Cavo ide/sata to usb

Quante volte ci siamo ritrovati con dischi fissi di amici e parenti tra le mani? E sempre la solita richiesta: “Ho quelle foto particolari… me le puoi salvare e formattare?”. Fino a ieri ciò significava mettere mano al case del computer, aprirlo, collegare un cavo ide/sata e una presa dell’alimentatore (in alternativa bisognava spendere dai 30 euro in su per un box metallico esterno). Oggi vi presento una via di mezzo economica che risolverà tutti i vostri problemi di salvataggio!

Il cavo qui presente permette di collegare via USB periferiche IDE/SATA (viene venduto completo di alimentatore e cavi sata) senza dover aprire il computer e con una spesa globale di 10 euro (spedizione inclusa, fonte eBay.it).
Questo adattatore, molto più economico di un box esterno, vi toglie dall’impaccio di viti e case metallici: inoltre vi permette di collegare anche masterizzatori CD/DVD (opzione molto utile nel caso dei pc portatili).
Consente anche la connessione dei dischi fissi da 2,5″ (quelli da portatili), in modo da poter veramente recuperare tutto da qualunque disco voi abbiate.

A volte il masterizzatore del nostro portatile si rompe/non vuol collaborare/legge ma non masterizza: se non abbiamo un altro computer in casa e/o dischi fissi esterni sufficientemente capienti questo cavo ci risolve il problema in pochi secondi, permettendoci di masterizzare qualsiasi cosa ci serva dal nostro portatile.

In questo modo possiamo attaccare vecchi dischi fissi/masterizzatori a qualunque computer senza dover svitare o spostare nulla, salvando i nostri dati sui nostri nuovi dischi e formattando definitivamente quelli da vendere su eBay.
Un cavo che ogni amante di computer dovrebbe avere, una soluzione semplice che rende qualunque periferica esterna anche se interna senza il minimo problema, facendo risparmiare tempo/salute/soldi a chi deve spostare dati importanti su supporti diversi.

L’unica cosa veramente importante è non fare casini con i jumper (quei simpatici pippoli posti sul retro tra il cavo dati e la presa d’alimentazione): se potete inserite il jumper in modalità cable select, in modo che non nascano problemi tra master e slave e il riconoscimento avvenga in modo automatico.

Io l’ho visto la prima volta dal mio negozio d’informatica di fiducia (a cui mi affido quando nascono casini e/o crash di sistema) e me ne sono innamorato, spedizione diretta da Napoli: dopo 2 settimane d’utilizzo posso dire che sono stati i 10 euro meglio spesi ultimamente, consigliato vivamente!

MIAMI (AFP) – ‘Perky’, una pata de Florida que fue tiroteada y sobrevivió dos días encerrada en un refrigerador, burló nuevamente a la muerte al ser declarada fallecida en una sala de operaciones el pasado fin de semana, y resucitar como si nada hubiese pasado.

In presence of Government Army, Pakistani Muslims do not need any enemy!
Ibn-e-Pakistan

Armies of any country or of nation exist to serve two purposes, first and the foremost is to defend its civilian from threats and attacks of enemy and second is to safeguard the interests of its people. Unfortunately, Government armies of Muslim countries exist only to kill their own civilians as “Terrorists” and to protect and serve the interests of Kuffar.

I do not know how and from where to start as there are many facts buried deep down in propaganda of Western and Pakistani media which has led Pakistani patriots and nationalists to believe that “Operation Rah-e-Haq” and then “Operation Rah-e-Nijaat” are Pakistan’s war.

Today we see that our self-proclaimed paid experts are continuously explaining security situation, terrorism in Swat, praising role of military’s operations in tribal areas and putting all blame on foreign supported anti-Pakistan miscreants. Today, whole nation is celebrating the bloodshed and praising death of Pakistani tribal people and dignifying deaths of Pakistani soldiers without thinking beyond the propaganda.

To do justice and to achieve “near correct” opinion we should know the background of any conflict otherwise we can be led astray very easily by any one let alone paid experts to execute particular scripts.

In this article, I will try to summarize:

1. Timeline of events in FATA and Pakistan’s alliance with US-led coalition forces.
2. Role of Pakistan in the light of Quran and Sunnah.
3. Evaluation of projected image of Baitullah Mehsud.
4. Conclusion – yours to decide.

Note:
I tried best possible efforts to keep this article brief and to the point as much as possible but due to massive propaganda and twisted facts and lapse of time, it became difficult to control length and flow of words.

1. TIMELINE OF EVENTS IN FATA SINCE PAKISTAN’S ALLIANCE TO AMERICA

1979 – 1996 From Soviet invasion to Afghan civil war!

In 1979, USSR invades Afghanistan and sets up a puppet pro-Communism government.

Local people start Jihad against invading Soviet forces with little support from tribal people from neighboring border areas of Pakistan. A year later full fledged support from China, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and USA arrived and jihad continued until Soviet forces leave Afghanistan in February 1989.

Evacuation of Afghanistan by Soviets left different factions pursuing for power and ruling authority which resulted in a civil war. In 1994, Mullah Omar sets up Taliban movement of Islamic students who took arms, captured Kandahar and advanced towards Kabul. By the year 1996, Taliban rises as sole ruling authority in Afghanistan in association with Osama bin Laden.

1998 – 2001 US attacks and UN embargos on Taliban Regime

In 1998, first attack on Taliban by US was launched in form of missiles at alleged Qaeda bases seeking revenge of bombings at US Embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.

A year later in 1999, UN imposed air embargo and froze Taliban assets to force them to hand over Osama bin Laden for trial. This was first step towards weakening Taliban regime from inside and two years later, in 2001, US imposed another embargo stopping all supplies of arms to Taliban regime.

Until this time, Pakistan fully endorsed Taliban government and recognized the legitimacy besides Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

2001 – 9/11 happens!

On September 11^th, alleged terrorist attacks happen in New York on World Trade Center and US President George Bush demands immediate handover of Osama bin Laden or warns Taliban regime of dire consequences.

Bush administration continues with aggression and declares that “either the world is with America or is against America” – which meant no neutral stance will be accepted. Threats started to arrive in Islamabad and as admitted by Pervez Musharraf that he succumbed to US demands based on a threat of “bombing Pakistan back to stone ages”.

With agreement to join US as a non-NATO ally in Global War on Terror, he pledged for realigning domestic political institutions to serve U.S. interests; granting the U.S. access to Pakistan’s airfields; and providing all logistic support to US-led NATO and ISAF forces.

Taliban refuse to hand over Osama bin Laden without any evidence or proper trial.

Abdul Salam Zaeef, Taliban ambassador to Pakistan, said on September 21, 2001 that “Our position on this is that if America has proof, we are ready for the trial of Osama bin Laden in light of the evidence.”

Source: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2001/09/11/world/main310852.shtml

And repeated statement was also reported with reference to Abdul Salam Zaeef, in another newspaper:

“We must be given the evidence. If America is not satisfied with our trial of Osama, we are also ready to find another Islamic way of trying him.”

Source: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2001/oct/05/afghanistan.terrorism

In response, George Bush refused Taliban’s offer as “unacceptable, non-negotiable” and warned of consequences if they do not handover Osama bin Laden.

On September 22, 2001, Northern Alliance launches attacks on Taliban and Taliban call for Jihad if US enters Afghanistan. By the month of October 2001, US and British forces start intensive bombing of Taliban’s air defense installations and command centers with support of Government of Pakistan despite of unhappiness of entire Pakistani nation.

2002 – 2004 The betrayal and reprise…

In January Pakistani government hand over Abdul Salam Zaeef, Taliban ambassador, to US authorities. USA denies giving Taliban captives status of “Prisoners of War” thus stripping off all the rights that are available to wartime captives under International Laws and Geneva Conventions.

Pakistani government and intelligence agencies start major crack down against Madaris (religious schools); a number of Pakistani Islamic groups were outlawed; many Al Qaeda and Taliban members and their sympathizers / fund raisers were handed over to US in return for bounty monies fixed by Bush Administration. Pakistani institutions further impound all of the assets belonging to people classified as “terrorists” by Bush Administration.

President Bush links U.S. and Pakistan goals in war against terror. He declares: “Both the United States and Pakistan are threatened by global terror, and we’re determined to defeat it. Since [the] September 11th [2001] attacks, Pakistan has apprehended more than five-hundred al-Qaida and Taliban terrorists.”

Pervez Musharraf says, “Pakistan will not become haven for al-Qaida or other terrorist groups” and “We abhor terrorism in all its forms and manifestations. There is no cause that can be justified or promoted through terrorist acts. And Pakistan is moving against terrorism in its own national interest.”

In July 2002, Pakistani troops entered the Tirah Valley in the Khyber Agency for the first time since Pakistan independence in 1947. They proceeded to move into the Shawal Valley of North Waziristan, and later South Waziristan. The move was reluctantly allowed by tribes after long negotiations on assurance that it would bring development work and funds.

International Media for the first time starts propaganda that “Taliban members who’ve fled Afghanistan and Al Qaeda operatives are reportedly “re-Talibanizing” in Pakistan”, “Al Qaeda has improved its abilities to plan global attacks and build new training compounds in Pakistan’s tribal areas, which have become virtual havens for the terrorist network.” – Pakistan denied these reports.

Pakistani military starts hunt for Qaeda and Taliban commanders in March 2004 and after retaliation from Waziri tribes suffered heavy losses and casualties, finally resorted to cease-fire agreement in April 2004.

In June 2004, Nek Mohammad (Commander of Taliban in Pakistan and predecessor of Baitullah Mehsud) gets slain in US drone attack.

2005 – 2006 Betrayal continues!

The Taliban begins to regroup in larger numbers and continue to attack US troops in Afghanistan, making it the deadliest year for US troops since the war began in 2001. White House becomes increasingly irritated with Pakistani tribal areas for fueling Taliban and Al Qaeda. Propaganda against Tribal areas of Pakistan catches more fire.

A top U.N. envoy in Afghanistan said the Taliban insurgency there was being aided by money and fighters coming across the border from Pakistan. The Commander of the U.S. Central Command, Gen. Abizaid, held meetings with top Pakistani leaders in Islamabad.

Cease-fire agreement between Islamabad and Islamic militants in North Waziristan was extended for another month and then again for further two weeks. Recall that first ever operation launched by Pakistani army is not “Rah-e-Haq” or “Rah-e-Raast” – in fact, first operation was launched in hunt of Al Qaeda and Taliban commanders in March 2004 and later due to humiliating defeat, Pakistani army resorted to cease-fire agreement after one month in April 2004.

Negotiations between government and tribal leaders in North Waziristan reportedly reached an impasse over the demands for “compensation” for damages caused by military operations in the region.

In the month of September 2006, Pakistani government and militants in North Waziristan signed a truce to ensure “permanent peace” in the region. Under the deal, the Taliban of Pakistan vowed to distance themselves from foreign militants and to end the cross-border movement of militants into Afghanistan, while government forces agreed to refrain from further military operations in the area and to withdraw from numerous check posts. However, a senior Pakistani official said the truce would not prevent the army from “taking surgical action” against any renewed militant activities.

President Bush said he would order U.S. forces to enter Pakistan if he received good intelligence on Osama bin Laden’s location.

