly cargo” and detonate it in flight, he said.

Mr Wright said Abdulla Ahmed Ali from Walthamstow, Assad Sarwar and Mohammed Gulzar were the main men behind the murderous plot.

“They intended to construct and detonate a device that would bring about not only the loss of their own lives but also all those that happened to be taking, by chance, the same journey.

“Unfortunately for these men, but to the considerable good fortune of those that were their intended targets of those devices their activities had come to the attention of the police,” he said.

Mr Wright told the court police had watched several members of the gang for many months.

He said: “From what had been observed in the days and months prior to the arrests it was realised that these men, together with others, were engaged in some sort of terrorist plot.”

The court heard how Ali and Gulzar were watched by police as they met frequently at a flat in Forest Road, Walthamstow, to make final preparations.

Police recovered a computer memory stick belonging to Ali which contained detailed information about flights and airport security, the jury was told.

“The memory stick contained details in respect of flight timetables, baggage information, security advice in respect of restricted items and other information about Heathrow airport,” said Mr Wright.

The jury was shown files on the memory stick giving details of flights from Heathrow to cities in North America including Boston, Denver, Chicago, Miami, New York and Montreal.

The information included the airline, terminal at Heathrow, departure times, arrival times, flight numbers, aircraft type and number of stops, the court heard.

The information on the memory stick focused only on one-way flights from Heathrow. These were all commercial airliners with passenger capacities of almost 300 people per plane.

“Collectively the flights were each of them non-stop transatlantic journeys to north American destinations,” said Mr Wright.

Of the flights on the memory stick, seven had been highlighted, the jury was told. They were on three airlines - Air Canada, United Airlines and American Airlines.
