No Fried Chicken For US Soldiers In Afghanistan

KABUL, Afghanistan—The US military is doing its best to downplay the effect of Pakistani blockade on US and NATO supplies bound for Afghanistan. You can see Pentagon spokespersons almost every day using a variation of the same theme: ‘Oh it doesn’t affect us’, or ‘we’ve made arrangements’ or ‘important supplies don’t go through that route.’ The truth is that more than half of US supplies, everything from Special-Ops gear to ammunition to French fries, pass through the critical Pakistani supply line. While US military and CIA won’t reveal how much they are hurting because of the Pakistani blockade, which came into effect after a deliberate US attack killed 24 Pakistani soldiers, there are signs that US soldiers are beginning to feel...

India uranium sales 'unique': Australia

Australia’s Defence Minister Stephen Smith said India represented a “unique” case for uranium sales Thursday and denied that lifting its export ban to New Delhi opened the door to countries like Pakistan. The ruling centre-left Labor party voted to overturn its long-standing ban on uranium sales to India at its national policy summit last weekend despite the fact that it was still not a signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty. Smith, on an official visit to India, said the decision had been “warmly welcomed” but rebuffed suggestions that Pakistan may want a similar arrangement. “The circumstances for India so far as export of uranium is concerned are, in my view, unique,” Smith told ABC television from India. “Pakistan does not have...

Imran Khan’s opportunity?

By Usama Abbasi Much has been written about Imran Khan’s Lahore rally and its impact on Pakistan’s politics. The impressive public gathering has animated a lively debate about whether the cricketer-turned politician can convert a visible groundswell of support into a serious challenge to the country’s major political parties and emerge as a credible ‘third force’. The dismissive tone adopted by Imran’s political opponents only revealed how rattled they were by his Lahore show. In fact, the Lahore rally seemed to crystallise deeper shifts in the public mood that have been underway for some time. Three trends are noteworthy and help to explain why Imran is receiving greater public traction now than in the past. The first and most obvious is growing public disenchantment...

Final News of the World hits stands as scandal closes tabloid

Karachi (CNN PAKISTAN) -- The last edition of the News of the World hit stands Sunday morning, as Britain's best-selling newspaper shuts down in the face of a scandal over illegal eavesdropping and bribery that has outraged Britain and rattled the foundation of the nation's political establishment.

Media heavily devastating today's generation

These days very often an upsetting hue is heard from the parents of the modern youth: "My child is getting weak in studies" Not only Parents but also teachers get upset due to the hopelessness prevailing in today's youth.

Rights abuses by U.S. grounds for denying extradition, court rules

A Toronto judge was justified in freeing an alleged Al Qaeda collaborator given the gravity of human rights abuses committed by the United States in connection with his capture in Pakistan, the Ontario Court of Appeal has ruled. Judges are not expected to remain passive when countries such as the U.S. violate the rights of alleged terrorists, the court said Friday. Its 3-0 ruling upholds a decision last August by Justice Christopher Speyer of Ontario’s Superior Court of Justice to stay extradition proceedings involving Abdullah Khadr, 30, who is wanted in Boston on charges of procuring munitions for use by Al Qaeda against U.S. and coalition forces in Afghanistan....

The man who sold the world

Arriving in Pakistan from London in the summer of 2003, I wondered if I would encounter grave anti-western sentiment, given that Britain and the US were waging wars in two Muslim lands. What I found, at least when it came to my own family, was the odd moment of comic relief. Take the cousin, for instance, who decided that boycotting American fast food franchises was not enough. She was soon found outside a local gym armed with crates of Mecca Cola to better seduce the sugar addict with a conscience. Back then, of course, terrorism and its threat had yet to penetrate both the national psyche and the daily discourse. Pakistan had yet to be crowned the world’s most dangerous nation or, as one British publication put it last summer, the laboratory of world destruction. Today, there is little...

The Death of Osama Bin Laden

ABERNETHY: It’s been an emotional week since the dramatic US operation that killed Osama bin Laden in Pakistan. On Thursday, President Obama laid a wreath at Ground Zero. He met with loved ones of some of those killed on 9-11 and told them he hoped bin Laden’s death brought them a small measure of comfort. The president repeatedly cited the 9-11 attacks when he announced the operation on Sunday. Obama: Justice has been done. ABERNETHY: When the news broke, spontaneous celebrations began in front of the White House and across the country. That prompted vigorous debate about whether jubilation was appropriate. In some parts of the Muslim world, there were anti-American protests and vows of retaliation. Obama made a distinction...

Bring Pakistan Back Into the Fold

Despite concerns about Pakistani officials' knowledge of Osama bin Laden's long-term presence in the military city of Abbottabad, it would be rash and reckless to break off aid or relations with Pakistan, witnesses and members of a House subcommittee agreed Tuesday.Rather, the United States needs to find a way to get Pakistan to go back to being the important ally it was following 9/11, when it helped track down and arrest a series of al-Qaida leaders."Pakistan has provided enormous assistance in the last decade in the fight against al-Qaida, including critical intelligence and military operations," Counterterrorism and Intelligence Subcommittee Chairman Patrick Meehan, R-Penn., said in his opening remarks Tuesday afternoon."Their efforts should be commended and the United States must...

Christian’s struggle with Osama bin Laden’s death

BY Tehmina InflationColumnist First, I was shocked. The man had become a virtual ghost. At times, he was almost forgotten. I thought the day of his death would never come.Next, I felt a tremendous sense of pride. I was proud of our soldiers, our military, and our president. Our country had once again done a very hard thing and had done it well.Then, as I watched people in New York and D.C. waving flags and dancing in the street, I felt an urge to celebrate. Lyrics from The Wizard of Oz came back to me. “Ding-Dong! The witch is dead. The wicked witch is dead.”However, my little celebration caused me to have another feeling. Suddenly, I felt guilty.For me, the news that the terrorist kingpin, Osama bin Laden, had been killed by U.S. Special Forces did not come until Monday at 5 a.m....

Osama dead: Wikileaks says Laden received tip off from RAW and CIA

Karachi: The latest document dump from Wiki-Leaks has pointed to the role of American's CIA in sheltering Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda's terror merchants in Pakistan. The Daily Telegraph, which accessed a US diplomatic dispatch, said General Abdullo Sadulloevich Nazarov, a senior Tajik counter-terrorism official, had told the Americans that many inside CIA knew where bin Laden was. "In Pakistan, Osama bin Laden wasn't an invisible man, and many knew his whereabouts in North Waziristan, but whenever security forces attempted a raid on his hideouts , the enemy received warning of their approach from sources in the security forces." This could possibly be the reason why Pakistan was not kept on the loop over its operation against Osama in Abbottabad....
