Jundullah men free 4 UTPs

Sunday, June 20, 2010

KARACHI: Another security lapse at the city courts on Saturday allowed activists of a banned outfit to set free their accomplices from the custody of police. Sources said there were inadequate arrangements to curtail such incidents and the culprits even consumed drugs brought by their friends and relatives while in the court premises. The negligence of law enforcement agencies and court administration is evident as even high profile prisoners freely roam inside the court premises. Lawyers informed that as per the law, at least two police constables should accompany three culprits, who should be chained together. In the said incident, two constables were accompanying four prisoners, who were freely roaming in the premises without any chains. Meanwhile, court officials are also responsible, as they do not implement laws when prisoners are brought for hearings. Sources said the police should plan an advanced strategy before bringing any notorious criminals to the court. atif raza



2 dead, 3 injured in city courts attack

* Police constable Shahbaz Ghulam Rasool and UTP Murad Shah killed

By Faraz Khan

KARACHI: A policeman and a Jundullah militant were killed, while three under-trial prisoners (UTPs) escaped on Saturday in an attack at the city courts by Jundullah activists.

As per details, some six to eight militants entered the city courts around midday through Masjid-e-Bilal located inside the courts’ premises to free their four under-trial companions, hurling hand grenades and resorting to blanket firing.

Police constable Shahbaz Ghulam Rasool, 37, was deputed outside the courts lockup when the militants killed him and freed their companions, providing them with hand grenades.

Following the attack, the mosque’s windows were shattered and its exterior suffered damage as well.

It is pertinent to mention here that the four Jundullah militants - Murad Shah, Shakeeb Farooqui, Murtaza and Wazeer - were arrested for their involvement in the Muharram 8, 9 and 10 incidents.

These four militants belong to Jundullah’s third chain led by Arab militant Hamza Joffy alias Haji Mumtaz, an al-Qaeda operative.

As per senior police officials, the attackers were split in two groups, one of which was responsible for freeing their companions, while the other was responsible for transporting them.

After fleeing the court premises, a police mobile intercepted the UTPs near Jodia Bazaar.

The militants attacked the mobile and a battle ensued. Police succeeded in shooting one of the militants, Shah, who was trying to attack the mobile with a hand grenade. The hand grenade blew up in his hand, resulting in his immediate death.

Three passers-by identified as Sarfaraz, Abdul Kalam and Usman were also wounded in the incident and taken to the hospital.

However, the militants, including the three escaped prisoners, escaped before the heavy contingent of law enforcers arrived at the scene.

Special Investigation Unit chief Senior Superintendent of Police Raja Umer Khattab has termed Farooqui and Murtaza as a big threat.

He said these four militants were being tried at the Anti-Terrorism Court, but the case of recovery of a car was being heard at the lower court.

As per reports, security has been beefed up and a special team to arrest the militants has been formed.

Federal Interior Minister Rehman Malik has instructed the director general of the Pakistan Rangers, Sindh and Capital City Police Officer Waseem Ahmed to ensure the arrest of the militants.

Moreover, the government has announced a reward of Rs 1 million for providing information that leads to the arrest of the Jundullah militants.

Suicide blasts kill 26 at Iraqi state-sector bank

BAGHDAD, June 20 (Reuters) - Two suicide bombers detonated cars laden with explosives outside the Trade Bank of Iraq on Sunday, killing 26 people in the latest attack to raise concerns about the nation's stability after an inconclusive election.

Fifty-three people were wounded in the blasts that blew in the windows of the bank, one of the public sector's most active financial institutions and at the forefront of efforts to encourage foreign investment as the sectarian bloodshed set off after the 2003 U.S.-led invasion fades.

A week earlier, gunmen and suicide bombers laid siege to the central bank in Baghdad, killing 18 people and fueling fears that insurgents are trying to exploit a political vacuum that followed the March 7 election which produced no outright winner.

Baghdad security spokesman Major General Qassim al-Moussawi said two cars packed with around 80 kilograms of ammonium nitrate each were driven at the gates of the Trade Bank of Iraq and detonated on striking blastwalls protecting the building.