2007 – 2008 “Operation Silence” and other key events

Major efforts done by Pakistani army and other developments include:

• Security forces arrested 16 suspected Taliban from Pishin Bazaar in Baluchistan.
• Pakistan army attacked and destroyed supply trucks in North Waziristan used by militants for cross-border attacks in Afghanistan.
• Pakistan Army helicopter gunships attacked a suspected militant hideout in South Waziristan early on January 16-morning. Helicopter gun-ships targeted a cluster of compounds at Salamt village in the Zamzola area, 30km to the east of Razmak in South Waziristan killing most of the people inside and it used to be an Arab-dominated hideout.
• In July 2007, Commandos of Pakistani army carried out operation silence in Lal Masjid killing unknown number of people including Maulana Ghazi (shaheed).
• Al Qaeda’s second-in command Ayman al Zawahri, in an internet video posted, called for revenge over a government assault that killed more than 70 militants inside the Islamabad-based Lal Masjid. “This crime can only be washed by repentance or blood,” Zawahri said in the video posted on web sites used by Islamists. “If you do not retaliate … (President General Pervez) Musharraf will not spare any of you,” he said, addressing Pakistani Muslims and their clerical leaders.
• At least 15 militants were killed during military operations that targeted militant hideouts near the Mir Ali town in North Waziristan including unconfirmed reports that an Iraqi national Abu Akasha, a suspected al Qaeda operative, may have been the target of the military operation.
• Another attack by Army gunship helicopters in Shawal area of North Waziristan kills 40 alleged militants.
• The increasing number of suicide attacks in Afghanistan is often carried out by young Afghan men who pass through religious schools in Pakistan, a United Nations report sai
• USA’s intelligence agency National Intelligence stated that al Qaeda continues to recruit Europeans for explosives training in Pakistan because Europeans can more easily enter the United States without a visa.
• Director of National Intelligence, Mike McConnell, said that European al Qaeda recruits in the border region of Pakistan are being trained to use commercially available substances to make explosives, and they may be able to carry out an attack on U.S. territory.
• The US military said that it expected al Qaeda to continue its “re-emergence in sanctuaries in Pakistan’s tribal areas from where it supported attacks in Afghanistan”. “Sanctuary was provided to al Qaeda and Taliban militants after Islamabad signed a peace deal with them in a desperate attempt to quell the unrest in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas in September 2006”, a US military official claimed.
• In October 2007, Taliban commander Baitullah Mehsud executed three soldiers from a group of more than 250 taken hostage in September 2007 in South Waziristan and vowed to carry out more executions if the government continued the “Mehsud tribes’ humiliation”. The bodies of the three soldiers were found on the Wana-Jandola road in Jandola near the border with South Waziristan.
• Year 2007 witness first ever military conflict in Swat valley and a cease-fire was reached in February 2009.

In a statement, US Assistant Secretary of State Richard Boucher said in Islamabad on January 12 that “Pakistan has not succeeded despite signing an agreement with tribal people in North Waziristan as terrorists are still going into Afghanistan.”

“At least 700 Taliban activists have crossed from Pakistan into Afghanistan to reinforce militants attacking a key dam, a major source of electricity and irrigation”, a provincial governor in Afghanistan said, “We have got confirmed reports that they are Pakistani, Uzbek and Chechen nationals and have sneaked in,” Helmand Governor Asadullah Wafa told Reuters.

Pakistan refuted a claim that there was al Qaeda’s base command in the tribal areas and declared that the government was determined to take action against ‘remnants’ of the group who may be hiding in the country.

“Al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden is alive and sheltering in the lawless parts of Pakistan on the border with Afghanistan”, US National Intelligence Director Mike McConnell said. In response, Pakistan’s Interior Minister Aftab Ahmed Sherpao told AFP “Our stance is that Osama bin Laden is not present in Pakistan… If anyone has the information he should give it to us, so that we can apprehend him.”

Frances Townsend, Homeland Security Adviser to President George W. Bush, said that the US would consider using military force to neutralize alleged al Qaeda hideouts in Pakistan.

The pro-Taliban groups warned Pakistani soldiers to quit fighting or face the “gift of death” through new suicide attacks. In pamphlets, distributed in Miranshah town, entitled “Till Islam Lives in Islamabad” a group calling itself the Mujahideen-i-Islam threatened that suicide bombs would again bring soldiers the “gift of death”. They warned that suicide attackers “love death more than you love your 5,000-rupee salary, nude pictures of Indian actresses and liquor.” It added “We know that you have become America’s slave and are serving infidel Musharraf and have become a traitor to your religion for food, clothes and shelter.”

Pakistan said it would not allow any attack by the United States on the FATA in a hunt for al Qaeda, saying the counter-terrorism measures would be taken by its own security forces.

Taliban fighters attack a US military base, Camp Salerno, in Bamiyan. In another daring attack, 10 French paratroopers are killed and more than 20 are wounded in an ambush by about 100 fighters about 30 miles east of Kabul.

In August 2007, US-led security forces and Afghan troops attacked Taliban positions inside Pakistan in fresh clashes that left at least 19 militants dead, security forces said. The US-led coalition said it received permission from Pakistan to attack across the border on August 25, but this was denied by the chief military spokesperson in Islamabad.

In October 2007 – The White House released a national strategy for combating terrorism, terming Pakistan as an al Qaeda safe haven, which can be used for launching another 9/11 like attack inside the United States. This is the first time that the country has been named as an al Qaeda safe haven in a White House policy document. Al Qaeda has “protected its top leadership, replenished operational lieutenants, and regenerated a safe haven in Pakistan’s Federally Administered Tribal Areas — core capabilities that would help facilitate another attack on the Homeland,” the document said.

October 2007 – The PAF warplanes continued attacking localities of Mir Ali subdivision in North Waziristan targeting Haiderkhel, Ipi, Hasukhel, Musaki, Mullagan, Hurmaz, Zeeraki, Khushali and other villages of the area.

November 2007 – Pro-Taliban commander Baitullah Mehsud released over 200 soldiers who had been taken hostage in South Waziristan on August 30, 2007. Military spokesman Major General Waheed Arshad said, “The 211 soldiers the militants have released reached Wana” He also confirmed that the government had released 25 militants including a relative of slain Taliban commander Abdullah Mehsud, Sohail Zeb, in exchange for the soldiers’ release. Officials said the soldiers and militants had been exchanged through jirga (tribal council) members at Tiarza tehsil (revenue division), 25 kilometres northeast of Wana.

January 2008 – The Pentagon is extremely concerned about al Qaeda operations in Pakistan, said US military chief Admiral Michael Mullen. “We know it is having a significant impact, not just in Afghanistan, but certainly there are concerns about how much they have turned inward inside Pakistan. I am extremely concerned about this” – he told a press conference.

January 2008 – Even as Pakistani troops continued targeting militants’ positions in South Waziristan, Baitullah Mehsud, chief of the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan, warned of serious repercussions if the military operations were not stopped. His spokesman Maulana Umar said: “The government wants to enter the Mehsud area by force. But it must take into account the consequences of such a harsh action”. He accused the security forces of ‘killing innocent people’ and ‘damaging their homes’ and warned that the government would have to “pay a heavy price”.

January 2008 – Taliban Commander Baitullah Mehsud said in an interview with Al Jazeera’s Admad Zaidan Al Jazeera bureau chief in Islamabad at an undisclosed location that “Pervez Musharraf is working for the interests of the nonbelievers and we will fight back to teach him a lesson“. Mehsud said the Taliban coalition was carrying out a “defensive jihad”. “The army is bombarding our houses and fighting with us,” he said, adding “We have formed this coalition to guarantee the safety of civilians.“

January 2008 – Senior al Qaeda commander Abu Laith Al-Libi killed in Pakistan and according to the US official, “not far below the importance of the top two al Qaeda leaders – Osama bin Laden and Ayman Al-Zawahiri”.

February 2008 – The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan said that they were ready for peace talks with the new Government, but only if it rejected President Pervez Musharraf’s “war on terror” in the country’s tribal belt. A TTP spokesman quoted Baitullah Mehsud as calling for negotiations with parties that beat the president’s allies in elections. “The Taliban movement welcomes the victory of anti-Musharraf political parties… and announces its willingness to enter into negotiations with them for bringing peace,” Taliban spokesman Maulana Omar said, quoting a statement by Mehsud. He urged the new administration to “avoid repeating the mistakes of the Musharraf government.”

March 2008 – The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan said that it was ready for talks with the Government, provided that Islamabad reverses its pro-American policies.

April 2008 – Ahmad Shah alias Mullah Ismail, a Taliban commander blamed for the deadliest attack on US troops since they entered Afghanistan in 2001, was killed in a shootout with security forces in Pakistan, US and Pakistani officials said. Police killed Ahmad Shah at a roadblock near Peshawar, an unnamed senior Pakistani intelligence official said.

April 2008 – There is “strong evidence” that al Qaeda operatives are present in the Tribal Areas along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, said British Foreign Secretary David Miliband.

April 2008 – Ayman al-Zawahiri, widely considered to be number two in the al Qaeda, criticised Muslims for failing to support Islamist insurgencies in Iraq and elsewhere in a new audiotape posted on the Internet. In several parts of the audio message, al-Zawahiri claimed that Taliban took over 95 per cent of Afghanistan and was sweeping Pakistan as well. “The Crusaders and their agents in Pakistan and Afghanistan are starting to fall,” al-Zawahiri said.

April 2008 – The leader of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), Baitullah Mehsud, ordered his militants to “immediately cease their activities” in the FATA and NWFP. “Baitullah Mehsud has issued directives to all his comrades that in order to restore peace in the region, they should cease their activities forthwith both in the tribal region as well as the settled districts of the NWFP” said a pamphlet released on April 23. “He has warned that his directives should be complied with and those violating them will be publicly punished”, it said.

April 2008 – Baitullah Mehsud, chief of the TTP, has temporarily suspended talks with the Government over the army’s refusal to withdraw from the FATA, his spokesman announced. The cease-fire announced by Mehsud last week would continue, spokesman Maulana Umar added.

May 2008 – The United States said that it wanted Pakistan to live up to its commitment of urgently bringing security under control in the FATA, allegedly used as a safe haven by al Qaeda and Taliban militants. Deputy Secretary of State John Negroponte said Islamabad recognized that bringing the mountainous and un-policed FATA under control was an urgent priority for Pakistan’s own sake.

June 2008 – Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani condemned the air strike by the US-led forces on a Frontier Corps security post in the Sheikh Baba area along the Afghan border in Mohmand tribal region on June 10 and said his government would ensure the sovereignty of the country. At least 11 paramilitary soldiers and 10 militants were killed in the air strike.

June 2008 – Afghanistan President Hamid Karzai, threatened to send Afghan troops across the border to fight Taliban militants in Pakistan. Accusing Pakistan of sheltering most of the fighters involved in recent incidents in the Garmser District of Helmand Province, he told a News Conference that Afghanistan had the right to self-defence, and because militants cross over from Pakistan “to come and kill Afghans and kill coalition troops, it exactly gives us the right to do the same”.

July 2008 – US Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff has said al Qaeda is regrouping in the border areas of Pakistan.

July 2008 – The Afghan Foreign Minister Rangin Dadfar Spanta told the UN Security Council that a key factor behind the worsening security in his country was “the de facto truce” in neighbouring Pakistan’s tribal areas. “One of the main factors contributing to the deterioration of the security situation in the country is the de facto truce in the tribal areas beyond the border”.

