Kashmir being one of the longest dispute, unsolved standing from 20th century till today, nobody knows how many millions of peoples being killed, parallized, prisoned by the indian forces which we called "indian millitary terrorism".
Several initiatives from pakistan and india had been taken after 2001 massive army deployment on both sides of the borders which were going towards the nuclear war in the subcontinent. But due to international players involvment and diplomatic efforts from both side lead agreement to maintain a ceasefire. confidence building measures like Bus service, trading, cultural relation etc were introduce with aim that both countries will mobalize their people for some options to solution of kashmir issue. In this regard ex president of pakistan pervez musharraf had taken some unpopular steps to show his seriousness to resolve kashmir issue. pakistan withdraw its support to kashmiri freedom fighters and cease the border to stop the movement of mujahideen, an initiative of a crake dawn against all the active groups in pakistan, Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf were even agreed to give up its claim on Kashmir in a proposals, including a withdrawal of troops from kashimr, self-governance system, with no changes in the borders of Kashmir, and a joint supervision mechanism involving India BBC News. But its look tarrifying when we analyse today our current policy & position on kashmir issue. How can we make a single bold policy in the interest of pakistan when we are continues involved in US War against terrorism(Against pakistan)? that should be called US War Against Muslims Values & Faith.
Latest updates coming from occupied Kashmir is that leaders of the All Parties Hurriyet Conference and activist are motivating kashmiri peoples to standup and came out to make the struggle succeed, they are urging to participate in the October 6 Lal Chowk March. Large number of Indian soldiers committing sui-side aslike we saw soldiers fighting in afghanistan and Iraq are committing sui-side because they know what part they had played in evilness and brutal killing of innocent peoples for the name of terrorism. According to kashmir media service organisation such deaths among the indian soldiers raise to 116 since January 2007. Indian troops start martyring innocent youth of kashmir once again on the large scale to subvert the strong resistance, No one to stop indian millitary terrorism?

Peoples of india and pakistan are looking curious to know the updates of what is coming and decisions taken in the call for APC (All parties conference) by both nations. India this time looking to send some strong message to pakistan on its border or india will look to take the services of those elements being giving serving to stronghold the interest of global powers in this region.
Another important development which were pointed out by many defence experts many times in the past is india-israil relation, Before Mumbai attacks Indian National Congress trys not to go in any relation which could send bad message to INC muslim members. Diplomatic relations between india and israil were officially established in after 90's during Indian National Congress tenure, but this newly relation were at peak when the nationalist BJP party formed their government from 1998 to 2004. Prime minister of israil at that time Ariel Sharon also visited india in 2003 during BJP period.
On the other side global powers knows how worst it will be if pakistan decide to stop fighting US war in this region. it will end with complete vanishing of US roll in this region and possibly the end of unipoloar world, thats also the answer of all the blaims and conspiracies against pakistan started from 9/11 to mumbaii attack. Nation of pakistan should realise the importance of only muslim nuclear power state, but as a state came by the name of Allah and the promise we made to stablish the law of quran and sunnah.
The worst thing is that we muslims have coward leaders, puppet governments, organisations running to safeguard the interest of global powers, nationalist parties with the task to divide muslims by the name of color, cast and sectors.
No matter what more we try to do to be an american ally, no matter when we analyse the game plan of zionist in this region. Quran rightly guided us about disbelievers and they will not stop of their evilness. And sooner the definition of terrorism and terror will be change which were given by global terrorist(america,uk & israil )to put shadow on their evil deeds and blood shading of inoccent muslims.

Peoples being urging to musharraf to quit his appearance and interferance in the political system of pakistan as peoples of pakistan dont want to see a dictator's role any more. Institutions like Judiciary, Media, Political system are badly disturb and civil society keep condemning Musharraf role.
A retired military men gathered at Islamabad appeal to President Musharraf to hand over power to deposed Chief Justice Iftikhar Ch. and leave the stage. They also decided to participate in the protest for independant judiciary along side with civil society and lawyers.
One after another Crisis were seen in the couple of days. No control on prices of flour in the country, Gas Shortage in my cities of the country, Electricity is unavailable in winter and nobody knows the planning for summer season.
Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) President Aitzaz Ahsan before his house arrest Addresses the general house meeting of the Lahore High Court Bar Association on Friday, Aitzaz said terrorism would reduce “by 80 percent” if Musharraf quit.
The Human Rights Watch (HRW) , Musharraf has tilted the electoral playing field by rewriting the constitution and firing the independent judiciary in that country, they also critisize the US and the UK for refusing to condition assistance to the Pakistan Government on improving pre-electoral conditions and for ignoring undemocratic acts by Musharraf because of his support for the "war on terror", the Dawn reported.

