Pakistan, Taliban & the “War on Terror”…yawn
Thanks to Anirban for alerting me to “Pakistan on a perilous path” by Mohammad Shehzad (a journalist based in Islamabad).
It reiterates the points that have been made by me & several other commentators in the past [see The “Talibanisation” of Pakistan… and All roads lead to Pakistan…(once again)] but the first and the last sentence are worth reproducing as they form the crux of the argument:
“The recent developments in Pakistan force a person of ordinary prudence to conclude that Islamabad’s role in the war against terror has been a farce that has strengthened the religious bigots while it has weakened civil society.
‘Talibanisation’ used to be Pakistan’s ‘export quality’ product before 9/11. Now it is a domestic product.
…
The US should also know that as long as it continues to support dictators, it will be strengthening terrorists and extremists, because the agenda of both is the same — jehad.”
Well said Mr. Shehzad.

Religion may have played role in murder of NRI family

Los Angeles : Religion could have played a role in the brutal death of two members of an Indian American family last week, according to court papers.
Jayprakash Dhanak, 56, and his 20-year-old daughter Karishma’s badly burned bodies were found last week in a park near the University of California, Irvine. A few hours earlier, Dhanak’s wife, Leela, 53, was found severely beaten outside the family’s Anaheim Hills home, which had been set ablaze.
It has emerged that Dhanak, who was a Hindu, disapproved of his daughter dating Iftekhar Murtaza, 22, a Muslim, the Los Angeles Times reported.
When police arrested Murtaza last Friday at Phoenix airport they found in his possession a one-way air ticket to Bangladesh .
Murtaza had dated the Dhanak’s younger daughter, Shayona, an 18-year-old college student, for about three years, a source close to the investigation, but who was not authorised to speak publicly, told the paper. Shayona had moved out of the Anaheim Hills home and was unharmed.
According to court papers, the young couple had broken up due to family pressure a few weeks before the murders.
Investigators have found records indicating that Murtaza had made calls from his cellphone less than two miles from the crime scene about an hour before the murders, but had told police he was not in Anaheim that day, court records said.
Police investigating the case are still not clear about the exact motive of the attack.
Please take action immediately. Thousands of Hindu Girls are lured , trapped , drugged , raped , blackmailed and converted to Islam by Muslims in India , UK and USA.
Those who try to prevent their innocent daughters from clutches of radical muslims are threated , beaten , harmed and murdered in day light………
Where is RSS , VHP , Bajrang Dal , Shiv Sena , Hindu Babas ……and all those claim to be top brass of Hindu Society ?
May be they are busy preventing any dalit Hindu from entering Temple !
Unite and act now , otherwise more Indian American Hindu Girls will be lured , raped and converted to Islam .
I hope HK will take steps to contact and inform all these Hindu Organisation to take up the matter.

The Muslim conquests, down to the 16th century, were for the Hindus a pure struggle of life and death. Entire cities were burnt down and the populations massacred, with hundreds of thousands killed in every campaign, and similar numbers deported as slaves. Every new invader made (often literally) his hills of Hindus skulls. Thus, the conquest of Afghanistan in the year 1000 was followed by the annihilation of the Hindu population; the region is still called the Hindu Kush, i.e. Hindu slaughter. The Bahmani sultans (1347-1480) in central India made it a rule to kill 100,000 captives in a single day, and many more on other occasions. The conquest of the Vijayanagar empire in 1564 left the capital plus large areas of Karnataka depopulated. And so on.
As a contribution to research on the quantity of the Islamic crimes against humanity, we may mention that the Indian (subcontinent) population decreased by 80 million between 1000 (conquest of Afghanistan) and 1525 (end of Delhi Sultanate)..
But the Indian Pagans were far too numerous and never fully surrendered. What some call the Muslim period in Indian history, was in reality a continuous war of occupiers against resisters, in which the Muslim rulers were finally defeated in the 18th century. Against these rebellious Pagans the Muslim rulers preferred to avoid total confrontation, and to accept the compromise which the (in India dominant) Hanifite school of Islamic law made possible. Alone among the four Islamic law schools, the school of Hanifa gave Muslim rulers the right not to offer the Pagans the sole choice between death and conversion, but to allow them toleration as zimmis (protected ones) living under 20 humiliating conditions, and to collect the jizya (toleration tax) from them. Normally the zimmi status was only open to Jews and Christians (and even that concession was condemned by jurists of the Hanbalite school like lbn Taymiya), which explains why these communities have survived in Muslim countries while most other religions have not. On these conditions some of the higher Hindu castes could be found willing to collaborate, so that a more or less stable polity could be set up. Even then, the collaboration of the Rajputs with the Moghul rulers, or of the Kayasthas with the Nawab dynasty, one became a smooth arrangement when enlightened rulers like Akbar (whom orthodox Muslims consider an apostate) cancelled these humiliating conditions and the jizya tax.
It is because of Hanifite law that many Muslim rulers in India considered themselves exempted from the duty to continue the genocide on the Hindus (self-exemption for which they were persistently reprimanded by their mullahs). Moreover, the Turkish and Afghan invaders also fought each other, so they often had to ally themselves with accursed unbelievers against fellow Muslims. After the conquests, Islamic occupation gradually lost its character of a total campaign to destroy the Pagans. Many Muslim rulers preferred to enjoy the revenue from stable and prosperous kingdoms, and were content to extract the jizya tax, and to limit their conversion effort to material incentives and support to the missionary campaigns of sufis and mullahs (in fact, for less zealous rulers, the jizya was an incentive to discourage conversions, as these would mean a loss of revenue).
Very well explained. Hope we all together can understand the muslims minds and their prophet. There is one book out called understanding…..at faithfreedom site. Please do visit that site to know more about their atrocities, not only on Hindus but on other religions too.
For those who thinks this is the hate message- for them, Please let us understand the truth behind the religion who have slaughtered many innocents and still continues to do all around the world. No body can stop us to see the truth. Once we know the truth we can find the solution. They wants to hide the truth but we are committed to find and analyse the truth. No one can stop us.
Jai Hind