He put the initial death toll at 18, but an Interior Ministry source said later it had risen to 26.

The blasts left two charred craters a few metres apart in the main thoroughfare in front of the bank. The building was badly damaged. Five guards were killed and six wounded, said bank chairman Hussein al-Uzri in a statement. "However, this cowardly attack was a failure. The Trade Bank of Iraq, and Iraq itself, are undeterred," Uzri said.

A bank employee who asked not to be identified said the damage and toll would have been worse had guards not protected it and its windows not consisted of shatterproof glass.

At least two of the dead were police officers guarding a nearby Interior Ministry office that issues Iraqi identity cards, ministry sources said.

"I feel so sorry for what is happening to my country," said Mahmoud Asi, who was wounded along with his wife in the blast near his home. Blood stained his clothes. "All the bank's guards were killed," he said.

AL QAEDA?

Security officials blamed the June 13 central bank attack on Sunni Islamist insurgents linked to al Qaeda, saying they were trying to prove they remained potent after suffering significant blows this year, including the killing of their Iraq leaders.

They said that attack was also an attempt to reignite violence between majority Shi'ites and once dominant Sunnis after the election, which has yet to produce a new government.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for Sunday's assault on the Trade Bank of Iraq, but suicide bombings are a hallmark of al Qaeda and other Sunni Islamist groups. Moussawi told local television al Qaeda was suspected.

Overall violence has dropped sharply since the all-out sectarian warfare of 2006-07, but shootings and bombings continue daily, frequently targeting security forces, officials or former Sunni insurgents who switched sides.

The political uncertainty since the election threatens to muddy U.S. intentions to end combat operations in August ahead of a full U.S. withdrawal by the end of 2011.

While there was no outright election winner, a merger of the main Shi'ite-led coalitions in the new parliament is expected to squeeze out the vote leader, a cross-sectarian alliance heavily backed by Sunnis, in the competition to form a government.

The leader of the cross-sectarian Iraqiya list, former Prime Minister Iyad Allawi, has warned that frustration among Sunni voters could lead to increased violence if he is sidelined. (Writing by Michael Christie and Matt Robinson; Editing by David Stamp)

US Iraqi interpreter killed by his son

Just in: !


US Iraqi interpreter killed by his son!
According to police sources in Tikrit, an Iraqi interpreter was shot to death by his today 18.06.10. The father was warned not to help the Americans in their criminal occupation of Iraq. It was one of the many attacks on those Iraqis helping the American savages in their killing and destruction. But it is the first time that a son kills his father for betraying the country. Like in Vietnam all those who served the Americans must leave the country with them when they decide on retreat.

The rising mercury of the thermometer has caused people to rise up against the US-imported corrupt Iraqi business men and traitors who entered Baghdad behind the US tanks. The likes of Dr Allawi and Al-Maliki and their pro-US gangs have robbed Iraq and failed to repair the damage done by their American's mentors to Iraqi infrastructure. In Basrah (Iraq second largest city) today 19.06.10 thousands marched on the governor house asking for electricity and water while the temperature hits 47 Celsius in the shade. Three people were killed and many have been wounded. Similar demonstrations took place in other cities. In a number of other cities people did not use peaceful means as the violence today caused scored of deaths. It is not only in Iraq but this summer seems to be extremely bloody for the US forces and their allies in Afghanistan where attacks are being recorded on a daily basis. That is at the time when scores of USraeli war ships have already crossed the Suez Canal on their way to the Persian Gulf. No one knows how far the Americans will go fighting Jewish wars. I heard that the Israelis have asked the Americans to recruit and pay for mercenaries to beef up their forces on the Lebanese front.

Hitler used the same logic


Do not forget that Nazi Germany killed 24 million Russians while losing three million soldiers. But in the end, Hitler committed suicide and the Red Army entered Berlin. Right now, the Americans are arming, financing and supporting Israeli Nazi-style crimes. But regardless, Israel will collapse and Jews will go back to where they came from. The French stayed in Algiers between 1830-1960.There were four million French settlers guarded by 300,000 troops including tough foreign legionaries.No French man can walk freely in Algiers today. He who does not learn the lessons of history is apt to repeat Hitler mistakes.


