Update: Sanam Bhutto waiting in the ranks

sanam-bhuttoIn light of the recent success of the Long March movement, which may have been a victory for the people of Pakistan, one person that has truly lost out is Mr. Asif Ali Zardari and along with it has also dashed the hopes and dreams of his party which he hijacked a year or so back. It is now rumored that Sanam Bhutto is feisty and has in no small words lashed out at her brother-in-law in an interview with Benazir Bhutto’s close confidant Daphne Barak. Though the contents of the interview are yet to be made public

Sanam Bhutto is acting as the watchdog of Bilawal, Bakhtawar and Assefa’s interests and is concerned that other members of Zardari family are working to derive benefits.

The News 18th March 2009: Sanam has been very upset with Asif Zardari’s handling of the PPP that is the most precious political legacy of her father Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and her sister Benazir Bhutto. He betrayed her sister’s promises to the nation about restoration of judges, caused political friction to the point that led Pakistan to the brink of civil war and caused historic damage to the popular Pakistan People’s Party to the maximum extent. Reportedly Sanam Bhutto has said, My father, my brothers, my mother all of us suffered and made sacrifices for PPP and Asif Zardari has usurped it.

Though the interview is yet to be made public but it seem this might be the start of the much talked about PPP breakup where the old guard finally sums up the courage to stand up against the usurper who has conveniently occupied the Presidential Palace

Update March 18th 23:00 PST: In a clarification issued by Sanam Bhutto The News carries an update clarifying that Sanam Bhutto, the sister of slain PPP leader Benazir Bhutto, denied reports of any differences in Bhutto family she is claimed to have cordial relations with President Asif Ali Zardari and there was no property dispute between the Bhutto family and the President. “Bhutto family stands by President Zardari to resolve the challenges facing the country,” she added.

    Weakening of Zardari would surely be in the interest of the whole nation. But lets wait and see the actual interview.

    Excuse me,the article is written very cleverly to shift the whole blame of the March on PPP.

    That is not the case.There are two things let us discuss them separately.

    One is:Sanam Bhutto criticising Zardari,well that is their personal matter I do not know if Sanam should have made this criticism public or not.

    Second is even when Benazir was in power her party and policey was totally different from her father ,Bhutto.

    The point is who ever becomes the head they do things in their own way.So I think it is wrong to criticise Zardari that he is handling the matters in different ways and make it a family feud.

    Indeed Zardari should follow the principal rules of the party.

    Running Pakistan is the most difficult Job in the world.Oppertunist,world media,Afghanistan crises,human rights issues and internal political termoils are not easy o grapple with .

    Remmeber Zardari is only in power for past eight months.

    The second issue is as if it was Zardari who pushed people to the roads for MArch.

    No it is Nawaz,his government in Punjab was dismissed and it was not a surprise ,from the very start he knew this will happen ,so Chief Justice issue was so important for him.

    Judiciary had the right to take the decision they did,Nawaz is used to, to not take into account any opposition so he didnot .

    Zardari should be criticised for his own actions,we should not compare him to Benazir.

    Benazir was a successful leader any way through out her rule Nawaz was in power in Punjab but her govrnment was never pulled into crises.

    Nawaz is used to to absolute power.So is Zardari maybe to think that Zardari is demaging the party ,I do not think so.Who ever will replace Benazir will fall short .

    Yes a woman of her stature is ir-replaceable.

    Although she did not do much as well but she did not spoil things as well.

    But Sanam must know if Zradari has to be replaced within PPP I think it is Fatimah Bhutto.She has a political vision and training from Benazir.It is about time.Young people should come forward.

    Please stop clonning I so do not like to see HAmza and Hussain Nawaz Daddies are working hard for the sons though.

    Fatimah deserves it because of her personality,and ideas.She is capable.

    Hum tou dobain hain SANAM tumhain bhee lai dubain gai is not a good policey.

    "Fatimah deserves it because of her personality,and ideas.She is capable."

    Her personality? What to do with her personality, charm and charisma?

    What you said reminds me of the US

    Obama's political campaign was such a success that it won the year's best marketing campaign of the US beating even the Apple company.

    The 'interview' is fake. The News should fire the reporter who's tried to make a name for himself by appealing to the populist sentiment instead of sticking to the ethics of journalism. Poor, poor journalism.

