Jamat e Islami is preparing for another Bloodshed

As Pakistan is passing through a very critical stage, the biggest enemy of Pakistan Jamat e Islami is preparing for an other bloodshed of Muslims of Pakistan.
Jamat e Islami was against the creation of Pakistan, Their Founder and Leader Molana Mododi was so allergic to Pakistan that he even called Pakistan "Na Pakistan" and called Quiad e Azam "Kafir e Azam"
Jamat e Islami in 1971 create groups of Thugs and cold blooded killers in the name of Al Shams and Al Badr, who not only Raped Muslim Bangali Women but also brutally massacred hundred and thousands of Bungali Muslims. The brutal killings and Rapes of Bangali Muslims lead to the breakup of Pakistan Thanks to the greatest Enemy of Pakistan Jamat e Islami as with out their help nobody dare to Break Pakistan.

Now Jamat e Islami is again planning the same, Jamat e Islami is organising a group of Killers, Thugs, Criminals and Assasins in the name of Shabab e Milli and the Leaders of Jamat e Islami are asking the terrorists of Shabab e Milli to prepare themselves to act like Al Badr and Al Shams.

The way Jamat e Islami is organising this group and asking them to act like Al Shams and Al Badr simply means they are again preparing for blood shed and hathcing a conspiracy against Pakistan, Their intentions are to do large massacres so that something bad happen to Pakistan.

Here is the proof taken from Jamate Islami newspaper Jasarat.

Kindly read the news article and prepare to counter the group of killers Jamat e Islami and Shabab e Milli .

Tum par Hazaar Khoon Maaf kion kay Tum PUNJABI Ho.

Happy Birthday Dear Quaid

I congratulate the Pakistani Nation on the 132 Birthday of Quaid e Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah.
I also ensure the Great Quaid that in the light of his speech on 11 August 1947 we will work to make this country a place where all the citizens of this country no matter what their religion, cast or language is, would be treated as equal citizens of this country and we also work against the people who were against the creation of this Nation Like Jamat e Islami and now imposing their will on the people who rejected them repeatedly in elections.

Here are the Golden words of Great Quaid.

“You are free; you are free to go to your temples, you are free to go to your mosques or to any other place of worship in this State of Pakistan. You may belong to any religion or caste or creed — that has nothing to do with the business of the State... We are starting with this fundamental principle that we are all citizens and equal citizens of one State... I think we should keep that in front of us as our ideal and you will find that in due course Hindus would cease to be Hindus and Muslims would cease to be Muslims, not in the religious sense, because that is the personal faith of each individual, but in the political sense as citizens of the State.”

Happy Birthday Dear Quaid

Taliban Rule in Pakistan

I was reading different newspapers in my office when is came across few pictures, and i was shocked to see those pictures.
The pictures are from Bara Near Peshwar where Local Talibans are doing the justice, The pictures also reminds me Taliban Rule in Afghanistan and same executions in Kabul Stadium.
I wonder what Pakistani Government is doing in those areas as these areas are completely outlawed and controlled by Talibans and local militants fighting against the State of Pakistan and Pakistan Army, Acts like these are also giving USA a chance to invade Pakistan.
I ask the people who are supporting Talibans that why they are supporting such people who are not only threat to Pakistan and Pakistanis but also giving bad name to our religion ISLAM.

I also urge the people of Karachi to get united against such elements as they are eying Karachi as their target from quite a while and Statements of Molvi Omer (Spokesman of Tehreek e Taliban Pakistan) in this regard is very threatening as well.

