Guest Post by Ahmad Nadeem Gehla
I have no experience of dealing with dictators or even their sons. Our generation however witnessed the brutality of former dictator Zia ul Haq against media, civil society, poets, writers and political workers. It has been two decades since former dictator burned in skies and things have changed drastically. Media and information technology has not only made information easily available but also developed a culture of civilized debate. The civil society has reorganized itself and has shown that it can stand firm against dictators during lawyer’s movement.
What has not changed is the mind set of dictator’s sons and their cronies. We are witnessing the retired generals and brigadiers coming to electronic media with revelations and defending their unconstitutional acts. Similarly, the ‘general’s sons’ turned politicians are not behind retired officers. They leave no opportunity to arrogantly defend their much hated fathers terming them martyrs and holy warriors. In a similar effort Ijaz ul Haq, a former parliamentarian and son of a former dictator Zia ul Haq tried to proved ZA Bhutto an executed leader and his own father a holy warrior and ‘Shaheed in an article published in ‘Daily News”.
I sent a letter to Editor of ‘The News” expressing my views, it was published today as under; “This is with reference to Muhammad Ijaz ul Haq’s article “A conspiracy against my father” (Sept 8). General Zia’s son seems to live in the past, otherwise he would not have distorted facts. In a country which has millions of internet users information is just a click away. It is quite hypocritical of him to say that Zulfikar Ali Bhutto was an ‘executed leader’. I wish Mr Haq had courage to realise and acknowledge that the same execution made his father one of the most hated persons of this country. The truth is that General Zia gave this country its Kalashnikov culture and the blood-thirsty Taliban.
The response I received from Mr. Ijaz ul Haq was shocking as one cannot expect such language being used by a man who has been a Member of Parliament for over a decade. It states as under; ” For you he should be hanged twice over for killing prof. Nazir Shaheed and Khawaja Rafiq and people like you are shitting all over and look what NRO prof are doing to our country. Sick people like you are all over. – Ijaz ul Haq. Sent via BlackBerry from Mobilink” mi****@mobilink.blackberry.com
To what level the general’s arrogant sons turned ‘test tube leaders’ can fall is not difficult to judge from his response and language used. Mr. Ijaz ul Haq seems unable to come out of dictator’s mindset and show a little civilized behavior towards critics of his father’s hypocritical dark regime. This is undeniable that the mess we are in as a society is gift of Zia ul Haq. It is also a fact that no other person in Pakistan is hated as much Mr. Ijaz ul Haq’s father. But the former parliamentarian while living in denial is not only to deny facts but feel comfortable to use curses against critics of his traitor father who worked and died as an imperial agent. He not only destroyed the secular and tolerant culture of our society but bread extremism from which Mr. Ijaz ul Haq is also suffering today.
Once an American puppet that killed brutality every sane voice is being portrayed as a ‘holly warrior’ by an obedient son. The business empires built by sons of holy warrior are still unaccounted for and sources never declared. Even if his death was staged by CIA and Mosad as claimed by Ijaz ul Haq, it always happened to all imperial puppets around the world. Mard e Momen Junir has to get out of disillusion and recognize what people think about his hypocrite father. He also needs learns that how much society has transformed as such making speech more free than the standards set by his brutal father. He needs to spend some time with civilized people to learn how to take criticism and respond in a civilized manner. But then if he does so – he won’t be a true son of a hated dictator. It is again for us to realize and accept – the way the sons and cronies of dictators are!

