I agree that nobody, but nobody, could have made a Blunder of the humungous proportions that MMS has made, however, I think that the Indians are doing their best with a "Damage Control Exercise" and Pakistan's inept Leadership will most definitely ensure a reasonable success for the Indians.

As far as Economy is concerned the latest Pakistani Figures are Heavily Fudged and the actual position is :

1. On June 17, 2008 International Investment Position of Pakistan 31-12-2007 was <b>USD 43.602 Billion</b>

2. On Feb 28, 2009 the figure for 31-12-2007 was "AMENDED" to <b>USD 50.883 Billion i.e. a Fudge of USD 7.281 Billion</b>

3. On July, 2009 I I P of Pakistan 31-12-2008 is <b>USD 70.189 Billion</b>

<b>I O W :</b> Over a Period of One Year Pakistan has "Frittered Away" USD 26.587 Billion - <b>nearly 16% of its GDP!</b> Hardly any new Industry has been added during this Period.

Where has the "Money" Gone?

I am sure that the Money has been spent on Defence Requirements and the Various Ten to Thirty "Per Centi" Leaders, Generals and Bureaucrats!

I have the above "Detailed" Account on Disk and if you require then I will EMail it to you.

<b>
Obama on Pakistan</b>
Published: July 26, 2009

PRESIDENT Obama's appreciation of Pakistan's role in the War on Terror would help reduce the trust deficit between the two countries. His observation that Pakistan Army is driving out the militants 'in a way we have not seen' is a proof of his understanding of the situation. It is a far cry from the threatening tone of the Bush regime and the noises his own administration had been making soon after he took office about the need to be tough on Pakistan, something that had fuelled a wave of anxiety within the country.

But Mr Obama would have to rein in the hawks within his administration, which if given a free hand will be pushing Pakistan to the edge. Consider, Special Envoy Richard Holbrooke who in a recent tour of the country asked the leadership to extend the operation throughout the Durand line and also in Balochistan. This would spell disaster for the country. Then there is the US Joint Chiefs of Staff who has expressed reservations about the role of the ISI in the fight against militancy, saying that the US was quite apprehensive about it. What is worse, the drone attacks continue to cause death and destruction in the tribal areas. Pakistani leadership has told the Americans time and again that these strikes are proving to be counterproductive, but there is no indication that they would stop.

A number of other issues where the US could have been of great help remains unadressed. The calls to equip Pakistan Army with modern weapons, including unmanned vehicle technology, have fallen on deaf ears. Likewise, the financial bailout package will not suffice in a situation where there are nearly three million internally displaced persons and an economy that is in a tailspin.
President Obama should follow up his acknowledgement of Pakistan's role with positive moves. Pakistan is in the vanguard of global struggle against terrorism and is also suffering because of the US war in Afghanistan.

<b>Mithadar building toll rises to 14</b>

KARACHI : <b>The death toll in Karachi building collapse rose to 14, as the rescue work is still in progress at the site in the Mithadar police limits late Friday night.</b>

The rescue operation was hindered tremendously, as lane, where building was located, was narrow.

A five-storey building located at Kamil street situated near Mithadar area of Karachi collapsed with a loud explosion late on Friday night killing three members of a family Jameela 50, her son Muhammad Ahmad 3, daughter Sadia 22, Salma 18 and another person Shoaib 24.

According to local residents, at least 20 families were dwelling at the ill-fated building. At least 50 people are feared to be still trapped under the rubble.

Fire brigade, rescue workers, Edhi Foundation volunteers, town administration and locals rushed to the site soon; but, narrow lane created hindrance in rescue operation. As the narrow streets were impassable for the City Government’s heavy machinery, the local people jump-started the relief and rescue activities on their own.

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin--><b>Manmohan deserves Nishaan-e-Pakistan</b>
pioneer.com
Swapan Dasgupta
Viewed from the perspective of India, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s latest peace overture to a recalcitrant Pakistan seems bewildering and a trifle misplaced. How, it is being legitimately asked, can you repose trust in a Pakistan that is unwilling to own up to its misdemeanours and, indeed, is content with the mollycoddling of extremist and terrorist forces? Just because Atal Bihari Vajpayee too was guilty of a similar misjudgement doesn’t necessarily justify its persistence.

Yet, it is important to realise that India’s desperate desire to give its difficult neighbour the benefit of doubt is not an isolated move prompted by some weakness of the national character. Pakistan, which was worsted after the 9/11 attacks and the <b>Anglo-American ‘war on terror’,</b> is on the verge of recovering lost ground and scoring a major foreign policy triumph. This is not because the M<b>anmohan Singh regime is weak and supine</b>. That is only a small part of the problem. The real advantage for Pakistan lies in the fact that an economically devastated West has lost the political resolve to persist with the war in Afghanistan. It is looking for ways to extricate itself from what is generally being regarded as a no-win situation. What India is doing is creating the conditions for an ignominious Anglo-American retreat from Afghanistan. Being nice to Pakistan is a part of India’s facilitation process.

