Today's Pak "expert": US a hostage to powerful Jewish lobby
2003-04-14
The United States Middle East policy is aimed at expansion of Israel and destruction of the military capability of Muslim countries in the region, said a Pakistani expert. Talking to IRNA, a Pakistan Peoples Party senior member, Izhar Amrohvi, said that the US has been a hostage to the powerful Jewish lobby and the same is reflected in its policy towards Muslim states and other weaker nations.
That's terrible. Meryl! Stop it this instant! Judith! Knock it off!
"Under the Israel-centric policy, America was focusing on how to protect and strengthen the Zionist regime in the Middle East," he said, citing the current aggression on Iraq as an obvious example of this policy.
Oh, obviously. It's all about Je-e-e-e-ws!
In each election, he pointed out, the powerful Jewish lobby in America plays a crucial role and influences pro-Israel presidential candidates. He was firmly of the view that the unilateral and unjust military aggression against Iraq would have a far-reaching impact on regional as well as global politics.
He's got that part right, anyway. Kinda like the Gordian knot that Rabbi Alexander dealt with...
In the second stage, Amrohvi, who is a parliamentary party secretary of the PPP in the lower house of parliament, said that some other Islamic countries like Syria could become the US' and its allies' next targets, notwithstanding the open and clear opposition of the world community.
Well, of Pak "experts" anyway. I think even in the Arab world there aren't many who care a big vent of methane about Syria...
He pointed to the fact that Washington has of late been already hurling threats and accusing Syria of possessing chemical and biological weapons. He blasted the US for its double-standard polices, and dubbed it the "top international terrorist, putting at stake world peace to pursue its own and Israel's interests."
Like killing terrorists. Pak "experts" hate it when that happens...
To a question, he maintained that the only possible way of countering any challenge to Israel's expansionist designs would be for Islamic nations to forge unity in their ranks, setting aside petty differences. Needless to say, he said, one by one all Muslim nations with military capability and sound economic bases would fall prey to America's immoral and unjust policies if they fail to forge unity.
"Yes! Rather than reform our corrupt and stagnant societies, we should all band together to oppose the Americans and Brits and the Israelis, with their insidious prosperity, their hypocritical freedom from being beaten to death in the streets by fundos, with their nonsensical individual rights..."

#7  I only seek the truth. Well, you know, the stuff I want to hear.
All my Pak experiences are just personal relates, -emigrees. When I meet a muslim I always ask my acid test question, -"Do you believe suicide bombers go to heaven?" (then depending upon their answer - I kill them) I worked with two about 6 mos ago ans asked them.
Both these guys didn't hesitate, "no! They go Hell!" Which tells me (probably nothing) they're likely nominal muslims. But they said their view is the general one throughout Pak. They also said they REALLY like Pervez (hey, he approved their exit visas!)and that they believed he would stand up with the US against fundis even in Paki.
They also said they hate and mistrust India and like Jesus. (just LIKE, oh well, it's a start)
I know it's dangerous to make a general out of a specific, but it does shed a little light.
Musharrif is walking a high wire like a Wallenda. So far, I give him a break. But of course, I've been wrong before...

#6  IRNA has missed another great opportunity to shut up. Their HQ is an excellent destination for an errant Tomahawk.

Oh my God!
America is putting America first? America is putting her only true ally in the ME first? Why is she not bowing to Islamonazi terror tactics like France?
This will not stand! The world must Islamicized!
forge unity in their ranks, setting aside petty differences

He's not serious is he?
These freakazoids can't quit killing each other for 20 effin' minutes, let alone band together to oppose America. Their lives orbit around tribalistic nonsense.
The most they can crank out is a few nutjobs with no sense of self-preservation who will blow themselves up in a deluded belief of instant access to the Muslim Mustang Ranch in the sky.
Gimme a break...

#4  Shall I wax lyrical about Our Good Friend Perv? He's a man with feet of purest clay, always guaranteed to disappoint. He rounds up the crazed killers and we cheer. We're not supposed to notice that they're not jugged, they're under "house arrest." Three months later they're free to go. It's all gesture, with no follow-through. He's determined to keep the jihad going in Kashmir, and I'm convinced he's also decided to go for "strategic depth" in Afghanistan, using the same tactics.

Perv knows who and where the heads of Lashkar and Jaish are - the former runs Jamaat ad-Dawa and he's in the papers regularly. The latter the Indos have been trying to have extradited. He was Omar Saeed Sheikh's roommate in jug in India, and both were freed when an Indian airliner was hijacked to Kandahar. He's walking the streets. The head of Sipah e-Sahaba's in the legislature. So are Qazi, Fazl, and Noorani, the heads of the three largest eye-rolling, spittle-spewing fundo organizations.

Most everything on Pakistan that's been collected here for the past year and a half has been from the Pak press - Dawn, NNI, Friday Times, Pak News, Jang/Nation and a few others. It's not Indian propaganda. The Pak press paints a picture of a nation like no other, a nation of loons, led by a tin-hat who's a good illustration of the difference between crafty and canny. They make Yemen look civilized fergawdsake!

My sympathy goes out to those Paks who aren't a part of it - but I get the impression that's about a dozen people.

#3  Fred is not the only voice in the wilderness on Pakistan. We had to make a deal with the devil to get to Afghanistan and the way there was through Pakistan. All the fundos and nutcases are doing their best to deep six all we have accomplished in Afghanistan. Pakistan is a big jar of picric acid on top of a shelf, waiting to fall. Musharrif is trying to hold a bale of crazies together and placate the US at the same time. Palistan's fundos keep the Kashmere pot boiling, the military has nukes that they rattle from time to time, they have madrasses that promote more of this rabid dog foamer behavior. I would say that they are a big problem for us and for any progress in making ME better. Otherwise things in Karachi are great.........

#2  Everytime I see the J-e-e-e-w-w-s comment it reminds me of Kinky Friedman (Jewish himself) on Imus's show saying that Jews was a multisyllabic word in Texas - lol

#1  Fred, it seems you really do have a wild hair about Pakistan. You might very well be the voice in the wilderness. While everybody else took the deke in the west ME...
How do you view Musharrif?