    This blog has become a false rumor factory since the past one year. Why do you even bother posting about issues yet to mature. First the speculation about Gilani-Zardari friction, then the notification will not be issued thing, and now this.

    GEO TV:

    KARACHI: Sanam Bhutto has denied existence of differences in Bhutto family. According to sources, Shaheed Benazir’s sister Sanam Bhutto, denying the reports of conflicts in Bhutto family, said on Wednesday, “I enjoy good relations with President Asif Ali Zardari.”

    You misunderstood,I do not think she is charming or have charisma (Benazir had it)

    Fatima is different she understands human rights,women struggle,her father was ambushed on the road ,no one else knows more about the law and order and injustice pervailing in Pakistan than herself,because just like us she is a victim.

    Her mother was human rights activist.Fatima writes poetry and has a political thought ,this is what I meant by personality.

    I have not considerd her because she is a grand daughter of Bhutto but because she is an intelligent ,educated woman and has exposure to international politics.

    Her personality is very calm and mature.

    Request…written with caution,appology if anybody thinks I am racist ,I am not just trying to share my thoughts.

    —————————————

    I feel disturbed at Muhajir ,MQM , Sindhi and Punjabi sentiment.

    Regarding Muhajirs :I respect these people,they are Ahla-e-Zuban ,they carry whole tradition with them,I appreciate their thought process and sense of humour.Sharp,intelligent and urban,they are carriers of our civilisation .

    Yes!there was an injustice when people migrated to Pakistan.

    Little was done for them,but I born in seventies cannot say how the situation was than but I believe whole of Pakistan was in pretty bad shape.

    None the less these people worked hard and they were treated with prejudice mainly because of quota system.

    But two presidents of Pakistan Musharraf and Zia were Migrants.

    They are working at very prestegious positions like civil services,Judiciary and are eminent scholars,contributed to literature and are part of very prestigeous business community.

    —-

    MQM :To be honest I do not have guts to write about what happened ,but it went horribly wrong.The way people were murdered and to me they were civilians,why things were let so much out of control in the first place that such a thing happened.It is a black spot of history.(I said I do not have guts ,I do fear for backlash and the consequences also I do not understand the issues completely so I feel I am not suitable to write on it)

    Leaving that behind I see a party in MQM,representing middle class ,standing up for equal rights and bringing in new people.

    This party has a real potential,it is the only party with whom the working or midlle class can relate to.

    If and only if they shun the Sindhi and Punjabi slogan.It should be all inclusive party.I have huge hopes if its supporters bring in the change within themselves of embracing all.

    They have a huge struggle behind them ,MQM are totally different from rest of Pakistan ,they have a thought process and values different from the rest.Punjab,Sindh,Baluchistan and NWFP have their roots in the culture,and they very stubornly are not letting go of it.At the same time there are generations of people who are born in the cities and have no sub-urban roots.

    I think MQM can connect to these people a whole new middle class will come into Pakistan.

    It is true Nawaz Shrief is not valued in Punjab because he is Punjabi.Actually he is not.He is Kashmiri.

    The support he gets from Punjab is not because he is from Punjab,he is actually Lahoree and LAhoree people cherish their leaders.

    It is so true that Benazir and Bhutto started their political movement from Lahore,because they love their leaders.lahore never thinks in a prejudice Manner .I never met an intellectual who supported Nawaz.

    In fact the whole vote bank in Lahore is of PPP.Benazir and Bhutto had a current and vibes which people of Lahore love.

    Fifty years ago Altaf Bhai became a leader,trials ,tribulations and sacrifice,they suffered,torture ,abuse but same is levelled against them.

    MQM has to shun away its old image and re-create itself.Poor people of Pakistan are same everywhere ,their sufference is same.

    Again Benazir and Bhutto were Sindhi,I think people of Punjab are very sharp in recognising a leader once they do their affiliation is strong.They love public appeal people .

    Nawaz may have become no1 through Punjab seat but no ,Lahoree and punjab do not vote him for this reason.

    Second you…what u did not mentioned is Fatima can bring people from all four provinces together. Using Bhutto name and her intellect. Break in PPP is righting on the wall, this time clean people will join Fatimah, but She wont be powerful as Benazir. All street smart and Q mindset will join Zardari. That means Zardari will become something like Jatoi or Khar. PPP will go to other group. Establishment has been promoting Fatimah for long time, Aitazaz, Naheed and Amin Fahim would be with him.

