Australian Yellowcake to Pakistan

By Dr. Hassan Isfahani • Dec 6th, 2011 • Category: Politics

Injustices like this really create the frustration and deprivation in countries like Pakistan. Both India and Pakistan are declared and explicit nuclear power, but the world lobby always give undue advantages to India and always ignore Pakistan.
Australia has also followed that footstep and regrettably preferred India for its Uranium.
Labour Party yesterday voted to overturn [...]



Memogate Ka Mamoon

By Dr. Hassan Isfahani • Dec 5th, 2011 • Category: Politics

United States has come to the rescue of the Zardari regime by killing two dozens of Pakistani soldiers on the Western border. With this attack and the ostentatious defiance of PPP towards US, the attention has been diverted to the NATO attack, and things have cooled down on memo of Haqqani.
The loser in both cases [...]

By Dr. Hassan Isfahani • Nov 28th, 2011 • Category: Politics

Yes, Turkey and United Arab Emirates, our beloved and long lasting Muslim brethren are also part and parcel of the NATO and ISAF forces in the Afghanistan. The same forces which attacked Pakistani post and killed more than 30 soliders.
Would UAE and Turkey directly apologize from us? Would they tell us and world and especially [...]



Chuplee Kebab of Constitution

By Dr. Hassan Isfahani • Nov 26th, 2011 • Category: Politics, Worth A Second Look

I was recalling today the famous sentence uttered by former hung Prime Minister who also was involved in the breaking of Pakistan with army Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. He said,” Aaeen koi chuplee kebab hai jo log khaen gay?” (Is Constitution a  minced meat kebab which people would eat?)
Bhutto was an elected Prime Minister but he [...]



PTI - PML-N Battle Benefits Establishment

By Dr. Hassan Isfahani • Nov 25th, 2011 • Category: Politics

The flowing row of Imran Khan has PML-N on run. They are frantically holding public meetings, cancelling rallies, holding press conferences, firing petitions, and throwing allegations in the talkshows. Imran Khan’s supporters are in another world and for them PML-N has gone, vanished in the thin air.
PML-N’s advisors don’t really have a strategy to contain [...]



Haqqani is More Important to America Than Mansoor Ijaz

By Dr. Hassan Isfahani • Nov 23rd, 2011 • Category: Politics

Thanks to the media, the people have now started to understand the events as they get folded and they don’t have to wait for years to reach to the bottom of the truth in many cases. Of course all that depends upon the fair coverage and honest analysis of the events, too.
The whole memogate episode [...]



Memo Mummy Returns

By Dr. Hassan Isfahani • Nov 19th, 2011 • Category: Politics, Worth A Second Look

I find no option but to denounce the superpower over their nefarious role in this whole episode. The America has dressed down the democratic government of Pakistan and has exposed the feeble efforts of civilian representatives to gain power over the generals.
This is not to say that the democratic government is so grand and clean [...]



Should Pakistan Support Iran Against America?

By Dr. Hassan Isfahani • Nov 15th, 2011 • Category: Politics, Worth A Second Look

After twisting the muscles of Pakistan, CIA has now started tightening the screws of Iran. Iran’s nuclear aspirations and its leadership’s candid criticism of US and its allies has angered the US a lot and it seems that now they intend to do more than just imposing more restrictions over the Iran.
Actually the thing is [...]



Why Bangladesh Stopped Pakistan from WTO?

By Dr. Hassan Isfahani • Nov 9th, 2011 • Category: Politics

It was a huge shock for many in Pakistan, especially those who are related to the trade, commerce and industry when Bangladesh blocked the way that pave Pakistan to get trade concession offered by the European Union as former voted against the country in World Trade Organisation (WTO).
India voted in the favor of [...]



Euroasian Union and Pakistan

By Dr. Hassan Isfahani • Nov 8th, 2011 • Category: Politics, Worth A Second Look

While we are at it, why not just become little bit more innovative and flexible and forge new ties with other regional powers, and Russia comes first there. Yes we fought a war in Afghanistan, but that was it, and we have got to move forward, and establish a trust relationship there too.
Our some people [...]
