On #499 (video of TSP actress Malik vs mullah/ummah):
Odd. I too recalled the recent mud-slinging match in the US on the secular Israeli-American Natalie Portman (in absentia). [Begs the question: as an ethnic Israeli, why is Portman beholden to the "moral" laws of the WASPCY christo/conservatives?] Anyway, the more relevant bit is: http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/263...stuttaford Quote:Veena Malik Plus the comments that seem to be sort of related to the above: Quote:Teacher Eek. Her saying those things she said about islam-as-it-is/mullahs on TV could well get her into some serious trouble. Or maybe she will be one of the fortunate ones, and escape the scimitar.

NINE : Safeguarding the status quo[/url] Sir: As long as the ruling elite classââ¬â¢ mindset is not changed, they will do everything to safeguard the status quo. [color="#FF0000"]This means that 75 percent of the population will remain illiterate, 40 percent will continue to live below the poverty line and 25 million children will remain out of school. How can one hope that after another 50 years Pakistan will be a developed country?[/color] Those who are now young will not be educated citizens in future if a plan is not made and implemented to ensure that all children attend school. Unfortunately, all those in a position of power to bring about a change are busy in safeguarding the status quo, including leaders of political parties and heads of state institutions and establishments. The question is why those who are protecting the status quo not realising that it is also in their own interest that every citizen achieves a minimum standard of quality life. Why are they so afraid of change? It is imperative to change the status quo prevailing in the country. It is also essential that all citizens have equal rights [color="#FF0000"]irrespective of their faith[/color] if we want Pakistan to emerge as a successful country. S T HUSSAIN Lahore Cheers

Pakistan ready for Middle East role By Syed Saleem Shahzad ISLAMABAD - With a broad Sunni Muslim bloc of countries lining up against an emerging Shi'ite crescent in the Middle East, Sunni-majority and nuclear-armed Pakistan could play an important - albeit somewhat reluctant - role. A step in this direction is Pakistan's decision to keep two army divisions on standby for deployment to Saudi Arabia in the event of trouble there. This followed a visit by Saudi Prince and secretary general of the National Security Council Prince Bandar Bin Sultan to Pakistan. Earlier, Pakistan's Fauji Foundation, an armed forces entity, organized the recruitment of over 1,000 ex-army personnel for service in Bahrain's National Guard. The small Persian Gulf state, which is headquarters to the United States 5th Fleet, is suppressing protests with the help of Saudi invasion forces. Bahrain's ruling elite is Sunni, although about 70% of the population is Shi'ite. ....
Its good that TSP gets involved in West Asia after all they claim to be Araps.

However, this risk has decreased from 21.4 percent in 2009 to 19.4 percent loans provided by ADB in 2010 are at risk. As against the commitment of $388.3 million in loans for Pakistan in 2010, the ADB disbursed $799.1 million in loans to the country in 2010. ADB has committed providing Pakistan loans worth $1.178 billion in 2009 and disbursements have been recorded at $1.093 billion in 2009. Loan disbursements to Pakistan have recorded a decrease of 26.9 percent in 2010 with total disbursement at $799.1 million as against the disbursement of $1.093 billion in 2009. ââ¬ÅADB provided co-financing loans worth $242.5 billion, grants $116.5 million and sovereign and non-sovereign grants $3 million to Pakistan in 2010,ââ¬Â the report added. ADB statement said that the bank approved $17.51 billion in financing operations last year, according to ADBââ¬â¢s 2010 annual report released ahead of the 44th annual meeting to be held from 3 to 6 May in Ha Noi, Vietnam. Of the total financing of $17.51 billion approved by the ADB, $15.50 billion was for investment support, $1.68 billion was for policy-based support, and $327 million was for technical assistance. In addition, ADBââ¬â¢s ongoing Trade Finance Programme supported $2.77 billion in trade. ââ¬ÅAs the region moves beyond economic recovery to sustained growth, it must ensure that the evolving growth paradigm becomes more inclusive to benefit as many people as possible,ââ¬Â ADB President Haruhiko Kuroda said in the report. According to an ADB study, 14 out of 20 developing Asian economies saw their Gini coefficient increase in recent years as economic growth accelerated. Cheers

