It is so ironic that Muslims today seems to forget that the first word that came from Allah through the archangel Gabriel was “ Iqra’ or read” and from the numbers of books authored or published within the Arab and Muslim world, “read” is the last thing Muslims do, with more bullets than books. Rich homes have more arts than libraries and books.

The Taliban’s (Pakistan Chapter) has lived up to the tagline of unpredictable from the battlefield to the negotiation table. Surrounded by smoke screen, the GOP finally was able to convince all stakeholders that peace shall be given the first slot through negotiations with TTP.

The stalemate stretching over the uncertain future for warzone Afghanistan has markedly matured in the past few months, credited to American realization (though with limitation) that inclusion of Taliban in accepted norms into power will guarantee a lasting solution.

President Obama, you're not attacking Syria because of an alleged and unproven Chemical attack, You're doing so because ISRAEL demands it of you, and once you destroy Syria, Israel will want more blood, next it will be Iran.

Jack Heart takes us on a magical mystery tour of the history of the Pashtuns, the tribe of the Taliban

It’s extremely ironic for the US State Department to be issuing travel alerts for US citizens in the Middle East and North Africa the same week we learn that the Pentagon is contracting with Al Qaeda and Taliban supporters to carry out Afghan reconstruction projects.

Malala: poster-girl for genocide.

Israel’s survival and security are always guaranteed by a very strong “offensive” army, unconditional military, economic and political support from the United States and Europe and more important from the presence of weak, corrupt, dictatorial Arab regimes and police states surrounding Israel.

As if the war on Islam and Muslims declared by certain evil forces within the US and international Zionism is not enough, the so-called “ Takfiri/Jihadist” terrorists have also declared war on Islam and Muslims.

The Pakistani Taliban is publicly denying any part in the Boston bombing

It will be premature to coin “Pakistan Spring”, but it has all the potential not to be much different. Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan is under siege. Hold on, it isn’t the Indians from across the fence or the war loving Taliban.

- Afghanistan is an ideal springboard and battleground for the spread of Saudi Sunni Wahhabism and Iranian Shiite fundamentalism throughout Central Asia

The cowardly and brutal attack last week on the 14-year-old girl Malala Yousafzai by the Islamic terrorist group the Taliban shows the truth to this statement by the American founder and Deist Thomas Paine, "Belief in a cruel god makes a cruel man."

The policy brief outlines a solution for resolving the situation in Afghanistan by exposing how Pakistan has systemically weakened Afghanistan's sacred tribal structure via its Taliban proxy.

Today, Secretary of State Clinton added the “Haqqani Networks” to the list of terror organizations though Americans continue to negotiate with the Haqqani’s. America is nothing but consistent at being inconsistent. America plans on continuing talks with Irbrahim and Jaluddin Haqqani despite the “branding” as terrorists. Would a sane person attend a meeting with a drone overhead?

Everyone in the world knows America’s invasion of Iran was a lie, an oil raid, from day one.

The HBO series, Newsroom with Jeff Daniels, a show demonstrating not just the failure of American news reporting but worldwide cowardice and corruption, this week has debunked the American opposition party. Most serious is the timing, in the midst of the Republican Convention

Every country has its own peculiarities, but in international affairs, Pakistan stands out as the one and only state that, despite the perennial turmoil in internal affairs and lack of powerful Beltway lobby, has excelled splendidly in exploiting US ‘smart power’ ambitions . When the US betrayed their staunchest ally, the Shah of Iran, General Zia ul-Haq – unlike Noriega, Hussein, Qaddafi, and Mubarak et al – was the first to conclude that, to count on succor from the White House when push comes to shove, would be a suicidal folly.

Too bad the destruction of Islamic land marks in Timbuktu by the criminal thugs called “Ansar El-Islam/Supporters of Islam” did not generate or illicit the strong condemnations denunciations and material actions it deserves from the religious leaders of Al-Azhar, Mecca, Qom and Najaf. At best the condemnation was muted if not apologetic.

It is truly a matter of controversy as it appears that non-Taliban Afghan poets are presented as Taliban.

Among the seven agreements made by Gen Musharraf with Washington in September 2001, free passage of NATO containers from Karachi Port to Afghanistan via Torkham and Chaman and also air supplies were included.

- The world knows that the Taliban have no intention of relinquishing its Islamo-fascist mentality.

The U.S. army is telling "lies" about a recent shooting in Afghanistan which left 17 civilians -- mostly children and women -- dead, says Gordon Duff, senior editor of VT.

For more than a thousand years the Afghan nation, and Pashtun tribes in particular, have resisted all foreign efforts of domination.

Two US Marines in abuse video identified. No Heroes Here! Just Shameless and Pathetic Vulgarity

We have receiving a youtube video of people dressed as Marines, the new version, tons of expensive protective gear, urinating on enemy dead. As one who did this work under unimaginably worse circumstnaces, starving, no body armour and outnumbered, against an enemy our new boys might find a bit daunting, I will give the talk that every real Marine gives young Marines.

Taliban and "peace mission" -- these words do not fit together in the minds of Afghans who know the Taliban's history.

Europe needs liberating a lot more than Afghanistan ever did.

“Saddam never had any weapons of mass destruction but nevertheless, with the American invasion of Iraq, the Iraqis were destined to experience what it really meant to be bombarded with such weapons.”

Civil war in Afghanistan is raging since 1976. It saw relative calm and stability during brief spell of Taliban rule, but peace was snatched away by USA and the country was again pushed into the inferno.

Washington rules America, it doesn't govern. In fact, there is increasing evidence that it does neither. Had an alien race taken over and chosen the most cowardly and reprehensible to rule, to exploit and enslave in their name, the end result would likely resemble what we have today.

What is obvious, is, with the US elections round the corner, it is a cotton candy being held out to the people of America, having come into power in the flush of promise to “bring the boys home”. A promise that Obama failed to fulfill. Further, the exorbitant costs of foreign wars at the expense of the Americans has become difficult to justify. A lot of ink has been wasted on cotton candy, I am sure more will!

Till 9/11, Pakistan was a fairly stable and prosperous country but its complexion changed once Gen Musharraf opted to align Pakistan with USA and become its coalition partner.

Pakistan's Taliban on Sunday denied responsibility for twin bomb blasts that ripped through a crowded market in the northwestern city of Peshawar, killing 39 people and injuring dozens.

President Obama is now exploring avenues for a faster withdrawal from Afghanistan. American is flat broke, busted and our allies in Afghanistan have proven, beyond a shadow of a doubt. that they are far worse than our enemies.

News suppression is a way of life in the USA. Our 2007 NIE said the same thing. What is different is that this one is based on deep penetration of Iran, teams on the ground, far more advanced surveillance techniques, in fact, we have spies everywhere in Iran.

The US in pursuit of its strategic and economic objectives in this part of the world arm twisted Gen Musharraf in September 2001 soon after 9/11 and made him do its bidding.

Pakistan-Afghanistan relations have remained frosty ever since Pakistan came into being. King Zahir Shah, Dawood, Taraqi, Hafiz Amin, Dr Najibullah and Babrak Karmal remained friendly to former Soviet Union and India and hostile towards Pakistan owing to self created dispute over Durand Line and Pakhtunistan stunt.