What is the point of this incoherent piece of writing by Mr. Gehla? What he means by "civilized people"? Who are they and can he name anyone if known? How was Zia different from any other ruler in Pakistan?
If bashing fingers on the keyboard makes you a scholar, then we all are.
good question!
"How was Zia different from any other ruler in Pakistan?"
sick of zia bashing.
@Unaiza Fatima..Scholar is not one he mere respond to anyone's point of view without any fact and figure,Don't you live in a Pakistan changed by activities of Taliban created and nurtured by Mr. Zia to prolong his term in the office of president of Pakistan?Don't You see bloodshed around you ,dont't you see investment going out of country?don't you listen to travel advisory by western countries for their citizens not to visit Pakistan?Unluckily there is only one creator for all of this mess,and that is your beloved Mr Zia,Miss Unaiza open your eyes and see around you ,what you will find is legacy of your beloved general.Try to accept harsh realities.
whenever i open my eyes and see around i see the legacy of your beloved general(pervez musharraf)……
and what is the legacy???
liberal asses braying and kicking passersby..
Mr "Dr" Jawwad…although not looking an educated citizen if one sees his launguage,any way,,folks ,have you seen any appraisal of Mr general Parvez Musharraf in my Blog?ni na,,pata ni yeh doctor sab kay dil ka chr hai..ya kuch aur,any way enjoy Mr. Doctor
99.99% of the dictators are of SAME DNA (MANUFACTURING DESIGN)
As i keep saying everywhere :
"
We are slaves of our rulers and they are slaves of the American, british, saudi wishes. We got the land liberated from GORA saheb in 47 and now its time to liberate minds from their BROWN AGENTs
These agents, namely our GENERALs,grade 17-22 Bureaucracy, feudals in interior pakistan, politicians (PPP PMLnq MQM ANP , MMA etc.)
are all thugs, terrorists and brain washing canerious pillars of this system and we need to uproot them and throw them into Arabian SEA.
And the first step is to spread the AWARENESS and the admission that we are slaves…………… if we need freedom. Then to start with reasons of slavery and their culprits and then a plan to undo the "WRONG DOING"
"
People like IJAZ ul haq are a beneficiary (and product too) of this FEUDAL system. Talk about the BRAIN behind the DESIGN and not the TOOLS
Asad
I am not favouring any ruler and I am bitterly against taliban and mullah phenomenon too. The fact is that we are suffering from the effects of the negative policies of every ruler in Pakistan. It was Zia who was instrumental in withdrawal of USSR from Afghanistan and the migrants from accross the border with drugs and weapons, yet it was the democratic governments of BB and Nawaz who supported and nurtured taliban. So why blame only Zia.
And only facts and figures can be responded with the same and there are none in this incoherent piece of literature.
@Unaiza Fatima ….Miss Unazia, i agree with your comments,its based upon reality,appreciated.
Pakistan will never feel the absence of Ziaists..you can see them everywhere..in blogs,at markets..especially in the mosques…
lay bhai aik aur aagay!!
aik dhoondnay gaey to pata chala kay hazaron ki tadad men pakis, americans kay tattay uthanay kay liyay tarhap rahay hen….
looks like Dr Jawwad is a hairy Ziaist ball-licker who cant get enough of the hairy mullahs..Dr Jawwad you need to be in a Madrassah…stop browsing the internet…and if you are…then please have the balls and the sense to reply in a civilized manner…looks like you dont have any of those…btw..it was your very own Marde-Momin who taught all the Pakistanis how to lick America's ass…
@ So Called Doctor,really annoying
better be hairy Ziaist ball-licker than yanki asslicker.
on one hand you do some blow jobs for your american masters and on the other hand you wanna be a respectable citizen…
arey salo! weight uthao ,discks uthao,dimples uthao yeh tattay kiyoon uthatay ho?
americans kay tattay utha kar mr.pakistan banna chahtay ho?
hen ji????
Awab where are you????? Give this doctor some diazepam…good amount please!
As i said dr jawwad…you should be in a madrassah in South Waziristan..shaving all the Fuzllullahs and the Baitullahs balls..you are the wrong person at the wrong place…and your argument is senseless..anyone who dislikes Zia is not an American ball-licker..he is probably a non-brainwashed Pakistani who is sick and tired of listening to people like you blaming Americans for all our problems…and looks to me like Gen Zia used to call you whenever he felt constipated…to take his shit out with your hands that is why your heart and mind are trapped inside Zia's shithole…it must feel dirty there…so you just keep on trying to validate and sympathise with all the shit that Zia handed to you…And youve got me totally wrong..no one here is defending America..i am bashing Gen Zia..for he is the one who is responsible all the dr jawwads in Pakistan…and as well as the Fuzllulahs and Baitullahs…Zia is dead…but he has left behind a long trail of shitheads for us Pakistanis to deal with…you being one of them.
Shame on you cheemus
My apologies lady…everything was intended for dr jawwad alone…i totally forgot there was a lady following the comments..sorry bout that
see unaiza baji!!!
how dirty and filthy his thinking is….
lagata hay peechay say bhangi hay…
besharam dhoti kaheen ka.
"i totally forgot there was a lady following the comments..sorry bout that"
abey ja salay…bhangiyon men kahan auraton ka aehtaram hota hay…shareef banta hay jharhoo ki aulad
the last thing i need is a Ziaist telling me how to respect women…this is not a "Juggat Baazi" blog mr jawwad…or shall i say Daactar jawwad…if you have some valid points…then come up with them and defend Zia..people dont want to read your teenage verbal abuse crap..and it doesnt make a difference if you call me a bhangi or whatever.
Arey yaar … jawad ul haq …. Aap ko samajh na chahiya hai kay zia nay america kay chukay thay aur amreeka nay usko chuk dia. ub apnay abu Mr.Haq marhoom kay liye ro mut, masjid jao … nafal padoo.
Your pointless criticism has spoiled the entire blog. Grow some thing down there and up there … because u ll really need those to take a reality check . Zia s happening, led to Musharraf. And it was Gen Zia and Gen Akhtar who masterminded the Talibans for their own benefits. American interference emerged ever since.
Hope you get your fact straights.
Cheerss
The above post was for Dr Jawad, All other audience is requested to censor it in their minds. You ve been warned.