Similarities with German Nazi Practices


The German Nazis had also killed brown-skinned Germans albeit being Christians like them in order to maintain the purity of the superior Arian race. Similarly the Jews believe that they are superior to all God creatures. The Sephardim(A descendent of the Jews who lived in Spain and Portugal during the Middle Ages until persecution culminating in expulsion in 1492 forced them to leave.) have been historically mistreated in Israel by the Ashkenazi. The one million Russian Jews are more racist than the German Nazis. And like Nazi Germany before, Israel and its racist practices must disappear.


Liberation of Jerusalem passes through Kandahar


The USraeli occupation of Arab and Muslim lands started to receive mortal blows from the Arab and Muslim resistance fighters notably in Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Lebanon, Pakistan, Gaza, Somalia, Yemen and most recently in Turkey. But it is in Afghanistan where the Taliban started to punish America and its NATO allies, the real supporters of Israeli atrocities against Palestinians. It was the rise in the Taliban costly attacks that forced America to remove troops from Iraq and to redeploy them to Afghanistan. The Iraqi resistance did help to undermine the the military might of the US and to drain its financial resources. Furthermore, the tactics developed in Iraq against the US Panzers and their Wehermacht are being effectively used by the Taliban. The mounting human and material losses started to show results since people of most NATO countries started to see the futility of the US Jewish wars on Islam at the time of difficult economic crises and high unemployment. In order to complete the miserable scenario facing the West, desperate Israelis may launch a war soon which will extend the US wars to include other fronts with crippling losses to US and its allies. A Taliban victory against the armies of the US and its NATO allies will definitely put an end to US occupation of Iraq, the threats against Iran and pull the fangs of the Israeli Draculas. The present situation reminds many of 1944 on the eve of the surrender of Nazi General Paulus at Stalingrad, the defeat of the Nazi war machines at the hands of the Red Army that ended the Italian arrogance, the German occupation of Western Europe and the destruction of Berlin.


People started to doubt Israeli existence!


It is not only Helen Thomas who thought that the Jews should get the hell out of Palestinian lands and go to where they came from, but many observers in USA, Europe and even in Israel believe the same. The Israeli arrogance is comparable to that of Nazi Germany and is expected to meet the same fate. The Americans can't possibly fight the entire Muslim world on behalf of Israel.

Jose Maria Aznar is a member of the Axis of evil made up of Bush, Blair, Burlesconi and Aznar. They lied and deceived in order to destroy Iraq on behalf of Israel. He was rewarded by the Jewish lobby with US$ five millin and worked for Fox News. Like Tony Blair, Aznar knows that supporting Israel means cash. Like the Nayis, let all those who suport Israel to go to hell when Israel Nazi regime disappears. By the way, the US Jewish wars on Islam are becoming costly and very hard to sustain.

Website declares Zardari US citizen

Monday, June 14, 2010

By Azim M Mian

NEW YORK: A well-known US website, which contains the record of 36,000 prominent figures of the world, has declared President Asif Ali Zardari a US citizen, and said that he suffers from depression and is a diabetes patient.

The revelation of ‘Noteable Names Database’, the US website established in 2002, may create further problems for President Zardari and his comrades. The website says it collects such information about famous personalities through general sources, besides its own intelligence and other sources that are not known to the common man.

If the information given on the website is correct, President Zardari may have to face a court challenge for contesting the presidential election by concealing his foreign nationality, taking oath as the president of Pakistan in the presence of the US oath and other reasons. A US nationality holder takes oath to raise weapons against the anti-American elements and promises to perform his duty, keeping US oath and interests supreme to all other loyalties and oaths. While the president of Pakistan takes oath to abide by the Constitution and interests of Pakistan.