July 2008 – The NATO-led troops in Afghanistan used attack helicopters and artillery to fire into Pakistan after coming under rocket attacks from the Pakistani side of the border, the alliance force said. The counter-attack on July 15 was launched from Afghanistan’s Paktika province, which adjoins Pakistan’s North Waziristan.

July 2008 – Up to 40 commanders of al Qaeda were arrested during military operations in Hangu and Bara.

She also said Pakistan must “better handle on what’s going on in the Northwest Frontier, because that is the place from which the Taliban is resurgent”.

December 2008 – Afghanistan and Pakistan decide to form joint strategy to combat Taliban fighters in their border regions.

In June 2009 Operation Rah-e-Nijat started where Pakistani military has begun a massive troop build-up encircling Waziristan agency for which there are many reports that US is pressurizing Pakistan to carryout operation in Wazir agency.

2. ROLE OF PAKISTAN IN THE LIGHT OF QURAN AND SUNNAH

Pakistan’s abandonment of Afghan Muslims was justified as “Sab se pehle Pakistan” – a slogan that stems from “national spirit and patriotism” and submission to US aggression which included following all commands of American.

There are clear rulings of Islam that prohibit Muslims from helping Kuffar in times of war. Scholars of Islam have stated that it is not permitted to support the kafirs against the Muslims, and that that is kufr (disbelief) and riddah (apostasy), because Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“O you who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians as Awliyaa’ (friends, protectors, helpers), they are but Awliyaa’ of each other. And if any amongst you takes them (as Awliyaa’), then surely, he is one of them” [al-Maa'idah 5:51]

The fuqaha’ of Islam, the imams of the Hanafi, Maaliki, Shaafa’i and Hanbali mazahib, and other fuqaha’, have stated in their books that it is Haram to sell them anything that may help them against the Muslims, such as weapons, equipment, riding vehicles, etc. So it is not permissible to give them food or to sell them food, drink, water, tents, trucks, vehicles, or to make contracts with them to provide maintenance, transaportation, etc. All of that is haram.

It is not permissible to give them anything that may give them the slightest help against the Muslims. Al-Nawawi said in al-Majmoo’:

With regard to selling weapons to ahl al-harb (those who wage war against the Muslims), it is haram according to scholarly consensus.

In al-Mawsoo’ah al-Fiqhiyyah (25/153) it says:

It is haram to sell weapons to ahl al-harb (those who are waging war against Islam) or to those who are known as bandits who attack Muslims or who stir up fitnah among them. Al-Hasan al-Basri said: It is not permissible for a Muslim to take weapons or horses to the enemies of the Muslims which will strengthen them against the Muslims or anything that will help them to acquire weapons and horses, because selling weapons to ahl al-harb strengthens them to fight the Muslims and motivates them to declare war and continue fighting.

This issue is not the matter of ordinary or minor sins, rather it is a matter that has to do with the basis of ‘aqeedah (belief) and Tawheed (belief in the Oneness of Allah), and the Muslim’s support and loyalty towards the Religion of Allah and his disavowal of the enemies of Allah. This is what was stated by the imams in their books.

Shaykh ‘Abd al-‘Azeez ibn Baaz (may Allah have mercy on him) said in his Fataawa (1/274):

The scholars of Islam are unanimously agreed that whoever supports the Kafirs against the Muslims and helps them in any way is a Kafir.

Once the status of the acts or policies chosen by Pakistan are established then second important aspect is that Pakistan and Pakistani Army are under government and control of Munafiqun who are clearly ruling against what Allah has commanded.

One point of consensus among Ulema is that it is obligatory on Muslims to remove rulers upon whom “Kufr” has been established either through a peaceful process or by use of force. Ulema have difference of opinion on the conditions that establish “Kufr”.

All in all, whether or not armed rebellion is recommended or not, it is clear that role chosen by Pakistani government despite of entire Pakistani nation and mercenary role played by military of Pakistan is against the teachings of Quran and Sunnah.

Another point worth noting is that we cannot say that only culprits are Generals while soldiers are innocent because the discipline in army is highly demanding, there is no dissent, no strife within, no coup de-tats for power from within the structure. So everyone in the army is highly supportive of the status quo and would do nothing within his power to bring a change there in.

For example, how Islamic minded people were massacred in Lal Masjid? It was not Generals who stormed the Masjid, but the foot soldiers and commandos of military. Those who claim that these soldiers are staunch Muslims then why did soldiers followed wrong orders of Generals?

As said in Quran:

“If any do fail to judge by the light of what Allah has revealed, they are no better than the kafirs” [al-Maa'idah 5:44]

Similarly, in Quran at numerous points it is clearly mentioned that:

“Those who believe, fight in the Cause of Allâh, and those who disbelieve, fight in the cause of Tâghût (Satan, etc.). So fight you against the friends of Shaitân (Satan); Ever feeble indeed is the plot of Shaitân (Satan)” [an-Nisa 4:76]

“O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people.” [al-Maa'idah 5:51]

“You will see many of them befriending those who disbelieve; certainly evil is that which their souls have sent before for them, that Allah became displeased with them and in chastisement shall they abide.” [al-Maa'idah 5:80]

“Let not the believers take for friends or helpers Unbelievers rather than believers: if any do that, in nothing will there be help from Allah” [aal-e-Imran 3:28]

Now a person might have perverted ideologies about national security and delusions of the same sort, which he/she might use to justify the actions of the army of Pakistan including stance taken by Pakistan as a state but it is all a sham (fraud) and if he/she is not biased or bigoted than the truth is clearly visible.

Lastly, let us see how much sincere Pakistani government was with tribal people:

Bad intentions of Pakistan’s corrupt Government and Mercenary Generals

Before going any further, note a point that Sufi Mohammad was once arrested during early 90s and then in late 90s for his Tehreek Niffaz-e-Shariat Mohammadi (TSNM) and finally arrested for the third time by Musharraf regime in 2000 to remain in captivity for eight years.

In an interview to a foreign media reporter, Mr. Hussain Haqqani said,

“President Zardari did something very smart. When he was with President Obama recently, he explained it. He actually told the American government that I’m going to do this deal to try and prove to those within Pakistan, and in Pakistan’s state apparatus, who think that these guys can be negotiated with — I will negotiate with them only to prove that you can’t negotiate with them, because they will break the deal. And as soon as they broke the deal, the army is back in, the fighting is going on, and you can see the results.”

http://thelede.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/05/14/pakistans-daily-show-diplomacy/?hp

It clearly shows the insincerity of Pakistani Government and who knows the ones who ran over Buner on the next day of peace deal were indeed Baitullah Mehsud’s people or some government hired people to create chaos to justify beginning of a military operation in Swat?

This should be enough on role of Pakistan as a mercenary state, a character that is worse than that of Israel towards Palestinians.

3. EVALUATION OF PROJECTED IMAGE OF COMMANDER BAITULLAH MEHSUD

Claim no. 1 – Baitullah is a CIA agent logistically supported by RAW of India.

So-called security experts and defense analysts on Pakistani media do not get tired when they are asked to dry their throats by speaking on “Who is Baitullah Mehsud?”

A majority of average Pakistanis have been fed and indoctrinated through a successful media campaign that Baitullah Mehsud is an Indian supported anti-Pakistan barbarian who slits throat of innocent Pakistani soldiers to terrorize entire nation.

If we refer back to the timeline above without any bias, we can see that it is the Pakistani military that charged over tribal areas under American support in 2002, a full fleshed operation was started in March 2004 (which resulted in a humiliating defeat) and then strife continued off and on, Baitullah’s lashkar captured and released Pak Soldiers and FC footmen under various peace deals without harming them and he has also been sending warning that either the operation and humiliation of tribal people should stop under US pressure or he will start killing soldiers and FC footmen who follow un-Islamic orders of Pakistani Generals.

These security experts and defense analysts use justification of “no drone attacks on Baitullah network” to prove that he is a foreign supported terrorist. They claim that while USA has been targeting pro-Afghan Taliban tribesmen using unmanned drones but USA never deliberately targeted Baitullah Mehsud or his network.

Now let us see that how much full of lies the claims of these experts are.

In a report published by Long War Journal, summarizing history of US drone attacks in Pakistan, it is mentioned that as of July 2009, 50% of total drone attacks were made in Baitullah Mehsud’s area of South Waziristan and about 38% of total drone attacks were made in North Waziristan thus out of total, 88% of drone attacks were made against Waziristan agency which is the home town of Baitullah Mehsud and before his death under a drone attack, former Commander of Taliban Pakistan, Nek Mohammad was also killed in a drone attack in June 2004 later his brother Abdullah Mehsud – an ex-Guantanamo Bay detainee, was killed in battle with Pakistani forces somewhere in Baluchistan.

Source: See chart nos. 4 of 5 and 5 of 5 at:
http://www.longwarjournal.org/multimedia/US-Predator-Strikes-in-Pakistan/index.html

Commander-wise summary of drone attacks in Pakistan:

Figures as of July 18, 2009

From above, we can clearly see that USA was desperate to kill Baitullah Mehsud and Mullah Nazir for their support to Afghan Taliban and later they were dragged into a fighting front with Pakistani forces for attacking tribal areas to support US-led coalition forces in Afghanistan. Unfortunately, none of these figures was ever discussed in our media by so-called paid experts who did a great job in serving interests of Kuffar in getting these Taliban Commanders declared as “Anti-Pakistan Terrorists”.

Claim no. 2 – USA never wanted to kill Baitullah Mehsud and his death by US drone was an unintentional mishap on part of USA.

This is another blatant lie by our self-proclaimed experts. Another report from Long War Journal mentions:

“And an overwhelming number of strikes – nearly 90 percent – have taken place against al Qaeda and Taliban targets in North and South Waziristan.”

And

“In 14 strikes, the US reportedly attempted to target a specific Taliban or al Qaeda leader (or leaders), but failed to kill the intended target. These strikes have included two failed attempts to kill Ayman al-Zawahiri – who is thought to be hiding somewhere in the Taliban-controlled areas of the tribal agencies – as well as TWO ATTEMPTS TO TAKE OUT BAITULLAH MEHSUD, the leader of the Movement of the Taliban in Pakistan, who is based in South Waziristan. It was not possible to determine if High Value Targets were targeted in the remaining 45 strikes.”

And

“Some of the most important al Qaeda and Taliban leaders killed by US airstrikes include: Abu Jihad al Masri, the chief of al Qaeda’s intelligence council; Abu Sulayman Jazairi, the chief of al Qaeda’s external operations branch; Khalid Habib, the commander of al Qaeda’s paramilitary Shadow Army; Osama al Kini, the head of al Qaeda’s operations in Pakistan; Abu Laith al Libi, the commander of Brigade 055; Abu Khabab al Masri, the chief of al Qaeda’s WMD program; Abu Hamza Rabai, al Qaeda’s operations chief in Pakistan; and Nek Mohammed, the leader of the Taliban in South Waziristan.”

You should re-read above paragraph where it says that “at least two attempts were made to take out Commander Baitullah Mehsud”.

Source: http://www.longwarjournal.org/archives/2009/07/us_predator_strikes_3.php

It is known that Commander Baitullah Mehsud emerged and sole commanding authority of Waziristan thus he was indeed al Qaeda and Taliban fighter not an US agent. This is the most furious lie from Pakistani experts.