Mariam Nawaz's Illegal Migration to King Edward

PML-N leader Nawaz Sharif has asked Chief Justice of Pakistan Abdul Hameed Dogar to resign as part of the propaganda campaign in a section of the press alleging that Chief Justice’s daughter Farah Hameed Dogar received special favour in F Sc examination from the Federal Board, which facilitated her admission in the International Islamic Medical College.
This is despite the fact that Mr. Sharif’s own daughter, Mariam Nawaz, was awarded a special favour coincidentally also with regard to admission in a medical college, which, in her case, happens to be a public sector institution.
Weekly Pulse investigations reveal that Mariam Nawaz scored 580 marks out of 850 marks in the Matric exam with a B Grade and 765 marks out of 1000 marks in F Sc (Pre-Medical) with a B Grade. These marks were too low to get admission in any public sector medical college in Punjab in 1991, which Mr Sharif was the Prime Minister and the PML-N had a government in Punjab.
Mariam Nawaz was interested in getting admission in the King Edwards Medical College, Lahore, which is Pakistan’s leading medical college and, therefore, the most competitive in admission merit. The admissions in medical colleges were granted on All-Punjab basis, with the lowest merit being 803 marks in the F Sc (pre-Medical), at the Quaid-i-Azam Medical College, Bahawalpur. Obviously, the merit at the King Edwardss Medical College was far higher.
Mariam Nawaz was admitted to the Army Medical College, Rawalpindi, in 1991. However, within a short time of one month or so, Mariam Nawaz was migrated to King Edwards Medical College in violation of the Migration Policy.
As per the rules mentioned in the Prospects of the Government Medical Colleges in the Punjab for Session 1991-92 regarding Migration, such migration shall be allowed only after the student has cleared the First Professional Examination.”
In detail, the said Migration rule for “a student who has been admitted in one medical college of the Province” and wants to migrate to another college within the province during the same course,” sets three conditions, two of which pertain to the father/guardian of the student either dying or transferred to another city being a government servant.
The rule says that migration should be discouraged under normal circumstances and the respective principals must agree before it takes place. The third rule that applies to Mariam Nawaz’s case, but was violated, states the following: “The migration can be allowed on compassionate grounds if both the principals agree. Such migration shall be allowed only after the student has cleared first, Professional Examination. The clause shall not be applicable to those admitted against Divisional, Under-Developed Seats.”
Since Mariam Nawaz was not admitted under such reserved seats, the above-mentioned clause duly applied to her case. Without appearing in the first Professional Examination, she was migrated from Army Medical College to King Edwards Medical College. She did not appear in the first Professional Examination even at King Edwards Medical College, and left the college before that.
Now those behind the mischievous campaign against Chief Justice Dogar’s daughter seem to imply that by using an “illegal” favour, she deprived another candidate of the right to get admission in the International Islamic Medical College, which, unlike King Edwards Medical College, is a private sector institution.
If the same criteria is applied to Mariam Nawaz’s case, then she deprived not just one but two candidates competing for admission in public sector medical colleges in 1991. If this was not enough, Pulse investigations reveal that one professor at King Edwards Medical College, Dr Shahnaz Javed of Physiology Department was transferred from the college for not allowing an illegal increase in her attendance percentage to meet her attendance shortage for lectures in that subject.
This magazine has further learnt that, in 1998, Mariam Nawaz again applied to the Principal of King Edwards Medical College to obtain admission in MBBS but was able to obtain admission in the Fatima Jinnah Medical College, Lahore. The request was approved by the Admission Committee of the College. Despite that, Mariam Nawaz did not join, thereby depriving a third candidate of the right to be admitted in a public sector medical college.
As against Mariam Nawaz, the current chief justice’s daughter is being targeted for seeking a favour, which, as she explained in a recent press statement, was no favour as such. Farah Hameed Dogar was just one of the 1093 applicants who applied for re-checking of their answer sheets after the Federal Bureau of Intermediate and Secondary Education declared the results for 2008.
According to her statement, she was among the 201 students for whom the broad issued revised mark sheets in accordance with rules and regulations, and that she applied for admission only in three private medical colleges which admit students on self-finance basis. She got admission in the International Islamic Medical College wherein 50 seats are filled on merit and another 50 are reserved for children of overseas Pakistanis. The college has one seat reserved for Al-Mizan Foundation, a welfare body for retired judges. This seat is rotated every year among the four provinces and in 2008 it was reserved for Sindh. That is how Farah Hameed Dogar was able to get admission at the International Islamic Medical College.
Compare this issue, which is pending hearing in the Islamabad High Court, with the mockery of justice done in the case of Mariam Nawaz, who was able to enter Pakistan’s best public sector medical college, the King Edwards with just 767 out of 1000 marks in F Sc (Pre-Medical) in 1991, despite the fact that the lowest admission merit that year was 803 out of 1000 marks in the F Sc (pre-Medical) at the Quaid-i-Azam Medical College, Bahawalpur.
17 years have passed since rules were violated to facilitate the illegal migration of Mariam Nawaz from Army Medical College, Rawalpindi, to King Edwards Medical College, Lahore, depriving two legitimate candidates of admission in public sector medical colleges of the Punjab. A decade has passed since Mariam Nawaz deprived yet another legitimate candidate of admission in the public sector medical college.
Yet Mian Nawaz Sharif has not apologized even once from the nation for this mockery of justice that took place first during his first stint in power at the Centre and in the Province and second time in his second stint in power at both places.

