A load of crap from an idle brain

Vir Sanghvi makes a chilling comparison between the Joker (villain in the movie Batman) and the terrorists who attacked Mumbai last month.

So, the UN and Pak have declared Jamat ul Dawa a terrorist organisation and froze its assets and money.  While the morons in the UN were debating, the Paki government would have already taken out the money.  And Jamat-ul-Dawa would have renamed itself Jamai-ka-Dawa, Jumme-ka-Dawa or Jummerat Bazar or… let your mind go on a naming spree.

Asking the Pakis to clamp down on terror is like asking Gandhi to take up guns.  Terrorism is in the blood of Pakis.  They will never let go of any opportunity to foment trouble in the region or in the world.  Pakistan is today nothing but an international migraine (as per Madeline Albright).  So true.

The only respite for the world will come when Pak is squeezed economically and the Paki govt made to grovel on its knees.  Here are 12 easy to do steps on getting Pakistani economy on its knees.

A stable Pakistan is not in the interest of world peace, leave alone India. Army controls the country and owns its economy.

A significant portion of its GDP is due to army-controlled entities (See: Military Inc – Inside Pakistan’s Military Economy, by Ayesha Siddiqa; OUP; 2007). One can easily say that Pakistan economy and its Army/ISI are synonymous.

Unless this elementary fact is internalised, we are not going anywhere. This implies we should stop talking of a stable Pakistan since a stable Pakistan means multiple attacks on many more cities of India by that rogue organisation ISI, which is the core of the Pakistan Army and the heart of Pakistan’s economy.

Let us not even assume that Zardari is in control. Poor man — he did not trust his own investigators to probe his wife’s assassination — he wanted Scotland Yard to do the job. Now he blabbers that if his investigators are satisfied, then he will initiate action against terrorists sitting inside Pakistan.

Periodically, the Pakistan Army likes to present some useful idiots (as Lenin would have called them) as elected representatives and we swoon over such events.

As India cranks up the heat, pressure seems to be mounting on Pakistan in the past 72 hours trying to evade the multiple evidences and proof that Pakistan was responsible for the mayhem in Mumbai last week.  Meanwhile, Pakistan even tried to play a game of  hoax call from the external affairs minister of India, Pranab Mukherjee where he reportedly threatened Zardari.  All this just to deflect the pressure and try to play up other angles in a bid to wriggle out of the tight situation it is in. At the end, the call was found to be fake.  I wonder with the kind of communication systems the President of Pakistan uses, I can call up Zaradri tomorrow and say that i want to whip his ass and he might panic and set his armed forces on high alert.

Meanwhile, India has given the names of 3 people to Pakistan and asked them to be extradited.  Also has given Pakistan 48 hours to crack down on the Pakistani home grown terrorist organisation Lashkar-e-Toiba.  The 3 people asked to be extradited are

Lieutenant General Hamid Gul – Ex ISI chief

Yusuf Muzammil - Lashkar-e-Toiba mastermind

Zaki ur Rahman Lakhvi – Lashkar-e-Toiba commander (also known with the following names – Zakir Rehman, Abu Waheed, Irshad Ahmad and Arshad Chachajee)

The Pakistani media tried to put a lot of spin around the Mumbai attacks by trying to point out to some yellow thread around the terrorist’s hands and stuff, but finally in face of mounting evidence and of the testimony of the lone captured terrorist Ajmal Amir Kasab and his family in Pakistan, it seems time is running out for Pakistan.

No one is doubting Zardari and his government’s involvement in the Mumbai attack, but its a known fact that democratically elected government of Pakistan has no locus standi in their country.  The country is virtually ruled by the Pakistani army and their rogue intelligence agency ISI.  Maybe it was all done by the ISI and the Pakistani army without the kowledge of Zardari and his government.  Or maybe, even the plan was hatched and executed by some rogue element of the rogue Pakistani spy agency ISI.  Maybe the head of Pakistani Army and ISI had no inkling of what was happening, but the truth is that the Mumbai attacks were planned, trained, executed and guided by Pakistani nationals.

Zardari can cry hoarse at his innocence, and even if he will act against the  ISI or the Pakistani Army, he would be blown up in another car bomb attack just like his wife Benazir Bhutto was.   Benazir though was no innocent woman. She was responsible for cranking up the terrorism in Kashmir and gave a free hand to the Pakistani Army and their rogue intelligence agency, ISI to foment terrorism in Kashmir.  She ultimately paid for her deeds with her life.