And further to prove that many false claims by these highly paid experts, let us see other key commanders of Baitullah killed by US air strikes inside Pakistan:

Nek Mohammed, killed on June 18, 2004 – A senior Taliban commander in South Waziristan who had links to Osama bin Laden and Mullah Omar.

Liaquat Hussain, killed on October 30, 2006 – second-in-command of Bajaur Tehreek Niffaz-e-Shariat Mohammadi.

Kifayatullah Anikhel, killed on July 7, 2009 – a Taliban commander under Baitullah Mehsud.

Khwaz Ali Mehsud, killed on June 23, 2009 – a senior deputy to Baitullah Mehsud.

Now I do not see what other than dollars made our experts ignore these facts. In another summary of US drone attacks maintained at Wikipedia – not less than fifty (50) attacks were made by US in Waziristan.

See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drone_attacks_on_Pakistan_by_the_United_States_of_America

Claim no. 3 – Baitullah Mehsud is a terrorist not a Mujahid.

Let us see other sources too so that you realize that Baitullah Mehsud was a Mujahid and not a terrorist – although his fellows may be committed some mistakes due to lack of Islamic knowledge but that’s a separate matter and the primary responsibility of such mistakes should fall on shoulders of Ulema who have resorted to poisonous silence.

In a report by World Socialist Web on Pakistan it is mentioned,

“Bowing to the pressure from the Obama administration, the Islamabad government led by the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) and the military launched a brutal offensive on April 26 in the Swat Valley and adjoining districts in the North Western Frontier Province (NWFP).”

Further it says,

“Meeting with Pakistan’s Army Chief General Ashfaq Parvez Kayani on Tuesday, Holbrooke again praised the military for the Swat offensive, while demanding that it press ahead.“

At another point the report says,

“The US war in Afghanistan and in the Pakistan border area is destabilizing the whole country and will have far reaching implications for the entire South Asian region. This is underscored by the increasing mass opposition to the US presence as well as to the PPP-led government in Islamabad.”

Source: http://www.wsws.org/articles/2009/aug2009/paki-a22.shtml

Another report published in Los Angeles Times said,

“For years, Al Qaeda and the Pakistani Taliban have nurtured a symbiotic relationship that has paid off for both militant groups. The Taliban provided Al Qaeda and its leaders sanctuary within the rugged wasteland of Pakistan’s tribal areas along the Afghan border. In turn, Al Qaeda trained and helped finance its host.”

It should solve the lie and myth of India financial hardcore Islamists.

“Now, with the purported death of Taliban leader Baitullah Mahsud and his organization temporarily rudderless, Al Qaeda finds itself made vulnerable by the disarray plaguing its patron, experts and Pakistani intelligence sources say. It’s a window of opportunity that neither Pakistan nor the United States can afford to neglect.”

Source: http://mobile.latimes.com/inf/infomo?view=World+News+Item&feed:a=latimes_1min&feed:c=worldnews&feed:i=48686942&nopaging=1

This should clarify on whose instructions this operation was started and later on how media was used to cover it up so that people of Pakistan do not stand up against Army for killing civilians of Pakistan.

Culprit defense and security analysts using banner of Islam succeeded to fool hundreds of thousands of Pakistanis. If Baitullah Mehsud was really an agent then I must say he was the biggest fool we would ever know because the terms on which he became agent were highly unfavorable for him and for his tribesmen that on one side Pak Army is killing his tribesmen and on the other US drones are hitting him hard that up to 88% of total are attacking his home towns and despite of Baitullah’s allegedly agent role, all the dollars kept flowing to PPP government and Mercenary Army.

Pakistan’s paid military assets appearing as experts are leading entire nation astray

Unfortunately, Pakistani people have long been waiting for a leader who would come and rescue them from all miseries. If you notice that in our media any person, who speaks against India, Israel and American becomes an instant hero.

Talking with reference to Pakistan’s self proclaimed defense and security analysts [I wonder who gives them this designation], there is a complete blue print these people follow, first they say what people want to listen on issues like corruption, problems of Pakistan, typical anti-Israel and anti-India slogans, then few programs on Islam – that’s all to become hero of Pakistani nation. When these people are certain that their propaganda has created fans and enough number of people subscribing to their ideas and beliefs then they start to IMPLANT information as and when required by their paying masters.

4. CONCLUSION – you to decide

Propaganda in media is at the height of its peak and experts’ reports on Pakistani channels contradict many facts that should be enough to expose their filthy objectives.

Unfortunately, facts are buried deep down due to overwhelming propaganda. None of the facts included in this write-up could make their place in mainstream media for reasons which are clearly visible including a fact that this entire media is controlled by the powers of Taghoot.

One might think why British Foreign Secretary had to say, “Pakistan’s fight against terror on right trajectory” [Source: http://geo.tv/9-8-2009/48856.htm]

And, US State Department has praised that the Pakistan Army has had “a very serious and concerted effort to dismantle extremist elements” [Source: http://samaa.tv/News12298-Pakistan_Army_making_serious_effort_US.aspx]

Why American and British officials are praising military operation in tribal areas? Why they are happy for on going efforts by army against so-called extremists and terrorists?

It should now be clear that all of this propaganda in Pakistan is being carried out to gather support for military operations based on American wishes and commands to avoid American wrath – no matter even if these operation result in merciless coldblooded massacre of orthodox Islamic tribal people of Pakistan who have a proud history of not bowing down to invading super powers.

Our problem as nation is we have been entangled in chasing basic necessities of life and due to this, we have lost willingness to read alternative news sources to at least verify that whatever our media and self-proclaimed experts are spreading is truth or bunch of fabricated lies which can be easily caught if we think beyond the propaganda.

Last words…

This is all I have to say, I am a homeland loving Pakistani but Islam comes first and from historical facts of decade, I can see that whose interests Pakistan Army and ISI have been serving and against whom Pakistani Generals have been helping the Kuffar — my patriotism has not blinded me.

Pakistan is not fighting a war that belongs to her and as long as Pakistan does not officially corrects her Afghan policy – I do not believe that ISI is silently working behind the doors to support Jihad against USA in Afghanistan behind the doors.

There cannot be peace in Pakistan as USA will always try to drag Pakistan into war because Taliban in Afghanistan are badly beating US soldiers and besides this, we have to pay Kuffara of deaths of thousands of innocent Afghan Muslims who were bombed to martyrdom by Pakistan’s support under a slogan of “Pakistan First” and our army provided all logistic support including Chowkidari of NATO supply routes and attacking tribesmen who would attack NATO supply vehicles.

If we look at past, it would be clear that Generals in Pak Army are blood thirsty lunatics who pursue power and ruling authority, first they massacred Bengalis in East Pakistan (research on aristocracies on your own), resultantly we lost East Pakistan, then Army charged on Urdu speaking people in Karachi and thousands were murdered, then they charged over Lal Masjid (in this case some may say that Maulana Ghazi made a mistake but in any case that mistake was not big enough to commit a massacre in darkness of night and bury the hundreds of dead while hiding all facts. Why their faces were not shown to Media? Why their details were not released? And now we see Army charging against own civilians in Swat. Result could be the same as of a map shown in Pakistani media that showed NWFP separate from Pakistan.

You should also note that all of the operations committed by Army were very tactically handled that opponents were very successfully labeled as “terrorists” by media, be it Bengali, Urdu Speaking supports of a political party, Lal Masjid clerics or people of Swat. There is a complete blue print that these mercenary generals and their shameless experts in media follow to fool Pakistanis to justify their wrong acts and to justify that it is “terrorists” this army is fighting.

I pray that may Allah help Pakistanis in realizing this game and step forward to publicly punish corrupt politicians of Pakistan and burn alive the mercenary generals of Pakistan to take revenge of thousands of deaths in Afghanistan and now in FATA.

May Allah’s lanat on those who create false propaganda against Mujahideen and may Allah’s fierce azaab on Munafiqun who portray themselves as Islamic to appear as “Rahbar” but in fact are “Rahzan” to mislead people, may Allah grant glorious victory to those who are fighting in the name of the Almighty and supremacy and implementation of Islam.

In presence of Government Army, Pakistani Muslims do not need any enemy!
Ibn-e-Pakistan

Armies of any country or of nation exist to serve two purposes, first and the foremost is to defend its civilian from threats and attacks of enemy and second is to safeguard the interests of its people. Unfortunately, Government armies of Muslim countries exist only to kill their own civilians as “Terrorists” and to protect and serve the interests of Kuffar.

I do not know how and from where to start as there are many facts buried deep down in propaganda of Western and Pakistani media which has led Pakistani patriots and nationalists to believe that “Operation Rah-e-Haq” and then “Operation Rah-e-Nijaat” are Pakistan’s war.

Today we see that our self-proclaimed paid experts are continuously explaining security situation, terrorism in Swat, praising role of military’s operations in tribal areas and putting all blame on foreign supported anti-Pakistan miscreants. Today, whole nation is celebrating the bloodshed and praising death of Pakistani tribal people and dignifying deaths of Pakistani soldiers without thinking beyond the propaganda.

To do justice and to achieve “near correct” opinion we should know the background of any conflict otherwise we can be led astray very easily by any one let alone paid experts to execute particular scripts.

In this article, I will try to summarize:

1. Timeline of events in FATA and Pakistan’s alliance with US-led coalition forces.

1.         TIMELINE OF EVENTS IN FATA SINCE PAKISTAN’S ALLIANCE TO AMERICA

1979 – 1996 From Soviet invasion to Afghan civil war!

In 1979, USSR invades Afghanistan and sets up a puppet pro-Communism government.

Local people start Jihad against invading Soviet forces with little support from tribal people from neighboring border areas of Pakistan. A year later full fledged support from China, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and USA arrived and jihad continued until Soviet forces leave Afghanistan in February 1989.

Evacuation of Afghanistan by Soviets left different factions pursuing for power and ruling authority which resulted in a civil war. In 1994, Mullah Omar sets up Taliban movement of Islamic students who took arms, captured Kandahar and advanced towards Kabul. By the year 1996, Taliban rises as sole ruling authority in Afghanistan in association with Osama bin Laden.

1998 – 2001 US attacks and UN embargos on Taliban Regime

In 1998, first attack on Taliban by US was launched in form of missiles at alleged Qaeda bases seeking revenge of bombings at US Embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.

A year later in 1999, UN imposed air embargo and froze Taliban assets to force them to hand over Osama bin Laden for trial. This was first step towards weakening Taliban regime from inside and two years later, in 2001, US imposed another embargo stopping all supplies of arms to Taliban regime.

Until this time, Pakistan fully endorsed Taliban government and recognized the legitimacy besides Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

 2001 – 9/11 happens!

On September 11^th, alleged terrorist attacks happen in New York on World Trade Center and US President George Bush demands immediate handover of Osama bin Laden or warns Taliban regime of dire consequences.

Bush administration continues with aggression and declares that “either the world is with America or is against America” – which meant no neutral stance will be accepted. Threats started to arrive in Islamabad and as admitted by Pervez Musharraf that he succumbed to US demands based on a threat of “bombing Pakistan back to stone ages”.

With agreement to join US as a non-NATO ally in Global War on Terror, he pledged for realigning domestic political institutions to serve U.S. interests; granting the U.S. access to Pakistan’s airfields; and providing all logistic support to US-led NATO and ISAF forces.

