Bashir Bilour killed in Peshawar suicide blast

Abida Hussain: 2:19 AM (9 hours ago) I first met Bashir Bilour (May his soul rest in Peace) for the first time in 1978 when Khan Abdul Wali Khan was released from Hyderabad jail. He was young and obliging and Nasim Bibi and Khan Abdul Wali Khan relied heavily on him,as did his elder brother Haji Ghulam Ahmed Bilour. Bashir was the quintessential political worker,accessible and helpful and he earned his spurs as a representative and as Senior Minister in the current KPK Govt he worked with energy and dedication and did not flinch in the face of danger. His has been the most high profiled political asassination since that of Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto and does not bode well for peaceful conduct of elections, which are around the corner. Perhaps the ANP has not been given enough credit by the Pakistani public for their courage and resolve in combatting the forces of darknes that threaten to engulf us.

Nadia Mirza Indeed Basheer Bilour Shaheed was an iron man against the terrorism. Without dragging myself into political debate I must say he has sacrificed his life for peace and prosperity. He never been scared of threats he received. May Allah rest his soul in peace. Nadia Mirza. Tv Journalist. CNBC Pakistan . Sent from my BlackBerry® Smartphone provided by Ufone

Haroon Siddiqi Dunya TV: In my eyes, Bashir Balour was the only brother who had great respect amongst the political parties and the journalist community. It is a very sad demise, one thing was noted that in an official statement it said that "Bashir Bilour ke shahadut per afsos ka izhar" how can one be saddened over SHAHADAT? Shahadat is the best form of death. May ALLAH ALMIGHTY give the grieved family strength to over come a great loss and may his soul rest in peace. Regards,

APP: Foreign Desk The death of Bashir Bilour is no doubt a great loss not only to the Pukhtun community, ANP but to all those broadminded people who wanted to get the country out of the flames of militancy and extremism. Though Bashir Bilour (Shaheed) is no more with us in our march towards making Pakistan a modern social welfare state but as a resilient nation and sons of the soil we are determined to end this war to its logical conclusion and to get rid of these handful of militants and terrorists who has converted our peaceful land into a pile of explosives. The ANP chief Asfandyar Wali Khan has rightly said that " If extremists and terrorists can unit from Kabul to Karachi then why not the Pakistan nation stand united against these evil forces." The time has come for all Pakistanis to come forward and consider this war their own war and confront these elements of darkness from the front and eliminate them. May Allah Almighty rest the departed soul of Bashir Bilour in peace and grant courage to his family members to bear the loss with equanimity. Aameen.

“We have already wasted a lot of time and we strongly believe that terrorist sanctuaries, wherever they exist, must be eliminated,” says Gohar.

ISLAMABAD: In the wake of its leader Bashir Bilour’s assassination, the Awami National Party (ANP) will push for a full-scale military offensive against Taliban insurgents based in the North Waziristan tribal region – believed to be a stronghold of Haqqani Network and their tribal cohorts. According to sources in the ANP, the party plans to propose either an all-party conference or a special sitting of Parliament to evolve a consensus on a strong response to growing militancy in the country. A special meeting of the party’s central decision-making body will be convened tomorrow (Tuesday) in Peshawar to discuss both proposals. Most ANP leaders believe it is high time for a military operation in North Waziristan, sources said. ANP’s central information secretary confirmed that his party will seek a consensus among all political parties for a united front against terrorism. “This is not ANP’s war. This is a battle for survival for all of us … if militants are not willing to reconcile then we have no other option except the use of force,” Senator Zahid Khan told The Express Tribune. He insisted that certain political parties will have to review their “dual policy” and come up with a clear stance against militancy. ANP lawmaker Bushra Gohar, however, was more candid. “We have already wasted a lot of time and we strongly believe that terrorist sanctuaries, wherever they exist, must be eliminated,” she said. When asked, a senior military official said an operation in North Waziristan was not possible without political ownership. He added that the government would have to take the final decision on whether or not to go for an all-out offensive. Despite US pressure, Pakistan has been reluctant to launch a military operation in North Waziristan for a host of reasons. In the past, the military has indicated its willingness to take on the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan – which is based in neighbouring South Waziristan Agency – it has never shown any commitment for a possible action against the Haqqani Network. One reason security officials cite for this policy is that the Haqqani Network pose no immediate threat to Pakistan’s interests. However, some observers disagree with this approach. They insist that while all these groups may operate independently, they complement each other’s actions at the same time. Senior