Month: April 2007

AP is reporting from Kandahar that Mullah Dadullah and 200 Taliban fighters are cornered in Urzugan province, Afghanistan. Apparently they haven’t yet realized that they are heavily infiltrated, and set up a meeting to which the Afghan Army invited themselves. Just from the time of year, my wager is that the leader’s were meeting to divvy up the take from this year’s poppy harvest, which is about done now.

Negotiations look like they are nearing an end with the radical shariat clerics of Jamia Hafsa, and it looks like some middle ground has actually been found. The madrassah and it’s leaders would still be stubborn without the public outcry and demonstrations against them, and the fact that they are losing students now in droves.

Update: One step forward, two back…

From Dawn:

ISLAMABAD, April 22: Lal Masjid clerics on Sunday said contentious issues between them and the government had not been settled, adding that the standoff would continue till the enforcement of Sharia in the country.

“It has been reported wrongly in the media that the issues between the Lal Masjid administration and the government have been settled and the two sides are close to an agreement,” deputy in-charge of the mosque and Jamia Hafsa Maulana Abdul Rashid Ghazi told Dawn.

He said it had also been wrongly attributed to Pakistan Muslim League president Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain that girl students of Jamia Hafsa had agreed to end occupation of the children’s library, provided the seven mosques demolished by the Capital Development Authority were reconstructed. “We did not give any such assurance to Chaudhry Shujaat and, therefore, we will not evacuate the library unless Sharia is enforced in the country,” he said.

Maulana Ghazi said the mosque administration had given two demands to the government – reconstruction of the demolished mosques and enforcement of Sharia. “We want rebuilding of the razed mosques as a goodwill gesture from the government to initiate dialogue on enforcement of Islamic system.”

Please take a stop by Little Green Footballs sometime this weekend, read Charle’s commentary on Sayyid Qutb, one of the fathers of the modern Islamist Terrorism campaign. It’s been going since the fifties, it’s time for you to see and understand the start of it. 

Sayid Qutb was a societal misfit, here and at home, a misogynistic mental eunuch “who could never find a woman pure enough”. Draw your own conclusions.

Like many other unsmiling leftists, he started with “social justice” which led to the nihilism of fixating on minor flaws which usually appear only to the eye of the malcreant mind.

Like the ugly girls at the back corner of the dance hall making catty remarks between themselves about the girls who get asked to dance, so too was Sayid when looking at the strength and beauty of America during his visit. Once started down the death spiral into nihilism there was no stopping until full-anti American, anti-woman, anti-almost everything fundamentalism. Whether you are following Marx or Muhammed, if you adapt a narrow, exclusive, nilhilistic view you always end up at pure evil.