Pakistanis Want Crackdown on Talibans

Gallup poll shows the Pakistan Government enjoys domestic support for a crackdown on home-based extremists; public support for crackdown on terrorists

By Khalid Hasan

WASHINGTON: A new Gallup poll in Pakistan has shown that the government enjoys domestic support for a crackdown on home-based extremists, with 60 percent of Pakistanis interviewed in October saying the government should take a tougher approach to rid the country of terrorist activities.

Gallup’s survey shows substantial support across Pakistan for a tougher stance against terrorist activities, most visibly in Punjab. In the NWFP and Balochistan, where Al Qaeda, the Taliban, and other militants have been increasingly active, nearly half of residents think the government should take a tougher stance on ridding Pakistan of terrorist activities. Many view increasing terror-related violence in Pakistan this year as a test of the new government’s resolve to eliminate the ‘epidemic’ of terrorism at all costs. Continued bloodshed may also be testing the patience of everyday Pakistanis, nearly half of whom do not think their government is doing enough to fight terrorism, the poll showed. Only 30 percent think the government is doing enough in this regard.

Gallup said, “Rising violence and the government’s perceived ineffectiveness to quell it may be the impetus behind the erosion in Pakistanis’ general feelings of personal security. The percentage of Pakistanis saying they feel safe walking alone at night in the areas where they live has dropped measurably within the past year, from 50 percent in June 2007 to 41 percent in October 2008. Pakistanis’ confidence in their local police has also dropped precipitously. Now at 31 percent, Pakistanis’ confidence in their police has dropped 11 percentage points from 42 percent in 2007 and is the lowest Gallup has measured to date … This internal mandate to fight terrorism, rather than external pressure, may do more to secure the buy-in of the Pakistani people and enable the new civilian government to make good on its promises to eradicate terrorists inside Pakistan.”

Talibans Brutal acts against Muslims and Humanity.

مقامی طالبان نے لاش چوک میں لٹکا دی


	پیر سمیع کی لاش کو دن بھر لٹکانے کے بعد نامعلوم مقام پر دفنا دیا گیا: اہلکار

صوبہ سرحد کے شورش زدہ علاقہ سوات میں مقامی طالبان نے پیر کے روز پیر سمیع اللہ کی لاش کو قبر سے نکال کر ایک چوک میں لٹکانے کے بعد اسے نامعلوم مقام پر دفنا دیا ہے۔

سوات میڈیا سنٹر کے ایک اعلٰی اہلکار نے بی بی سی کو بتایا کہ گزشتہ روز مقامی عسکریت پسندوں نے پیر سمیع اللہ کی لاش قبر سے نکال کر گوالیرئی چوک میں لٹکا دی تھی۔

اہلکار کے مطابق دن بھرچوک پر لاش لٹکانے کے بعد شام کو عسکریت پسند اسے ایک نامعلوم مقام پر لے گئے اور منگل کو کسی نامعلوم مقام پر دفنا دیا۔

انہوں نے مزید کہا کہ پیر سمیع اللہ کے اسی ساتھیوں کو مقامی طالبان نے یرغمال بنا لیا ہے جبکہ پیر سمیع اللہ کے دو اہم ساتھیوں کو ذبح کر کے ان کی لاشوں کو بھی بجلی کے کھمبے سے لٹکا دیا تھا۔