ANP leader and K-P Information Minister Mian Iftikhar also warned against differentiating between “good or bad Taliban”. “All of them (Taliban) are the same so they have to be dealt with accordingly,” he told a private news channel. Published in The Express Tribune, December 24th, 2012. ==================== 40 dead in a week: Violence across Pakistan raises fears for elections By AFP Published: December 24, 2012 "Taliban are on a major onslaught to destabilise the country and create chaos to shake people's faith in the state." PHOTO: REUTERS?FILE ISLAMABAD: A surge of violence in northwest Pakistan culminating in the assassination of a senior provincial minister has raised fears of a renewed Taliban campaign that could threaten national elections, analysts say. The province of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and the adjacent Federally-Administered Tribal Areas, which border Afghanistan, are on the frontline of the country’s battle against Islamist militancy and are no strangers to violence. But the past week has seen a noticeable rise in bloodshed, with more than 40 people killed in near-daily attacks. These culminated in Saturday’s suicide bombing at a meeting of the Awami National Party (ANP) in Peshawar, the province’s main city. The blast, which killed nine including provincial number two Bashir Bilour, was claimed by the Pakistani Taliban, who said the minister was targeted in revenge for the death of one of the movement’s “elders”. The surge of violence began on December 15 with a spectacular commando-style Taliban attack on Peshawar airport and also featured a car bomb near a local government office in Khyber tribal district that killed 21 people. “The spate of attacks in recent days indicates the Taliban are on a major onslaught to destabilise the country and create chaos to shake people’s faith in the state apparatus,” political analyst and author Hasan Askari told AFP. “It’s part of their broader agenda to undermine the credibility of government and prove that the state apparatus is crumbling.” For the Taliban, killing a high-profile and outspoken critic such as Bilour has a double effect, Askari said: silencing an experienced and fearless adversary and striking fear into those who might think of following in his footsteps. The coalition government led by the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) — which also includes the ANP — will complete its five-year term in March and insists elections will be held on time. But no date has yet been announced for polls and there are rumours the ballot could be postponed if the security situation is deemed too precarious. Retired Lieutenant General Talat Masood, a security and political analyst, said the Taliban were stepping up their assaults on political and military targets precisely to create this kind of anarchy. “They will try to disrupt elections because they can flourish when the state is weak — there is a political vacuum and then people lose confidence in the government,” he told AFP. If elections go ahead successfully it will be the first time in Pakistan’s turbulent history that an elected civilian government has completed a five-year term. Both Askari and Masood said the government would find it difficult to delay the vote, paving the way for a bloody campaign period. Thursday is the fifth anniversary of the assassination of former prime minister Benazir Bhutto, killed in a gun and suicide attack in the garrison city of Rawalpindi after addressing an election rally. Brigadier Saad Khan, a former officer with the powerful Inter-Services Intelligence agency, warned the Taliban may continue their campaign with an attack on events marking the anniversary. These include a major speech by her son Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, the PPP chairman. Khan described the security situation as grave, saying the militants were “waging a war for Peshawar”. He compared it to the state of affairs before a major military offensive against militant hideouts and training camps in South Waziristan in 2009. “The militants are moving with a plan (of) how and where to attack. They put pressure at one place and move to another,” he said. “It is a dynamic enemy and we are static. We are reactive they are proactive.” He criticised the current strategy for dealing with the militants as “half-hearted” and urged a more concerted effort to defeat them. =========== aw and order challenge: Agencies fear ‘violence’ in poll By Kamran Yousaf Published: December 25, 2012 Terrorist attacks have claimed more than 40 lives in the past week, raising fears of a possible delay in elections. PHOTO: FILE ISLAMABAD: While the government insists the next parliamentary election will be held on time, intelligence agencies have warned that it could be riddled by large-scale violence hitherto unseen in the country’s poll history, The Express Tribune has learnt. The ominous warning came in the backdrop of a recent upsurge in terrorist attacks, including the assassination of prominent Awami National Party (ANP) politician Bashir Ahmed Bilour and the abortive attack on Peshawar airbase. The parliamentary elections are scheduled for early next year after the Pakistan Peoples Party-led coalition government completes its five-year constitutional term. However, in their assessment shared with the concerned authorities, intelligence agencies said that maintaining law