05/09/2011 12:32 MI: I'm in Monaco but it's no problem for me to fly up. Takes 90 minutes. What time did you have in mind? Where do you want to meet?
05/09/2011 12:35 HH: Pls call me. I'm at the Park Lane Intercon +442071060900 room 430

05/09/2011 13:39 HH: I am sure that can be arranged upon formal demand
05/09/2011 13:40 MI: That is critical to breaking apart the system outside - and understanding what was going on inside. Would we get candor and truth or some brainwashed jargon?
05/09/2011 13:40 MI: The calls to Isphani's people have been made. Very very receptive reaction so far
05/09/2011 13:44 HH: If my friend and I feel sufficiently empowered in relation to the bad boys, I will ensure we get candor
05/09/2011 13:45 MI: Got it. Let me see if we can't get you a sledge hammer with a golden handle
05/09/2011 13:47 HH: Would be nice
05/09/2011 13:47 MI: I'm sending you a PIN message that others cannot see. Please respond. Thanks
05/09/2011 13:48 HH: Okay. Thx
05/09/2011 13:54 MI: Message by PIN sent
05/09/2011 13:56 HH: Okay
05/09/2011 14:22 MI: Message has been delivered to Isphani. Receptiom positive but I need you to agree to do something. Can I call you?
05/09/2011 15:02 MI: Please PING when you can talk and on what number. Time sensitive
05/09/2011 15:05 HH: Entering No 10. Can speak on cell after an hour
05/09/2011 15:05 MI: Okay. I'll wait for your PING
05/09/2011 16:09 HH: PING!!!
05/09/2011 16:09 HH: PING!!!
05/09/2011 16:09 HH: Pls call on cell now +16179532835
05/09/2011 16:10 HH: PING!!!
05/09/2011 16:19 MI: Sorry. Was stuck on call to DC. Pls ping again when ready
05/09/2011 18:26 HH: PING!!!
05/09/2011 18:27 MI: Tried you. Phone says unavailable
05/09/2011 18:38 MI: The message I sent is what MM will see. It will be given directly to him and no one else
05/09/2011 18:59 MI: My friend in DC simply said too many people have been burned in the past two years on the US side and he wanted to insure that on such a sensitive subject, the data and proposal are clear. This is you to me, me to him. He trusts me enough to know I won't bring it forward unless it has top level approval. He does not need it with any email addresses etc. He will scrub that in any event. If you want names to be mentioned, yours, JK, MD, etc, I will do that in person. So get whatever message you want delivered back to me and I'll insure it gets in MM's hands. Best. M
05/09/2011 19:02 MI: By the way, the interesting thing is that they consider AZ's approval of the message worth more than anyone else in country right now. How do you like that?
05/09/2011 20:43 MI: I have additional information you need to hear. Ping when I can call you please
05/09/2011 21:10 MI: Would it be safe to say that you don't want to run this up your flagpole because you need to work this deal from the middle out? Tell me if that's the case and I'll use a different approach that does not require something in writing. What would then be helpful is if I could simply have a BBM saying my talking points are correct, or not, and then you set your table, I'll set my table and make sure you are an honored guest at my table when the party begins. If you're good with that, I just need your okay on the talking points. No need to run it up the az-pole, if you get my drift. M
05/10/2011 00:29 HH: Msg recvd. Tweaking. Middile of road option sounds good. Will call morning.
05/10/2011 00:29 HH: PING!!!
05/10/2011 00:37 MI: Will you be sending me your tweaks or am I to use my copy as final? If tweaks are short, I can call you to get them
05/10/2011 08:47 MI: You have mail from two of my mailboxes. Please read, respond and then we have one last short discussion before I put everything in motion. Thanks. M
05/10/2011 12:45 MI: I was just informed by senior US intel that GD-SII Mr P asked for, and received permission, from senior Arab leaders a few days ago to sack Z. For what its worth
05/10/2011 13:08 HH: Thanks. Very useful 05/10/2011 13:09 HH: My friend and I agree with middle option. Go ahead
05/10/2011 14:57 MI: Message delivered with caveat that he has to decide how hard to push - we only set the table. He must decide if he wants one course meal or seven course meal. Ball is in play now - make sure you have protected your flanks
05/11/2011 12:33 MI: I've been asked to find out what time your meeting is today. Response so far indicates they are having a hard look, although they find it nearly impossible to believe anyone could deliver such results... to be expected, I suppose. Hope you got home okay. Did you see Mush while in London?
05/11/2011 14:59 MI: PING!!!
05/12/2011 00:36 HH: Call me on my cell
05/12/2011 00:37 HH: Also, M in ur msgs above referred to the Admiral, right?
05/12/2011 00:37 MI: Yes
05/12/2011 00:54 MI: Clarification. M at the end of a message is Mansoor. M or MM in the text of a message is the admiral. Apologies for any confusion. BBM when free. I'll call you. Whether it is shattering news or not is up to you to decide
05/12/2011 01:47 MI: I just received an email from my link to MM independently confirming what you told me by phone. He says MM was appreciative of our intervention and utilized the data to advise and consent
