Pakistan............again.

The East India Company use to de-legitimate Indian princely States before they were attacked by the company as corrupt, ineffective and thus unfit to govern themselves. The East India Company officials argued in their moral crusade that such conquered States required the effective expert benevolence of the Company directors to run them, accompanied as ever by fervent Victorian Christian evangelicalism.

The ground work for invasion was further laid by buying local generals such as Mir Jafar, and other important Public officials such as Mir Sadiq...........and in the case of the Punjab in 1849, it was a handful of men in the Sikh army and some civilian officials, so that the thoroughly modern Sikh army never offered a realistic resistance that would have been expected of it based on its fine reputation. Instead Sikhs after conquest, became the standard poster child dogs of the British Raj for more than 100 years. Indian subservience in the face of overt slights by the foreign occupying power......the disloyalty of a few men causing the endless suffering of millions of people under British colonial rule.

What of course in reality followed for many Indian States, under East India Company rule was total disaster......over taxation, $1,000 to $1500 billion worth of Indian assets transferred to the Rothschild financial empire in London. Overt misrule where ordinary Indians were subjected to humiliation by East India soldiers and officials alike, and finally gross mismanagement which eventually resulted in the death of possibly 30 million Indians between 1757---1947.

The disloyalty of a few Mir Jafar's causing the suffering of millions. The disloyalty of a few Mir Jafar's causing shame and humiliation on the people of South Asia.

There is now a new East India Company at India's gate, already well established in Afghanistan with 160,000 Western troops backed by 200,000 mercenaries projected for the near future. They are not there to fight 10,000 ak-47 armed Taliban, but to attack and occupy Pakistan.........Baluchistan first, and then parts of the NWFP, aided by 400,000 Afghans and the 1,100,000 Pakistani security forces................this sounds amazing doesn't it?.........but this what is happening now slowly.

If Iraq and Afghanistan are good indication, the occupation of Pakistan will not be a very happy one producing millions of refugees into India presumably, millions more dead and poor corrupt governance by the occupying powers as with Afghanistan and Iraq now.............according to Transparency International amongst the two worst managed states.

Clearly without being ideological, common sense stares at us and tells us NO GOOD outcomes result from Pakistan's co-operation with the USA. It is harming Pakistan at many levels. Further to reinforce this fact:

(1) The stark examples of Iraq and Afghanistan exist, if we require further evidence and reinforcement to quench our doubt. The glitter, allure, dollar and yes military strength of the USA can "confuse" and "deceive" sometimes the best of us in not seeing the clear truth.

(2) And we can look at Pakistan/American relations since 1965 in further clearing our doubts. The destabilization of the Ayub Khan regime whilst pretending to be his ally by the USA; The arms embargo against Pakistan in 1965 by the USA; The posturing and pretense of seeming to protect Pakistan militarily with REAL arms aid in the 1971 civil war, AND by implication backed by American military might, but in reality when it came to the crunch green lighting India's invasion of East Pakistan as stated by official records; Single highhandedly launching a crusade against Pakistan's nuclear program........by toppling democratically elected governments in 1977, and then killing senior military officers later; the renewed embargo of 1990; The advice by them to create the "al-Qaeda" myth, and the Taliban in the 1990's......and then pulling the rug under Pakistan unceremoniously in 2001 in relation to these two entities; the repeated insistence to do more and more against fighting terrorism....beyond the limited means of the Pakistan military 2002---2010; the toppling of Busharaf by the USA.....and finally the vilification of Pakistan as terrorism hub number one by the USA; so called terrorist organizations within Pakistan which in large part the USA actively, physically, participated jointly with Pakistan in creating in the first place from 1979 through to 2010.....with extensive Saudi and Israeli assistance.

But now they make open threats against Pakistan, the main victim of American mischief......over 45 years and more.

The rich irony comes full circle now.

The USA toppled and killed ZA Bhutto. The USA mistakenly thought he was the main personality behind Pakistan's nuclear bomb program.....in reality, it was the Pakistan military. By toppling and killing him they thought they would end the program.........they didn't succeed.