Taliban refuse to hand over Osama bin Laden without any evidence or proper trial.

Abdul Salam Zaeef, Taliban ambassador to Pakistan, said on September 21, 2001 that “Our position on this is that if America has proof, we are ready for the trial of Osama bin Laden in light of the evidence.”

Source: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2001/09/11/world/main310852.shtml

And repeated statement was also reported with reference to Abdul Salam Zaeef, in another newspaper:

“We must be given the evidence. If America is not satisfied with our trial of Osama, we are also ready to find another Islamic way of trying him.”

Source: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2001/oct/05/afghanistan.terrorism

In response, George Bush refused Taliban’s offer as “unacceptable, non-negotiable” and warned of consequences if they do not handover Osama bin Laden.

On September 22, 2001, Northern Alliance launches attacks on Taliban and Taliban call for Jihad if US enters Afghanistan. By the month of October 2001, US and British forces start intensive bombing of Taliban’s air defense installations and command centers with support of Government of Pakistan despite of unhappiness of entire Pakistani nation.

2002 – 2004 The betrayal and reprise…

In January Pakistani government hand over Abdul Salam Zaeef, Taliban ambassador, to US authorities. USA denies giving Taliban captives status of “Prisoners of War” thus stripping off all the rights that are available to wartime captives under International Laws and Geneva Conventions.

Pakistani government and intelligence agencies start major crack down against Madaris (religious schools); a number of Pakistani Islamic groups were outlawed; many Al Qaeda and Taliban members and their sympathizers / fund raisers were handed over to US in return for bounty monies fixed by Bush Administration. Pakistani institutions further impound all of the assets belonging to people classified as “terrorists” by Bush Administration.

President Bush links U.S. and Pakistan goals in war against terror. He declares: “Both the United States and Pakistan are threatened by global terror, and we’re determined to defeat it. Since [the] September 11th [2001] attacks, Pakistan has apprehended more than five-hundred al-Qaida and Taliban terrorists.”

Pervez Musharraf says, “Pakistan will not become haven for al-Qaida or other terrorist groups” and “We abhor terrorism in all its forms and manifestations. There is no cause that can be justified or promoted through terrorist acts. And Pakistan is moving against terrorism in its own national interest.”

In July 2002, Pakistani troops entered the Tirah Valley in the Khyber Agency for the first time since Pakistan independence in 1947. They proceeded to move into the Shawal Valley of North Waziristan, and later South Waziristan. The move was reluctantly allowed by tribes after long negotiations on assurance that it would bring development work and funds.

International Media for the first time starts propaganda that “Taliban members who’ve fled Afghanistan and Al Qaeda operatives are reportedly “re-Talibanizing” in Pakistan”, “Al Qaeda has improved its abilities to plan global attacks and build new training compounds in Pakistan’s tribal areas, which have become virtual havens for the terrorist network.” – Pakistan denied these reports.

Pakistani military starts hunt for Qaeda and Taliban commanders in March 2004 and after retaliation from Waziri tribes suffered heavy losses and casualties, finally resorted to cease-fire agreement in April 2004.

In June 2004, Nek Mohammad (Commander of Taliban in Pakistan and predecessor of Baitullah Mehsud) gets slain in US drone attack.

2005 – 2006 Betrayal continues!

The Taliban begins to regroup in larger numbers and continue to attack US troops in Afghanistan, making it the deadliest year for US troops since the war began in 2001. White House becomes increasingly irritated with Pakistani tribal areas for fueling Taliban and Al Qaeda. Propaganda against Tribal areas of Pakistan catches more fire.

A top U.N. envoy in Afghanistan said the Taliban insurgency there was being aided by money and fighters coming across the border from Pakistan. The Commander of the U.S. Central Command, Gen. Abizaid, held meetings with top Pakistani leaders in Islamabad.

Cease-fire agreement between Islamabad and Islamic militants in North Waziristan was extended for another month and then again for further two weeks. Recall that first ever operation launched by Pakistani army is not “Rah-e-Haq” or “Rah-e-Raast” – in fact, first operation was launched in hunt of Al Qaeda and Taliban commanders in March 2004 and later due to humiliating defeat, Pakistani army resorted to cease-fire agreement after one month in April 2004.

Negotiations between government and tribal leaders in North Waziristan reportedly reached an impasse over the demands for “compensation” for damages caused by military operations in the region.

In the month of September 2006, Pakistani government and militants in North Waziristan signed a truce to ensure “permanent peace” in the region. Under the deal, the Taliban of Pakistan vowed to distance themselves from foreign militants and to end the cross-border movement of militants into Afghanistan, while government forces agreed to refrain from further military operations in the area and to withdraw from numerous check posts. However, a senior Pakistani official said the truce would not prevent the army from “taking surgical action” against any renewed militant activities.

President Bush said he would order U.S. forces to enter Pakistan if he received good intelligence on Osama bin Laden’s location.

2007 – 2008 “Operation Silence” and other key events

Major efforts done by Pakistani army and other developments include: 

• Security forces arrested 16 suspected Taliban from Pishin Bazaar in Baluchistan.
• Pakistan army attacked and destroyed supply trucks in North Waziristan used by militants for cross-border attacks in Afghanistan.
• Pakistan Army helicopter gunships attacked a suspected militant hideout in South Waziristan early on January 16-morning. Helicopter gun-ships targeted a cluster of compounds at Salamt village in the Zamzola area, 30km to the east of Razmak in South Waziristan killing most of the people inside and it used to be an Arab-dominated hideout.
• In July 2007, Commandos of Pakistani army carried out operation silence in Lal Masjid killing unknown number of people including Maulana Ghazi (shaheed).
• Al Qaeda’s second-in command Ayman al Zawahri, in an internet video posted, called for revenge over a government assault that killed more than 70 militants inside the Islamabad-based Lal Masjid. “This crime can only be washed by repentance or blood,” Zawahri said in the video posted on web sites used by Islamists. “If you do not retaliate … (President General Pervez) Musharraf will not spare any of you,” he said, addressing Pakistani Muslims and their clerical leaders.
• At least 15 militants were killed during military operations that targeted militant hideouts near the Mir Ali town in North Waziristan including unconfirmed reports that an Iraqi national Abu Akasha, a suspected al Qaeda operative, may have been the target of the military operation.
• Another attack by Army gunship helicopters in Shawal area of North Waziristan kills 40 alleged militants.
• The increasing number of suicide attacks in Afghanistan is often carried out by young Afghan men who pass through religious schools in Pakistan, a United Nations report sai
• USA’s intelligence agency National Intelligence stated that al Qaeda continues to recruit Europeans for explosives training in Pakistan because Europeans can more easily enter the United States without a visa.
• Director of National Intelligence, Mike McConnell, said that European al Qaeda recruits in the border region of Pakistan are being trained to use commercially available substances to make explosives, and they may be able to carry out an attack on U.S. territory.
• The US military said that it expected al Qaeda to continue its “re-emergence in sanctuaries in Pakistan’s tribal areas from where it supported attacks in Afghanistan”. “Sanctuary was provided to al Qaeda and Taliban militants after Islamabad signed a peace deal with them in a desperate attempt to quell the unrest in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas in September 2006”, a US military official claimed.
• In October 2007, Taliban commander Baitullah Mehsud executed three soldiers from a group of more than 250 taken hostage in September 2007 in South Waziristan and vowed to carry out more executions if the government continued the “Mehsud tribes’ humiliation”. The bodies of the three soldiers were found on the Wana-Jandola road in Jandola near the border with South Waziristan.
• Year 2007 witness first ever military conflict in Swat valley and a cease-fire was reached in February 2009.

In a statement, US Assistant Secretary of State Richard Boucher said in Islamabad on January 12 that “Pakistan has not succeeded despite signing an agreement with tribal people in North Waziristan as terrorists are still going into Afghanistan.”

“At least 700 Taliban activists have crossed from Pakistan into Afghanistan to reinforce militants attacking a key dam, a major source of electricity and irrigation”, a provincial governor in Afghanistan said, “We have got confirmed reports that they are Pakistani, Uzbek and Chechen nationals and have sneaked in,” Helmand Governor Asadullah Wafa told Reuters.

 Pakistan refuted a claim that there was al Qaeda’s base command in the tribal areas and declared that the government was determined to take action against ‘remnants’ of the group who may be hiding in the country. 

“Al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden is alive and sheltering in the lawless parts of Pakistan on the border with Afghanistan”, US National Intelligence Director Mike McConnell said. In response, Pakistan’s Interior Minister Aftab Ahmed Sherpao told AFP “Our stance is that Osama bin Laden is not present in Pakistan… If anyone has the information he should give it to us, so that we can apprehend him.”

Frances Townsend, Homeland Security Adviser to President George W. Bush, said that the US would consider using military force to neutralize alleged al Qaeda hideouts in Pakistan.

The pro-Taliban groups warned Pakistani soldiers to quit fighting or face the “gift of death” through new suicide attacks. In pamphlets, distributed in Miranshah town, entitled “Till Islam Lives in Islamabad” a group calling itself the Mujahideen-i-Islam threatened that suicide bombs would again bring soldiers the “gift of death”. They warned that suicide attackers “love death more than you love your 5,000-rupee salary, nude pictures of Indian actresses and liquor.” It added “We know that you have become America’s slave and are serving infidel Musharraf and have become a traitor to your religion for food, clothes and shelter.”

Pakistan said it would not allow any attack by the United States on the FATA in a hunt for al Qaeda, saying the counter-terrorism measures would be taken by its own security forces.

Taliban fighters attack a US military base, Camp Salerno, in Bamiyan. In another daring attack, 10 French paratroopers are killed and more than 20 are wounded in an ambush by about 100 fighters about 30 miles east of Kabul.

In August 2007, US-led security forces and Afghan troops attacked Taliban positions inside Pakistan in fresh clashes that left at least 19 militants dead, security forces said. The US-led coalition said it received permission from Pakistan to attack across the border on August 25, but this was denied by the chief military spokesperson in Islamabad. 

In October 2007 – The White House released a national strategy for combating terrorism, terming Pakistan as an al Qaeda safe haven, which can be used for launching another 9/11 like attack inside the United States. This is the first time that the country has been named as an al Qaeda safe haven in a White House policy document. Al Qaeda has “protected its top leadership, replenished operational lieutenants, and regenerated a safe haven in Pakistan’s Federally Administered Tribal Areas — core capabilities that would help facilitate another attack on the Homeland,” the document said. 

October 2007 – The PAF warplanes continued attacking localities of Mir Ali subdivision in North Waziristan targeting Haiderkhel, Ipi, Hasukhel, Musaki, Mullagan, Hurmaz, Zeeraki, Khushali and other villages of the area.

Officials said the soldiers and militants had been exchanged through jirga (tribal council) members at Tiarza tehsil (revenue division), 25 kilometres northeast of Wana.

January 2008 – The Pentagon is extremely concerned about al Qaeda operations in Pakistan, said US military chief Admiral Michael Mullen. “We know it is having a significant impact, not just in Afghanistan, but certainly there are concerns about how much they have turned inward inside Pakistan. I am extremely concerned about this” – he told a press conference.

