Electing Karazai, what?!

Everyone knows that Hamid Karazai was an US citizen set up by the USA to act as 'President of Afghanistan'. He was never elected that position, his job was just sit around and pretend to run a country which is not at all in his control. Now for some absurd reason the USA thinks it would be a clever thing to do is to have elections in Afghanistan and to elect Karazai. With the country in chaos, the coalition forces unable to make any headway in their war against the Taliban - there are to be elections. Who is counting the votes? Where the polls taking place? The Americans did the same thing Iraq - placing a puppet regime, a puppet parliament the same rubbish being repeated in Afghanistan. Karazai will remain the puppet president the US needs and the election will be a stupid excercise and it will not change the fact that coaliton forces are still fighting with no end in sight. How many soldiers are the invaders prepared to lose? How much are they willing to spend on new weap...

Green Lantern of Krypton

The  Guardians of the Galaxy gave sentient beings on different planets the famous Green Lantern ring and the Green Lantern to charge it up.  The Kryptonians were a very technologically advanced race. The person who was given the ring travelled far from red sun and discovered in addition to the powers given to him by the Ring he wore.  General Zod wanted to rule Krypton and tried many times and failed till he came across Sinestro the evil Green Lantern. General Zod planned to use Sinestro for his own ends while Sinestro wanted destroy Krypton's Green Lantern.  It resulted in a stalemate. Krypton's Green Lantern told Jor-el that banishing criminals in distant space only would make them stronger and pose a great danger. Green Lantern asked Jor-el to make way to a dimension which would render criminals powerless and would not make them powerful.  General Zod and his gang ended up in the Phantom Zone. While Sinestro escaped Green Lantern fought him in space many times more powerful ...

Miss Pakistan

Uptil June 1977 Pakistan was a free thinking - extremely moderate Islamic country. Mullahs kept their noses out of everything. In fact if a mullah were to create scene he would be taken away by the police for disturbing the peace. Liquor shops, bars were open, massage parlors, there were discos and night-clubs. The main advertisements of the newspapers were about the latest foreign stripper in town. When protests against the ZA Bhutto the late prime minister, he thought by banning the sale of alcohol would end the demonstrations - he was mistaken, he was removed by most terrible military dictators. His agenda 'Islamise' Pakistani society. Evertything that existed till June 1977 disappeared. Even then time no party was without liquor being served in secret. It was normal pattern of life. Everything was there but remain hidden. General Zia may have been preparing Pakistan for something far worse. A communist government had overthrown the King Zahir Shah in Afghanistan, dur...

Terms of use madness

Perhaps what I say gets lost in translation - a site says it is the best sex chat site only to discover there are terms of use and everyone who is chatting extremely politely or it could be code. 'be polite but means something else'. I am the sort of of person who does not like hypocrisy in any form, particulary website pretending to let people exactly what they want and later find one has been booted out for being offensive, these some of the terms of service I have gathered from such website. You will not post on the Service, or transmit to other Members or employees, any defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, obscene, profane, offensive sexually oriented, threatening, harassing, racially offensive, or illegal material, or any material that infringes or violates another party's rights (including, but not limited to, intellectual property rights, and rights of privacy and publicity). We will remove any offending communication from the site or service and terminating the membersh...

The straw that broke the camel's back

  The Karachi Electricity Supply Company (KESC) finally did it:Not supplying electricity for 18 hours at a stretch.Sending bills which only some mulimillionaire can afford to pay, sometimes not even them.When the shop-keepers received the bills they got together and put all the bills in a huge pile and set them on fire. Defied the KESC who threatened to remove the meters. The people began to warn them against doing that - saying what they will do if the KESC does that.Strangely enough none of the members of the Sindh Provincial Assembly was there to resolve the mattter. It is as if the problems of the people of Karachi is not theirs. For some reason the Federal Government wants to interfere in an entirely provincial matter. The KESC has failed and will continue to do so, if it insists on doing this. The misery caused by KESC's incompetence and unreliable behaviour intolerable. Why should there one electricity supply company why not many more? The people in Karachi are absolute...

Online banking stinks

Now that all the banks have come online, in the haste to get the latest technology is that a few things were left behind, had they remained, they would be a great help.  I use the ATM much of the time, but a few days back, there was on the screen 'transaction cannot be completed'.  I tried once or twice then went to bank to next bank and received the same message. Later I returned to the bank to the ATM tried again and failed. This was the bank where I have saved my money. I went in and told some officer over there that the ATM machine is not working. He said he will do something about it - but he ran off somewhere else. I had my cheque book with me and decided to use it, instead of the ATM and the teller told me that his bank branch link with the head office of the bank ( in this case MCB) was down which is why neither the ATM cannot  conduct transactions and nothing could be done about my cheque unless the branch was back online with the head office. Nothing can be done unles...

Enough is enough back off USA

'Gates said that in his view the UN charter allows the United States to act in self-defence against international extremists in Pakistan if the government is unable or unwilling to deal with them' This is the US idea of friendly relations with Pakistan, I forgot - the USA is not a friend of Pakistan, it is only using Pakistan to attack the Taliban.  The USA does not regret killing Pakistanis. Like it has never regretted killing countless Vietnamese, Cambodians and Laotians.   Only the USA has the right to kill people and no one should dare defend themselves. Despite their insane war in Vietnam the USA was badly beaten and ran with its tail between its legs.  In order to fight in Vietnam there was an undeclared war against Cambodia and Laos.   The problem, many now say is that the bombers and fighter bombers flew so fast that the pilots did not know where they were, they had the coordinates wrong. The same thing happened in the Balkans.  US planes flew right across Serbia and bo...