The issue of militancy and the Taliban continues to be framed erroneously — most recently as a variant of the “with us or against us” choice: either one supports the military operation in Swat and Fata or one is supportive of the Taliban. Just as the Bush choice has been largely responsible for the chaos and radicalisation in the Muslim world, so the Pakistani variant doing the rounds currently misses the real issue. After all, there is and always has been a consensus in Pakistan that militant extremism should be crushed and the writ of the state and government established.

The disagreement is over how to go about achieving this objective. Should there be an attempt to go to the root causes of militancy and then to resolve the issue through a multi-pronged strategy including dialogue backed by state power as well as policies to bring in the marginalised population by giving them a viable stake in the system? Or does the solution lie in simply unleashing indiscriminate military force to establish the writ of the state while the roots of the problem continue to fester?

Having just returned from a visit to the US organised by the Pakistani community to raise money for Shaukat Khanum Hospital, as a result of meetings arranged by the community I had the opportunity to meet with Senator John Kerry and Congressman Gary Ackerman, both influential players in the context of our region. I was surprised to find both quite open to rethinking their present Afghan strategy. In fact, they have realised that the continuation of the military-centric Bush approach has failed and new options must be examined. There is, therefore, a need to engage with those in the US seeking more viable alternatives for this region as well as with members of the Obama administration. A meaningful engagement can be done through sending a delegation of experts who understand the tribal areas and Afghanistan - not simply the self-anointed “experts” — referred to by one analyst as “native Pakistani informer(s) — who speak what the traditionalists in the US want to hear. I am convinced that a powerful presentation can be made about the need for a US exit strategy from Afghanistan and I believe the Obama Administration can be made to see the following points:

* It is costing the $60 billion a year and costs will go up with the surge - and with no guarantee of a turnaround. Simply sending more troops into a multidimensional conflict will not turn the tide in one’s favour.

* The longer this war goes on, the more chances of a radical takeover in Afghanistan and the greater the threat of radicalisation amongst the Muslim youth. These youth, especially in the Western countries, pose a greater danger to these countries including the US than al-Qaeda.

* The situation in Afghanistan has been moving in favour of the Taliban and deteriorating for Nato and US forces since the past few years.

The question is why our government does not realise that there has to be a new strategy as the current one is sheer madness? The answer is that there are those in our leadership who are quite willing to go along with the current policy of spilling Pakistani blood — both of the soldiers, civilians and militants — as long as they can get dollars and US support. Even more crucial, all the issues of bad governance and corruption (400% rise in 3 years) are papered over as the leadership hides its incompetence under the counter terrorism banner.

Like their predecessors, they also know that if things go out of control in Pakistan, they can always take off to western capitals where their wealth and properties await them.

Beginning from zero militant Taliban in 2004 before the Waziristan operation, today there are around 30 Taliban groups (according to the presentation given by the army to the Parliamentarians). No one has any idea who is backing which group; what percentage are fighting because of Pushtun solidarity; how many belong to the old jehadi groups created at the time of the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan; how many are actually criminals and unemployed; how many are paid by the enemies of Pakistan to destabilise the country; and so on. In other words, there is an odd amalgam of militants and criminal elements seeking to destabilise the Pakistani state.

How can military operations be supported when our soldiers die in vain, when each operation produces more militancy as well as increasing the suffering of the local civilian population? While the government correctly claims that drone attacks are counter productive and produce more militancy, would the Pakistan military’s aerial bombardment with its indiscriminate “collateral damage” also not have the same effect?

Herein lies a basic contradiction in the government’s policy. Those who are suffering the most are the people of the tribal areas and Swat - with over three million people displaced, their homes, livelihood and children’s education destroyed.

What about the forgotten Bajaur operation earlier this year when 500,000 civilians were displaced and our soldiers suffered many casualties. Today, the Taliban control the same areas that the army had removed them from earlier. The most disconcerting aspect of the present military action is that no one is interested to know what needs to happen for us for “victory” to be declared.

As happened in the fight against the Soviets in Afghanistan, this “war” could go on endlessly and spread across the country. After all, a brief look at the history of the tribal areas reveals how the British were embroiled in an unwinnable war for 80 years and before them the tribals confronted the Moghuls for 69 years.

Can Pakistan afford these operations for even the next five years? How will we deal with the continuing flow of displaced people - or how long will the IDPs survive living as nomads in their own country? How are we planning to stop the radicalisation of the youth in such conditions? Where will we find the resources to eventually rehabilitate these displaced families, given the massive infrastructure damage? What about the impact on the economy if these operations continue endlessly? Already the political situation in the NWFP is getting worse by the day. We have created perfect environment for our enemies to exploit tensions emerging from the current chaos- ethnic, provincial, religious (shia/sunni, deobandi/barelevi) and class (as in Swat).