05/12/2011 02:47 HH: Thanx. On way to Isloo. Will touch base on return
05/12/2011 02:54 MI: Good luck. Let me know at any time if you need any help
Details of chat between MI and HH after his Financial article was published until the first week of November, 2011:
HH: you can keep saying you delivered a message and show bbm convos to prove it
HH: Basically you don't get it
HH: You have given hardliners in Pak Mil reason to argue there was an effort to get US to conspire against Pak Mil
HH: You are a US citizen
HH: You are supposed to look after US interests
MI: I wrote one article. Have not said one word on the record since then to anyone. I think your press is working both sides against the middle, trying to force something out of anyone they can. Period. I don't play in that game
HH: In Pak political situation, getting burned as a US stooge undermines one's effectiveness
HH: I will make sure FO shuts up
HH: Let this die down
HH: We are in the right
HH: We will still make things happen
MI: Okay, well I know my IQ is pretty low so you are probably correct in saying I just don't get it.
HH: The Pak press be damned
HH: I stand by you as a man of integrity werving his country
HH: You don't let ppl back home argue I play for your team, not ours
MI: But from my point of view, if there was a real threat, as you stated at the time, it is clear you were trying to save a democratic structure from those hawks
HH: You get to write the book on how you changed US-Pak dynamic and won the war in A'tan (w/ some help from a Paki nerd) :D
MI: I was happy to get the message in the back door because it served American interests to preserve the democratic civilian setup and the offers made, if achieved, were very much congruent with American objectives in the region
HH: True that, friend. But you know premature revelation ain't good
MI: As far as I can see, we did right. Unless there is something I don't see here. But then I'm sorta dumb from down on the farm where them hillbillies live
HH: Hey! Don't run down hillbillies
HH: Even the smartest can miss a piece of the puzzle
HH: You are assuming there are no powerful men in Pak willing to break w/ US. Premature revelation gives those ppl reason to claim 'conspiracy', 'treason'
HH: That is all you missed. Period.
HH: And no one else might tell you this, you're becoming irritable and losing your sense of humor as you grow old
HH: Let this one go. There is much to do. MUCH. And then, there's the beach where I've been waiting to be invited, the slum boy visiting the millionaire
MI: I'm not a millionaire. But I do know a nice piece of beach!
HH: I'm not a slum boy either but I know how to make friends with smart people with a sense of history :P
MI: Jesus, then what the -- are you doing hanging around with me? =D
HH: We'll make things happen and if we can't, we'll write a book about it
HH: Who said I was hanging around with you. A minute ago I thought you were about to hang me :D
MI: :O MI: Really?
HH: Look, Isloo is a mess. Journos gone wild. Politicos scared of mil. Mil scared of Yanks.
MI: Tell me one important thing. Who likes you and who hates you in the US establishment? Who wants you to stay and who wants to -- you up?
HH: The debate abt your oped has caused my detractors to put pressure on my boss
HH: In US estab, I can count on Leon and Petraeus
MI: I thought YOU were the boss!
MI: Who is against you?
HH: Folks at State don't like me
MI: Why?
MI: Too close to AZ?
HH: They think I am too mixed up w/ DoD and others and do not help them cut deals w/ Pak mil
HH: Close to AZ bit too
HH: They are wrong re DoD and others.
HH: It is just that becoz of A'tan, they are more imp than State
MI: I always thought HRC was one of your fans. She even has a lady from our parts working with her
HH: It is folks at State who got pissed off by your mission
HH: She may be but I was Holbrooke's buddy so everyone who hates him hates me
HH: I have no time for just pushing paper around
HH: State likes process
MI: Which mission? Sudan, Kashmir, there were so many they got pissed off about. I showed them how to do real American diplomacy and that was like a big pile of shit on their desk they couldn't swallow
HH: Conferences, statements-with nothing changing
HH: The latest one
MI: Yeah, I got it. You're right!
MI: Anyway, State will always hate me because I don't accept their muddling way of doing things
HH: I don't know for a fact but I won't be surprised if the FO statement was prompted by someone here
HH: Robin Raphel is back as Grossman's deputy
HH: You stepped on her toes w/ Kashmir mission
MI: That would be typical. But Grossman knows me and he knows how serious I am. Raphael still hates me for the Kashmir intervention where she did everything she could to fuck me up
HH: And now they hate me more when folks back home who hate me tell them you and I might have been together on s'thing (whether we were or not is irrelevant to them)
HH: Grossman is good but he doesn't like anyone playing a larger than life role. Old school