January 2008 – Even as Pakistani troops continued targeting militants’ positions in South Waziristan, Baitullah Mehsud, chief of the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan, warned of serious repercussions if the military operations were not stopped. His spokesman Maulana Umar said: “The government wants to enter the Mehsud area by force. But it must take into account the consequences of such a harsh action”. He accused the security forces of ‘killing innocent people’ and ‘damaging their homes’ and warned that the government would have to “pay a heavy price”.

January 2008 – Taliban Commander Baitullah Mehsud said in an interview with Al Jazeera’s Admad Zaidan Al Jazeera bureau chief in Islamabad at an undisclosed location that “Pervez Musharraf is working for the interests of the nonbelievers and we will fight back to teach him a lesson“.

2.         ROLE OF PAKISTAN IN THE LIGHT OF QURAN AND SUNNAH

 Pakistan’s abandonment of Afghan Muslims was justified as “Sab se pehle Pakistan” – a slogan that stems from “national spirit and patriotism” and submission to US aggression which included following all commands of American.

There are clear rulings of Islam that prohibit Muslims from helping Kuffar in times of war. Scholars of Islam have stated that it is not permitted to support the kafirs against the Muslims, and that that is kufr (disbelief) and riddah (apostasy), because Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“O you who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians as Awliyaa’ (friends, protectors, helpers), they are but Awliyaa’ of each other. And if any amongst you takes them (as Awliyaa’), then surely, he is one of them”           [al-Maa'idah 5:51]

The fuqaha’ of Islam, the imams of the Hanafi, Maaliki, Shaafa’i and Hanbali mazahib, and other fuqaha’, have stated in their books that it is Haram to sell them anything that may help them against the Muslims, such as weapons, equipment, riding vehicles, etc. So it is not permissible to give them food or to sell them food, drink, water, tents, trucks, vehicles, or to make contracts with them to provide maintenance, transaportation, etc. All of that is haram.

It is not permissible to give them anything that may give them the slightest help against the Muslims. Al-Nawawi said in al-Majmoo’:

With regard to selling weapons to ahl al-harb (those who wage war against the Muslims), it is haram according to scholarly consensus.

In al-Mawsoo’ah al-Fiqhiyyah (25/153) it says:

It is haram to sell weapons to ahl al-harb (those who are waging war against Islam) or to those who are known as bandits who attack Muslims or who stir up fitnah among them. Al-Hasan al-Basri said: It is not permissible for a Muslim to take weapons or horses to the enemies of the Muslims which will strengthen them against the Muslims or anything that will help them to acquire weapons and horses, because selling weapons to ahl al-harb strengthens them to fight the Muslims and motivates them to declare war and continue fighting.

This issue is not the matter of ordinary or minor sins, rather it is a matter that has to do with the basis of ‘aqeedah (belief) and Tawheed (belief in the Oneness of Allah), and the Muslim’s support and loyalty towards the Religion of Allah and his disavowal of the enemies of Allah. This is what was stated by the imams in their books.

Shaykh ‘Abd al-‘Azeez ibn Baaz (may Allah have mercy on him) said in his Fataawa (1/274):

The scholars of Islam are unanimously agreed that whoever supports the Kafirs against the Muslims and helps them in any way is a Kafir.

Once the status of the acts or policies chosen by Pakistan are established then second important aspect is that Pakistan and Pakistani Army are under government and control of Munafiqun who are clearly ruling against what Allah has commanded.

One point of consensus among Ulema is that it is obligatory on Muslims to remove rulers upon whom “Kufr” has been established either through a peaceful process or by use of force. Ulema have difference of opinion on the conditions that establish “Kufr”.

All in all, whether or not armed rebellion is recommended or not, it is clear that role chosen by Pakistani government despite of entire Pakistani nation and mercenary role played by military of Pakistan is against the teachings of Quran and Sunnah.

Another point worth noting is that we cannot say that only culprits are Generals while soldiers are innocent because the discipline in army is highly demanding, there is no dissent, no strife within, no coup de-tats for power from within the structure. So everyone in the army is highly supportive of the status quo and would do nothing within his power to bring a change there in.

For example, how Islamic minded people were massacred in Lal Masjid? It was not Generals who stormed the Masjid, but the foot soldiers and commandos of military. Those who claim that these soldiers are staunch Muslims then why did soldiers followed wrong orders of Generals?

As said in Quran:

“If any do fail to judge by the light of what Allah has revealed, they are no better than the kafirs” [al-Maa'idah 5:44]

 Similarly, in Quran at numerous points it is clearly mentioned that:

 “Those who believe, fight in the Cause of Allâh, and those who disbelieve, fight in the cause of Tâghût (Satan, etc.). So fight you against the friends of Shaitân (Satan); Ever feeble indeed is the plot of Shaitân (Satan)” [an-Nisa 4:76]

 “O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people.” [al-Maa'idah 5:51]

“You will see many of them befriending those who disbelieve; certainly evil is that which their souls have sent before for them, that Allah became displeased with them and in chastisement shall they abide.” [al-Maa'idah 5:80]

“Let not the believers take for friends or helpers Unbelievers rather than believers: if any do that, in nothing will there be help from Allah” [aal-e-Imran 3:28]

Now a person might have perverted ideologies about national security and delusions of the same sort, which he/she might use to justify the actions of the army of Pakistan including stance taken by Pakistan as a state but it is all a sham (fraud) and if he/she is not biased or bigoted than the truth is clearly visible.

Lastly, let us see how much sincere Pakistani government was with tribal people:

Bad intentions of Pakistan’s corrupt Government and Mercenary Generals

Before going any further, note a point that Sufi Mohammad was once arrested during early 90s and then in late 90s for his Tehreek Niffaz-e-Shariat Mohammadi (TSNM) and finally arrested for the third time by Musharraf regime in 2000 to remain in captivity for eight years.

In an interview to a foreign media reporter, Mr. Hussain Haqqani said,

“President Zardari did something very smart. When he was with President Obama recently, he explained it. He actually told the American government that I’m going to do this deal to try and prove to those within Pakistan, and in Pakistan’s state apparatus, who think that these guys can be negotiated with — I will negotiate with them only to prove that you can’t negotiate with them, because they will break the deal. And as soon as they broke the deal, the army is back in, the fighting is going on, and you can see the results.”

It clearly shows the insincerity of Pakistani Government and who knows the ones who ran over Buner on the next day of peace deal were indeed Baitullah Mehsud’s people or some government hired people to create chaos to justify beginning of a military operation in Swat?

This should be enough on role of Pakistan as a mercenary state, a character that is worse than that of Israel towards Palestinians.

3.         EVALUATION OF PROJECTED IMAGE OF COMMANDER BAITULLAH MEHSUD

Claim no. 1 – Baitullah is a CIA agent logistically supported by RAW of India.

So-called security experts and defense analysts on Pakistani media do not get tired when they are asked to dry their throats by speaking on “Who is Baitullah Mehsud?”

A majority of average Pakistanis have been fed and indoctrinated through a successful media campaign that Baitullah Mehsud is an Indian supported anti-Pakistan barbarian who slits throat of innocent Pakistani soldiers to terrorize entire nation.

If we refer back to the timeline above without any bias, we can see that it is the Pakistani military that charged over tribal areas under American support in 2002, a full fleshed operation was started in March 2004 (which resulted in a humiliating defeat) and then strife continued off and on, Baitullah’s lashkar captured and released Pak Soldiers and FC footmen under various peace deals without harming them and he has also been sending warning that either the operation and humiliation of tribal people should stop under US pressure or he will start killing soldiers and FC footmen who follow un-Islamic orders of Pakistani Generals.

These security experts and defense analysts use justification of “no drone attacks on Baitullah network” to prove that he is a foreign supported terrorist. They claim that while USA has been targeting pro-Afghan Taliban tribesmen using unmanned drones but USA never deliberately targeted Baitullah Mehsud or his network.

Now let us see that how much full of lies the claims of these experts are.

In a report published by Long War Journal, summarizing history of US drone attacks in Pakistan, it is mentioned that as of July 2009, 50% of total drone attacks were made in Baitullah Mehsud’s area of South Waziristan and about 38% of total drone attacks were made in North Waziristan thus out of total, 88% of drone attacks were made against Waziristan agency which is the home town of Baitullah Mehsud and before his death under a drone attack, former Commander of Taliban Pakistan, Nek Mohammad was also killed in a drone attack in June 2004 later his brother Abdullah Mehsud – an ex-Guantanamo Bay detainee, was killed in battle with Pakistani forces somewhere in Baluchistan.

Source: See chart nos. 4 of 5 and 5 of 5 at:
http://www.longwarjournal.org/multimedia/US-Predator-Strikes-in-Pakistan/index.html

Commander-wise summary of drone attacks in Pakistan:

Figures as of July 18, 2009

From above, we can clearly see that USA was desperate to kill Baitullah Mehsud and Mullah Nazir for their support to Afghan Taliban and later they were dragged into a fighting front with Pakistani forces for attacking tribal areas to support US-led coalition forces in Afghanistan. Unfortunately, none of these figures was ever discussed in our media by so-called paid experts who did a great job in serving interests of Kuffar in getting these Taliban Commanders declared as “Anti-Pakistan Terrorists”.

Claim no. 2 – USA never wanted to kill Baitullah Mehsud and his death by US drone was an unintentional mishap on part of USA.

This is another blatant lie by our self-proclaimed experts. Another report from Long War Journal mentions:

“And an overwhelming number of strikes – nearly 90 percent – have taken place against al Qaeda and Taliban targets in North and South Waziristan.”

And

“In 14 strikes, the US reportedly attempted to target a specific Taliban or al Qaeda leader (or leaders), but failed to kill the intended target. These strikes have included two failed attempts to kill Ayman al-Zawahiri – who is thought to be hiding somewhere in the Taliban-controlled areas of the tribal agencies – as well as TWO ATTEMPTS TO TAKE OUT BAITULLAH MEHSUD, the leader of the Movement of the Taliban in Pakistan, who is based in South Waziristan. It was not possible to determine if High Value Targets were targeted in the remaining 45 strikes.”

And

“Some of the most important al Qaeda and Taliban leaders killed by US airstrikes include: Abu Jihad al Masri, the chief of al Qaeda’s intelligence council; Abu Sulayman Jazairi, the chief of al Qaeda’s external operations branch; Khalid Habib, the commander of al Qaeda’s paramilitary Shadow Army; Osama al Kini, the head of al Qaeda’s operations in Pakistan; Abu Laith al Libi, the commander of Brigade 055; Abu Khabab al Masri, the chief of al Qaeda’s WMD program; Abu Hamza Rabai, al Qaeda’s operations chief in Pakistan; and Nek Mohammed, the leader of the Taliban in South Waziristan.”

You should re-read above paragraph where it says that “at least two attempts were made to take out Commander Baitullah Mehsud”.

Source: http://www.longwarjournal.org/archives/2009/07/us_predator_strikes_3.php

It is known that Commander Baitullah Mehsud emerged and sole commanding authority of Waziristan thus he was indeed al Qaeda and Taliban fighter not an US agent. This is the most furious lie from Pakistani experts.

And further to prove that many false claims by these highly paid experts, let us see other key commanders of Baitullah killed by US air strikes inside Pakistan:

Nek Mohammed, killed on June 18, 2004 – A senior Taliban commander in South Waziristan who had links to Osama bin Laden and Mullah Omar.