Mossad Busharaf like all American puppets became an irritant to the USA for whatever whimsical reason........and they decided to get rid of him from 2007. Perhaps they calculated that a civilian government led by wholly corrupt Zardari would be more amenable to their hostile occupational strategy in Pakistan eventually.

Benazir Bhutto became the weapon which was used to topple Musharaf. Benazir Bhutto was not liked by powerful Pakistani elements, and against her better judgment was advised mischievously by the Americans to go to Pakistan, despite repeated warnings from Musharaf not to come..........she was a polarizing figure from the Zamindari colonial era class of Pakistan educated at Oxford, a total failure as PM in two terms of office and hated with a vengeance by right-wing elements who didn't like her because she was a woman, advertising herself as a sellout puppet of Washington being parachuted into the country at a critical time. Benazir indicated in her private correspondence that certain military and ex-military figures had threatened her, and that in all probability it is this group which killed her, working with the ISI.

Now the UN report into the Benazir Bhutto assassination damns possibly the entire Pakistani elite for the misdeeds of a few men in security, ultimately encouraged in a calculated way by the USA from the background.

THE FURTHER EAST INDIA COMPANY STYLE DE-LEGITIMATION OF PAKISTAN CONTINUES.

The Bhutto Report: The 40 years ongoing de-legitimation of Pakistan by the USA.

By Safqat Mahmood at Jang Newspaper.

The drone attacks in the tribal areas have picked up since the Faisal Shahzad episode, as has the rhetoric from the United States. Attorney General Holder found a Pakistani Taliban link and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton talked of severe consequences had the attack materialised.

(The staged event in 9/11 Noo Yawk very recently was very timely against Pakistan, and as previously suggested in this article is most likely the work of Israel.......and the wider historical explanation is provided why Israel did it. Israel's goal has been to get at Pakistan's nuke bombs since the 1970's, and this effort has manifested itself variously through the USA, through India from the 1980's through to 26/11 more recently which was ultimately meant to get India to militarily attack Pakistan, and directly with Pakistan by building intimate sexual relations with the ISI. (Musharaf may have been recruited early in the 1980's as a Mossad agent)

In that sense the Americans are bit fronts/players in an Israeli game which through this latest incident in Jew Noo Yawk is intended to put pressure on the Pakistani military to EXPEND/EXHAUST the Pakistani military's resources and manpower fighting her own citizens in an endless Sisyphean task, so that when America does finally attack Pakistan conventionally..........lets say in pursuit of the Taliban Afghan Shura in Quetta, the Pakistani military will not be in a position to put up any meaningful resistance in that eventuality.........Ullooo Bacha Chaudis)

These statements were tempered by the US military that, playing the good cop, praised Pakistan for its vital role in the Afghan conflict. Ambassador Holbrooke also tried to fudge the issue by suggesting that Clinton’s statement had been misinterpreted.

(No misinterpretation by crypto-Jewess Clinton, she indeed spoke the truth, intended to signal to Israel what America would for that country {The Israelis like a little spoiled insecure girl do prefer a lot of verbal public affirmations from her allies "aren't you pretty" "Israel's war is our war" "Israel is our dearest ally"etc}.....and the top American military brass perhaps ashamed by the duplicity towards an ally which is already foolishly aiding and abetting in the killing of her own citizens in Pakistan, attempted to ameliorate the verbal threat...."Oh don't worry, nothin to fuss about..only a lone nut".......undercut by the arrest of many others in the USA and in Pakistan as suspects. American military commanders must also be aware that this latest incident could not have been a Pakistani operation, working allegedly with the American run TTP which was birthed initially using the numerous Afghan ex-Guantanamo inmates who had been turned after 2005)

Whatever the real nature of the signals emanating from the US, one thing is clear. The botched Times Square bombing have reinforced negative perceptions in the West about Pakistan. Coming on the heels of the media hype in India after Ajmal Kasab’s conviction, it puts not just a few criminals but the entire country in the dock.