انہوں نے کہا کہ مقامی طالبان نے ان کی لاش کو اس لیے نامعلوم مقام پر دفنا دیا ہے کہ ان کو خدشہ تھا کہ اگر ان کی قبر کی خبر لوگوں کو ہوگئی تو لوگ ان کی قبر پر حاضری دینگے۔

انہوں نے کہا کہ ان کو اطلاع ملی ہے کہ اسی قیدیوں میں سے چالیس کی رہائی آج یعنی منگل کو متوقع ہے۔

دوسری جانب مقامی صحافیوں نے مقامی طالبان کے حوالے سے کہا ہے کہ مقامی طالبان نے دھمکی دی ہے کہ یرغمال قیدیوں میں سے اٹھارہ ایسے ہیں جن کو قتل کیا جائے گا۔جبکہ باقی قیدیوں کی رہائی کا فیصلہ بعد میں کیا جائے گا۔

اس سلسلے میں مقامی طالبان سے رابطہ نہیں ہوسکا۔

یاد رہے کہ پیر سمیع اللہ دو دن قبل مقامی طالبان کے ساتھ ایک جھڑپ کے دوران ہلاک ہوگئے تھے۔ پیر سمیع اللہ سوات میں گوجر قبیلے سے تعلق رکھتے تھے اور ان کے مرید بھی زیادہ تر گوجر قبیلے کے ہی ہیں۔

مقامی لوگوں کے مطابق پیر سمیع اللہ کا تعلق بریلوی مسلک سے تھا۔

The acts by the Talibans are not only against the Humanity but also against the Laws Of Islam.

These events also shows the the hostility against other sects of Islam, Before that Talibans were only targeting Shias but now they are also targeting Barailvis.

حب الوطنی کی تعریف

میں اپنے آپ کو ایک محب وطن پاکستانی سمجھتا ہوں۔ اور اس کی وجہ یہ ہے کہ میں نے آج تک دانستہ طور پر کوئی ایسا کام نہیں کیا جس سے پاکستان کی ساکھ یا پاکستان کو نقصان پہنچے۔ میرے نزدیک محب وطن ہر وہ شخص ہے جو پاکستان کو ترقی کرتا دیکھنا چاہے اور اس میں اپنا کردار ادا کرے۔ اسی لیے میں اپنے حصے کا انکم ٹیکس پورا اور وقت پر دیتا ہوں، بجلی اور گیس چوری نہیں کرتا، کچی رسید پر چیزیں نہیں خریدتا۔ مختصراً میں ہر وہ کام کرتا ہوں جو ایک محب وطن پاکستانی کا فرض بنتا ہے۔

لیکن اب معلوم ہوا کہ پاکستانی حکام نے کچھ عرصہ قبل محب وطن کی تعریف جو بتائی ہے اس کے مطابق تو میں اس زمرے میں آتا ہی نہیں ہوں۔ جی اب حکام جو کہ پہلے قومی سلامتی کی تعریف وضع کرتے تھے وہ اب محب وطن کی تعریف بھی وضع کرتے ہیں۔

ممبئی حملوں کے بعد صحافیوں کو حال ہی میں دی گئی سکیورٹی بریفنگ میں سکیورٹی ایجنسیوں کے اہلکاروں نے تحریک طالبان پاکستان کے رہنما بیت اللہ محسود کو ایک محب وطن پاکستانی قرار دیا۔

اس کا اندازہ میں ہی لگا سکتا ہوں کہ میرے دل پر کیا گزری جب مجھے یہ معلوم ہوا کہ اس وضع کردہ تعریف کے مطابق تو میں دور دور تک محب وطن کے زمرے میں نہیں آتا۔

میں نے اپنی زندگی میں ایک ہی مرتبہ بندوق کو ہاتھ لگایا تھا۔ یہ طالب علمی کا زمانہ تھا جب ایف ایس سی کے دوران بیس نمبر لینے کی خاطر این سی سی کی تھی۔ جب بندوق سے مراسم اتنے محدود رہے تو یہ کہنے کی ضرورت نہیں کہ میں نے کبھی فوجیوں یا سکیورٹی اہلکاروں کو اغوا کرنے کا سوچا ہوگا۔ایسا سوچوں بھی تو کیوں؟ اپنا گزارا ہی مشکل سے ہوتا ہے ان کو کہاں سے کھلاؤں گا۔

