Vienna,Sunday,November 18,2007: President Bush and his Deputy Secretary of State,John Negreponte should accept the Pakistani reality and truth that =freedom and democracy= even one
hundredth of what President Bush believes what they are can not be operative in that country for a long long time to come.The mountainous regions of North West Frontier Agency even before the country´s birth had been under a tribal rule from the time unknown to man.It is just Punjab and Sind parts of the country which are now under a fifty/fifty rule of law.It is not a reason to celebrate for the law enforcing justice system. General Parvez Musharraf has been burdened with that historic task of enforcing law and order after the aggressive suicidal attacks of 11-09-2001,worse than the Pearl Harbor attack.It is no minor responsibility in the context,President Bush knows his partners in the land of =holy places= also do not let man´s law to be operative there.There is one god hidden there behind the curtains after a total of 399 others were destroyed by that god´s sole messenger, when he established the faith of Islam and the republic known as Umma.Then the messenger died leaving more than ten million god´s mullah messengers to rule the in the entire world where the Islamic Umma spread itself.When they say a court of law, a mullah court is meant not the court of law known in the United States,Europe or anywhere in the world.

Let me quote from the words of Ambassador Curtin Winsor, Jr. for the sake of clarity: = A Saudi
dissident group released in (2004/5) a video tape showing the Chief Justice of Saudi Arabia´s Supreme Judicial Council, ( meaning =sharia= judiciary unknown to modern world) Saleh bin Muhammad al-Luhaidan advising young Saudis at a government mosque on how to infiltrate Iraq and fight U.S.troops,as well as assuring them that Saudi security forces would not punish them after their return=.Today´s Arab News report of the Kingdom of Holy Places, should make it further clear that the justice system now operative is indeed an =injustice system= that continued there for the last fifteen centuries.

rape victim sentenced whipping

Here is the gist of the Arab News report:A 19 year old rape victim girl´s earlier conviction was doubled yesterday to entail her get a total of 200 lashes and six months in prison.The girl identified as "Qatif Girl" is appealing the verdict even as the judge warned her if she lost, the sentence could be increased.Her guilt was=being in the company of an unrelated man=.It was then she and her companion were gang-raped by seven men.They have been awarded lesser sentences in lashes but between two and nine years in prison for their crime.The court has revoked her lawyer´s license to practice law by the Qatif General Court. Qatif girl is determined to fight the conviction.=even I was surprised at her determination= her husband was quoted as saying. His name is being withheld to protect the Qatif´s identity.

Now the post Zia Pakistan judiciary is influenced or corrupted by this =injustice system=.It is worth recalling during Zia´s rule public whipping as a punishment was advertised world wide.An Islamic banking system was introduced for the participation of the members of the Umma (Islamic Republic). So what were the democratic opposition and human right activists like Asma Jehangir was engaged in then? The whole of Pakistan and Afghanistan then went under a more cruel Taliban law.It was American involvement in Afghanistan that saved at least some part of Pakistan under a =constitutional cum military= rule,where mobs, mullahs and mosques had been armed and operating against the government.It is not now, more than a few months that a red mosque overlooking the Presidential Secretariat had to be cleared of the killing mullah mobs.

It is using this opportunity, the imperial mothers of Pakistan led by the U.S, who had given shelter to the twice dismissed Benazir Bhutto on corruption charges, encouraged her to return home offering Lindt chocolates. Once the general is out of the way, where is the guarantee that she will not unleash a thousand year´s mob war against the rest of the world? The U.S. and U.K. should have noted the welcome she got as she arrived in homeland to re-establish =democracy= there. Soon after The Telegraph, the known mouth piece of imperialism, called the general doing a thankless job,a=sob!=. Now why make an outcry to transfer absolute power to a =dod=? That is why I said in my earlier opinion piece =joint venture it is= that Ambassador Negreponte´s mission is that of making the =sob=and=dod= mate.

I am reminded of a narrative book on Indian Maharajas written by an imperial story teller influenced by the great Rudyard Kipling.My late journalistic guru, Mr.R.P.Iyer borrowed me
the book where a Rajputana maharaja to which society Bhutto family is traced loved his pet =royal= =sob= so much that he decided to get him a royal =dod= as bride. With great pomposity the event was organized.The festivities went on awaiting a ceremonial nuptial event, which the great Nayar daughter in law Hurley brusquely declined to undergo, for her own reasons. Even in the narrative, the royal =dod= did not oblige.Then an ambassador of the Maharaja was ordered like today´s Deputy Secretary of State, to bring the =sob= and the =dod= together so they can make their first festive love.How the story ended up can be easily found out by tracing the book by the London daily, The Telegraph,which was able to base three correspondents in Islamabad to insult Gen. Parvez Musharraf for the emporor´s faults.

The funny stories apart, under the grim realities the great General should be backed to the hilt in his task of establishing law and order and a realistically operational government that would not pose a threat to the rest of the world.Do not weaken his position.(end)