[url="http://tribune.com.pk/story/152219/the-unflattering-perspective-part-i-the-us-does-not-care-about-pakistan/"][center][size="5"][color="#006400"]The unflattering perspective - Part I : ââ¬ËThe US does not care about Pakistanââ¬â¢[/color][/size][/center][/url] NEW YORK : Professor Noam Chomsky sits on the eighth floor of the quirky-looking Stata Center of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, US. Former head of the linguistics department, the author and intellectual now serves as Professor Emeritus at the university. The man is known worldwide for his incredibly popular and polarising criticism of American foreign policy. ââ¬ÅThe US doesnââ¬â¢t care about Pakistan, just like the Reagan administration didnââ¬â¢t care about either Afghanistan or Pakistan,ââ¬Â says Chomski, when asked how he sees the relationship between Pakistan and the US. ââ¬ÅThey supported Zia, the worst dictator in Pakistanââ¬â¢s history, and pretended they didnââ¬â¢t know that Pakistan was developing nuclear weapons. So basically they supported Pakistanââ¬â¢s nuclear weapon programme and radical Islamisation in their bid to defeat the Russians. And that has not helped Pakistan.ââ¬Â According to Chomsky, the reason the Pak-US relationship hasnââ¬â¢t worked is because the concern of US planners is not the welfare of Pakistan, itââ¬â¢s the welfare of their own constituency. ââ¬ÅBut itââ¬â¢s not the people of US either, just the powerful sectors within the US,ââ¬Â he said. ââ¬ÅIf the US policy towards Pakistan happens to benefit Pakistan it would be kind of accidental. Maybe it will to some extent, but that is not the purpose.ââ¬Â Chomsky believes Pakistan has serious internal problems but says there are solutions. But, he insists, these problems have to be solved from within instead of from outside. ââ¬ÅThese problems have to be dealt with inside Pakistan, and not by the US; providing them with massive military aid, carrying out drone strikes, which enrages the population rightly,ââ¬Â he says. ââ¬ÅDrone attacks are target assassinations and therefore a crime. Whether they are militants or not, these people are being targeted because the US doesnââ¬â¢t like them. Targeted assassination is an international crime. United Nationsââ¬â¢ special rapporteur Philip Alston, a very respected international lawyer, came out with a report which simply says that it is a criminal act.ââ¬Â He also supports the 1973 constitution and believes it is suitable for Pakistan. ââ¬ÅIt looks sensible on paper. It provided a degree of autonomy within a federalised system, which makes sense for a country like Pakistan,ââ¬Â he says. ââ¬ÅDevoting resources to education, development and not military will help.ââ¬Â Relationship with India Speaking about Pakistanââ¬â¢s relationship and outlook towards India, [color="#FF0000"]he said that the Pakistani military has a strategic doctrine that they have to have a military presence in Afghanistan to counter India. ââ¬ÅThatââ¬â¢s a losing proposition because Pakistan cannot compete with India in terms of military force. Besides, the strategic position in Afghanistan doesnââ¬â¢t really mean anything in case of a war,ââ¬Â[/color] he says. [color="#FF0000"]ââ¬ÅPakistan has undoubtedly supported terrorist groups in Kashmir and terrorism in India, which has made the situation worse.ââ¬Â[/color] The Americans are avoiding the Kashmir issue, he says, which is central to the resolution of conflict in South Asia. ââ¬ÅIndia has a very ugly record in Kashmir ââ¬â horrible atrocities, fraudulent elections, most militarised place in the world. You canââ¬â¢t just ignore it,ââ¬Â he says. US-India relations Professor Chomsky says that it is a ââ¬Åjokeââ¬Â when US talks about giving aid for civilian nuclear facilities in India. ââ¬ÅThe aid for the civilian nuclear use can be easily transferred to military use. By granting India the right to import US nuclear technology, it has not only allowed India to freely develop nuclear weapons, the US has also violated the nuclear non-proliferation treaty,ââ¬Â he says. Afghan warââ¬â¢s future ââ¬ÅIt is a complicated situation but I think there is good evidence that the US military and political structures recognise that they cannot have a military victory,ââ¬Â Chomsky says. However, he says, they [US] can conquer whatever they like, but the Russians also won every battle in the 1980s but eventually lost the war. ââ¬ÅThe Americans are therefore trying to find a way to extricate themselves in some fashion, that it can be presented as a victory. They donââ¬â¢t want to admit theyââ¬â¢ve lost the war, like the Russians.ââ¬Â Cheers