HH: That's why I have been requesting you to let this one go
MI: Yeah I know. Found that out when he was our lobbyist. But he's a good guy
HH: That takes attention off me
MI: Hmmmmmmmmm....... Not sure anything could take attention off you
HH: I try and make peace with State and focus on battles at home
HH: HaHa :D MI: Diplomacy at its finest!!! HH: Yeah, right! But at least I shd not be painted as playing for your team
MI: Why not? You were a good quarterback for those three days!!
HH: I want to solve -***ing problems not fight a rearguard action all the time
HH: :x
HH: Let us wait and see if Hillary's latest foray changes things in any direction
MI: Did we really solve a true problem or was this all smoke and mirrors?
MI: I mean on those days of stress...
HH: View here is that everyone in Isloo sucks!
MI: That's pretty much true!!!!
HH: Too early to say re solution
MI: But if they all suck, then what did we save - a sinking ship that was going to sink anyway???
HH: And there is a genetic problem at that end, predisposed to going round and round in circles
MI: Yup!! That's for damn sure
HH: I think we save the situation from an extremely violent outcome
MI: How can you solve the problems you understand so well from here if all the people in charge over there are wrong? It's only one year til we have a change in the US. Then you really won't like who we have here!
HH: I mean, Iran might have done better if the Shah had been saved AND some true reform introduced
HH: Actually, I think the new ppl here might be better to deal with
HH: They won't take lies easily
MI: Don't bet on it. We have a lot of extremists cropping up and seeping into the system
MI: They don't trust anything Pakistani
MI: Don't matter what it is
HH: Well, in that case find me a cheap piece of beach :)
MI: Cain, Romney (who hates Muslims), Perry - its all the same crap
MI: Hmmmmm, yes, I can arrange that
MI: Why is Z such an idiot?
HH: But don't go off writing opeds abt arranging piece of beach w'out consulting first :P
HH: HaHa! Tough question
HH: I have a speech in 20 mins so let's keep that for later
HH: Bye for now
MI: Okay. Good luck.
HH: Thank you!
MI: Hi buddy, I understand you/ your foreign office hacks are commissioning hatchet pieces against me. Unfortunate.... very unfortunate
HH: I will enquire and stop them. There's no need for any of this.
HH: You haven't helped by engaging so much w/ Pak media.
HH: What happened to the 'silent soldier'?
MI: I issued a statement that was designed to put an end to all of this after Imran Khan's rally nonsense. But be that as it may, I'm not going to tolerate character assassination in any of this
HH: I agree
HH: Will do my best to prevent it
MI: Roger that
HH: Focus on your policy message instead of who did what and we can turn this around
MI: Please remind your boss that his beloved wife, who later became a good friend of mine, tried the same bullshit tactics in 1996 when Maleeha was envoy - result: her government was dismissed in Nov 1996.
MI: I'm not someone he can mess around with. He better get that message from me and really understand it
HH: My response to Imran was very simple and true: I did not write a treasonous letter and if Imran has a copy, he should present it
HH: I don't think your threatening helps
MI: That's true from my point of view as well. But politicians are politicians
MI: I don't make threats. I state facts. Your boss needs reminding of the facts
HH: Are you sure your side won't deny?
MI: No, maybe they will. But that would also be a mistake. Too much proof on that side as well.
HH: But does "proving" help anything?
HH: Is it not the nature of a private mission that officials deny it?
MI: Don't know. Don't care. My point is simple - I've said what I was going to. Attacks on my person will not be tolerated. And my statement stands. Stop telling lies about me and I might just stip telling the truth about you
HH: If you were to listen to my advice, you would let this blow over and prove yourself afterwards. You are the one who will outlast the flying shit :)
HH: That is usually my strategy: be there when the others have self-destructed or blown over
MI: I've kept to my word - if everyone wants to call it a fabrication and make me the fall guy, then gloves come off and it's not going to be fun or pretty for anyone
MI: You did something you thought was right outside channels because you felt it would be the most effective way to get the job done. I helped you execute. I haven't thrown you under the bus. But be damn sure I won't let anyone do that to me
HH: I'll do what I can to keep it pretty
HH: I haven't. I won't.
MI: By the way, I know a lot more than you give me credit for about the circumstances that led to May 1 and your role in all that. Just FYI
HH: Honorable ppl stick with one another. Take care.
MI: ;)
HH: I am maintaining silence so pls check with me before reacting if some Pak journo attributes anything to me
MI: It's interesting (and heartening) to see that many of the proposals made in the memo are now being implemented in the bilateral relationship. Very good

