Qazi Links Future Of Muslim World To Islamic Movements
2003-03-03
Amir of Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan and parliamentary leader of the Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal, Qazi Hussain Ahmed has said that the future of the Muslim world is linked to the Islamic movements.
"In other words, to me."
"These movement are the true representatives of the sentiments of the Muslims," he said while delivering an indoctrination a lecture to the officers of Foreign Office here on Saturday. This was the first time that such kind of briefing was arranged in which the parliamentary leader of any political or religious party addressed top bureaucrats of the Foreign Office. The lecture was attended by the Foreign Minister Khursheed Mahmood Kasuri, Foreign Secretary Riaz Khokhar and other high officials of the Foreign Office.
I hope Nancy's keeping an eye on this trend. If I was her, I'd be howling...
Qazi said that Islamic movements could never be ignored while formulating policies and warned any such effort of sidelining these movements would cause instability.
That means that if Perv doesn't do what Qazi and Fazl and Sami want, they're going to riot...
He said Pakistan was supporting US while putting our own interests at stake. Muslims were victims of the brutalities of the oppressive states. "No one talks of the brutalities unleashed against the Palestinians, Kashmiris and Muslims of many other countries," he added.
Unless you're literate and read the papers...
The US would not spare Pakistan after destroying Iraq and some other Muslim countries, Qazi made it clear. He said that Pakistan should free its policy from US pressure to save its sovereignty. He lauded the stance taken by the Malaysian PM, Saudi Arabian FM, Prince Abdullah and Iranian President, Muhammad Khatami over Iraq issue.
Two out of three of them are on the poop list, one of them on the public poop list. Qazi discounts the very idea of Pak changing its ways and not being a terrorist state. That's the only way off the poop list...
He said the Quaid-e-Azam, in his first speech to the nation, took very clear stance on Palestine and said that the creation of the state of Palestine was as important as the creation of Pakistan. Qazi urged that Pakistan should play a leading role for the survival of Muslim world.
By providing lots of cheap muscle and a few bearded, beturbanned lunatics to lead them...
He said sovereignty of the country must be guarded at every cost and this goal can only be achieved through achieving self-reliance. "We cannot make independent policies without leading simple lives," Qazi said adding that the rulers should reject luxurious style of life," he added.
Not that it's desirable for holy men to follow that advice, mind you...
Regarding the Legal Framework Order, he said the military ruler imposed it and it cannot become the part of the Constitution without approval of the elected parliament. "The MMA is working for the supremacy of the parliament and the Constitution," he said.
"If Perv likes it, we're against it..."

#1  Let's see, under the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, any law that is contrary to the "injunctions of Islam" is without force and effect. Ergo, the LFO, which permits "islam's enemies" (kufrs) to uses military bases in Pigistan, and gives Mushy a free hand at killing Islamic jihadis, is legally dead-letter. And the present Islamist Parliament has no intention of placing the LFO in the constitution. Therefore U.S. troops should vacate the terror state at the earliest opportunity, and end the kid's gloves treatment of the Pashtuns. The U.S. policy of "containment" of the jihad, is not reflective of the position of strength that the U.S. retains. Theatre operants should put away the smart bombs, and bring out: anti-personnel mines, napalm and pliers (viz POWs)