    But fact is Zardari with his street thug mindset is not a right choice for a nation which is almost 50 years ahead of his best imagination.

    We have to understand what is the reason of this article, repeated articles, blogs, sms and news against Zardari and PPP.

    The only reason is the PUNJAB and its establishment wants to throw the PPP regime and Zardari from the corridors of power, All this propaganda is again and again originated from Punjab and all the Punjabi journalists heavily paid by invisible forces are involve in generating these news.

    Can anyone every try to think how Ansar Abbasi got secret reports ?

    He is on payroll of the biggest invisible force of this country, the Journalists sitting on TV channels are all Punjabies all the Anchors are punjabies and they have only one Agenda, Throw PPP government to Establish Pro Pujab Government.

    This was the reason behind Lawyers movement and this will not stop, it will continue till PPP government has been thrown out by Punjab.

    As BB is not alive the chances of getting into Power by PPP are quite low so Punjab is in the hurry to over throw PPP government and get into the power.

    Most of the critics of PPP are from Punjab as Nawaz Sharif proved once again inthe Lawyers movement that he is the Punjabi Nationalist Leader not Federal as he didn't went outside Punjab to address people or to gather support for long march.

    The other and the biggest reason of this game is Provincial Autonomy Bill, When parties will sit on the issue of eliminating 17th Amendment, This issue will be raised by PPP MQM and parties from Smaller Provinces, but Punjab can't afford that as Punjab is feeding itself on the lives and blood of smaller provinces.

    as far as Sanam Bhutto Interviews she denies it.

    On Jung Group ,because I am from Lahore ,I have not come accross journalists who appreciate Nawaz.Trust me when I say Jung group is not pro any one but they do change their editorial lines quickly from a pro to anti.

    Well regarding Jung Group ,Nawaz has tried to block their publishing in the past,like the printing ink was blocked.

    Look how he treated Najam Sethi and Jugno Mohsin they are lahore based journalists.

    The point I am making here is again it is not the matter of Punjab.

    The specific journalists should be served with notice and persecuted not only them the politicians who try to block the transmission .It is about time a code of conduct should be applied to JOURNALISM.

    How would you guage Mr Hasan Nisar [another Punjabi] who praised MQM and recently he was a guest of Mr Altaf Hussain as well.

    Quite a tragedy for Pakistan that Hard Core Fascists of Jamat-e-Islami have nowadays become the Certificate Distributors of Patriotism but JI’s Founder Mawdudi and his JI had opposed Pakistan and Jinnah by tooth and nail.

    Dear Faroqi Sahab

    As per two leading dailies The News International and Daily Dawn and several Private TV Channels of Pakistan that the leaders of Pakistan Muslim League – Q [Shujaat League] are holding meetings with everybody to form government in Punjab. Both Zardari and Sharifs have no shame because when General Musharraf was leading the PML-Q as Chief of the Army Staff both Zardari and Sharifs and their party leaders as well used to declare PML-Q Qatil League (Murderer Party) and Musharraf League respectively.

    One thing these leaders of PPP and PML-Q, conveniently forget that this is not 1947 but 2009 and Information Technology has enabled everybody to get quick facts about the dark past of Pakistan Muslim League – Q.

    A glimpse of PML-Q's detested, destructive and detrimental to National Unity Election Campaign of Feb 2008 General Elections in The News International and Jang Group of Newspapers is as under for the kind perusal of Zardari and Sharifs so that they can ponder a little as to whom they are making political alliance with. PML-Q and its leaders are nothing but Ethnic Bigot and that Election Campaign was headed by General Musharraf.

    Dear Faroqi Sahab,

    I dont know if you and other Ethnic Bigots on this Forum are even aware as to where this Ethnic Hate would lead all of us? If not then read History of Rwanda, Bosnia, and many African Countires and believe me picture you would find will not be very rosy and not even the worse person in Pakistan would like to repeat those Tragedies of Ethnic Riots of 70s, 80s and 90s. This is a very dangerous path and poor and impartial people [from any racial group] would like to suffer as happened in the past. This is a dangerous path and everybody should avoid this in the heat of discussion.