and order during the elections would be a huge challenge, sources told The Express Tribune. According to them, insurgents were plotting attacks against prominent politicians in an effort to disrupt the election process. However, it is not clear whether or not security agencies have advised the government to delay the polls. “The assassination of Bashir Bilour could be the beginning of a new wave of terrorist attacks in the country,” said one intelligence source. Bilour, a senior minister in the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa government, was assassinated by a Taliban suicide bomber in Peshawar on Saturday in an attack that also killed eight other people. The attack came days after 10 terrorists mounted an audacious attack on the Pakistan Air Force base, adjacent to Peshawar airport. Police and army commandos successfully fought off the attack and killed all the assailants. Terrorist attacks have claimed more than 40 lives in the past week, raising fears of a possible delay in elections. Though the government insists that the elections will be held on time, it has not announced the schedule as yet. The country’s main opposition party – the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz – says it would not accept any delay in the elections. “We don’t trust the government. They are just trying to find lame excuses. The best solution to the law and order problem is to have an early election,” said the PML-N spokesperson Senator Mushahidullah Khan. In a recent television interview, senior PML-N leader Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan also said that the government appeared to be seeking a delay in election on the pretext of the ongoing unrest in the country. The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) also says it would not brook any delay in the elections. “If elections could take place in Iran even when its parliament was bombed, then there is no reason for delaying polls in Pakistan,” said PTI Dr Israr Shah. “We want elections to be held within 90 days no matter what,” he told The Express Tribune. President of the Punjab chapter of PPP Mian Manzoor Wattoo said on Sunday that an interim government would be installed on March 17 to conduct the elections. Political observers say a strong caretaker set-up could ensure a peaceful election. “There is still time left in the polls and one hopes the situation will improve,” said Ahmed Bilal Mehboob, who heads an Islamabad-based think tank working for the strengthening of democracy in Pakistan. However, he warned that if militants continued to target high-profile leaders, this would certainly discourage people to come out for voting. If this happens, Mehboob argues, the whole election process will be considered as flawed. Published in The Express Tribune, December 25th, 2012. =================== Chronicle of carnage: As elections beckon, political violence mounts By Peer Muhammad Published: December 26, 2012 Third week of December witnesses a slew of target killings, sectarian attacks. PHOTO: FILE ISLAMABAD: As the country heads towards the general elections, political violence is on the rise. This month, in the third week alone, 241 people were affected in 41 incidents across the country. Approximately 75 people died and 166 suffered injuries. Although a comparison of the second and third weeks of December reveal that the number of incidents went down from 52 to 41, more people were killed and wounded in the third week. This indicates a clear increase in the lethality of the occurrences. In the second week, 61 people were killed and 51 injured. According to a recent study conducted by the Free and Fair Election Network (FAFEN), 22 incidents were reported in Sindh, 10 in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, 6 in Balochistan, two in Federally Administered Tribal Areas (Fata), and one in Gilgit-Baltistan. No incident of political violence was reported in Punjab in this week, while the most casualties were reported from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. During the week, target killings and sectarian attacks riddled the country. Furthermore, bomb blasts remained a prominent militant tactic, injuring 79 people across the country. The Khyber agency was the most violent area during the third week (19 killed, 71 injured), followed by Peshawar (five killed, 46 injured). Two high-profile attacks took place in Peshawar, one in which Provincial Minister Bashir Ahmed Bilour lost his life. He was a key political figure, a voice against militancy in the region. Karachi claimed a spot as the third most violent city, witnessing 25 deaths, and a plethora of targeted attacks, sectarian conflict, and violence against health workers. ANP spokesperson Senator Zahid Khan commented on the rising political violence in the country and said his party has been the biggest victim. However, he added that the ANP still believes in democracy and will not allow the upcoming polls to be postponed. “We have been making sacrifices and will continue doing so for the sake of democracy,” he maintained. Khan also said that the writ of the government is crucial in managing the affairs of the state. According to him, some entities working for anti-state agendas want to postpone elections. He proposed that all political parties sit together and draw up an effective security policy, so that political violence can finally be curbed.