Plan of change in Egypt current politcal Conditions of Egypt

Protesters who were demanding for change demanding president Hosni Sayyid Mubarak to resign from presidency welcome the Resignation of Hosni Mubarak. Egyptian Military promise the nation to transfer the power in a transparent way.
Mohamed Hussein Tantawi, the head of the Higher Military Council continue to meet all the stakeholders and planning to bring change in the country. Date of Election in Egypt is likely to be announced by the Rulers soon to have a Government elected by the people of Egypt. Services of Government Ministers who were continue running things after resignation of Mubarak are discountinued after Army Dissolve the Government and new constitution will be formed by special committee setup by the Military Council.
              The Muslim Brotherhood movement has declared that is not seeking power. "The Muslim Brotherhood is not looking for personal gains and will therefore not run for the presidency and won't aspire to reach a parliament majority."
Protesters demand Democracy for Egypt, but not the kind of Democracy what western countries have and what western countries wanted in Egypt. They want Government free from international pressure; they want Government who can safeguard the interest of the people of Egypt. Which were previously not being given as Egyptian authorities (Mubarak regime) failed to ensure protection of their right to freedom of expression?
Future of Egypt is still not clear, No one knows who is the most popular and strongest party in Egypt, is it still National Democratic Party?
             Possible Candidate for Presidency :Egyptian Vice-President Omar Suleiman, Arab League Secretary General Amr Mussa, Yahya al-Jamal, Mahmoued al-Khudairy, Mohamed ElBaradei, Zakaria Abdel Aziz, Ahmed Zuweil, Ayman Nour etc

Pakistan Election

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.

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.

We have just seen a newly elected Government, ready to face plenty of challenges and started fixing evil doing of the last government. Crisis of almost every thing from Electricity to Floor & Sugar have been suffer and still suffering. The government of Shaukat Aziz exported wheat at the rate of $200 per ton without necessary calculation that it may cause Shortage for our own. After the flour shortage came, they imported flour back to Pakistan at the rate of $515 per ton. Interestingly, there are claims that the wheat was never physically removed from Pakistan and was hoarded, with ghost companies created in the gulf region acting as its 'importers.' I Don't know why peoples claiming about the comission earned by Musharraf government from every single crisis, Peoples should thanks to Musharraf for selling only the blood of the muslim nation, for bringing only the food crisis, for giving indigent suiside as a solution for hunger, to present us as a slave to western countries (adobting there culture and there ways).
Those talking about working relation with musharraf would face same consequences as like him after his step dawn from the office of presidency( although i believe PPP and PML(N) would never affort to have any kind of relation within current senario.
New Government should understand that more time you take to clean the mess of the past more hard it will be to do so, and if constitution of pakistan is so weak that it could protect only the stronger and powerful personalities and people like sharifuddin pirzada plays it as a video game, we should change the constitution of pakistan accordingly, doing nothing now means given army another chance to grab all the power with only a single order within few years.
All parties should analyse that there future depend on it and no better time and no metter position there will be for neccesary constitutional changes.

After the conduction of comparatively free, fair and peaceful election, which was very unlikely but thanks to immense pressure by the judiciary, civil society, media and other peoples from inside and out side the country.
After the success of pakistan peoples party (Complete Election Result of 2008)in the Election 2008, most likely formated government will be an alliance between PML(N), PPPP, ANP. There are peoples talking about the efforts going on to pressurise PPPP to make alliance with PML(Q), MQM and ANP.
Government on the other hand throughing everycard they have from cases in the swiss court to NRO(National Reconciliation Ordinance) for building strong pressure on Asif Ali Zardari.
President of the lawyers bar association in the press conferance announced the continuation of the protest for the restoration of judiciary unless the judges restored on the 3rd November position. Otherwise, there will be a strong protest against the newly government on the roads.

UN human rights - Pakistan must restore democratic rule, UN human rights experts urge We are deeply alarmed at the imposition of the state of emergency in Pakistan and condemn the suspension of fundamental freedoms, including the right not to be deprived of one’s liberty, freedom of movement, peaceful assembly and freedom of expression,” said the group in a statement which followed expressions of concern expressed also by Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and other UN officials. Further Condemning “the excessive use of force by the police, the brutal repression and the massive arrests that have occurred during demonstrations organized by lawyers to protest against the suspension of the Constitution,” the statement also raised concern about the pervasive restrictions placed on the media, particularly the suspension of broadcasts of all international and national privately owned channels, as well as the serious assaults inflicted upon journalists by members of the police and security forces.

Asian Human Rights Commission - Press Releases The Asian Human Rights Commission (AHRC) urges upon the government of Pakistan to disclose the names of judges, lawyers, journalists, human rights activists and political workers that are continuing to be detained under the emergency rule.
The names of the detainees and the places where they have been detained, which are minimum requirements in the UN’s Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of Prisoners, have not been readily available to detainee’s families. Of the 3,500 lawyers reported to have been arrested and detained only around 500 judges and lawyers were identified. "Without the names of detainees and place of detention, they would be at the mercy of the security forces taking them into custody.