I wanna say that Shame on our govt since Ayub to Zardari…A2Z are A$$-wholes.
They are serving their masters malignant agenda no matter they lost their brother, sister, father, mother, wife or anyone else but they made a pact in turn to gain material wealth.
All famine are orchestrated by the US/EUK under supervision of our govt who are giving them sugar, wheat and everything related to food to US.Nato army from Karachi Port. MQM is their largest shareholders in it and this is what creating famine.
The election legitimize an illegitimates thru NRO backed by US/EUK in order to make us accomplices to govt who are deeply corrupt and immoral elite. Z is there becuz US/EUK wanna make us more poor and wanna hold their strings on sub-continent and its adjacent areas each and every issue…U.S/U.ASS sounds similar..say so
Whoever is with them is a traitor, impostor, debaucher, perverse and as well as A$$-whole like A2Z
I've no shame and hesitation to say that Pols.pk whoever they are, are gelded and debased and serving the Neo Feudal Imperialism of US/EUK.
Democracy and Dictatorship both are rUSe in order to take complete control of each and every aspect of our lives and make us accomplices to the system which is sordid and insane system making us nothing but halluci-Nations.
Democracy and Dictatorship both are rUSe.

"All famine are orchestrated by the US/EUK under supervision of our govt who are giving them sugar, wheat and everything related to food to US.Nato army from Karachi Port. MQM is their largest shareholders in it and this is what creating famine."
Your perceived route map:
Sugar and Wheat produced in Punjab —> Loaded and cargoed to Karachi —> Unloaded in Karachi —> Checked by MQM —> Loaded again and cargoed to Peshawar —> Delivered to Afghanistan.
Nice.
"it was Gen Zia and Gen Akhtar who masterminded the Talibans for their own benefits. American interference emerged ever since"
pervez musharraf ki najaiz aulad!
plz don't mind if i say that you are nothing more than a modern day liberal jackass who say some thing first and think later.
taliban is quite a new phenomenon against the lawlessness and bloodshed due to civil war between mujahideen factions.
those mujahideen who were organised,trained and armed by general zia ul haq and ISI.
and one more thing it was undoubtedly pervez musharraf submission and obedience which make yankis roll in the state affairs of pakistan…these yankis urinated on pakistan soil and crops of liberal jackasses grew over nights.
zia ul haq never allowed americans to establish a direct connection with afghan mujahideen.his behaviour was more honorable and soverign than your lowlife illegal father pervez musharraf.
kia tumharee maa nay tumhen qasam di hay kay apnay najaiz bap ka difa karo chahay kitni hi jihalat kiyoon na dikhani parhay?
"All famine are orchestrated by the US/EUK under supervision of our govt who are giving them sugar, wheat and everything related to food to US.Nato army from Karachi Port. MQM is their largest shareholders in it and this is what creating famine"
not only sugar and wheat but also there is a shortage of meat in peshawar and related area.residents of peshawar many times complained and pointed out about that…
"zia ul haq never allowed americans to establish a direct connection with afghan mujahideen.his behaviour was more honorable and soverign than your lowlife illegal father pervez musharraf."…first of all..pervez musharaff is not my father..but im pretty sure Zia ul Haq is yours as pointed out by Jawwad Bin Zia ul Taliban..who is probably your half-brother who has now chosen the right path..secondly…during Zia's time the CIA and US Army Special Forces had direct links with Pakistan's ISI and the SSG…if that is honorable for you…then God give you the sense to understand…or are you saying that the Mujahideen(read Taliban aka Hairy boobs) should be treated honourably as supposedly they were during Zia's time(occurding to you)?..as if they are saviours of the whole universe..Youre being fed the wrong propoganda…or maybe youve watched alot of conspiracy theorist videos on youtube…You,Dr Jawwad are the direct result of Pakistani media's(which survives on the basis of spreading conspiracy theories) yellow journalism…wake up
Dr Jackass. You are imitating a stray dog here … barking your way to nowhere. I am not supporting Musharraf in any way, because unlike you i have an impartial mind not influenced by a Military dictator/Father. I can see realistically whats right and whats wrong. Gen.Zia .. as much as you love him … set the grass roots for alot of things which are today are main issues.
Why do we blame Americans for everything, when our very own RULING ELITE, including your beloved father, sat in the Yankees lap. Americans have their own agenda, their own policies, their own benefits. Why should one expect them to stop with their interference in our country while we ourselves cant think for the benefit of our country.
The fault lies in us. Be it Musharraf, be it Zia, be it Ayub, be it Zardari … with the little gains they might have given us .. they have pushed us many years back. Lets stop with the blame game, lets stop wasting out time in figuring out what was done before and by whom. As a nation we should be worried about our present and our future because Pakistan is in fragile times.
You are a fellow country man, i wont direct anymore comments towards you. You have your view points and i might have my own. It wont get us anywhere criticizing each other.
We as a nation should be more focused and united for our country s causes.
Yeh hai toh hum hain.
Pakistan Zindabad.

Well Dr.Jawad…looks like you have run out of reasons to defend daddy Zia so youre getting personal again…truth hurts..i know,but that doesnt mean you come up with illogical bullshit which has no relevance here…my advice to you would be to take it easy and join a madrassah…you will find people like yourself there,who are interested in homosexuality and masterbation…….The fact that you have not replied to my previous argument in a civilized manner shows that i was right in pointing out that you are the product of yellow journalism…have fun inside the bubble…you wont hear from me now..