Liaquat Hussain, killed on October 30, 2006 – second-in-command of Bajaur Tehreek Niffaz-e-Shariat Mohammadi.

Kifayatullah Anikhel, killed on July 7, 2009 – a Taliban commander under Baitullah Mehsud.

Khwaz Ali Mehsud, killed on June 23, 2009 – a senior deputy to Baitullah Mehsud.

Now I do not see what other than dollars made our experts ignore these facts. In another summary of US drone attacks maintained at Wikipedia – not less than fifty (50) attacks were made by US in Waziristan.

See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drone_attacks_on_Pakistan_by_the_United_States_of_America

Claim no. 3 – Baitullah Mehsud is a terrorist not a Mujahid.

Let us see other sources too so that you realize that Baitullah Mehsud was a Mujahid and not a terrorist – although his fellows may be committed some mistakes due to lack of Islamic knowledge but that’s a separate matter and the primary responsibility of such mistakes should fall on shoulders of Ulema who have resorted to poisonous silence.

In a report by World Socialist Web on Pakistan it is mentioned,

“Bowing to the pressure from the Obama administration, the Islamabad government led by the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) and the military launched a brutal offensive on April 26 in the Swat Valley and adjoining districts in the North Western Frontier Province (NWFP).”

Further it says,

“Meeting with Pakistan’s Army Chief General Ashfaq Parvez Kayani on Tuesday, Holbrooke again praised the military for the Swat offensive, while demanding that it press ahead.“

At another point the report says,

“The US war in Afghanistan and in the Pakistan border area is destabilizing the whole country and will have far reaching implications for the entire South Asian region. This is underscored by the increasing mass opposition to the US presence as well as to the PPP-led government in Islamabad.”

Source: http://www.wsws.org/articles/2009/aug2009/paki-a22.shtml

Another report published in Los Angeles Times said,

“For years, Al Qaeda and the Pakistani Taliban have nurtured a symbiotic relationship that has paid off for both militant groups. The Taliban provided Al Qaeda and its leaders sanctuary within the rugged wasteland of Pakistan’s tribal areas along the Afghan border. In turn, Al Qaeda trained and helped finance its host.”

It should solve the lie and myth of India financial hardcore Islamists.

“Now, with the purported death of Taliban leader Baitullah Mahsud and his organization temporarily rudderless, Al Qaeda finds itself made vulnerable by the disarray plaguing its patron, experts and Pakistani intelligence sources say. It’s a window of opportunity that neither Pakistan nor the United States can afford to neglect.”

Source: http://mobile.latimes.com/inf/infomo?view=World+News+Item&feed:a=latimes_1min&feed:c=worldnews&feed:i=48686942&nopaging=1

This should clarify on whose instructions this operation was started and later on how media was used to cover it up so that people of Pakistan do not stand up against Army for killing civilians of Pakistan.

Culprit defense and security analysts using banner of Islam succeeded to fool hundreds of thousands of Pakistanis. If Baitullah Mehsud was really an agent then I must say he was the biggest fool we would ever know because the terms on which he became agent were highly unfavorable for him and for his tribesmen that on one side Pak Army is killing his tribesmen and on the other US drones are hitting him hard that up to 88% of total are attacking his home towns and despite of Baitullah’s allegedly agent role, all the dollars kept flowing to PPP government and Mercenary Army.

Pakistan’s paid military assets appearing as experts are leading entire nation astray

Unfortunately, Pakistani people have long been waiting for a leader who would come and rescue them from all miseries. If you notice that in our media any person, who speaks against India, Israel and American becomes an instant hero.

Talking with reference to Pakistan’s self proclaimed defense and security analysts [I wonder who gives them this designation], there is a complete blue print these people follow, first they say what people want to listen on issues like corruption, problems of Pakistan, typical anti-Israel and anti-India slogans, then few programs on Islam – that’s all to become hero of Pakistani nation. When these people are certain that their propaganda has created fans and enough number of people subscribing to their ideas and beliefs then they start to IMPLANT information as and when required by their paying masters.

4.         CONCLUSION – you to decide

Propaganda in media is at the height of its peak and experts’ reports on Pakistani channels contradict many facts that should be enough to expose their filthy objectives. 

Unfortunately, facts are buried deep down due to overwhelming propaganda. None of the facts included in this write-up could make their place in mainstream media for reasons which are clearly visible including a fact that this entire media is controlled by the powers of Taghoot.

One might think why British Foreign Secretary had to say, “Pakistan’s fight against terror on right trajectory” [Source: http://geo.tv/9-8-2009/48856.htm]

And, US State Department has praised that the Pakistan Army has had “a very serious and concerted effort to dismantle extremist elements” [Source: http://samaa.tv/News12298-Pakistan_Army_making_serious_effort_US.aspx]

Why American and British officials are praising military operation in tribal areas? Why they are happy for on going efforts by army against so-called extremists and terrorists?

It should now be clear that all of this propaganda in Pakistan is being carried out to gather support for military operations based on American wishes and commands to avoid American wrath – no matter even if these operation result in merciless coldblooded massacre of orthodox Islamic tribal people of Pakistan who have a proud history of not bowing down to invading super powers.

Our problem as nation is we have been entangled in chasing basic necessities of life and due to this, we have lost willingness to read alternative news sources to at least verify that whatever our media and self-proclaimed experts are spreading is truth or bunch of fabricated lies which can be easily caught if we think beyond the propaganda.

Last words…

This is all I have to say, I am a homeland loving Pakistani but Islam comes first and from historical facts of decade, I can see that whose interests Pakistan Army and ISI have been serving and against whom Pakistani Generals have been helping the Kuffar — my patriotism has not blinded me.

Pakistan is not fighting a war that belongs to her and as long as Pakistan does not officially corrects her Afghan policy – I do not believe that ISI is silently working behind the doors to support Jihad against USA in Afghanistan behind the doors.

There cannot be peace in Pakistan as USA will always try to drag Pakistan into war because Taliban in Afghanistan are badly beating US soldiers and besides this, we have to pay Kuffara of deaths of thousands of innocent Afghan Muslims who were bombed to martyrdom by Pakistan’s support under a slogan of “Pakistan First” and our army provided all logistic support including Chowkidari of NATO supply routes and attacking tribesmen who would attack NATO supply vehicles.

If we look at past, it would be clear that Generals in Pak Army are blood thirsty lunatics who pursue power and ruling authority, first they massacred Bengalis in East Pakistan (research on aristocracies on your own), resultantly we lost East Pakistan, then Army charged on Urdu speaking people in Karachi and thousands were murdered, then they charged over Lal Masjid (in this case some may say that Maulana Ghazi made a mistake but in any case that mistake was not big enough to commit a massacre in darkness of night and bury the hundreds of dead while hiding all facts. Why their faces were not shown to Media? Why their details were not released? And now we see Army charging against own civilians in Swat. Result could be the same as of a map shown in Pakistani media that showed NWFP separate from Pakistan.

You should also note that all of the operations committed by Army were very tactically handled that opponents were very successfully labeled as “terrorists” by media, be it Bengali, Urdu Speaking supports of a political party, Lal Masjid clerics or people of Swat. There is a complete blue print that these mercenary generals and their shameless experts in media follow to fool Pakistanis to justify their wrong acts and to justify that it is “terrorists” this army is fighting.

I pray that may Allah help Pakistanis in realizing this game and step forward to publicly punish corrupt politicians of Pakistan and burn alive the mercenary generals of Pakistan to take revenge of thousands of deaths in Afghanistan and now in FATA.

May Allah’s lanat on those who create false propaganda against Mujahideen and may Allah’s fierce azaab on Munafiqun who portray themselves as Islamic to appear as “Rahbar” but in fact are “Rahzan” to mislead people, may Allah grant glorious victory to those who are fighting in the name of the Almighty and supremacy and implementation of Islam.

Pata de Elefante é uma banda gaúcha de rock instrumental muito boa. Eles estão concorrendo no VMB deste ano na nova categoria Instrumental. Infelizmente, as votações para esta categoria já acabaram, mas continuamos na torcida.

O som dos caras tem uma influência forte e clara das grandes bandas de rock dos anos 60 (Cream, Clapton, Grateful Dead, Stones, algumas indentificadas por nós), e é construído num formato típico dos rocks com vocal. Estão prontos para enfiar a voz, mas não precisam. A melodia da guitarra substitui qualquer obrigação de letras que correm o risco de não dizerem nada.

Fizemos uma matéria para a segunda semana do programa Rádio Kanastra na MTV, com uma entrevista e uns sons ao vivo, onde eles falam um pouco deles e de suas influências.

Na máteria da semana, Manuela Rahal entrevista e assiste a um show da banda Pata de Elefante, que está concorrendo ao VMB 2009 na categoria Instrumental.

I CANNOT FORGET THE FAN CHORUS. EVER.

Endless Rain :

I’m walking in the rain
yuku ate mo naku kizutsuita karada nurashi
karamitsuku koori no zawameki
koroshi tsuzukete samayou itsu made mo
Until I can forget your love

nemuri wa mayaku tohou ni kureta

mai agaru ai o odorasete

I keep my love for you to myself

* Endless rain, fall on my heart kokoro no kizu ni
Let me forget all of the hate, all of the sadness

Days of joy, days of sadness slowly pass me by
As I try to hold you, you are vanishing before me
You’re just an illusion
When I’m awaken, my tears have dried in the sand of sleep
I’m a rose blooming in the desert

It’s a dream, I’m in love with you
madoromi dakishimete
* repeat
I awake from my dream
I can’t find my way without you

The dream is over
koe ni naranai kotoba o kurikaeshite mo
takasugiru hai iro no kabe wasugi satta hi no
omoi o yume ni utsusu
Until I can forget you love
* repeat
Endless rain, let me stay
evermore in your heart
Let my heart take in your tears, take in your memories

Endless Rain(English) :

‘m walking in the rain,
though everything seems to be hurting me for some reason.
There is only nothing.
Just kill me now … as I roam forever.
Until I can forget your love.

To me sleep is a confusing, narcotic
that only quiets the beating heart.
All my love seems to flow from my body like a heart felt memory.
I keep my love for you to myself.

*Endless rain, fall on my heart In this wounded soul.
Let me forget, all of the hate, all of the sadness,

Days of joy, days of sadness slowly pass me by.
As I try to hold you, you are vanishing before me.
You’re just an illusion.
When I am awake, my tears have dried in the sands of sleep.
I’m a rose blooming in the desert.

It’s a dream, I’m in love with you.
Hold me warmly in your arms.
I awake from my dream
I can’t find my way without you

The dream is over.
I can no longer hear the voice of your gentle words.
Floating off tear stained walls.
So awakening in the morning, I’ll move into my dreams …
until I can forget your love.

repeat *

Endless rain, fall on my heart, in this wounded soul.
Let me forget, all of the hate, all of the sadness.
Endless rain, let me stay a memory in your heart.
Let me take in your tears, take in your memories.

En el divagar de las quemas que han transcurrido año tras año, en fiestas, eventos y demás reuniones sociales, nos dimos cuenta de que en algunas ocasiones, a nuestros colegas fumadores les hacía falta un poco de decencia y cultura en lo relacionado con la etiqueta del mariguanero.

