As a principled political opponent of Benazir Bhutto I have been stumped by my own reaction of her death. On Friday I read her Ghaibana Janazah and felt compelled to do as my tribute to her memory and above all to the Bhutto family. I am still in shock and full of mixed emotions and [...]

Pakistan is bleeding again, a national earthquake has struck all of Pakistan without warning for Pakistan has lost the one and only Benazir Bhutto . My beloved nation is once again torn and shattered. I am not a supporter rather an opponent but her death has shocked one and all. Pakistan is the loser today. [...]

I am deflated at the moment given that the fool in me bought the story hook, line and sinker from the Mush regime regarding the prospect of the Chief Justice reading his Eid prayers at Faisal Mosque. Furthermore the ‘re-arrests’ of our leaders Justice Tariq Mehmood and Aitzaz Ahsan have compounded the pain for all [...]

Emergency Times has just reported that the Chief Justice of Pakistan, Justice Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhry, will offer Eid prayers at the Faisal Mosque, Islamabad, for which he has been granted ‘temporary’ release from his illegal imprisonment. The other Honourable Judges will accompany him as well. Fellow Pakistanis are urged to gather at 7.30am tomorrow at [...]

Tomorrow is being observed as a black day in Pakistan and I urge all readers of this post to show solidarity with the noble struggle in Pakistan to rid us of martial law. Pakistani expatriates can show solidarity with Pakistanis on the ground by simply wearing something black tomorrow. The call has been given by [...]

 I am so angry right now, my blood is boiling, I am full of venom and my whole body and spirit is in an uncontrolled rage for I have once again seen the video of Munir A Malik speaking from PIMS hospital. I cannot say it better than Sophia Ali at Teeth Maestro who says [...]

In his sorry excuse of a lip quivering address to the nation General Musharraf informed the 160m citizens of Pakistan that he was willing to give his life for Pakistan. Little did he know that as he uttered those words, his actions in declaring an ‘emergency’ (its martial law, end of) has sealed his fate. [...]

May the wrath of ALLAH engulf Musharraf and his vile regime. How can he justify putting a gun to the head of 160m people for the sake of his presidency. He is the firawn and as a collective the Pakistan people must be the great MOSES. Arise Pakistan and resist this war crime in your [...]