(Threats like that should not be taken lightly, by such a person. Just imagine America talking like that to North Korea, or Iran or Russia. Crypto-Jewess Clinton meant what she said and carry's more weight than what Holbrooke/Patreaus later tried to explain away.........she has strong links to American intelligence and the neo-liberal wing of the American cryto-Jewish fraternity of the Rockefeller's/Soros and the all the rest. What she says matters not just because she is the Secretary of State. If however President Barry Soetoro had intervened immediately and clarified matters than that would have been different.

Casting malicious aspersion's on an adversary is not historically a new phenomenon. However the individual or the collective who is the victim of such false malicious aspersions have the free will to deny such things to his potential adversary........vigorously through actions, deeds, verbal communication, behaviour and ASSOCIATIONS, at an individual and collective level.

Since the 1970's and especially after 1979, the Pakistani military with American blessing and funding began arming training recruiting Islamic fundamentalists of the more fervent kind, additionally backed by Saudi Gulf money and active Israeli participation in Pakistan.........against the Godless Soviet menace, primarily. The Pakistani military overjoyed with the apparent success of such a scheme also created internal proxy groups of a similar kind to reinforce the writ of the Pakistani military within Pakistan, and also as a tool against India in Kashmir from 1989, once the Soviets were defeated in Afghanistan.

There are 200 countries in the world, and most countries "securities" operate off the books paramilitary groups for various purposes.....in South America, Europe, Africa, Asia and Australasia. Pakistan in that sense is not doing anything different. However the sheer volume of such groups, the subsequent media attention which is directed and finally the association of the Pakistani military with Israel and the USA makes the Pakistani situation far more dangerous, and publicity prone.

The Pakistani military since 1965 have had ample WARNINGS of what it means to be an Israeli/American ally and a Muslim country. The Americans have made repeated threats AGAINST Pakistan from the 1970's; In the latter part of the 1980's; in the 1990's when the new Clinton administration called Ms Lodhi the Pakistan ambassador to the USA and told her that Pakistan would be henceforth designated a terrorist state from 1993, UNLESS Pakistan cooperated with America {Create the Taliban 1994} which Benazir Bhutto did with the backing of the Pakistani military.

With such a rich experience of repeated threats from the USA over 45 years shouldn't the Pakistani military, the most powerful group in Pakistan today have taken proper safety measures and precautions against the Americans in the timely eventuality of the USA doing the dirty against Pakistan yet again.

Safety measures????? Simple things:

(1) Reduce your reliance on the USA. Stop listening to and cooperating with yet more dangerous security schemes emanating from the USA. Let the Pakistani parliament and general Pakistani people have greater scrutiny of the Pakistani military's off the books security agreements with the USA........take them into confidence. STAND WITH THE PAKISTAN PEOPLE, united.

(2) Conversely increase your cooperation with India, beyond nice chats and gesture politics, both within the framework of SAARC and bilaterally.

(3) Accept the LoC as an International boundary, negotiate for permanent peace.

(4) Disband the internal jihadi groups seriously, and arrest their leaders.

(5) Tell the Taliban Shura in Quetta to leave Pakistan.

It is no irony or coincidence that the fireworks non-bomber in Joo Noo Yawk, is the son of a senior Pakistani military officer who retired, and sent his sons to live and work in North America. Faisal Shahzad seems the perfect patsy....someone the intelligence agencies befriend and then betray. In that allegorical sense the Pakistani military have been for the better part of 40 years REPEAT Patsy's who never learn.

Those in Pakistan always looking for a conspiracy are having a field day. Their prognosis is that ground is being prepared for an invasion. These dire predictions have been reinforced by veiled suggestions from the US that American ground forces may indeed penetrate into this country.

While this seems unlikely, the propaganda unleashed against Pakistan is a cause for alarm. Recent history of Western (USA lead)incursions into Afghanistan and Iraq indicates that negative reports about these countries were used as a basis to seek UN Security Council resolutions to justify an invasion.