Es por esto, que nos dimos a la tarea de recopilar y establecer una serie de pautas que van dedicadas a todos aquellos que no practican costumbres sanas a la hora de darse un plon con sus amigos, o en su defecto.. con estos servidores.

Etiqueta al fumar marihuana para principiantes:

A continuación unas pocas reglas de etiqueta para el fumador principiante:

• La persona que arma el bareto se lo pasa al que quiera.
• El moño puede ser consumido de muchas maneras ya sea con pipas, bates, pipas de agua (bong). Date un plon quitando el dedo del agujero del carburador y absorbiendo el humo de la recamara.
• Asegúrate de tener secos los labios antes de darte un plon.
• Disfrute del plon y rotelo al que quiera.
• Si tu pipa esta sucia, es probable que no te trabe. Así que mantenla limpia para mejores efectos.
• Trata de mantener candela o encendedor.
• Trata de no usar candelas ajenas o quedarás como un liso, un buen baretero siempre trae la suya.

Etiqueta básica para fumar marihuana:

• La persona que lo arma, lo prende y se traba primero.
• Felicita a la persona por un buen armado.
• No malgastes tiempo sosteniendo el bareto y hablando.
• Evita mojar el porro.
• Una persona que niega un plon queda vetada en la segunda ronda.
• Generalmente el bareto se pasa en forma circular.
• Dale a la persona un trago de tu bebida si te pide mientras se está fumando.
• Cuando pidas un trago toma solo eso, no te atragantes.
• No pases un bareto, ni una pata mojada.
• Ofrece bareta si la otra persona está necesitada y tú tienes suficiente.
• La persona que trae la bareta escoje la música.
• Limpia antes de irte.
• Si te pasan el bareto no fumes mucho, una Buena regla son 2 plones y pasarlo.
• Después de darte un batazo siempre pasa la candela, no hacerlo es de mala educación.
• Si fumas con alguien en tu casa ofréceles algo de comer y de tomar (Nada peor que la seca y la cometrapo).
• Nunca critiques la calidad de la marihuana de otros, si no te gusta no fumes.
• Si alguien te traba alguna vez, le debes hacer el favor de trabarlo en una próxima ocasión.
• Nunca debes negar un plon.
• Si le compras bareta a un amigo, siempre es de buena educación armar un bareto y fumarlo con él.
• Nunca vallas a la  casa de alguien esperando que te trabe, claro hay excepciones a esta regla.
• No trabes a tu mascota si pesa menos de 5 lbs, la puedes matar, a menos que merezca morir, claro que no imagino mascota que lo merezca.
• No mientas acerca de la cantidad de bareta que has fumado.
• Cuando te trabes trata de no toser todo el humo pues estas desperdiciando la yerba.
• Si te da la cometrapo no te comas todo lo que encuentres en la casa de tu amigo, recuerda que él tiene que pagar por el Mercado.
• Si le estas vendiendo moño a alguien no mientas acerca de lo que estas vendiendo.
• No estés pidiendo bareta a menos que sepas que te darán

La regla más importante es: Debes compartir la marihuana. No fumes solo si estas rodeado de gente. Deja que otros compartan tu bareto, así te hayas gastado lo último en él.  Así no te caiga bien la otra gente. No valen las excusas. No hay nada peor que ver a alguien fumándose un bareto solo. No seas avaro y disfruta con los demás.

Dinos tus reglas de cabezera y agregalas a la lista!

(ZMILI) NU MAI RETIN CUM…CERT E CA NU M-A DETERMINAT CEVA ANUME SA FAC RAP…SAU MAI BINE ZIS CINEVA ANUME GEN IDOLI AND SHIT…NU AM AVUT SI NU AM IDOLI….M-AM APUCAT DE RAP CAM DIN ACELASI MOTIV PENTRU CARE M-AM APUCAT DE FUMAT:)LA INCEPUT E MARFA APOI NU TE MAI LASI:)

(ELADIO) Ai avut diverse colaborari dar pana acum nici un album. Se anunta unul cat de curand?

(PATA) DA, TOATE LA TIMPUL LOR.

(ZMILI) ANUNTA UN MATERIAL DE 6 PIESE,UN EP,SUB ”ARIPA” AVANGARD MIUZIC…PIESE NOI,FRESH,SOUND DIFERIT DE CEEA CE AM FACUT PANA ACUM…SPER SA PLACA SI SA SPERAM CA IESE CAT DE CURAND…ORICUM NU MA GRABESC CA NU STAU SUB APA:)

(ELADIO) Ce planuri de viitor ai?

(PATA)  N-AM PLANURI, PRIN MUNCA SI SERIOZITATE CRED CA-MI VOI MODELA VIITORUL IN TIMP.

(ZMILI) MAI BINE MA INTREBI CE FAC MAINE:))…NU IMI FAC NICIODATA PLANURI DE VIITOR.

(ELADIO) Te simti multumit de cum iti merge din punct de vedere muzical?

(PATA) PERSONAL CRED CA N-AM FOST NICI O DATA MULTUMIT, NU SUNT PESIMIST SAU LACOM…BA CHIAR DIN CONTRA SUNT PERSEVERENT IN CE MA PRIVESTE, ASA CA INTOTDEUNA E LOC DE MAI BINE.

(ZMILI) SIGUR CA DA…AM UN CREW PUTERNIC IN SPATE,OAMENI CARE MA AJUTA,CONCERTE MICI PE ICI PE COLO…E OK DAR E NORMAL CA SE POATE SI MAI BINE.

(ELADIO) Ce aspetari ai pe viitor? Unde ai vrea sa ajungi cu muzica si unde crezi ca o sa ajungi?

(PATA) AS VREA CA REZULTATELE SA MA SURPRINDA…

(ZMILI) CUM ZICEAM NU IMI FAC NICIODATA PLANURI DE VIITOR…CU MUZICA VREAU SA AJUNG IN CASELE,CALCULATOARELE,MINTEA SI INIMILE ASCULTATORILOR:)

(ELADIO) De ce in Romania nu se fac bani din muzica rap?

(PATA) SE FACE…INTRADEVAR ACEST LUCRU NU SE REZUMA LA MODUL GENERAL, DAR SE FAC.

(ZMILI) EU CRED CA SE CAM FAC BANI…IDEEA E SA STI CUM…E DIFICIL SA TE IMPUI CU UN STIL PESTE ALTELE DAR DACA NU TE GRABESTI,PERSEVEREZI SI LOVESTI BINE,BANII SAR.BINE…MAI AM EU O PROBLEMA CU ”ORGANIZATORII” SI OBLIGATIILE LOR DAR ASTA E CU TOTU ALTA POVESTE!

(ELADIO) Cum ti se pare muzica rap din Romania la ora actuala?

(PATA) INTR-UN PROGRES CONTINUU…

(ZMILI) INFLORITOARE CA AGRICULTURA PANA-N ‘89…GENERATIA VECHE SCOATE IN CONTINUARE TREABA BUNA,CEA NOUA SCOATE SI EA DIN CE IN CE MAI MULT SI MAI BINE…SUNT SI OAMENI DEGEABA CA DEH…PADUREA FARA USCATURI E CA BABA FARA RIDURI DAR ASTA E…INTR-UN CUVANT, PROSPERA….CRED EU

(ELADIO) Ce ii lipseste?

(PATA) IMPLICARE SI EFORT.

(ZMILI) ATITUDINEA DE CELE MAI MULTE ORI SI MATURITATEA…IN REST E OK.

(ELADIO) Lipsesc albumele din magazine, in schimb pe internet gasesti din ce in ce mai multe albume lansate gratis de artisti. Ce parere ai despre asta?

(PATA) ASTA E PIATA…MOMENTAN E SINGURUL LUCRU BUN CARE SE INTAMPLA.

(ZMILI) PAI…TEHNOLOGIA BATE LA USA NENE SI FOAMEA ODATA CU EA…NU AI CUM SA TE OPUI,DECAT SA TE CONFORMEZI…DACA UN ARTIST BUN A AJUNS SA ISI LASE MUZICA MOCA PE NET PENTRU CA NICI DRACU NU II MAI CAUTA ALBUMU IN MAGAZIN,NU POATE FI DECAT TRIST…MAINE O SA NE VINDEM MUZICA PE MEMORY-STICK-URI LA PROMOTIE …LA DOUA ALBUME CUMPARATE,GRATIS UN BRELOC PENTRU CHEI SAU UN DESFACATOR DE BERE, LA ALEGERE.

(ELADIO) Daca ar fi sa schimbi ceva in muzica rap de la noi , ce ai schimba?

(PATA) SOUND-UL…CALITATIV VORBIND.

(ZMILI) IN PRIMUL RAND FAPTUL CA SE CAM MANANCA UNII PE ALTII…DAR E UN FEL DE LANT TROFIC DECI NU AI DE CE SI PENTRU CE SA IL SCHIMBI…LASA CA E BINE ASA…SUNTEM MARFA.

(ELADIO) Desi momentan pare mai mult o moda, nu se vand cd-uri, nu exista un post Tv numai de hip-hop, nu exista o revista (la chioscuri) numai de Hip-Hop. De ce? Cine e vinovatul si ce s-ar putea face?

(PATA) VINOVATI SUNT CEI CARE DETIN CONTROLUL MUZICII DIN ROMANIA…CASELE DE DISCURI CARE NU-SI ASUMA RISCURI SI ARTISTII DEMORALIZATI DIN ACEASTA PRICINA INCETINESC ACEST PROCES DE PROMOVARE…CE S-AR PUTEA FACE?PAI IN PRIMUL RAND INDEPENDENTA FACE TOT LA NOI…ASA CA DACA S-AR PUNE MAI MULT ACCENT PE “POT” DECAT PE “VREAU”, CRED CA MUZICA RAP DE LA NOI S-AR VINDE.

(ZMILI) MEDIA…MOMENTAN NIMIC.

(ELADIO) Cate din albumele rap romanesti dupa parerea voastra ar reusi sa ajunga undeva in top daca ar fi fost lansate afara?

(PATA) CATEVA CU SIGURANTA.

(ZMILI) SASE DIN ZECE.

(ELADIO) Ce reprezinta muzica rap pentru tine?

(PATA) …AR FI PREA MULT DE SPUS CA SA MA EXPRIM ACUM.

(ZMILI) CE REPREZINTA TIGARA PENTRU FUMATOR,CURVA PENTRU PESTE SI BIBLIA PENTRU PREOT!

(ELADIO) Ce parere ai despre http://hiphopdinromania.blogspot.com ?

(PATA) FOARTE TARE. TINETI-O TOT ASA!

(ZMILI) FRUMOS…SE OCUPA LUMEA,E DE APRECIAT!

(ELADIO) Cum ti se pare promovarea pe internet? E indeajuns?

(PATA) PROMOVAREA PE INTERNET E BUNA, DESI S-AR PUTEA MAI MULT DE ATAT.

(ZMILI) DEPINDE DE OMUL DIN SPATELE RECLAMEI…CAND VINE VORBA DE INTERNET NU POTI SPUNE NICIODATA INDEAJUNS…DAR REPET DEPINDE SI DE ”PRODUSUL” PROMOVAT…PENTRU CA DE CELE MAI MULTE ORI NU SE BUCURA NIMENI LA AMBALAJ,TOTI VOR CONTINUTUL DECI DEGEABA SCOTI LA RAMPA UN NIMIC…PIERZI TIMP SI INCREDERE.
