- FOR ABOUT A MONTH I HAVE BEEN ARGUING AND WARNING THAT PAKISTAN HAD BECOME THE CENTRAL FRONT OF WW4.
- I ARGUED THIS IN PART BECAUSE WE HAD DEFEATED THE JIHADIST ENEMY IN IRAQ, AND PAKISTAN REPRESENTED TO THE ENEMY THE NEXT BEST AND "RICHEST" TARGET; (THEY WANT NUKES).
WELL, THE WAR THERE IS ABOUT TO GO TO THE NEXT LEVEL. NYTIMES:
The Pakistani leader, Gen. Pervez Musharraf, declared a state of emergency about 6 p.m. local time today, Pakistani television reported.THIS SITUATION IS NOT A SURPRISE. PAKISTAN HAS HAD MILITARY RULE FOR MOST OF THE LAST 60 YEARS.
All members of the Supreme Court were required to sign a new provisional constitutional order mandating the state of emergency, but 8 of the 11 justices signed an order calling the state of emergency illegal and gathered at the Supreme Court building, said Gohar Khan.
The declaration came days before the Supreme Court was expected to rule on the constitutionality of General Musharraf's re-election as president last month and of his ability to serve as both the country's president and military leader.
Just after 5 p.m. signs that a state of emergency would be declared started to emerge. All television stations were blocked as news media were reporting a meeting of General Musharraf and his top aides in the president's office.
A Pakistani intelligence official said that a list had been prepared of prominent Pakistani journalists and opposition politicians who would be detained.
Before transmission was cut off, Pakistani media reported that 1,000 additional police had been deployed in Islamabad, the capital, but as of 5:30 no additional police could be seen. Groups of journalists had gathered in front of the country's Supreme Court in expectation that judges could be detained.
Government officials have said over the past several days that if a state of emergency were declared, they would not declare martial law.
A senior American commander, Adm. William J. Fallon, warned Pakistan’s president on Friday not to impose emergency rule, saying that doing so would jeopardize American financial support for the military here.
Admiral Fallon met here with the Pakistani leader, Gen. Pervez Musharraf, and his top generals to discuss a range of issues related to combating terrorism, including the Pakistani Army’s faltering efforts against Islamic militants sympathetic to the Taliban and Al Qaeda, diplomats said.
The long-planned visit was at an increasingly tense time. As the date approaches for the Supreme Court to rule on whether General Musharraf can continue as president, his aides have been spreading the word that the general is considering imposing emergency rule. The court’s ruling is expected next week. Diplomats said drafts of a provisional constitutional order allowing for emergency rule had been prepared.
Admiral Fallon’s warning underscored a flurry of appeals in the past few days by Western governments for General Musharraf to abandon plans for emergency rule, a Western diplomat said.
INDIA HASN'T - NOT ONCE.
WHY THE DIVERGENCE?
I THINK BECAUSE PAKISTAN IS MUSLIM, AND ISLAM IS A MARTIAL CREED.
- ISLAM WAS BORN IN TERROR AND GREW ONLY THROUGH TERROR, CONQUEST AND FORCED CONVERSIONS.
- ISLAM AND DEMOCRACY ARE TENUOUS PARTNERS EVERYWHERE, AND ONLY FLOURISHES WHERE ISLAM IS DIMINISHED.
- BIN LADEN KNOWS THIS, AND THAT'S WHY HIS DEFENSE OF ISLAMIC FUNDAMENTALISM REQUIRES THAT HE ATTACK DEMOCRACIES.
AS REPUGNANT AS A MILITARY JUNTA IN PAKISTAN IS, IT IS FAR BETTER THAN A JIHADIST GOVERNMENT. MUSHARRAF DESERVES AND NEEDS OUR SUPPORT.
- THIS IS STOP-GAP NECESSITY. NOT AN ULTIMATE SOLUTION.
THAT'S BECAUSE PERSONAL FREEDOM AND THE LITERAL KORAN ARE NOT-COMPATIBLE.
IF YOU WANT ONE, THEN YOU HAVE TO FIGHT AGAINST THE OTHER. A TEMPORARY LOSS OF SOME LIBERTY IN ORDER TO FIGHT JIHADISM IS BETTER THAN LOSING TO THE JIHADISTS - OR SURRENDERING TO THEM.
I posted on this just seconds after you.