    Sharif’s Punjab By Cyril Almeida

    Friday, 20 Mar, 2009 | 01:18 AM PST

    http://www.dawn.com/wps/wcm/connect/Dawn%20Conten

    First blood has been drawn with the restoration of CJ Iftikhar. The lawyers may not like it, but this was Punjab’s victory. And Zardari’s fault. Imposing governor’s rule in Punjab ensured Nawaz Sharif threw his lot in with the lawyers. Check the record, Sharif was wavering about the sit-in, asking questions of the lawyers, demanding to know more about time frames and objectives. Then came the bolt of lightning, upending his government in Punjab, and out the window went any talk of compromise.

    While there will be few tears shed at seeing the back of Zardari and his government, spare a thought for the country. What comes next is dangerous for the federation. Until now, the PPP’s strength in Punjab meant that whoever else wanted to rule Pakistan had to reach out to the other provinces. But Sharif won’t be bothered by that inconvenience any more. Since his return to Pakistan he’d anyway shown little interest in building his party base in Sindh, Balochistan and the NWFP. Now he may not even bother to go through the motions.

    So Zardari’s disastrous gamble has not just damaged him. It’s thrown Punjab into the arms of its new saviour. When Sharif’s time comes, he will necessarily respond to the province’s demands first and foremost. For anyone who understands the inter-provincial tensions that are always lurking just below the surface, that is truly a scenario from hell.

    Pakistani Taliban are not a reaction to anything.They are organised training of poor orphans taken under the wings by the foreign funding.All Pakistanis are Muslims but generally we are moderate muslims .We cannot allow desendants of Egypt and Saudi outcast to buy lives of our children in a non sense war against West.

    West are sitting in their safe heavens how many Pakistanis have died in this war?Army and civil?

    Why these people do not fight in Ghaza ?Why in Pakistan only?

    Why they do not fight in Iraq?

    we have Pakistan army to fight any army,our people need not to take up arms.

    We do not need Revolution,we need solution to our problems.

    One Point in the defence of Awab!!

    I do not think TEETH MAESTRO is a propoganda blog in any way.

    Awab is quite impartial and I like his choice of posts,they are different and thought provoking.

    He puts a challenge before people,that is why people are often at their worst while responding.

    He makes us come out of our comfort zones.His choice of subject is often provocative but I find it excellent ,it allows one to take a deep breath and cut away from daily politics and think about behind the scene ,which is true politics.

    He deserves a maddle though for covering the event of The March ,I am not supporter of Nawaz and have no time to watch TV but through his post the sentiment of the Lahore Streets was so real ,I did not miss a thing.

    Good Work Awab !!Keep it up.

    If Awab is impartial then where is the interview of Sanam Bhutto denying giving any interview to anyone ??

    @Aamir Mughal

    Racial Hatred will persist till the people of 3 Smaller Provinces feel that they are not Ghulams of Punjab anymore.

    can you answer me why Nawaz and Shahbaz didn't even step out from Punjab for long march ?

    How many people came out in NWFP, BAlochistan and SIndh?

    out of 7 carore people only 1-2 thousands ??

    Is this you call participation from 3 provinces ?

    Don't lie to yourselves, it was JUST PUNJAB show and Punjabies took part in it by naming one or two people you can't call this movement of sindh, NWFP and Balochistans.

    Kindly listen what Nawaz Said today in his news conference.

    Till Yesterday he was saying Judge Bahal Ker do 5 Saal tak Kuch nahi mangain gay.

    Now he is saying till next March we would achieve What we want

    He also said " Mulk ka Halaat nahi badlain gay jab tak Inqilab Nahi aye ga ".

    What he Wants now ??

    They just want to throw PPP gov that is not Punjabi Government and Asif Ali Zardari who is also not Punjabi.

    http://jang.com.pk/jang/mar2009-daily/20-03-2009/

    Nawaz Sharif wants to introduce 14th Amendment in 1998 which gives him powers to amend constitution and he would be asked Ameer Ul Momineen.

    Wake Up people from smaller provinces your long sleep and ignorance will leed to your destruction sooner or later.