Posted 14 December 2012 - 06:12 AM The Americans Must watch out for the revenge of the Jihadists! Following the US invasion of Iraq, Al-Qaeda found a fertile ground supported by local Sunni Arabs and remnants of Saddam regime. One of the most notorious Al-Qaeda Emir in Iraq wss no other than Abu Musaab Al-Zarqawi, an Afghan veteran with violent anti-American track record including the Killing of CIA station chief in Amman. Al-Zarqawi is known for his ruthless suicidal attacks and the beheading of Americans and their allies. Al-Zaqwai was tracked down by a Jordanian intelligence officer, Capt. Sharif Ali Bin Zeid which led to his death on the hands of the Americans in Iraq. But the Jihadists didn't forget this and Captain Bin Zeid was followed to Afghanistan where he was killed by a Jordanian-Al-Qaeda double agent, Dr Hammam Khaleel Mohammed, on December 31 2009. Dr Mohammed was recruited while in Prison in Jordan to track Dr Ayman Al-Zawahiri. In Syria, the brother-in-law of late Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi, Mr Abu Jileed Al-Tubasi (Al-Zarqawi) was appointed yesterday 13.12.2012 to the post of an Emir of the Nusrat front. The same front which the US considers as terrorist. The second Al-Zarqawi intends to seek revenge for the killing of Bin Laden. At this moment, it will not be difficult to the kidnapping and the beheading of special-forces members of US, France, Israel, UK and a large number of CIA-hired civilian contractors directing the street fights. If Mr Assad ever decide to call it a day, the Americans will have no where to hide, as the Nusrat front is the most effective fighting force in the country with increasing support from the youth. The USraelis, that are currently seeding the winds, will eventually reap the hurricanes. No-one will fight the Americans and the British more than those humiliated, tortured and imprisoned without trial by the CIA and MI-6. Sending the Guantanamo and Bagram detainees to Turkey, as Putin has allegedly said, means to directing the resistance against the Americans. As an example, Al-Nusrat front don't want foreign intervention in Syria or have peace with Israel. Good luck to the USraelis. "They make a desert and will call it victory" I hope that the Usraelis stop meddling in the affairs of others. Now it is too late, as the Geni is out of the bottle. In Syria there will be losers but no winners. I somehow believe that Alqaeda, the Israelis and their US-Gulf Arab mentors will suffer significan strategic losses. We have seen what foreign interventions done in Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya. And we will be here to witness the fiasco in Syria. Adnan Darwash, Iraq Occupation Times ================ THE POLITICAL DYNAMICS OF PAKISTAN: By Prof. Dr. Gholam Mujtaba Those killed by Syrian government's brutality are not Muslims, claims a news-report. QUESTION-1: Since when, Sunni Muslims (who form the majority in Syria) or those killed by Syria's minority brutal regime have been thrown out of Islam ? QUESTION-2: What is the story behind the story of Allama Tahirul Qadri ? Comments: Pl do not divide the Sunnis into =Wahabis or Barelvis to promote your designs of divide & rule. To us, all of us, including Shias & Sunnis are vital organs of Muslim nations. And those outside of Islam are equally important to us as well. Who are we to discriminate, when God himself is "RABUL A'ALAMEEN", & Prophet of Islam, SWS, is "RAHMATULLIL A'ALAMEEN". We are not ordained to send others to hell-fire ? It is thy Lord whose domain we need not to interfere. We need to follow the path defined to us, that does not allow us to promote 'dogmatism' or hatred. Allama Tahirul Qadri is the President of the PAT (Pakistan Awami Tehreek). + Agha Murtaza Poya is the Senior Vice President of the PAT. Agha Saheb in his statement published in the Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA) declares that Iran can give new social system to the world. Thus, should we conclude that an Iranian system is promoted by PAT in Pakistan. [ Reference: http://www.irna.ir/en/NewsPrint.aspx?ID=80355295 ] = MQM's Altaf Hussain has FULLY ENDORSED PAT AND TODAY Former President Pervez Musharraf's APML ENDORSED PAT. Which shows a U-TURN of Pervez Musharraf, a tilt towards Iran. SHOULD PAKISTAN JOIN HANDS WITH IRAN + Syria and say goodbye to Turkey & Saudi Arabia ? Should Pakistan condone SUNNI massacre in Syria. Should Pakistan oppose expulsion of Syria from the 56 member states of the OIC (Organization of Islamic Cooperation ? Is this a national security interest of Pakistan ? Are we fighting someone else's war within the boundaries of Pakistan ? What is the TRUTH ? HOWEVER, I MUST MAKE IT CLEAR that: To me, my Shia brothers are equally important as my Sunni brothers. I do not discriminate none of them, but would always stand against INJUSTICE & BRUTALITY even it is my REAL brother. This is the bottom line. Furthermore, Jews, Muslims, Christians, Buddhists, Hindus, Sikhs etc etc are all equal in the eyes of God, and why should they be different to me. It is humanity, that stands above all. All human beings are equal irrespective of color, creed or religious denomination. JOKE OF THE DAY: Muttehida-Musharraf League-Awami Tehreek Joint Mahaz Quaid= Allama Tahirul Qadri Chairman=Altaf Hussain Secretary=Pervez Musharraf TREASURER: Agha Murtaza Poya Manifesto: Friendship with PIA ( Pakistan -Iran - Afghanistan) Alliance Cut off ties with : Saudi Arabia, Turkey & OIC Support: Syria to kill its majority Sunnis Distraction: Defame the United States Hostility: Protest in Islamabad over an expected verdict against Altaf Hussain on a contempt case on JAN-07, protests follow starting JAN-10 onwards to save Syrian asset, the MQM. Target: [ 1 ] :Subdue Supreme Court's action on Altaf. [ 2 ] :Create law & order situation post judgment on Altaf to make it possible for the EXECUTIVE to remove the Chief Justice on the pretext of public uproar. Remedy: Take a preemptive measure by invoking MPO (Maintenance of Public Order) over the mastermind to house-arrest. THE "RATS" GRAND ALLIANCE = Rejected + Abandoned + Turned Down + Saboteurs [ALLIANCE] = MQM + APML + PAT or = Mr. Altaf Hussain + Pres. Pervez Musharraf + Allama Tahirul Qadri = Getting ready to fight with the JUDICIARY, why? Mr. Altaf Hussain EVADING law & criminal cases in the SC + Pres. Musharraf - do - do - do - Both violators of local laws Both + Allama Qadri "runaways" ......ABROAD Both scared of the Supreme Court Allama, the new guardian leading the saboteurs, the RATS ALLIANCE, to sabotage Supreme Court's orders for Altaf Hussain's physical appearance on January-07 by destabilizing Islamabad on the 10th of January and onwards. It is a constitutional matter of MPO (Mintenance of Public Order ). Why shouldn't, MPO be invoked on this obstruction of Justice ? The only purpose of today's JALSA was a warm-up session, and a public mobilizing campaign to start a crusade against judiciary in the backdrop of an expected judicial action against Altaf on the 7th of Jan. The dates announced by Allama, and the venue correlates to find the cat out of the bag ? Alas ! so specific ? MY PERSONAL ASSESSMENT: Allama Tahirul Qadri, a new CUSTODIAN cum GUARDIAN of Altaf Hussain in Pakistan to create a SITUATION out of an expected DEFAULT on Supreme Court's mandatory physical appearance of Altaf Hussain on January-07. He wants to CREATE UNREST in Islamabad to protect that interest. THIS IS WHY BOTH ALTAF + QADRI disclosed IDENTITY OF VIEWS before the JALSA. Allama Qadri calls for protest in Islamabad starting January-10th to extend support to MQM's ALTAF HUSSAIN to subdue Supreme Court's Action against Altaf on January-07. He is a threat to MAINTENANCE OF PUBLIC ORDER (MPO). Based on his preachings on constitution, why an MPO be not applied on him obstructing JUSTICE in Islamabad. . Allama criticizes the parliament, but with the same breath welcomes the 50 member MQM delegation that represents the government and the parliament. WHAT IS A PROPER WORD TO THIS HYPOCRISY IN URDU ? IS HE CREATING AN ENVIRONMENT TO SAVE ALTAF HUSSAIN FROM HIS MANDATORY PHYSICAL APPEARANCE ON JANUARY-07, 2013. IS THIS THE MAIN PURPOSE OF HIS PREACHING LAW & CONSTITUTIONAL LAW TODAY ? ALLAMA QADRI: A GREAT LIAR OF TODAY: Says 30 lacs sitting in his JALSA ? Where is his oath on Quran before the start of this JALSA ? Can I ask as to how he knows that there are 30 lacs not 29 lacs ? WHAT A LIAR ? SUMMARY: QUESTION: 1. IS IT NOT A FACT THAT ALTAF HUSSAIN IS A FUGITIVE IN PAKISTANI LAW ? IF YES, then which constitution is Allama Qadri PROMOTING through HOODWINK ? 