What has not changed is the mind set of dictator’s sons and their cronies.[Ahmad Nadeem Gehla]
====================
Sir,
Isn't it strange that General Musharraf's Martial Law 1999 – 2008 had accommodated everyone no matter Sons of Dictator, Liberals, Mullahs and those who had served Ayub, Yahya were in Musharraf's Martial Cabinet.
1 – Sharifuddin Peerzada. [Zia's Gift].
2 – Begum Atiya Inayatullah [Zia's Gift]
3 – Gohar Ayub's Son as Finance Minister has served Musharraf.
4 – Ejazul Haq [a great grandson of Mian Tufail [Ex Amerr Jamat-e-Islami] from maternal side, General Zia was the husband of Shafiqa Ziaul Haqa who was grand niece of Mian Tuafil] and Humayun Akhtar are now demading the reinvestigation of C130 Bahawalpur Crash of 1988 but served under Musharraf with the very person as their colleague who nowadays they alleged that he is responsible for Zia and Akhtar's Death.
5 – Major General [Retd] Mahmud Ali Durrani
Major General [Retd] Mahmud Ali Durrani – he was From 1977 to 1982 Pakistan’s defense and military attaché in Washington, D.C. Military Secretary [1982-1986] UNDER American Backed Military Dictator General Muhammad Zaiul Haq [1977 – 1988]. Durrani was posted as the commander the 1st Armoured Division in Multan, and being the former MS to the president persuaded the then Army chief and president General Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq to witness the tank exercise in Bahawalpur desert on 17 August, 1988 [where are those demented Generals i.e. General Retd. Mirza Aslam Beg and Lt. General Retd. Hamid Gul who wind up the investigations of General Zia's Plane Crash -Read, Who Killed Zia below].
REFERENCE: Major General [R] Mahmud Ali Durrani and Security Breach http://chagataikhan.blogspot.com/2009/01/major-ge…
6 – Captain Usman Aminuddin – A pimp of General Yahya was taken in Musharraf's Cabinet.
7 – Ather Minallah – Free Judiciary Movement and Chief spokesman for CJ Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhry but served Musharraf's Martial Law Cabinet as "Provincial Minister for Human Right in NWFP from 2000 to 2002.
NOTE: JUST SEARCH NEWSPAPERS September, October and November 1999 and you may find shocking news about Imran Khan and Qazi Hussain Ahmed praising and Inviting Military to overthrow Nawaz Sharif and take over.
Several of these Ex Servicemen are themselves hard core criminals and some of them have the “Honour” for serving under Musharraf and one of them has supported 1999 coup calling it essential for National Security:
1 – Asad Durrani was made Ambassador in Saudi Arabia by Musharraf.
2 – Hamid Gul supported General Musharraf/Army Mutiny in 1999.

The group of retired Pakistani generals and military officers who have asked General (Retd) Pervez Musharraf to resign as president of Pakistan have now reportedly decided to “apologise” to the nation “for imposing martial laws in the past, abrogating the Constitution several times, and not letting democracy flourish in the last 60 years”. The first “apology” session was to have taken place Thursday to which the retired brass had invited President Musharraf himself.

Its true wheat, sugar indeed produce in perverse-punjab what I meant that US make all parties agree that Talibans are our enemy #1..all parties.pk are agree on it and fighting with 'em and they are indeed giving them sugar, wheat and other foods.
Regarding MQM who was nurtured in Mush reined indeed backed by US/UK because they are against Talibans. I didn't mean that sugar, wheat loaded from KP and delivered to afghan