The critical question is: what is the solution? In Swat, despite being a severe critic of the timing and nature of the military operation, now that it is in full swing, it has to go on till the writ of the government is established. Otherwise there will be even more anarchy as all existing infrastructure has been destroyed. But there is still a need for a more targeted focus of the military operation and a gearing up of the civil administration including the police and local judiciary.

The solution lies in pulling our troops out of Fata gradually and simultaneously reviving the tribal structure. But this means not only withstanding political pressure from Washington but also doing without US dollars - both of these seem beyond the capability of the current dollar-addicted leadership!

However there are voices within the US political and administrative structures that are becoming more sceptical about the US policy in Afghanistan. For instance, Graham Fuller, the former CIA station chief in Kabul wrote in the International Herald Tribune that there was no military solution to the problem in Afghanistan. According to him, Pakistan was “cracking under the pressure” put on it to “do more” by the US and that the Pakistan security forces could control the militancy within its borders provided Nato leaves Afghanistan. If sane voices in the US can see the writing on the wall, why is our leadership still going down a suicidal course for their own vested interests - destroying the military and the nation in the process?
By Imran Khan

ISAF (International Security Assistance Force) alliance came in to being in 2001, with support of 26 NATO nations, 10 Partner countries and 4 Non-NATO Non EAPC State, Currently With 19,000 US troops being largest and 7,750 troops from United Kingdom. Initially ISAF was operation in Kabul against the Taliban and other Local Fighters and were working to strengthen the Puppet Government of Hamid Karzaai, but after Taliban changes there war strategy and set back to different regions to fight gorilla type war ISAF had no other option left to expand there strikes all over the Afghanistan, they increases number of troops from 8000 to almost 50,000 for the large scale military actions. Points which international community gave in response to there presence in the region is the stability to region, reform programs to develop infrastructure, institution building, to bring afghan and acquaint them with the system they called Democracy.

Those familiar with the term "New World Order" knows the meaning of this 3 letter word, that there cant be any other system in this world and one must have to obey it otherwise you cant survive because they will not let you survive, you might suffer with economic sanctions, your state could be called a fail state, you could be portrayed as a most unethical nation and enemy to humanity or you may be called as terrorist (Thanks to western print and electronic media) and could face War suppose to be against terrorism, Your innocent people might suffer the most deadly bombs from the sky, your young generation could be brutally killed or transported to unknown place without any law or justice.

We were discussing Afghanistan, the country who challenge the super power role in the interior matters, decisions and their dominating role in international politics. If Muslim nation as a whole unable to understand the needs of their faith and act according to the message of Quran they will be ruined one by one. As a nation its now time to be free from western philosophy and culture otherwise they will continue making fun of our believes. Someone might remember 9/11 attacks (seems to be Pre-planned Drama to me) where Taliban Government was agreed upon to handover Osama bin laden if they provide solid proof of his involvement in it. But now its an open secret that they have other objects behind this war, Its better Now to identify the real enemy before they start destructing our fundamentals.

Its important not to rely on information and research came from organizations and institutions owned by any country or group of peoples for specific purpose or for their own political interest.

 War Against Islam----

Pakistan as a front line state in so called war against terrorism, will face direct war by US in near future? this is very likely, in the presant senario where presidential elections is pakistan are about to be happened this year september 2007, and what ever the result may be, pakistan will not be in position to fought more and shade their own blood for the name of war against extremism any more, On the other hands where Bush administration (republican party) are loosing their hopes, Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama said Wednesday that he would possibly send troops into Pakistan, and more then that Pakistan will risk a U.S. troop invasion and losing hundreds of millions of dollars in U.S. military aid. further more Obama said that as commander in chief he would remove troops from Iraq and putting them "on the right battlefield in Afghanistan and Pakistan." He said he would send at least two more brigades to Afghanistan and increase nonmilitary aid to the country by $1 billion.
A Pakistani Foreign Ministry statement said: "President Bush stated that the United States fully respected Pakistan's sovereignty and appreciated Pakistan's resolve in fighting Al Qaeda and other terrorist elements." It added that Bush said such statements were "unsavory and often prompted by political considerations in an environment of electioneering". President Musharraf when asked on a dinner at the house of Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz about the potential of U.S. military operations in Pakistan, and told guests that Pakistan was "fully capable" of tackling terrorists in the country and did not need any foreign assistance.
On the other side, 1,000 tribesmen rallied in Miran Shah, the main town in the North Waziristan tribal area, condemning recent military operations and chanting slogans against the United States for threatening to attack. "We are able to defend ourselves," a local cleric, Maulvi Muhammad Roman, said in a speech at the rally. "We will teach a lesson to America if it attacks us."
whatever the situation may be, pakistan will be in more critical situation then before, and in the global politics where china & russia are balanceing their wings & charging them to secure there intrests in the region. lets see what happens next.