    Dear Faroqi Sahab,

    Had Dr Awab not censored my messages of early morning you wouldn't have written your latest entry above. Had Dr Awab not censored the news links which I had provided earlier you would have been very satisfied. By the way why did MQM delegation [Read Ishratul Ibad] met with Shahbaz Sharif before the Long March. Why did MQM join PML-N Government twice i.e. 1990 and then again in 1997. Please dont judge the entire community with the singel yardstick. Regarding Nawaz Sharif political statement of Revolution, I wonder how would you interpret Mr Altaf Hussain of MQM's declaration of Khomeini Type Reolution in Pakistan whereas he is based in London UK. [I can quote Mr Altaf's statement and read that news at the end]

    My earlier censored posts are us under which Awab Sahab had earlier deleted, which I hope he wont this time to ease the Ethnic tension on this thread. This had happened when MQM was very much with PML-Q. Read

    As per two leading dailies The News International and Daily Dawn and several Private TV Channels of Pakistan that the leaders of Pakistan Muslim League – Q [Shujaat League] are holding meetings with everybody to form government in Punjab. Both Zardari and Sharifs have no shame because when General Musharraf was leading the PML-Q as Chief of the Army Staff both Zardari and Sharifs and their party leaders as well used to declare PML-Q Qatil League (Murderer Party) and Musharraf League respectively.

    One thing these leaders of PPP and PML-Q, conveniently forget that this is not 1947 but 2009 and Information Technology has enabled everybody to get quick facts about the dark past of Pakistan Muslim League – Q.

    A glimpse of PML-Q's detested, destructive and detrimental to National Unity Election Campaign of Feb 2008 General Elections in The News International and Jang Group of Newspapers is as under for the kind perusal of Zardari and Sharifs so that they can ponder a little as to whom they are making political alliance with. PML-Q and its leaders are nothing but Ethnic Bigot and that Election Campaign was headed by General Musharraf.

    February 14, 2008 Thursday Safar 06, 1429

    http://www.dawn.com/2008/02/14/ed.htm#1

    As per Daily The News International/Jang Group of Newspapers Pakistan, Tuesday, March 10, 2009, Mr Altaf Hussain [Founder of Muttahida Qaumi Movement] while in an interview to the News International Editor, Mr Shaheen Sehbai, said

    "QUOTE"

    Pakistan needs another French or Iranian revolution. He totally agreed when I mentioned Imam Khomeini, the leader of the Iranian revolution. “We do need a Khomeini,” he said. [1]

    "UNQUOTE"

    Tragedy with Pakistani Political Class is that they never break free themselves from the shackels of Religion in our case Islam. Mawdudi all his life indulged in Dirty Power Politics but in the name of Islam, Bhutto in the end in his Jail Cell asked for Rosary Beads and became Sufi and put that rosary beads around his neck, Benazir Bhutto, Nawaz Sharif, Asif Ali Zardari from time to time needed the support of Dam Jhaar [a kind of Magic Muslim Sufi do] so much so Pervez Musharraf and even that Rascal General Zia needed the help of Sufis for Dam Jhara and not a single Ruler succeeded in getting any benefits. Politics should be free from any kind of Religion. What we have here that Mr Altaf Hussain while sitting in LONDON, UK since more than 10 years having British Passport, giving Pakistanis the glad tiding of the Revolution of that Deviant Bloodsucker [Khoon Asham] Khomeini without realizing that Altaf Hussain has himself recently sacked Aamir Liaquat

    Hussain from MQM for declaring that Salman Rushdie should be killed [I wonder if Altaf Hussain remembers that the Fatwa was issued by Khomeini and Salman Rushdie was British Subject like Mr Altaf Hussain].

    Altaf Hussain and MQM had always stood for Religious Harmony amongst several Sects of Muslims [all are in Pakistan] and both are dead opposed to any kind of Religious Extremism but this recent declaration of Altaf Hussain and MQM [and that too while sitting in cosy and peaceful Great Britain Britain] is beyond everybody's intellect. When Sunni Extremism is not acceptable then please deal the Shia Extremism with the same yardstick. By the way one thing I forget to mention that Syed Khomeini was a close and very dear friend of Syed Mawdudi of Jamat-e-Islami and everybody knows how extremely this Pervert Jamat-e-Islami and MQM love each other.

    Reference.

    1 – Breaking promises will damage Zardari: Altaf By Shaheen Sehbai Tuesday, March 10, 2009 /Musharraf’s decision to sack SC judges was taken without consulting MQM; fears Army intervention; Pakistan needs another French or Iranian revolution. [1]

    Khaled Faroqi,

    If Altaf Hussain had shaked hand with Nawaz Sharif, then you would be singing some other pardoy, again with a blind eye.