The website has declared Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan, Singer Nusrat Fateha Ali Khan, Benazir Bhutto, Nawaz Sharif, Pervez Musharraf, Ziaul Haq and Ayub Khan holders of Pakistani nationality.

Most British women bored with their lives

Updated at: 1755 PST, Wednesday, June 16, 2010 ShareThis story

LONDON: Their dissatisfaction was blamed on getting stuck in a routine and having no social life along with constant pressures at work.

Performing household chores on top of their jobs was also key to making women unhappy as well not having enough holidays.

Meanwhile some women said they were bored with never changing the way they look.

Elaine Smith, marketing manager for Florette Fruit, which surveyed 3,000 women said: "Women today are so busy trying to have it all - the job, the family, the social life - that somehow we've ended up with nothing.

"It is no surprise two thirds of British women are bored with their lives and half are sick of doing the same thing day in and day out.

"Women have lost the get-up-and-go to shake up their lives and try something different."

The survey found that almost seven out of ten females are bored of being short of money.

Nearly half said they were 'sick and tired' of their monotonous day to day life, while 46 per cent blamed their disappointing social life.

Four in ten said they hated their job while another four out of ten said they would be happier with life if they could take more holidays.

However, nine out of ten thought life would be improved with a little spontaneity.

Over a third of women liked the idea of packing their bags and emigrating to another country, while 31 per cent fantasised about telling people what they really thought of them.

It also emerged a quarter of women would like to walk into work and hand in their notice and the same percentage wished they could radically change their hairstyle.

Nearly half of women say a move away from their current house and town would make a massive difference, and 45 per cent reckon a change of appearance - such as hair, make up or wardrobe - would do them the world of good.

But 34 per cent of women don't have the confidence to make the necessary changes to their life to make them happy, while 29 per cent claim not to have the time.

London-based life coach Becki Houlston said: "Women across Britain have taken the first step by admitting they are bored of the monotony of their lives, but now need to address the 'buts' which get in the way of them grasping opportunities.

"Grabbing those spontaneous moments only takes place when we remove the barrier between what we want to do and actually taking action.

"A huge part of that interference is a 'but', whether it's 'I wish I could say yes to that invite, but I don't have the energy' or 'I wish I could relax but I need to get this done.'

"Buts' limit the exploration of possibilities by the brain and, along with the energy boost of eating fresh fruit, it's these possibilities that open the door for spontaneous actions - and the motivation for life which follows."

TOP 10 'BORES' 1. Routine 2. Lack of social life 3. Job 4. Lack of holidays 5. Housework 6. Appearance 7. Depressing news 8. Eating the same things all the time 9. The house 10. Responsibilities

TOP 10 THINGS WOMEN WISH THEY COULD DO 1. Go to an airport and get the next available flight to anywhere 2. Emigrate 3. Tell people what they really think of them 4. Hand in their notice without another job to go to 5. Have a dramatic hair cut 6. Put the house up for sale and buy a new one 7. Try something new in the bedroom 8. Go back to school 9. Book in for a boob job 10. Sing in public

Israeli Himmler investigates crimes of Jewish Hitler

Israeli Himmler investigates crimes of Jewish Hitler!!!
Nothing is more sarcastic than having Israeli officials investigating Israeli crimes and violations. On the morning of May 31st, Israeli commandos landed on the Turkish Marmara cruise ship and killed between 9-19 people on board. The ship destination was Gaza but the Israelis attacked the ship while it was sailing some 60 KM from Gaza border. Obama and Tony Blair have been trying to defuse the international pressure on Israel. Yesterday, Netanyau appointed his own people to investigate the criminal attack, naturally in self defence. Judging on past experiences military-religious mafia ruling Israel is the last one to be entrusted to carry out an impartial or independent investigation of its soldiers committing crimes. Here are some examples:
On October 6, 2000, Child Mohammed Al-Durrah was shot while on the lap of his father and on TV. Unashamedly, the Israeli investigation blamed the Palestinians for the killing.

