What did Indian Air Force (IAF)
achieve in twenty six years while consuming over $2 billion?
Zilch; Zero; Nada; Nothing - except a failed project and
a continued embarrassment in the shape 'Tejas'. Tejas LCA
(Light Combat Aircraft, also known as Last Chance Aircraft)
has gone many trials and tests and there's no sign of
induction as yet. It has now been announced to enter IAF in
2010. Pakistan's own ambitious JF-17 project was launched in
partnership with China in 1995. In just eleven years and with
just $500 million spent, the JF-17 was flying in Pakistani
Airspace on March 23rd 2007 with the maiden flight having
taken place much earlier in 2003. [MORE] |

Two years ago, when
isolated reports in the Pakistani media accused the United
States of playing a double game in Afghanistan, most
commentators dismissed them as conspiracy theories and
kneejerk anti-Americanism. Today those reports dominate the
mainstream Pakistani media. The distrust is so serious that
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had to turn her first
official visit to Pakistan into a firefighting mission,
kicking off a charm offensive to win over skeptic Pakistanis.

| Where
Is The Mourning, Mr. Zardari? |
More than one hundred
innocent Pakistanis killed in one day, more than two hundred
in less than a month. Attacks linked to our own and America's
'failed Afghan policy. Attacks supported by anti-Pakistan
forces in the region and not just unknown 'extremists'.
Children left without parents, a nation terrorized. And the
response of our political elite? Dinner, toasts and
merrymaking in Islamabad. Was a reception for a foreign guest
more important than sharing the grief of your people? A
shameless foreign-backed ruling elite. [MORE] |

| Some
Question To Mrs Clinton And Mr Qureshi |
The GHQ attack
effectively derailed the parliamentary debate over Kerry-Lugar
bill and gave a breathing space to the isolated pro-US
government in Islamabad. It allowed Shah Mahmood Qureshi to do
his Munich-style appeasement and sell out the Pakistani nation
to Washington. Without the GHQ attack, the government could
never have scuttled the expected Parliament resolution against
the US aid conditions. The subsequent attacks on Pakistani
military personnel were not the usual Taliban-style terrorism.

ambassador Anne W. Patterson already has set a precedence by

turn. [MORE] |

US Misses the Message From Pakistan's People |
There has always been in
American foreign policy circles a virus called arrogance,
caused by the hereditary assumption that Americans know better
than others. Surprisingly, this does not always prove the
case, but the condition seems highly resistant to treatment,
even by experience. [MORE] |

Ministry Covering Up For US Mercenaries And
Terrorists |
There have been several
incidents during the last few months of foreigners carrying
illegal arms in the federal capital. Some foreigners were
found not only carrying illegal weapons, but also threatening,
harassing and frightening the public in Islamabad. The law
enforcement agencies have been particularly efficient in
tightening security measures around the city as a response to
citizen complaints. [MORE] |

the only ultimate solution. [MORE] |

Concerns On KLB Remain Unchanged |
The Army's reservations
over the Kerry-Lugar Law (KLL) remain unchanged even after the
issuance of the explanatory note by the sponsors of the aid
bill and its subsequent acclamation by the government, a
military source said. However, the director-general ISPR, when
contacted, did not explain the military's new position on the
US legislation. He only said the Army had clearly mentioned in
its press release that parliament was sovereign and it had to
make the final decision. [More] |