    Grow up Khaled, there is no point in sowing the seeds of ethnicity. Asbiat

    BTW, read this…

    http://www.buzzvines.com/altaf-hussain-now-admire

    Summary:

    I could draw few conclusions out of Mr Hussain’s approach in 2002, 2004, and 2005:

    He doesn’t like Benazir Bhutto at all – not even willing to get compared

    He feels that Benazir Bhutto is only a power hungry politician

    He charged Benazir as the founder of Taliban

    He charged Benazir as killer of her own brother and purposely ignorant about killers

    He feels that Benazir, a politician who had done nothing for Sind

    And in 2009, same Mr Hussain is:

    Die-hard lover of Benazir, rallying in her favour

    Delivering 2 hours long speech, attributing her charismatic character

    Fully ready to ignore her “Taliban Founder” character

    Since last few months warning PPP-led provincial govt against resurgence of Taliban in Karachi

    Since your peer sahib is a refugee in England, I'm sure Brits have a NO-COST health coverage, ask Peer Sahib to get his free mental health checkup

    Yes Altaf Hussain shacked hand with Nawaz but he stabbed Altaf Hussian and MQM twice in the back.

    Few days back Nawaz Said " It is better to shake hand with Musharraf rather then Shacking Hand with PML Q."

    Now Nawaz is going to do that.Read my Blog post i wrote months back and the reason also(Note: i wrote it in December 2008)

    http://sirfkarachi.blogspot.com/2008/12/tum-par-h

    As far as talibans are concern they are product of so called Afghan Jehad so i guess you should correct your self rather then posting a post from Nadia Khaan an old Jamati posting with different nicks even males ones.

    As far as ASBIAT is concern who is talking ASBIAT?

    Nawaz and Shahbaz are so ethnic that they didn't step out from PUNJAB, ANP ? Pukhtoon Nationalists ?

    Even Moulana Fazl Ur Rehman was forced to said that " The Movement of lawyers is Punjabi Movement "

    So the people who are deaf and blind and NOT PUNJABIES should wait for some time as soon PPP will be divided in PPP Sindh and Punjab as the Punjabies would become ONE and ditch Zardari becuase he is not Punjabi.

    just wait a little and then you will remember my words.

    =====================

    Dear Faroqi Sahab,

    You pretend that you are an MQM supporter [which you are not] and if you are really an MQM supporter then read again what you have written above and read it attentively.

    Solve this riddle that you are calling people of the Smaller Province to wake up before it's too late. Very well! just tell me why MQM [if you are an MQM Activist] was sleeping when Akbar Bugti was murdered [was Akbar Bugti from Sahiwal] and May I ask why didn't the MQM resign from the Federal and Provincial Cabinets [of Martial Laws].

    Urdu Speaking community is no doubt a highly cultured and educated community but people like you [if you are an Urdu Speaking] are blot on community. This community has the potential to lead whole Pakistan to the path of prosperity and enlightenment provided they free themselves from their Karachi Shell.

    Maulana Fazal ur Rehman aka Maulana Diesel

    The Islamist alliance, for its part, had no disagreements with the other parties on the IMF prescriptions for the economy—there is, after all, a neo liberal reading of the Koran—but campaigned vigorously in defence of Islamic laws and against the US presence in the region. There was hardly a day without a newspaper headline highlighting MMA leader Maulana Fazl ur Rehman’s hostility to the American troops: ‘Fazl Demands Expulsion of US Commandos from Tribal Areas’, ‘West Bent on Initiating Civilizations Clash: Fazl’, ‘Fazl Says Sovereignty Mortgaged to US’, ‘Fazl Demands Halt to US Army Operations’, ‘Fazl Urges US Troops Withdrawal’, ‘MMA Vows to Block Hunt for al-Qaeda’, etc. Much of this was pure bluster, but it proved helpful electorally. In discussions with Musharraf, he declared his willingness to establish a coalition with himself as prime minister. When the General pointed out that his anti-Americanism posed a serious problem, the cleric is reported to have replied: ‘Don’t worry about that now. We’ve worked with the Americans in the past. Make me Prime Minister and I’ll sort everything out.’ …..Read Complete details on

    Just wait you will know what i am writing here is just a one man perception or the whole mohajir community is thinking the same way.

    is this the reason why you are labelling the jamat e islami as islamic pervert?

    is the bitter relation between jamat e islami and nawaz shareef can be called as war between kufr abd islam?