i mean KP is only port.pk and its been control by US under supervision of MQM. i will write on it sooon at my blog.

Friends,
This may help to understand the present mess.
Brzezinski’s Islamic Militant Policy Implemented In Pakistan.
http://saiye.instablogs.com/entry/the-new-great-g…
In Pakistan on 5 July 1977 Pakistan’s socialist minded Prime Minister Z.A.Bhutto – an advocate of the policy of independence from US domination through a combination of ‘Islamic socialism’ and a pro-China foreign policy ; as well as the architect of Muslim unity(held first Islamic summit at Lahore) and Pakistan’s nuclear program – was eliminated in a coup by General Zia –ul-Haq .Zia had already proved his worth as an American ally in Jordan , where he massacred the PLA to save the Jordanian throne for the Americans.
Apparently the US stopped all economic and military aid to Pakistan as a result of the coup .But in actual fact aid continued flowing in a big way for the militants and their Islamisation process through the Safari club and the rouge CIA; and planning was soon expedited to draw in and kill the Russian bear in Afghanistan.
In Afghanistan Daud suspected of having gone ‘soft’ on Pakistan was removed through a pro-Soviet coup on April 1978.This served as the ideal start point for implementing Brzezinski’s policy. Aid to Pakistan was resumed .The CIA commenced beaming of radio propaganda into Afghanistan, and a program and started for turning the Afghan mujahideen into radical Wahabi Islamic fighters. Zia proved invaluable at this stage.
He allowed a free hand to the CIA approved Wahabi Islamic doctrine to gain a firm foothold in Pakistan. Passing pro-Islamic legislation, he allowed FIB (Faisal Islamic bank) to start Islamic banking systems, and created Islamic courts. Most importantly, he imposed a new religious tax which was used to create tens of thousands of madrassas, or religious boarding schools, where “Islamic text books’ printed in USA and approved by CIA were taught. These schools would be used to train and indoctrinate a large portion of future Islamic militants using courses developed in the USA.
“Radical Islamist ideology began to permeate the military and the influence of the most extreme groups crept into the army,” writes journalist Kathy Gannon in her book I is for Infidel. The BBC later commented that Zia’s “Islamization” policies created a “culture of jihad” within Pakistan that continues until present day. Mean ISI took over to continue the field work and launched a massive campaign of terrorism, assassinating hundreds of teachers and civil servants in Afghanistan.”
For Iran, in November 1978 former Under Secretary of State George Ball was appointed as advisor to President Carter! This is most amazing for he was known to hold the view that the US should drop support for the Shah of Iran in favor of the radical Islamist opposition of Ayatollah Khomeini. Later during his exile The Shah would note with bitter hind sight,”It should have been clear to me that the Americans wanted me out. What else was I to make of the Administration’s sudden decision to call George Ball as advisor on Iran?”
For Al-Qaeda around 1978-79(the details are fuzzy) Osama Bin Laden visited the US and Britain -or both -ostensibly for the treatment of his son Abdul Rahman born with hydrocephalus. However the required treatment-an operation – was never carried out. More likely he went there to get his final briefs first hand!

