Update: Zardari restored the 1973 constitution. Has he redeemed himself? Partially. To fully redeem himself, he must liquidate his assets and return the funds to the national treasury. If he does this, he can move to the reformistani winners section!

Tunku, an “educator”, writes really pathetic articles on lightweight online mags.
“Going Muslim” (generalizes killing as ordinary muslim behavior), “Obama must stop neglecting India” (please hate pak), “Flogistan” (More Pak diatribes as if Pak needs more negative publicity), “Harry called Pakistanis a derrogatory word, Ha Ha” (More petty stuff), “Five Reasons Why India Can’t ‘Do A Gaza’ On Pakistan” (A sick fantasy about attacking killing like Israel/Gaza), “Obama the slumdog president”, “Obama A to Z” for example O is for Osama get it? I don’t either. “Why India loves facebook” ( a really werid self-adulation of some sort. America’s main battle has moved to Pakistan. (Yippy!!! gets all giddy and excited), “Tibet Activists” (Gotta get some anti-china in there now), “Profiling Pakistanis - good idea”, “Get TOUGH WITH PAKISTAN”, “Obama’s forgotten friends” (India good. Pakistan bad).

Farooq Abdullah as described by Yousuf of Srinagar, Kashmir: (I could not top this description)
The only reason this gasbag is not in the #1 slot is that I haven’t read any more ramblings from him lately about pre-emptive airstrikes by his “Bharat Mata” against Kashmiri refugee camps in AJK. This unforgivable douche bag is perhaps personally responsible for thousands of deaths in Kashmir. He can singularly be considered the most corrupt politician ever to have stepped on the soil of Kashmir. I don’t need to elaborate any further because there is not a Kashmiri who doesn’t know about the treachery of this wretch.
Farooq Abdullah’s chances of redemption: He can redeem himself by asking for forgiveness, divulging the truth about his backroom deals with Indian intelligentsia about violently crushing the peaceful freedom struggle in Kashmir, rigging the 80′s election to defeat the MUF, and returning the crores upon crores of rupees he has stolen from Kashmir. Further, he should move to his “Bharat Mata” and never return again. Farooq Abdullah’s fate after Kashmir becomes independent: He will most likely be the first to stand trial for treason. He will also be tried for war crimes for the thousands who died while he was Chief Minister.

At reformistani, we like moderation. But we don’t like opportunists married to narcissist bigots.
Nadira Alvi, a twice divorced Pakistani, that latched to a nasty, albeit brilliant writer. Her greatest accomplishment was to throw herself at Naipaul who has following to say about her nationality and religion:
Naipaul has been criticised for dwelling on some negative aspects of Islam in his works, such as nihilism among fundamentalists.[citation needed] Naipaul’s support for Hindutva has also been controversial. He has been quoted describing the destruction of the Babri Mosque as a “creative passion”, and the invasion of Babur in the 16th century as a “mortal wound.”[citation needed] He views Vijayanagar, which fell in 1565, as the last bastion of native Hindu civilisation.[citation needed] He remains a somewhat reviled figure in Pakistan, which he bitingly condemned in Among the Believers.[citation needed]
He made a fool of himself over Ayodhya, telling an interviewer, “Pulling down the first Mughal emperor’s tomb is a marvelous idea. I think in years to come it will be seen as a great moment and it will probably become a public holiday .”
Do you really need to contradict a man who thinks that the Babri Masjid was Babar’s tomb? When French asks him how he feels about the hundreds who died in the riots that followed the demolition, Naipaul is evasive: “I didn’t kill them myself… 1992 was a very bad year. That was the year when I could barely walk. I had surgery on my spine…” Ah yes, the great man has his priorities all worked out.
ntitled Sir Vidia’s Shadow, that savagely exposed Naipaul as a racist who referred to Arabs as ‘Mr Woggy’ and strode through Africa in a safari suit dismissing its people as ‘bow and arrow men’.
Theroux’s biography attacked his former guru for racism, arrogance, misogyny, cruel treatment of insignificant people such as book tour escorts and secretaries.
He told Theroux loftily: ‘The melancholy thing about the world is that it is full of stupid people; and the world is run for the benefit of the stupid and common.’