(As with Mullah Iran......and so with Pakistan. Bush did say to Blair in their January 2003 meeting that Iran and Pakistan would be invaded eventually, after Iraq.

This did not materialize because of the stiffness of the Iraqi resistance mainly which has accounted for the lives of 70,000 American servicemen unofficially, and which further forced the Americans to bribe certain Sunni Iraqis.......but one assumes the plans to invade Pakistan eventually still exists. Iran is proving difficult because it has allies such as Syria and to an extent Russia and Turkey...............but Pakistan......who is Pakistan's friendly protector........Israel and the USA????)

In this day and age, international approval for an invasion by a super power is necessary (Ha! earth calling Safqat Mahmood where have we been in the last couple years? Definitely not in Iraq's case....where a mishmash of Israeli created false conjecture was fed to the American public and media as a justification for invasion). This is facilitated if there is enough negative material to paint the target country black. Or, even better, if there is a report by a recognised international body that has prima facie authenticity.

(Now Mahmood Saab, I know a good deal of Pakistani journalists are on the pay of the Americans using buzzword and stock phrases lifted from their manuals..."Those in Pakistan always looking for a conspiracy are having a field day".......you're not another bearded Saleem Shahzad are ya, repeating the "al-Qaeda" bullshit or another Ahmed Rashid? If you ain't fucking noticed Pakistani civilians are being killed daily by American drones.............in military parlance in war this is known as probing attacks to see the reaction of your adversary, before the actual attack. Then you have the terrorist ops in Pakistan by the TTP which America created and directs, AND finally 160,000 Western troops backed by 200,000 mercenaries soon in Afghanistan.........now I have a secret to share with you............these 360,000 Western gora forces are not there purely to deal with and fight the 10,000 strong Taliban militia equipped with AK-47's.)

It is in this context that the report by the UN Commission on Benazir Bhutto’s murder becomes relevant to Pakistan’s current predicament. It accuses Pakistani state organs, or elements within, of having links with the Taliban and Al Qaeda. It suggests they were used by the Pakistani “Establishment” for assisting insurgency in Indian-held Kashmir. And it alleges a connection between organisations involved in cross border terrorism and Pakistani intelligence.

(Yes and its mainly true.........but the UN report also fails to mention the critical American driving role in all this mess since God knows...where does one start 1951??? 1958??? 1965???? 1977????.

Pakistani military elements are linked to "al-Qaeda" in the sense that since OBL came to Pakistan/Afghanistan in 1996, the Pakistani state has protected him, at the request of the Americans for whom he was their agent, named Tim Osman unto his death in December 2001, and the Pakistani military's total silence as to this critical fact when the Israeli/Americans since 2003 produced fake videos of OBL......the Pakistani military have played a critical role for America in creating the 'al-Qaeda' hologram, and have for some strange reason remained faithful to this dangerous hologram. Even to the point of stating that many "al-Qaeda" members are in Pakistan, whom Pakistan will faithfully pursue..........the Ullooo Bacha Chudis think the Israelis/Americans will be grateful and give Pakistan 1 or 2 more fourth generation F-16 fighters at $180 million each.......and other such worthless reciprocity.

As to the linkages of the Afghan Taliban with the Pakistan military everybody knows about it. Pakistan military personnel fought side by side with the Afghan Taliban, provided them with logistics, training and leadership in some cases..............at the insistence of the Americans and Sandy Berger from 1994. Those linkages still exist though not to the level of enthusiasm and extent of the 1990's. ......so, whats the problem? The Taliban didn't kill Bhutto.

Again open knowledge that after 1989, Pakistan diverted some of the Afghan Jihadi Mujaheddin into Kashmir against India.........which almost led to war in 1990. I do not say this is right and acceptable, but is the UN conducting a real investigation as to who actually murdered Benazir Bhutto, or a GENERAL VILIFICATION of Pakistan as a legitimate Third World state which faces many "challenges" just like many other Developing countries?