2. Talking of Tax Laws & income? ALLAMA what about the income of ALTAF HUSSAIN whose party is sitting next to you ? 3. What about "BHATTA" & "BORI BAND LASH" politics of MQM during its governments in the past 24 years ? Allama: Which Law are you promoting ? A SPEECH FULL OF BLUFF, LIES, HOODWINK & HYPOCRISY ? FIFTH QUESTION: "TAHIRUL QADRI JALSA" Allama Qadri EMPHASIZING on Constitution ? Where is that CONSTITUTION when the BIGGEST VIOLATORS OF LAW, the MQM SITTING NEXT TO HIM ? Does that constitution has no consequence on a Pakistani FUGITIVE sitting in London and EVADING LAW and the constitution of Pakistan ? Does that constitution of Allama Qadri provides IMPUNITY TO ALTAF HUSSAIN from appearance before the SUPREME COURT on January-7, 2013 . Allama is shouting of HONESTY ? WHERE IS THAT HONESTY WHEN ALTAF HUSSAIN VIOLATES PAKISTANI LAWS AS A FUGITIVE ? , and that TEAM of law violators are sitting on his stage ? IS HE MAKING A MOCKERY OF LAW ? FOURTH QUESTION: "TAHIRUL QADRI JALS" Allama Qadri giving lesson on election & constitution's TRANSPARENCY. REBUTTAL : How come the pioneers of rigging, the MQM is SITTING NEXT TO HIM ? WHAT A CLASSICAL BLUFF ???? THIRD QUESTION: "TAHIRUL QADRI JALSA" WHY SO MUCH POISON ABOUT MILITARY LEADERSHIP ? SECOND QUESTION: "TAHIRUL QADRI JALSA" Who is promoting the audience through a BLURRED vision to look bigger on the GEO-TV ? Why the same audience is shown with a REAL vision by the DUNYA TV ? Is it the difference in the management promoting their ideology ? QUESTION OF THE DAY ? Allama Tahirul Qadri addressing the crowd in Lahore. " Main us siyasat ko reject karta hon jo Karachi kay peaceful shahar ko dahshat gardi ka nishana bana chuka hai", Dr. Tahirul Qadri. REALITY: " I welcome the 50 member delegation of MQM in the jalsa", Tahirul Qadri. REBUTTAL: Dr. Qadri , if the second Caliph of Islam had to be accountable for state affairs during his Khilafat, why can't the MQM be held responsible for "terror" during its 24 years in Government. TRUTH: Pre-MQM was a peaceful Karachi while Post-MQM is an INSECURE Karachi. QUESTION: Dr. Qadri are you expressing the truth, or trying to promote your AGENDA to look to be TRUTH. From the Admin: POLL RESULTS ON THE INTERNET THROUGH FACEBOOK; Dr. Gholam Mujtaba = 61,278 votes vs Mr. Altaf Hussain = 40,129 votes Dr. Gholam Mujtaba DEFEATS Mr. Altaf Hussain by over 30% votes. زبانِ خلق کو نقارہِ خدا سمجھو خلق جسے کہے بجا، اُسے بجا سمجھو KPK Senior Minister, Bashir Ahmed Bilour passed away after being critically injured in a suicide attack. We expect a news to surface blaming/ &/ accepting of the charges by the Taliban, however, other avenues of such conspiracy against Pakistan should not be IGNORED. "I strongly condemn this assassination of a great leader, an asset of Pakistan. We need to explore the real culprits responsible for such acts to destabilize Pakistan", said Dr. Gholam Mujtaba in a press statement tonight. WE STRICTLY BELIEVE ABOVE SHIA-SUNNI SECTARIAN DIVIDE, YET QUESTION THE BRUTALITY NO MATTER WHERE IT ORIGINATES: WHERE ARE YOU ? WHY NO VOICE ON SUNNI GENOCIDE IN SYRIA against the BRUTAL MINORITY GOVERNMENT of "ALAWIS" in Syria ??? Allama Tahirul Qadri + Former President Pervez Musharraf + Mr. Altaf Hussain + others = where is your voice ??? = A SOLID DISTRACTION. SILENCE MEANS WHAT ??? Holding a PUBLIC meeting on the 23rd and NOT RAISING a single word for Sunni massacre.....IS IT A DISTRACTION of public opinion ? When "HAMAS" fired rockets at Israel at a " S P E C I F I C " "T I M E" to divert public opinion from SYRIA'S SUSPENSION of 56 member OIC (Organization of Islamic nations) membership, hue & cry against the U.S. were raised ?