US Pakistan Relation----Pervez Musharraf

We are running on US Aid, Grants given to us are not because they love us or they want us to be florished. But why not pakistan reject these kind of aids! Are you kidding? Dont you see how well dress our rulers are, you should always give a smile while looking at the shiny car rally of our VIP's. If you are hugry dont be frustrated, get use to electricity shutdown, judiciary will be restore one day(only and if president agree to do so). People who voted PPP should respect NRO and should respect president musharraf and must follow the commands as according to the deal. People of pakistan living in the north-western areas are terrorist and deserve to be treated as enemy to pakistan, because we are bond to declear them terrorist as we are an ally in US War against terrorism(Muslims).
Questions remains unanswerable, if thats a policy of a peoples elected and voted party then why to blame PML(Q)?, I still remember the faces of PML(Q) spokemans in these kind of situations, but look at this government they dont even feel guilty on any single issue.
What I mean to say is the political sensibility, new ideas, ability to resolve issues, safeguarding moral values and most importantly the "Will to do". But those who are from ages trying to surve there Godfathers can never lead the country, because they are mentally trained to obey the commands instead of given the Orders. They will keep looking toward their masters, creators and boses.
Is it all what we have? is it all what peoples wanting. Real problems are bigger then our observations. we even forgot the differences between independance and dependance, we still claps on the jokers of politics who only knows what words can grab the attention of the audience.
Its time to wake up to take what we deserve, and give them what they deserve the most, otherwise our identity, our religious values even our own childerns will be sold in global market one day.

After reading so much discussion on current politics, the tactics, the impression, the political measurements, the expected outcome all remain the same with ultimate focus of every ruler is how to prolong his power and autonomy. This is a simple rule applicable with almost every civilization, every society, every nation irrespective of what century you are in, and what culture you are represanting the rules remains the same, "Ultimate goal of every politician is to acquire maximum power as he can". In democratic culture, "Its a playing field where two powerful elements of one society fight for authority or control on the resources". Let us have a look on the defination of a good politician " One who can make peoples fool again and again with different ways and have extra talent to impress the mob".
One should never do anything except for the interest of people, and what are the public interest without going in the detail let us see some meanings of the words very commonly used in our political senerio these days:
Public interest= His own interest
Terrorist= Muslims
War against Terrorism= War against Muslims
Constitution= shield to protect his own rule
International Co-operation= Need more Money
Fight for the interest of peoples= Fight for his own gain
Political Crisis= conflict of personal interest between political powers

If one like to read the meaning of the words commonly used in political language he/she can buy a book called "Safire's Political Dictionary" by William Safire. It is indeed very much true that reality seems opposite of what sentence said by politicians. We never want to listen to less powerful man weither truth or false and like to give attention to gratifying sentences doesnt matter how foolish they look practically.

lawyers rally came to an end with claims to have the largest gathering in the history of Islamabad with 2-3 lacks of peoples reach infront of parliment house for the reinstatement of Judges. But the result are same as predicted by many observers and analysts, Lawyer are now looking to change the style of protest to continue the pressure on government but still we are nowhere near the solution as demand by lawyer to restate judiciary as it were on 2 November. Let see how much success they get in the next face of there movement and how come they reunit the groups who were little disappointed after the Long March. look to me that no revolution can change the shadow of darkness. My perception should be wrong.

After the attack on mehman agency where many pakistanis including 11 army man killed local taliban vowed to raise a militia to help Pakistan's army defend the border with Afghanistan. This is not the first time that we have seen these kind of attacks on paistani soil but the difference is only the so called democratic government elected through votes pledge before election that we would not allowed anyone to strike our land and now whats happening, NATO troop striking NATO's Secret Armies: Operation GLADIO and Terrorism in Western Europe (Contemporary Security Studies)every day or two, there aircraft is free to fly anywhere in pakistan and kill whoever they want. where is our soveranity, whom we going to beg for our life? why to make an army? Is this how atomic powers react? Yes this is so because we have the most currupted politicians to rule us, coward army who can only fight with weaks, capitalists sucking the blood and capturing the resources of our nation, Upper class not wanted to share a single rupee with poor.
The peace agreement will not be lasted in such conditions where NATO forces are striking on our border areas and US officials already told that all these Peace talk will be ended soon. We have to identify our real enemy and ask nation to stand against them or else we will be doomed by the slow poison of economic, judicial, social and national crises.
