By Syed Samiullah • Aug 26th, 2011 • Category: Politics

Today Baluchistan is no doubt burning thanks to ill-perceived policies by security establishment over the years.

The current security situation in parts of Baluchistan is not very much different from what those of former East Pakistan in late [...]



Iblees Ka Sajda

The awaited NRO is defeated and buried but unearthed the same old faces who would want to come back for a kill yet sometime again, if we falter. We have been for the last 62 years. The glimmer of hope that each one of us awaited finally came. Reaching there seemed easy but for how [...]



Zardari, Sharif and Co. – The fleece that wouldn’t sell

Yet another feast and this is NOT a feat. The nation wilts and tilts to a position where there is no return. The Army is locked up, beefed up and engaged from where it cannot step back but from whence it has to return victor, no second option. Until then the pawns have to be [...]

The army needs trust

By Arun R. Zaheeruddin • May 26th, 2009 • Category: Politics, Worth A Second Look

I hear people talk about the participation of Indian personnel in the Taliban ranks. Some say Russia is involved. My only question here is: who cares if the Taliban are Indians or Russians or even Japanese? Whoever they are, they are not good people, they are bad. The Pakistani army is the protagonist here, we need to support them.