The extent to which defeatism has overwhelmed the West is most evident in the hysterical British reaction to the death of 22 of its soldiers last month. The July toll may seem small by Indian standards — the Maoists have killed more policemen and para-military forces in Chhattisgarh in the same time frame — but in British eyes this is unacceptable. From the perspective of other European participants in the multi-national force it is even more so. The only German soldier who killed a Taliban insurgent had to be flown back home for trauma therapy and the legendary Luftwaffe has ceased all night operations because it is seen as too risky.

There was a naive belief in some European capitals that involvement in Afghanistan actually meant overseeing good works by social workers in the Provincial Reconstruction Teams. The soldiers, it was assumed, would keep a benign eye on things as earnest young do-gooders helped Afghans rebuild schools, practice gender equality and climb up the Human Development Index. When that romantic dream turned into a nightmare amid the harsh realities of Afghanistan, the inclination of European civil society has been to cut losses and run back home.

The Afghan war is without question an unpopular war. The Americans may want more boots on the ground and a few targeted operations, including the one with the menacing name Operation Panther’s Claw, but this is widely seen as a face-saving precursor to departure. Maybe the bases in Baghran and Kandahar may remain, but for all intents and purposes, the war on terror is drawing to a close without any sign of victory.

For Pakistan, this is fantastic news and it is doing its utmost to hasten the departure of the international forces. Having carefully helped the Taliban regroup after the debacle of 2001 and continue its low-intensity guerrilla war, Pakistan is now intent on projecting itself as the proverbial poacher-turned-gamekeeper. It has implored the West to outsource the pacification of Pushtuns to it. After all, no one is said to know the forbidding terrain around the Durand Line better than Pakistan. In return, Pakistan wants the West to create the conditions for its ‘approved’ intervention in Afghanistan.

Ideally, Pakistan has two demands. First, it wants the West to guarantee that the shift of military might from the eastern front with India to the western front will not involve India taking advantage of the situation. Second, Pakistan wants the West to realise that it would be difficult to manage the internal fallout of training its guns on the Taliban unless there is some ideological compensation, such as some recognition of Pakistan’s role in Kashmir. As of now, the West has merely impressed upon India the need to free Pakistani forces in the east so that it can join the main battle in the west. For India, this has meant lowering the temperature on Pakistan-sponsored terrorism directed against India. As of now, the West hasn’t really arm-twisted India on the Kashmir issue. But that is only a matter of time. New Delhi has already demonstrated its inclination to crawl when asked to bend.

The coming months are going to be crucial for Afghanistan. On the face of it, President Hamid Karzai seems set for a clear victory in next month’s presidential election. However, it is clear that both Pakistan and the so-called civil society groups in the West are betting on his ex-World Bank rival Ashraf Ghani as a wholesome alternative to Karzai. Ghani has the support of the anti-Karzai Pushtuns but lacks the incumbent’s ability to garner the votes of the minority communities linked to the erstwhile Northern Alliance.

The presidential election isn’t likely to be entirely free and fair. Given the troubled state of Afghanistan, it can hardly be so. Moreover, the democratic culture hasn’t really taken roots in Afghanistan. Any result that favours Karzai is likely to be strongly disputed by the Ghani camp and the scepticism is certain to be fuelled by both Pakistan and Western Governments anxious to leave Afghanistan to god and Pakistan. It is a possible man-made crisis over the election results that may well set the stage for Pakistan’s formal re-acquisition of its lost ‘strategic depth’.

By refusing to play hard ball in Egypt last month, Manmohan Singh thought he was trying to help the West get its act together in Pakistan. The consequences of his generosity may well be Pakistan’s victory in Afghanistan.<b> The Indian Prime Minister deserves a Nishaan-e-Pakistan award</b>.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Train across South Asia</b>
By Dr Ijaz Ahsan | Published: July 31, 2009


In an intriguing move, Indian authorities have suggested a trial railway link between Pakistan and Bangladesh through India and Nepal. Incidentally, before partition, someone had suggested a ten-mile wide corridor across India linking East and West Pakistan, but that of course was a quite hare-brained idea and no one took it seriously.
Relations between India and Pakistan have seen many ups and downs. One is told that before Ayub's 1965 war, young men used to go over from Lahore to Amritsar to see an odd movie. But the war created such antagonism that those neighbourly relations became a thing of the past. Incidentally, both the 1965 and 1971 wars were fought between the two countries when a military dictator was in charge over here. Even the 1999 Kargil misadventure was a brainchild of General Musharraf, although it can be debated how much Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif knew about it.
Many years ago I said to our younger generation how nice it would be if the two countries had cordial relations, so that like any other neighbouring countries we could take a train from Lahore to Calcutta or Madras, and they could go across Peshawar and Kabul. With one voice, each one said: "I don't want to go to India!" Yet I had not suggested that we leave next day; I had only expressed a desire that we had cordial relations with each other, so that we could do that if we wanted.
This set me thinking. We have many disputes, the waters of our rivers being by far the most important to my mind. But it is not just that. In each country a section of the establishment wishes to keep matters this way. It suits them that things remain as they are, else we would not need to spend half the country's budget on them. Our industrialists feel the same way; they fear being swamped by Indian goods. They do not consider the matter from the other side: if our system improved and we could reduce our cost of production to compete, we would have a market of a billion people with a large middle class for our goods.
