FT<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin--><b>Pir Zakori Sharif in China</b>
Writing an account of his visit to China in Jang, columnist Javed Chaudhry stated that in China women were running the markets while no children could be seen on account of Chinaâs one-child policy. In Sinkiang he was entertained by Pir Sahib Zakori Sharif in the Pakistani delegation who sang songs like chitta kukar baneray tay to give evidence of his great talent. In Sinkiang the Chinese were found to be aggressive businessmen who werenât always too honest but the Chinese slept at nine at night and woke up early morning. They ate moderately and were all slim around the waist. In contrast Pir Zakori Sharif did Pakistan proud by eating more than ten Chinese. His waistline could fill the room and you could make ten Chinese out of him.

<b>Indiaâs strategic blunder</b>
Writing in Jang Ikram Sehgal stated that Pak-Bangladesh relations had improved tremendously, with trade keeping pace with the emotion of friendship. It was no longer like 1971 which was now a part of the forgotten past. It would have suited India to have an East Pakistan hating West Pakistan but it made a strategic blunder by breaking Pakistan up.
<b>Who did Nishtar Park bombing?</b>
Columnist Hamid Mir wrote in Jang that Pakistanâs government was calling the April 11 Nishtar Park Karachi bombing the work of a suicide bomber so that a sectarian colour could be given to it. But the enemy could use a Muslim to do suicide bombing by paying him a lot of money. The enemy was India. When India did terrorism in Pakistan, we think it is sectarian, but when something happens in India everyone thinks it is jihadis or Pakistanâs ISI. It was time we thought of naming India. Yet the March 2005 suicide bombing of the Karachi American Consulate was the work of Al Qaeda. But in India there was suicide bombing of Ram Mandir in 2005, followed by cycle-bombings in Lahore, followed by explosions in New Delhi. In 2006 there was bombing in Benaras which was followed by the suicide bombing of Nishtar Park. But the bombing of Jama Masjid in New Delhi after that could not have been the work of Pakistan; that was India warning the Muslims of India.
<b>Musharraf was to be killed like Sadat</b>
According to the daily Pakistan Sunday magazine Umar Sheikh had conspired in 2001 to kill President Musharraf while the latter was taking a 23 March Pakistan Day salute in Islamabad like the Egyptian president Sadat. Umar Sheikh had collected the money by looting a bank in Bahawalpur and bought ammunition and explosives from an agent in Mansehra, the centre of ISI-supported jihad. But the plan backfired and Umar Sheikh was arrested in 2002. The same material was used in 2003 when Musharraf narrowly escaped an attempt on his life.
