And then there was The Impeachment Issue…
yes,those dicatorships and the bangladesh seperation was pretty crap for the reputation of the army, i'll admit that. but they were commanded to do all that crap - wrong or right, which is generally what armies are for.
what is really moronic though is that under musharraf the very defence of the country was sent out to attack its own people. balochistan is supposed to belong to pakistan, but at the rate all this is going under mush's rule we'll lose it.
under the right command, this very army could've proved different. it's a shame really how much we've lost thanks to mush and his alliance with psycho bush.

i dont think we can really blame the guy generally, women cant be categorised, there are those who want to go out and i dont know.. start bricklaying, driving trucks and there are those who prefer to sit at home and file their nails, men cant be expected to treat us all exactly the same.
i have to say though, i've never faced much problems with sexism, but only the other day, some guy i 'turned down' who is well.. 'well-known' and can-do-no-wrong in the eyes of others has been poking fun at me behind my back and coming out with all sorts of untrue stories to people who matter in my professional life, it just brings you back down to reality, a woman can try being as dignified as she pleases, but so long as there are perverts about, they will always try degrade women by whichever means. i dont know what the solution is to that but it's pretty upsetting.

a LOT has changed during these past couple of decades, gradually us women have revolutionised the way things are done. we have seeped into 'mans world' and forced them to accept our 'invasion', the fact that it's still a novel concept means there are still minor hiccups here and there.i dont think we can really blame the guy generally, women cant be categorised, there are those who want to go out and i dont know.. start bricklaying, driving trucks and there are those who prefer to sit at home and file their nails, men cant be expected to treat us all exactly the same.

i've never known a man to misuse his authority and undermine his own countryman in the way that mush has done, he's really bullied and abused his people and services like the army and police.
we can only dream of a govt. like britain's which really looks after its people (britain is probs the best govt system in the world - usa is nowhere near) - democracy in pakistan however - is a good start.
the MAJORITY has spoken, the people have a right to choose what is best for them, we're not a stupid nation, we want to be rid of mush.
yes - impeach mush!

It's a shame how under mush's direction as the country's leader he's flushed the army's reputation down the toilet, they were once deemed somewhat respectable, one of the most disciplined armies in the world. i've never known a man to misuse his authority and undermine his own countryman in the way that mush has done, he's really bullied and abused his people and services like the army and police.

in answer to the conclusion; either way it's incredibly sweet, he obviously held this lady in high regard as a friend or as his lady love...
allama iqbal is a legend and always will be, and has described himself exactly as i'd thought him.. (based on what i've read on him etc), he's predicted his followers well, though i'd replace ''worship'' with ''respect'' and ''admire..'' .. but yes.. thanks for sharing this!

The Indian Mujahideen – The Answer to BJP’s Pseudo-Secularist Fascism or a New Method to Spread Unrest?
why is it that the suspects are automatically ''muslim''??
during the mumbai train blasts (was it 3 years ago?), i read an article (in a european weekly) on the amount of terror networks/crime gangs in india capable of doing such stuff, yet the indian govt is pointing fingers at the muslim minorities without any real evidence. that seems to be the case again.

Why is Karachi Turning Into a Sell-Out?
another thing i want to add is how many count the fatalities and damage at the hands of ''islamists'' (btw what are ''islamists'' what a stupid word!) and yet the world's media hasn't acknowledged the terror the pakistani/iraqi/afgani people are facing day in day out.. they too are victims and are vulnerable.
uh.. forget it, it'll never make a difference what we say, we will have to learn to live with barefaced hypocrisy and bullshit.