میں نے کبھی اپنی سیر و تفریح کی ویڈیو نہیں بنائی تو سکیورٹی فورسز کی گاڑیوں کی تباہی اور گلے کاٹتے ہوئے کیا اور کیوں ویڈیو بناؤں گا۔ اللہ کا لاکھ لاکھ شکر ہے کہ کبھی کوئی ایسی حرکت نہیں کی کہ سکیورٹی فورسز تو دور کی بات کبھی پولیس کو آپریشن کرنا یا میرے گھر کا دروازہ بھی کھٹکانا پڑے۔ اس کے علاوہ کسی عدالت سے قتل کے الزام یا کسی اور مسئلے پر میرے نام کے وارنٹ بھی جاری نہیں ہوئے۔

چلیں یہ بھی برداشت کر لیا کہ میں حب الوطنی کی سرکاری تعریف پر پورا نہیں اترتا۔ لیکن یہ سوچنے پر مجبور ہوں کہ یہ تعریف تو ایک سرکاری ادارے کے مطابق ہے اور باقی سرکاری ادارے اس ضمن میں کون کون سی صلاحیتیں رکھنے والوں کو شمار کریں گے۔

میرے ذہن میں جو چند خوبیاں آ رہی ہیں ان میں چند یہ ہیں:
فیڈرل بورڈ آف ریوینیو کے بقول وہ جاگیردار، وڈیرے، سیاستدان یا کاروباری شخصیات جو ٹیکس پورا نہیں دیتے
سٹیٹ بینک آف پاکستان کے مطابق وہ جاگیردار، وڈیرے، سیاستدان یا کاروباری شخصیات جو بینک سے قرضہ لے کر معاف کراتے ہوں
حکومت پاکستان کے مطابق وہ صدور جو سرکاری خرچ پر دو سو دوستوں کو عمرے پر لے کر جاتے ہوں
عدلیہ کے مطابق وہ جسٹس صاحبان جو اپنے بیٹے کو نوکری دلوائیں یا اپنی بیٹی کو اضافی اکیس نمبر دے کر میڈیکل کالج میں داخلہ دلائیں

اگر کسی اور کے ذہن میں مزید خوبیاں آ رہی ہیں تو پلیز مجھے بھی بتائیں تاکہ میں ایک اچھا محب وطن بن سکوں۔

Pakistan 'linked to 75% of all UK terror plots', warns Gordon Brown

As the world is pointing fingers towards Pakistan for every terrorist plot, The Punjab and Punjabies of Pakistan are busy in defending Talibans their handlers and their financiers.
The whole world is now getting annoyed by Pakistani Policies, Now this is the time if the People running the State Affairs of Pakistan should take extreme action against these talibans and their supporters otherwise i am seeing the next Iraq and Afghanistan in Pakistan.

The British Prime Minister Warns that Pakistan 'linked to 75% of all UK terror plots.

The 7/7 London `Bombers were also from Punjab and burried in Faisalabad.

Read What British PM said .

Pakistan 'linked to 75% of all UK terror plots', warns Gordon Brown

Gordon Brown demanded "action, not words" from Pakistan yesterday, blaming Pakistani militants for last month's attack on Mumbai and revealing that three quarters of the gravest terror plots under investigation in the UK had links to Pakistan.

Winding up a two-day tour of Afghanistan, India and Pakistan, the Prime Minister urged Asif Ali Zardari, Pakistan's President, to "break the chain of terror" linking Islamist militants in Afghanistan and Pakistan to attempted terrorist attacks in Britain.

British military officials believe there are a "handful" of British militants fighting alongside the Taleban in Afghanistan, often entering the country through northern Pakistan, where al Qaeda and Taleban leaders are thought to be sheltering.