Its precisely what Pakistan is facing today.  The frankenstein monster in the form of Taliban is hitting it from Afghanistan.  The home grown terrorists of Pakistan like Lashkar-e-Toiba, Jaish Mohammad etc are out of their hands.  They have created monsters on which they have no control.  Today Pakistan is like a headless chicken running around with nuclear weapons in its hands.  A perfect failed state with a rabid fundamentalist Islamic terror having taken root and spread its venom in the society.  Terrorists running amok.  Shia and Sunnis blowing each other up.  The Army and ISI behaving as a state within a state.  The PPP led government of Zardari has no say in the running of the country.

With a depleted FDI, no money in the bank for imports, Pakistan is a major headache not only for India, but for the whole world. Madeline Albright rightly called Pakistan a migraine for the whole world.

Its in such times that i envy countries like the US, Australia or the Europe for the kind of neighbours each one of them has.  Each one progressive, democratic, an army that stays in the barracks and not tries to govern, liberalism, freedom of speech, dynamic economies, people who are busy trying to make a better life for themselves and for others. And then look at the sub-continent.  We got nut cases in the form of Pakistan, Bangladesh who themselves have no future but find great happiness in troubling their neighbours.

Perfect example of the fact the Pakistani President, Asif Ali Zardari is not in charge in Pakistan and that the ISI/Army nexus is holding him hostage.

Zardari: The people who did it may be Pakistanis, but it is wrong to say Pakistan did it. We are as much victims as you are.

Zardari: We are not sure people from Pakistan were involved.

Zardari: We will send the ISI chief to India to cooperate with the investigation.

Zardari: We will not send the ISI chief to India.

Zardari: Give us the evidence and we will try these people in our courts.

Am not sure if Pakistan or for that matter any country has laws for people to be tried for crime committed in other countries.  If it was there, half of the Pakistan Army would be in jail.  Afterall, they make a living out of fomenting terror in the neighbourhood.

Mr Terrorist, you wanted us in numbers. Here we are.

Our taxes dont buy bullets.  We dont want to see resignations; we want to see the end of terrorism

Hi Raj, so how much does your Audi cost?  Stop fooling my Maharashtrian brothers and sisters and mind your own business.

No more fear of terrorists. No more crap from politicians.

The lone surviving terrorist captured by the police in the Bombay attack has spilled the details of the people involved in the attack.  All the 10 of them are Pakis.

Soheb (20)
Chota Abdul Rahman (21)
Umar (22)
Abu Ali (23)
Fahadullah (24)
Ismail Khan (25)
Bada Abdul Rahman (25)
Abu Akasha (26)
Umair (28)
Ajmal Amir Kasav – lone surviving terrorist

All the calls from the satellite phone recovered from the terrorists have shown calls been made to Karachi.  The IP Address of the email praising the attacks have been traced back to Lahore.  The lone surviving terrorist in custody is singing like a canary and has indicated the hands of Lashkar-e-Toiba and the rogue intelligence agency of Pakistan, the ISI as complicit in this dastardly attack on innocent civilians.

As usual, the Paki government has refused to accept that they are Pakis.  Its natural for them to behave that way.  They even refused to take back the dead bodies of their own armed forces killed in the Kargil war. Finally, the Indians had to bury the dead Pakis in their own territory.

Meanwhile the influential Muslim Jama Masjid trust has refused to bury the bodies of the 9 dead Paki terrorists anywhere in Bombay.  I think those dead bodies should be thrown into some gutter.  Let the Paki bodies rot there.

In the initial anguish reading about the terrorists strike in the heart of Mumbai, this is what i wrote on a  common forum. Reproducing it here in full.

I wonder what is the difference between the terrorists who attacked the city of Bombay and the goons of Raj / Bal Thackeray who regularly kill, injure people and destroy property just to further their political agenda?

Why dont we feel the same pain and shame when a politician rouses communal fears and tries to divide us and makes us fight among ourselves?

What makes the Indian / Deccan Mujahideen / SIMI / Lashkar  any more dangerous than home grown terror like the VHP, RSS, Shiv Sena, Maoists, the Christian fundamentalists in Eastern India?

Is Advani not responsible enough for all the violence we are facing today due to his role in the Babri Masjid demolition?  Is the Congress not responsible for repeated miscarriage of justice by their pseudo secularism and pandering to the extremist muslims?  Is Narendra Modi not responsible for the 1000s of muslims killed under his watch in the Gujarat riots? Is Congress not responsible for the thousands of Sikhs killed in 1984?