ReplyDeleteI took my down, because yours is more complete. The only point I made that you didn't - explicityly - make here is that this suspension of constitutional powers is just temporary. Musharraf has done this before, and it has always been temporary.
Unfortunately every event regarding muslime world, any terrorist activity is being linked directly to Islam.Every one try to change the history without knowing any basic iformation about islam.Islam is complete religion gives guideline to every walk of life. according to Holy Quran,kill someone is equal to kill all humanity. Suicide bombers are not the product of islam they are socially, economically, phsycologically, tortured brainwash people who even dont know abt Islam educations,that how to react when any one make them deprive from basic human rights.Holy prophet Mohammad(peace be upon him) gave first time basic human right charter in his last speech to muslim gathering 1400 year ago. We need to stop suicide attackers but by changing the way. Why Israel not condemned for brutal bombing in lebenan? why india not stop violence in Kashmir?why bosnea? chechnea? afghanistan? IRaq are victoms of super power even this countries are not able to pay there citizens. billions of dollar spending to kill muslims instead can change the muslim world thought abt west. Be positive,do positive. never allow your inner hate to overcome the truth.
ReplyDeleteWHY IS THE SYMBOL OF ISLAM THE SWORD?
ReplyDeleteBECAUSE IT IS BASED ON JIHAD/VIOLENCE/TERROR - SUBMISSION THRU INTIMIDATION.
THE OTHER SYMBOL IS THE CRESCENT MOON - BECAUSE IT IS REALLY A PAGAN RELIGION WHICH WORSHIPS LAH - THE MOON GOD.
Rizwan,
ReplyDeleteThe examples that you cite prove the opposite of what you are trying to say.
When you mention Israel, India, Kashmir, Chechnya, Bosnia, and Afghanistan, you list only societies that have been torn apart and attacked by Islamist terrorists. The terrorists who are active in those regions call themselves Muslims and they themselves say that they are acting in conformity to Islamic law as they understand it.
It is not the Western powers who are killing Muslims in the world, it is primarily other Muslims. The United States intervened in Bosnia and Kosovo to protect Muslims and nurture the emergence of Muslim civil society in those areas of the former Yugoslavia. It is Islamist terrorists who are killing innocent Muslims in Iraq, in Afghanistan, in Pakistan, in India, in the Philippines, in Indonesia, in Lebanon, in Algeria, in Egypt, and in Israel.
Evidently your view of Islam differs from that expounded by Usama Bin Laden, Ayman Al Zawahiri, Hassan Nasrallah, Ahmed Yassin, Omar Abdel Rahman, and many other Sheikhs too numerous to name.
After you convince them that Islam is a religion of peace, maybe we in the West will begin to believe you.
Salaam!
Salaam,
ReplyDeleteIt is obviously clear from history that we can't blame any one side for all the curse.But it does'nt mean that a religion of one billion peoples become the cause of terror due to some worse individuals.like usama,aiman uz zahwary etc. According to history we know christians blamed to victimize the jewish community, it doesnt mean christan,s religion teach to kill jewish.Islam gives every right to non muslims, even In Quran God direct muslim not to demolish any type of place of worship of non-muslims,even direct to protect them.At the time(1947) of partition of india, kashmir believe to be included in Pakistand due to majority of muslims(90%) but india get posses it with his army. After that evasion india promised before(1948) U.N to give the kashmiris right of self determination. movement in kashmir is to get freedom from indian possesion. Israel was established on the holy place for all religions, but by depriving muslims from thier life and properties,IN history muslims gives every facility to jewish in return they are killing muslims kids. In bosnea thanks to UN but they came when already thousands of muslims killed.IF islam spread due to war then I ask India ruled under 1000 year of muslim government this period was enough to make whole india muslim with sword.???? Islamic rulers were in power 800 years in spain there is any islam right now???. Then what is the reason ISlam is spreading very fastly in America , europe and all over the world even every media efforting to hault islam.if Islam is sword then wht about crusades which were luanch against islam? I have Already said TRUTH cannot be changed because of our wrong belief.Islam is in danger,problem due to illiteracy / poverty / inequality and unjustice.If western world invest to educate,reduce the povery,rectify the unjustice to muslim rather than demolishing thier countries.this world become safe place . Thanks
terrorism is the global challenge,musharraf`s action of emergency will facilitate to fight against terrorism as well as the hidden supporters of terrorists among political parties,judiciary...