Officials also believe that there are currently around 30 major terrorist plots in the United Kingdom with 2,000 suspects being watched by police and the intelligence services.

"Three quarters of the most serious plots investigated by the British authorities have links to al-Qaeda in Pakistan," said Mr Brown in a press conference alongside Mr Zardari in the presidential palace in Islamabad. "The time has come for action, not words."

Speaking just a few hours after meeting Manmohan Singh, the Indian Prime Minister, in Delhi, Mr Brown also formally declared for the first time that Britain backs India's assertion that Lashkar-e-Taiba, a Pakistani militant group with links to Pakistan's military-run spy agency, carried out the Mumbai attack.

His remarks were clearly designed to heap pressure on Pakistan's civilian government to do more to crack down on militant groups in the wake of the Mumbai strike, which killed at least 170 people, including three British citizens.

The whirlwind trip was part of an international diplomatic effort, led by the United States, to prevent the Mumbai attacks from sparking a fourth war between India and Pakistan, which both have nuclear weapons.

Tensions between the two countries escalated briefly but dramatically on Saturday night when Pakistan accused Indian fighter jets of violating its airspace, causing delays on Mr Brown's flight from Kabul to Delhi. India denied any transgression.

At their meeting in Delhi yesterday morning, Mr Singh presented Mr Brown with a private list of "confidence building measures" that India wants Pakistan to agree to in order to stabilise relations.

Mr Brown also secured permission for British police to interview the only surviving militant from the Mumbai attack to investigate whether he has British connections.

Mr Singh gave the go-ahead for police and intelligence officials to speak to Mohammed Ajmal Amir Qasab, who has been undergoing "sustained interrogation" in a Mumbai jail since being captured on the first day of the attack.

The Prime Minister's meeting with his Indian counterpart was "sober" and dominated by the aftermath of the attacks, according to officials.

Afterwards, Mr Brown offered his sympathies to the Indian people. "I wanted to come to India to give my condolences and the whole Indian people at the terrible terrorist outrage in Mumbai that has shocked the world," he said.

Landing in Islamabad, Mr Brown made it clear he was in no doubt that LeT was responsible for the attacks, adding "they have a great deal to answer for".

Officials said he had been assured by British intelligence that LeT was responsible, despite denials from the group and claims by Pakistan authorities that they have been no evidence to that effect.

Western intelligence services are believed to have intercepted phone calls made by the Mumbai bombers to militants in Pakistan.

The Prime Minister offered an additional £6 million of assistance for security equipment for Pakistan, which has seen 50 suicide attacks this year compared to 7 in the previous year. "The aim must be to work together to do everything in our power to cut off terrorism," he said.

However he was rebuffed at the press conference by President Zardari, who refused to acknowledge Pakistani militants' involvement in the Mumbai attacks.

"They have still not completed their investigation. I'm hoping once the Indian government shares the information with us we will find whether there will be any culprits and will take action," the President said.

Pakistani officials admit that "non-state actors" in Pakistan may have been involved, but say they must tread carefully to prevent a backlash from the Pakistani public or from the powerful Inter-Services Intelligence agency, Pakistan's military-run spy organisation.

They also say they are growing increasingly frustrated that Indian authorities have yet to show them any evidence against the Pakistani militants they been under pressure to arrest.

Meanwhile, US and British security services have been anxious to get involved in India's investigation to gain potentially valuable intelligence and bolster the case against Pakistani militants.

Mr Brown believes that interviewing Mr Qasab, the captured militant, will send a signal that the Mumbai attack was a crime against the international community as well as India.

Mr Qasab is currently in Indian custody until December 24 facing charges including murder, attempted murder, waging war against a country and criminal conspiracy.

He has said he is from Pakistan and has written to the Pakistani authorities asking for legal assistance, according to Indian police.

British police and intelligence services have been gathering evidence about the attacks in Mumbai for the last fortnight. They can interview Mr Qasab even if they have no intention of bringing British charges because one British citizen and two people with dual nationality were killed in the attacks.

Intelligence services do not have specific evidence that Mr Qasab has British links, but believe he may be able to shed light on terror networks active in Britain.