If the later for the USA/Israel, then they should have given me the money instead and responsibility since I am quite a qualified person with a fair knowledge of the country, and fully independent, with a measure of concern and compassion for Third World issues and security matters along with International Human Rights issues. I would have written the report in a week, and it would have gone something like this:

"Pakistan failed state created by the departing UK, to reduce India's potential strength, ...who then in 1948 created the ISI, which then quickly went into work to take over Pakistan......has along this agenda attacked India 4 times, with 2 near wars. Since the 1950's the USA became prominent in Pakistani politics with disasterous consequences.........Pakistan has 180 million people, and the future looks bleak."

Though the Commission’s terms of reference were narrowly defined–to determine facts and circumstances of the assassination–it chose to go far beyond that. In a style reminiscent of investigative journalism, it went into Pakistan’s history, its political culture, the role of the establishment, and drew conclusions without substantiating anything. It did not indicate who was interviewed, what method of inquiry it had devised for itself and why it came to certain determinations.

(Similar pattern to the UN investigation into the Rafic Hariri assassination by Israel, which eventually forced Syria to withdraw troops from Lebanon, or face an attack from Israel and the USA.......extremely instructive in Pakistan's case in terms of the MO used by Israel with America in that episode in 2005)

These were serious lapses, as pointed out by leading lawyer Ahmer Bilal Sufi in a TV interview with Talat Hussain. The Commission was akin to a court of inquiry and its conclusions amounted to a judgement. Anything that it said had to be substantiated and backed by testimony. It did not have the luxury of vague hypothesis or veiled allusions.

(The UN is headquartered in Noo Yawk; America created it, pays the bills and sustains it..............deafly silent on USA War crimes in Iraq, and Afghanistan...what did you expect?)

It is important to remember that it is one thing for charges to fly to and fro in Pakistan about the establishment. Ever since the military became involved in politics, this has become an essential part of the Pakistani political lexicon.

(For good reason-------the Pakistani military is a disaster for Pakistan, but so long as there is Democracy in Pakistan the Americans will have to creep into the country to invade and occupy it....with a dictatorship the old legitimacy issue comes to the fore, and the Americans can then attack the country more directly.)

But this report of the UN Commission is not for the Pakistani government or a part of the Pakistani political give-and-take. It has been submitted to the UN secretary general and is part of the Security Council archives. Any determinations that it has made can and will be used against Pakistan if and when the time is ripe. It may not be now, because the US needs Pakistan. But this could change.

(Does the USA need Pakistan? I don't think so, for what? However this "need" excuse and dependency of Pakistan to the USA can be/is used by the USA to guide Pakistan into the wrong path and eventual dissolution.........getting the Pakistan military to fight and kill her own citizens, now that's a quite a neat trick, which additionally exhausts the fighting ability of the Pakistan military)

It would also be important to remember that before the US invasion of Iraq a team of UN inspectors had been sent in to find out whether the country had an active nuclear programme. Their report was to be used for a Security Council resolution that would authorise an invasion. In the end, it did not come to that because the Inspectors were expelled by Iraq. But this in itself became a pretext.

Thus, UN reports are not some run-of-the mill documents. They are like a ticking bomb that can explode when the time is ripe. It is for this reason that the conclusions drawn by the Commission are so potentially damaging for Pakistan.

It first defines the establishment as the military high command and the intelligence agencies, plus leaders of some political parties, top bureaucrats and business people. In other words, the entire slice of the Pakistani ruling elite. It then accuses it of a variety of crimes.

(BUT SO TRUE Mahmood Saab.......where have you been? The Pakistani military is one of the worst militaries on earth which has a history of waging vicious nasty wars against its own people in East Pakistan 1971, Baluchistan 1973-1978 and now NWFP 2003--2010, or are you going to tell me that such events are none- existent?

The Ulloo Bacha Chaudis of the Pakistan military need to be burned alive, without any Islamic burial, especially the top brass, and their ashes spread throughout the USA and possibly Israel......they can choose........... they are no good, never have been...........