If a woman does not comply in having sexual relations with her husband, then the husband can refuse to feed her. “Yes, I said that,” Mohseni said looking me in the eye.How obssessed with sex do you have to be to come up a ‘religious’ edict such as this one? These are the people leading the illiterate and educated alike.Why can’t our bearded ‘elder statesmen’ worry about poverty, the economy, education, health?What is Mr. Mohseni’s next great revelation? The benefits of Viagra?
M.J. Akbar
British press are having a field day at the expense of The Asian Age editor MJ Akbar. In the latest sex scandal to rock London, the dailies reported that Akbar fathered the one month old baby boy, Lorcan, second child of Kimberley Fortier Quinn, 44, publisher of The Spectator magazine. She is famously known as the ex-lover of David Blunkett, who had to resign last December as Britain’s home secretary after an inquiry into how Quinn’s Filipina nanny got a visa.
During the three year affair, Blunkett fathered Quinn’s firstborn William. The affair ended badly and she reconciled with her husband Stephen Quinn, 60, who works for Vogue magazine. He has never claimed to be the “biological” father of either child. His only interest, he has repeatedly stressed, is to protect his wife and his family.
A dna test confirmed that Blunkett was not the biological father of Lorcan. Blunkett is currently suing Quinn for visitation rights to William. The Quinns blame Blunkett for having leaked the paternity report. Britian’s general elections are in May this year.
Akbar, 54, vehemently denies the alleged paternity. He admits to being “friends” with Quinn but denies they had any “improper association”.
“Of course I know her,” he is reported to have said. “We have a professional relationship as I publish Spectator pieces in my newspaper. But if you are implying anything else that’s not true.”
To drive home the point, he insisted that they had not even shared…‘‘a Bill Clinton moment”.
Akbar’s wife Mallika was said to be “more amused than angry” when contacted by The Mail on Sunday.
“I’ve only just heard about it,” she told the paper, laughing. “It’s amazing. It’s not that he’s not capable of doing such a thing, but for once I don’t think it’s true.” She also said: “I met Kimberly in London. She was very friendly and very sweet. If it were true, I would be very disappointed, but I don’t think it is.”
Akbar claims that he was not in London in May last year, when the baby was conceived. He claimed to be busy with the general elections (in India) during that time. Outraged over what he termed as “malicious” he has slapped legal notices on them seeking substantial damages, apology and retraction.
This could very well be tantamount to waving a red flag under nose of the British tabloid press, which will go to great lengths to expose any skeleton that might be rattling in Akbar’s past, in a bid to prove their story.
Pakistani response to dirtball: MJ Akbar
Let me say that I was profoundly disappointed over the manner in which the writer has hurled innuendoes against the leadership in Pakistan and their illustrious primogenitors. The choice of words and phrases against respectable leaders of Pakistan revered by millions of Pakistanis is certainly not expected of a journalist of M.J. Akbar’s class. While expressing his otherwise well-known prejudice against Pakistan, the writer has scornfully ignored all the mannerism of respectable journalism that your esteemed daily is known for. No wonder Indian media and its pundits derive their lifeblood from the anti-Pakistan venom, for it sells at high profits among their folk.
You would agree that the longstanding issues that have bedeviled relations between Pakistan and India remain unresolved partly because of the Indian government’s intransigence and partly due to its highly biased and violent media, which feed hatred. The article under reference is a case in point.
In the article, the writer has, out of his pathologically compulsive bias, reveled in commonplace and oft-repeated allegations against Pakistan’s security agencies. In his writhing pangs of jingoism, he has overlooked the role the demonic Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), India’s foreign intelligence agency, plays in neighboring countries. Having mastered in skills of destabilization and subversion, it has dexterously overthrown governments in the region, carried out murderous terror acts and fed violence. The role of the security agencies of Pakistan in their fight against terrorism, loss of thousands of precious lives of its soldiers and civilians and hindered economic progress worth billions of dollars remains elusive to an eye that is used to seeing darkness only. People in India’s neighborhood live in a state of morbid fear owing to its hegemonic designs to realize the centuries-old dream of Maha Bharat (Greater India). Pakistan remains the most hapless victim of Indian RAW’s terrorist designs, for it refuses to truckle to Indian browbeating and arm-twisting. I’m afraid they, including the writer, will have to wait a few thousand years more.
It is too convenient for Indian government and a large section of its journalists to point fingers toward Pakistan to the extent of ludicrousness for anything and everything wrong that happens to or in India. It would be too naive to dupe international community into believing that all that is happening in Indian-occupied Kashmir and more than 25 of its states clamoring for justice from the most ethnically biased government in New Delhi is of Pakistan’s making.
The unrelenting persecution of Muslims living in India who are compelled to live lives worse than those of third-grade citizens has remained elusive to the Indian governments and the kind of intellectuals that we have referred to above. Who in India has forgotten the pogrom in Gujarat under the vigilant eyes of its Chief Minister Narendra Modi and destruction of the Babri Masjid at the hands of Hindu maniacs?
When Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi advised India to put its own house in order and search for the causes of terrorism in various Indian states, he was not entirely wrong. Would M.J. Akbar hold Pakistan responsible for the persecution of Dalits and their resultant wrath against supercilious Brahmins?
If Indian people and government are genuinely serious about peaceful coexistence with Pakistan and other small neighbors, they must extend a helping hand in fighting the common menaces like terrorism instead of trading in acrimonies. This has been an exercise in futility.
In the end let me state that the article has deeply hurt the Pakistan community, one of the largest in Saudi Arabia which is engaged in a constructive manner for the development and progress of both Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.