The battle had pitted rebels, backed by some Palestinians, against Palestinian fighters of the pro-Assad Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command (PFLP-GC). Many PFLP-GC fighters defected to the rebel side and their leader Ahmed Jibril left the camp two days ago, rebel sources said. "All of the camp is under the control of the (rebel) Free Syrian Army," said a Palestinian activist in Yarmouk. He said clashes had stopped and the remaining PFLP fighters retreated to join Assad's forces massed on the northern edge of the camp. The battle in Yarmouk is one of a series of conflicts on the southern fringes of Assad's capital, as rebels try to choke the power of the 47-year-old leader after a 21-month-old uprising in which 40,000 people have been killed. Government forces have used jets and artillery to try to dislodge the fighters but the violence has crept into the heart of the city and activists say rebels overran three army stations in a new offensive in the central province of Hama on Monday. On the border with Lebanon, hundreds of Palestinian families fled across the frontier following the weekend violence in Yarmouk, a Reuters witness said. Syria hosts half a million Palestinian refugees, most living in Yarmouk, descendants of those admitted after the creation of Israel in 1948, and has always cast itself as a champion of the Palestinian struggle, sponsoring several guerrilla factions. Both Assad's government and the mainly Sunni Muslim Syrian rebels have enlisted and armed divided Palestinian factions as the uprising has developed into a civil war. "NEITHER SIDE CAN WIN" Syrian Vice President Farouq al-Sharaa said in a newspaper interview published on Monday that neither Assad's forces nor rebels seeking to overthrow him can win the war. Sharaa, a Sunni Muslim in a power structure dominated by Assad's Alawite minority, has rarely been seen since the revolt erupted in March 2011 and is not part of the president's inner circle directing the fight against Sunni rebels. But he is the most prominent figure to say in public that Assad will not win. Sharaa said the situation in Syria was deteriorating and a "historic settlement" was needed to end the conflict, involving regional powers and the U.N. Security Council and the formation of a national unity government "with broad powers". "With every passing day the political and military solutions are becoming more distant. We should be in a position defending the existence of Syria. We are not in a battle for an individual or a regime," Sharaa was quoted as telling Al-Akhbar newspaper. "The opposition cannot decisively settle the battle and what the security forces and army units are doing will not achieve a decisive settlement," he said, adding that insurgents fighting to topple Syria's leadership could plunge it into "anarchy and an unending spiral of violence". Sources close to the Syrian government say Sharaa had pushed for dialogue with the opposition and objected to the military response to an uprising that began peacefully. In a veiled criticism of the crackdown, he said there was a difference between the state's duty to provide security to its citizens, and "pursuing a security solution to the crisis". He said even Assad could not be certain where events in Syria were leading, but that anyone who met him would hear that "this is a long struggle...and he does not hide his desire to settle matters militarily to reach a final solution." In Hama province, rebels and the army clashed in a new campaign launched on Sunday by rebels to block off the country's north, activists said. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an opposition-linked violence monitor, said fighting raged through the provincial towns of Karnaz, Kafar Weeta, Halfayeh and Mahardeh. It said there were no clashes reported in Hama city, which lies on the main north-south highway connecting the capital with Aleppo, Syria's second city. Qassem Saadeddine, a member of the newly established rebel military command, said on Sunday fighters had been ordered to surround and attack army positions across the province. He said Assad's forces were given 48 hours to surrender or be killed. In 1982 Hafez al-Assad, father of the current ruler, crushed an uprising in Hama city, killing up to 30,000 civilians. Qatiba al-Naasan, a rebel from Hama, said the offensive would bring retaliatory air strikes from the government but that the situation is "already getting miserable".