The BBC later commented that Zia’s “Islamization” policies created a “culture of jihad” within Pakistan that continues until present day. Mean ISI took over to continue the field work and launched a massive campaign of terrorism, assassinating hundreds of teachers and civil servants in Afghanistan.”
For Iran, in November 1978 former Under Secretary of State George Ball was appointed as advisor to President Carter! This is most amazing for he was known to hold the view that the US should drop support for the Shah of Iran in favor of the radical Islamist opposition of Ayatollah Khomeini. Later during his exile The Shah would note with bitter hind sight,”It should have been clear to me that the Americans wanted me out. What else was I to make of the Administration’s sudden decision to call George Ball as advisor on Iran?”
For Al-Qaeda around 1978-79(the details are fuzzy) Osama Bin Laden visited the US and Britain -or both -ostensibly for the treatment of his son Abdul Rahman born with hydrocephalus. However the required treatment-an operation – was never carried out. More likely he went there to get his final briefs first hand!

"he imposed a new religious tax which was used to create tens of thousands of madrassas, or religious boarding schools, where “Islamic text books’ printed in USA and approved by CIA were taught. These schools would be used to train and indoctrinate a large portion of future Islamic militants using courses developed in the USA"

Are We to Blame for Afghanistan? By Chalmers Johnson
"Asked whether he in any way regretted these actions,
Brzezinski replied:
Regret what? The secret operation was an excellent idea. It drew the Russians into the Afghan trap and you want me to regret it? On the day that the Soviets officially crossed the border, I wrote to President Carter, saying, in essence: 'We now have the opportunity of giving to the USSR its Vietnam War.'
Nouvel Observateur: "And neither do you regret having supported Islamic fundamentalism, which has given arms and advice to future terrorists?"
Brzezinski: "What is more important in world history? The Taliban or the collapse of the Soviet empire? Some agitated Muslims or the liberation of Central Europe and the end of the Cold War?"