And then, why are we surprised that someone from our own country wants to kill his fellow countrymen?  When he/she asked for justice as his house was being burnt, his sister was being raped, where were we?  Why did we turn a blind eye?

All the miscarriages of justice is finally coming home to roost.

We will still bounce back and am sure of that.  But is it this kind of a society that we want to live in?

Raj Thuggeray, the leader of Maharashtra Napunsak Sena (Maharashtra Eunuch’s Army) and the paper tiger leader of Shiv Sena, Balls Thuggeray are so busy setting up vada pav stalls that they have retreated into the kitchens of their houses. The bloody uncle and nephew team that has held Bombay to ransom over their petty anti-North Indian politics are nowhere to be seen.  The NSG, Marine Commandos, RAF and Black Cats from other states of India have to come down to clean up the mess.  How come the Thuggeray family is not complaining now?  Bloody nincompoops.

Narendra Modi after lording over a state that recently was hit by more than 20 bomb blasts at various places tries to blame the central government saying that they are lenient.  For all his show of bravado, i have never seen a bigger coward.  In any other country, he would have been hung on a pole for being a mass murderer. Advani, the ever colour changing chameleon of Indian politics and the biggest terrorist India has ever produced is also busy fishing in troubled waters.

For all my respect for Manmohan Singh, i should admit that when it comes to internal security, he is the worst PM we ever had.  Sorry Mr Singh, i appreciate your honesty, your work in finance and the Indo-US nuclear deal, but you are pathetic when it comes to the security of our country.  It would be great if you could take your bloody incompetent Home Minister, Shivraj Patil (who might be busy at some clothes shop looking for the shirt to wear in the next press conference), your boss Sonia Gandhi and resign.  Please do us a favour.

What about RAW (Research & Analysis Wing), IB (Intelligence Bureau), the spy agencies who were supposed to smell the conspiracy and nip it in the bud?  We have another incompetent National Security Advisor in Narayanan.  He is so bloody camera happy that he has no qualms shooting off his mouth on TV.  Mr Narayanan, i wish you had the same competency in your work, at least these attacks would have had been stopped.  The RAW & IB has not been able to stop at least 20 attacks in different places of India in the past 2 years.  If they even have a shred of shame, heads should roll in all these 3 organisations.

If you cant bloody well protect us, then get the hell out of your seats.  We do not have a choice and that’s why we go back to our schools, work and daily routine inspite of a bomb blast.  Now that’s been bandied about as the resilience of our people and economy.  And, iam sick of being reminded of my resilience when iam being ruled by spineless and incompetent people who instead of saving me and my family are more busy playing politics hiding beind a bullet proof screen and being swamped by some black cats who put their lives at stake so that ingrates like you can live to see another day.

Raj Thuggeray’s Z category security has been reduced, he is panicking.  The self proclaimed protector of the Marathi manoos is peeing in his pants now realising that there are gangs of youth out there wanting to kill him.  I sincerely hope that the government doesn’t extend security to Raj and expose him to the mob which should lynch him just the same way his mob lynched the poor workers from UP and Bihar.

This whole issue just shows that Raj Thackeray is nothing but a goon.  A simple rowdy sheeter who operates just because he has a few followers who are ready to follow his misguided politics.  Just like his uncle, Bal Thuggeray and cousin, Udhav Thuggeray who never step out of the well called Maharashtra, Raj is just another frog in that well.  If Raj likes to play by the sword, he should be willing to die by it and not go back crying momma to the government asking them to restore his Z category security so that he can continue his politics of hate.

MNS requests Maharashtra governor to restore Raj’s security

A delegation of Maharashtra Navnirman Sena leaders met Maharashtra Governor S C Jamir on Monday, requesting him to restore ‘Z’ category security of MNS chief Raj Thackeray

“We have requested to give ‘Z’ category security to Raj Thackeray, in the wake of continuous threats to him,” MNS leader Shishir Shinde, who led the delegation, told PTI.

Raj’s security was withdrawn by the state government, the delegation told Jamir and requested him to direct the Congress-NCP government to restore the MNS leader’s security. The Governor assured the delegation of taking up Raj’s security issue with the state government.

“It should be the endeavour of political parties to respect the sentiments of every citizen and maintain the unity and integrity of the country,” the Governor told the delegation.