On September 7, 2004, 13-year old Nuran Al-Hams was shot by an Israeli sniper on her way from School and in broad day light. The Israelis stated that rules of engagement were observed. The British Guardian.co.uk on October 21 wrote, "the a Plestinian girl riddled with bullets but no one to be blamed".

On 31.01.2005 a 10-year old girl was shot in the leg by an Israeli sniper. After falling to the ground, an Israeli officer rushed to empty his machine-gun magazine in her head. Naturally the Israelis came with the usual statement that the Israeli officer have observed the rules of the engagement as the girl might have been be a suicide attacker, albeit being already on the ground. The Israeli cold blooded criminals are shameless and one must not expect justice or fairness from them.

Former Cuban President Fidel Castro had has recently labelled the Israelis as Nazis who are ready to send the Palestinians to gas chambers. Many Americans firmly support Helen Thomas' conclusion that the Israelis should get the hell out of Palestinian lands and return to Russia, Poland or to the USA.


It is only because of American support the Israelis behave in such criminal and arrogant way. One day the Americans ma be forced on abandoning Israel and pay attention to their oen interests. Then the prediction of Helen Thomas will become a reality.

There is something drastically wrong with US foreign policy that ignores basic common sense. America is a nation of political Zombies led from the nose by the Jews. But the outside world is not. How on earth America accepts to appoint Israel as the Judge, the culprit and the prosecutor?

US discovers $1 trillion Afghan mineral deposits-NYT

In this May 26, 2010 photo, a Pakistani miner ...

In this May 26, 2010 photo, a Pakistani miner shows peace of rock with emeralds embed in, at a mountaintop in Shamozai, once used by insurgents as a base in Pakistan. A year after the Pakistani army ousted the militants from the Swat Valley, emerald miners again work in this mountaintop mine once used by insurgents as a base — a sign of progress in a region struggling to recover from conflict. Mining — for gems, marble, granite, chromite and coal — is one of the only industries, save for smuggling, in many parts of the northwest. The United States is helping the industry as part of a $7.5 billion package to Pakistan that it hopes will create jobs, dry up support for extremism and stop militants from returning.« Read less

SINGAPORE, June 14 (Reuters) - Afghanistan could be holding $1 trillion of untapped mineral deposits including critical industrial metals such as lithium, the New York Times reported, quoting U.S. government officials.

The previously unknown deposits of iron, copper, cobalt and gold are so huge that it could transform the impoverished nation into one of the world's important mining centres, the report on the newspaper's website said. (www.nytimes.com/)

The mineral wealth, discovered by a team of Pentagon officials and U.S. geologists, is scattered throughout the country including in the south and east along the border with Pakistan, where the Taliban-led insurgency is the most intense.

"There is stunning potential here," the newspaper quoted General David Petraeus, commander of the U.S. Central Command, as saying in an interview at the weekend. "There are lots of ifs, of course, but I think potentially it is hugely significant."

An internal Pentagon memo said Afghanistan could become the "Saudi Arabia of lithium", the New York Times said. Lithium is a key raw material in the manufacture of batteries for laptops and other electronics such as mobile telephones. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Afghanistan does not have any mining industry or infrastructure, so it will take decades for the country to exploit its mineral wealth fully, the paper quoted U.S. officials as saying.

The report about the country's untapped wealth is likely to intensify competition among regional players such as China, India and even Russia for a greater role in exploiting those resources.

Two Chinese firms have committed themselves to a $4 billion investment in the vast Aynak copper mine, south of Kabul, the biggest non-military foreign investment so far in the country.

Another big contract to mine an estimated 1.8 billion tonnes of high-quality iron ore in the remote mountainous region of Hajigak is expected to open for international bidding this year.

Firms from India and China are eyeing the contract, which the Afghan mines ministry says is the largest unmined iron deposit in Asia.

According to the U.S. study, the biggest deposits discovered so far are of iron and copper and the quantities are large enough to make Afghanistan a major world producer.

Other finds include large deposits of niobium, a soft metal used in producing superconducting steel, rare earth elements and large gold deposits in Pashtun areas of southern Afghanistan.