Assfuck Kiyani, at his dishonorable discharge ceremony (Drumming out)........slowly his medals and insignia stripped from him on national TV, and then his full uniform........then the question with just his Armani undies and white Korean vest on......by a upright honest Jawan from Landi Kotal who doesn't look like a chain smoking Chamar whose been up to no good :

"Acha sala Kuta, where? Israel or USA"

Assfuck Kiyani replies, by now on his knees: "Please please please, it wasn't my fault, the Corps commanders forced me, the Americans threatened me......you understand, don't you? I didn't take any $ bribes.....ALL my children are educated in Pakistani state schools. Please bury me in Manghot village, Gujar Khan"

The upright Jawan from Landi Kotal in charge of the Drumming out ceremony replies with controlled rage, "Sala Pudi kuta gora Chamcha you don't deserve it, what were you doing when ordinary Pakistani civilians were being killed by American drones.........you who was in charge of the ISI, with ALL its secrets and dirty work, and later as head of the military, regularly meeting with American commanders, all smiles and joy at meeting eternal friends?"

"For you your ashes, after execution will be spread in Israel"

HOWEVER IN MITIGATION One could argue that witless children of weak mind and character have a tendency to go astray and do things they ought not do, but for the mischevious guidance and direction of government officers from the USA and UK............then on this basis only maybe we should not blame the Pakistani elite.....but then again aren't we responsible for our actions as adults, even as Third World banana Republic adults?)

In the case of Benazir Bhutto murder, it says: “Many sources interviewed by the Commission believe that the Establishment was threatened by the possibility of Ms Bhutto’s return to high public office and that it was involved in or bears some responsibility for her assassination.”

(Some elements of the Pakistan military bears direct responsibility for that high crime...........the extremist Jihadi elements such as Hamid Gul et al which she intimated in letters to her close friends; its tough being a women politician in Pakistan)

Talking about the Taliban connection, it says that “these elements (within the military) included, in particular, those who retain links with radical Islamists, especially the militant jihadi and Taliban groups and are sympathetic to their cause, or view them as strategic assets for asserting Pakistan’s role in the region.”

And on cross-border terrorist organisations: “The Pakistani military and ISI also used and supported some of these groups (Punjab-based jihadi organisations) in the Kashmir insurgency after 1989. The bulk of the anti-Indian activity was and still remains the work of groups such as Lashkar-e-Taiba, which has close ties with the ISI.” This last assertion is damning in the context of the Mumbai massacre.

No concrete evidence has, of course, been adduced to support these conclusions. These assertions are the normal stuff of hearsay that is prevalent in the media. but not enough for a UN commission report. As A G Noorani has observed in his article for the Frontline magazine in India, “the issue is not whether the assessments, the conjectures, ‘the hypotheses,’ and the homilies are sound or not. The issue is starkly simple. Such passages do not belong to the report of a UN inquiry, let alone one on a murder.”

(I think the overt actions of the Pakistan military over the last 30 years at least make it easy for the UN investigators to make such assertions ..........technically the report may be at fault, for how do really get into the Byzantine world of Pakistan covert actions and ties between the shadowy slippery all pervasive military in Pakistan society and their linkages with Jihadis........difficult unless you have a professional Pakistani reporter willing to risk their career for one UN report and so that they could do an extensive investigation ....NOT.........Benazir herself left enough clues as to her actual assailants)

I will not go into the reasons why Mr Zardari was insistent on a UN Commission to investigate the assassination. Whether this was done deliberately to malign the military or not is a topic for another discussion. What concerns me is the time bomb ticking in UN Security Council archives. Are we going to let it remain there without a challenge?

There is only one answer. We cannot. The government has to write a strongly worded rejoinder to the conclusions drawn by the Commission regarding Pakistani state institutions. Whether any reply is received or not, whether the report is amended or not, we must place on record our objections. This is the only way to protect Pakistan’s national interest.

If this is not done, the government will be complicit in jeopardising Pakistan’s future.

(The Pakistan military HAS BEEN Complicit in the destruction of Pakistan since the 1950's..what are you talking about?)