Dear Dr Sahab,
For your kind perusal,
As per a book “Charlie Wilson’s War by George Crile during the so-called Afghan Jihad following things did happen;
“There were frightening posters and official briefings from the moment the soldiers got off the transport planes at Bagram Air Base, whispers about what had happened to their colleagues. They all knew about the fanatic Gulbuddin Hekmatyar’s practice of leaving armless and legless Soviet soldiers on the road. {Page 288-489}.
“Hart {Station Chief of CIA in Pakistan in Afghan War days} himself, however, was deeply suspicious, even angered by Massoud’s refusal to move on the Salang Highway. He passed on his doubts to Langley, along with the ISI’s crude joke about the unmanly nature of Massoud’s Tajik: “When a Pashtun wants to make love to a woman, his first choice is always a Tajik man.” {Page 199}.
“In London, Avrakotos asked for a personal meeting with MI6 {British Intelligence}’s Massoud expert. He turned out to be a young, blond SAS guerilla-warfare expert with the peculiar nickname of Awk, a name said to vaguely resemble the grunting noise he would make on maneuvers. Awk had just returned from three months inside the war zone. It was about a two-week journey in those days, walking north from the Pakistan border through Nuristan and the Hindu Kush to reach Massoud’s valley. Awk had gone in with two other SAS commandos. Their report had astonished Avrakotos. “There was one passage in there that really got me,” remembers Avrakotos. “This guy was sleeping with a couple of his buddies and he said he awoke one night and heard horrible groans. He didn’t get up but was able to put on his night-vision goggles and saw a group of Massoud’s guy literally cornholing a Russian prisoner.” {Page 199}.
“At MI6 headquarters Awk told Avrakotos that watching that man die had made him finally understand the Afghans, ancient code: “Honours, hospitality, and revenge.” Raping an infidel was not the atrocity it would be in the West; it was simply revenge. {Page 199}.
“To begin with, anyone defecting to the Dushman {enemy} would have to be a crook, a thief, or someone who wanted to get corn holed everyday, because nine out of ten prisoners were dead within twenty-four hours and they were always turned into concubines by the mujahideen. {Page 332}.
“At one point Avrakotos {CIA officer responsible for Afghan Jihad} arrived for one of these White House sessions armed with five huge photographic blowups. Before unveiling them he explained that they would provide a useful understanding of the kind of experience a Soviet soldier could expect to have should he surrender the mujahideen. One of them showed two Russians sergeants being used as concubines. Another had a Russian hanging from the turret of a tank with a vital part of his anatomy removed.” {Page 333}.
“The CIA found itself in the preposterous position of having to pony up $ 50, 000 to bribe the Afghans to deliver two live ones {Russian Prisoners}. “These two guys were basket cases,” says Avrakotos. “One had been ****ed so many times he didn’t know what was going on” {Page 333}.
“In an interview on a private TV Channel ARY ONE’S VIEWS ON NEWS with Dr. Shahid Masood (June 16, 2004), former IG Police Sardar Mohammad Chaudhry, who was in sanctum sanctorum of General Zia, said that after the imposition of martial law of 1977, the West had cut off all financial aid and the country was on the verge of an economic collapse. Zia and his generals decided that the way out was to tap funds from Saudi Arabia. For that Islam had to be used as bait. Then on, the Hudood Ordinance and other such infamous laws against women were introduced ensuring a free flow of money from Saudi Arabia. Zia was never serious in his Islamic endeavours. "Regrettably, " Sardar said, "I was a part of that."
General Zia ul Haq appointed a ‘Society Lady’ Joanne Herring as Pakistan’s honorary Consul in Houston, Texas USA, earlier her husband Bob Herring was offered the post but he declined and gave his wife’s name.
“She was Zia’s most trusted American adviser, as per Sahibzada Yaqub Khan, She absolutely had his ear, it was terrible,” “Zia would leave cabinet meetings just to take Joanne’s calls. “There was no affair with Zia,” Wilson recalls, but it’s impossible to deal with Joanne and not deal with her on sexual basis. No matter who you are, you take those phone calls.” {Page 67-68}.

Late Maj Gen Aboobaker Osman Mitha [The Only Memon General of Pakistan Army and he founded the Special Service Group (SSG – Commando Division of the Pakistan Army) posthumously published autobiography, Unlikely Beginnings.
According to Gen Mitha, it was Gul Hasan who saved Brig Zia-ul-Haq, as he then was, from being sacked. Zia was in Jordan. The year was 1971. Gen Yahya received a signal from Maj Gen Nawazish, the head of the Pakistan military mission in Amman, asking that Zia be court-martialled for disobeying GHQ orders by commanding a Jordanian armour division against the Palestinians in which thousands were slaughtered. That ignominious event is known as Operation Black September. It was Gul Hasan who interceded for Zia and had Yahya let him off. Mitha was treated very badly. His Hilal-i-Jurat was withdrawn in February 1972, something that also appears to have been Gul Hasan’s handiwork.
