Curfew in Islamabad; Lal Masjid Operation Imminent

Posted on July 3, 2007 by Thanos

lal-masjid-jaimsh-e-mohammed.jpgPakistan’s government has declared a curfew in residential areas around Islamabad’s Lal Masjid (red mosque) and that it will be launching an operation against the terrorists [Editor: most press agencies are calling them “militant students”, but they are dyed-in-the-wool terrorists  supporting extreme shariat, use of force, terror, and coercion against civilians. Suicide bombers, white headbands, Kalashnikovs, shooting police, kidnapping, burning shops… they are terrorists.]

For God’s Sake

Posted on July 3, 2007 by Thanos

“Kuda Kay Liye” is a film that depicts the escalation of conflict, both philosophical and physical, between moderate Muslims and the extremists in Pakistan. Since the public sentiment is heartily against the extremists, they must try by force and coercion to stop this from being seen in Pakistan. This will not be a pro-Islamist/Jihadi film — it’s obvious from some of the trailers, but you get this one because I like the music:

The leader of the proto-Taliban mosque that is burning buildings and shooting police in Islamabad, Maulana Ghazi, has called for the film to be censored. This echoes his attempt to stop the magazine Octane, and the Mosque’s attempts to control all that Pakistanis see, hear, think, and feel. Who knows, perhaps this film was the spark that set the conflagration off? 

From Times of India:

“Kuda Kay Liye” (For God’s sake) is produced by Pakistani film producer Shoaib Mansoor. Its cast includes Lollywood’s top actor Shan and Shah. The film depicts intensification of conflict between fundamentalists and liberal Muslims in the post 9/11 scenario. The film is promoted by local TV channel Geo as part of its efforts to “revive cinema in Pakistan”, which is facing prospects of “collapse” due to lack of financial support and dwindling viewership leading to closure of theatres all over the country.

If the ummahzons and cane-wielding crows in Jamia Hafsa want to counter the film nobody is stopping them from producing their own.

MSM Swallows and Regurgitates Jihadi Swill – again

Posted on July 3, 2007 by Thanos

Pajamas Media has  a good piece on the most recent incident of the MSM printing Al Qaeda agitprop regarding decapitated bodies — if they need stories about decapitated bodies, they should work with a real reporter like Michael Yon. Modern reporters through a combination of laziness, political ideology, and sometimes cash are all too willing to sell the truth to the devil.

Taliban Schisms Widen

Posted on July 2, 2007 by Thanos

daddullah-damned-2.jpgzawahiri-dajjal.jpgChristian Science Monitor and the Pakistan Daily times have articles on the widening schisms in the Taliban which we’ve tracked here since last August. The splits are for a variety of reasons, they are not purely sectarian as some have painted.

Some of the splits devolve to philosophy and method: concerns that the Ummah has noticed that the Taliban and Al Qaeda are killing more muslims than the Nato forces. Some are purely regional — dog eat dog struggles for regions and smuggling routes. Others involve tribal differences, and some truly are sectarian and racial.

It really boils down to this: When nobody is in control, then everybody wants to be in control and will use any excuse to assume power. All Jihadis better watch their own backs, because your “brothers” aren’t guarding them anymore; instead they are eyeing that spot between your shoulderblades.

Al Qaida; True Evil

Posted on July 2, 2007 by Thanos

zawahiri-dajjal.jpgMichael Yon has a report on the evil of Al Qaida in Iraq, and in the past I’ve pointed out their evil elsewhere. Anyone still following this mad dajjal and  his demons is truly beyond all hope, and must be killed. From the article:

Soldiers from 5th IA said al Qaeda had cut the heads off the children. Had al Qaeda murdered the children in front of their parents? Maybe it had been the other way around: maybe they had murdered the parents in front of the children. Maybe they had forced the father to dig the graves of his children.

 Do not follow this link if you you don’t have the stomach to face true evil, you’ve been warned: Bless the Beasts and the Children.
