    If at all, as usual Kamal Hasasn digs at Hindus(especially Brahmins), Hindu Culture may be found as when asked by the psychiatrist whether she will have illicit affair, the woamn replies,

     

    “what,Me?  illicit affair, Not now’

    Or Kamal Hassan offers  a chicken piece to a Brahmin girl first and telling her ‘Paappathi( a crude slang for a Brahmin woman), you taste it first”

    http://ramanisblog.in/2013/02/02/yes-viswaroopam-hurts-film-review/

     

    “An unpalatable aspect of the film – totally ignored by the secular media – is the debasement of Brahmin women and their cultural practices. Kamal Haasan, like many actors and politicians in the State, has for years thrived on anti-Brahmin diatribes. Thus, Vishwaroopam has a scene where the hero tells the heroine, a Brahmin and a vegetarian, to eat a chicken and tell him how she finds it.

    He addresses her as “paapathi”, which has upset this community. While this is the Tamil word for Brahmin women just as parpaan denotes Brahmin men, under the Dravidian movement the word has long degenerated in an abusive term for Brahmin women. In fact, a decade ago, a fringe party painted words to the effect that “Brahmin women should be made common property” on walls around Chennai.

    “After nearly 10 days of high drama, marked by protests, mediation and negotiations, actor-director Kamal Haasan’s trilingual film “Vishwaroopam” is finally set for release in theatres across Tamil Nadu. The actor agreed to seven demands of Muslim leaders, mostly muting of the audio of portions objected to by them, thus bringing the curtains down on an episode in the history of the Tamil film industry, marred by allegations of infringement of freedom of expression and hurting of communal sentiments.

    “I would like to thank the chief minister and the home secretary for facilitating the talks,” said Kamal Haasan, who arrived from Mumbai this morning after his film’s Friday release in theatres in the north. “We discussed many scenes with our Muslim brothers and finally both parties agreed to delete some sound clips from the film,” said Kamal, adding, “We will withdraw our writ petition (in the Madras high court) and hope that the court will lift the ban soon. The release date of the movie will be announced very shortly.” He said the altered film would be sent to the Censor Board of Film Certification for approval.

    With state home secretary R Rajagopal playing mediator, the actor and 15 representatives of the Tamil Nadu Federation of Muslim Organizations sat around the negotiating table at the state secretariat and talked for nearly four hours before thrashing out a compromise. The talks began at 3pm and went on until 7pm, when the group emerged to announce a happy ending to the controversy. Reacting strongly to Kamal agreeing to the demands of Muslim leaders, filmmaker K Hariharan said, “It is absurd according to me. Kamal did this under pressure. He can’t do anything about it.”

  • “Al Qaeda Taliban CIA Invented “Declassified Files. Pakistan. 2

    This is the second and Final part of the series of ‘Al Qaeda, Taliban invented by The US’

     

    Even if half of this is  true,Pakistan is to be pitied.

    “Mullah Omar’s call to arms in Singesar is only part of the story of the rise of the Taliban that emerged from weeks of traveling across Afghanistan and from scores of interviews with Afghans, diplomats and others who followed the movement from its earliest days in 1994. It is a story that is still unfolding, with the Taliban struggling to consolidate their hold on Kabul, the capital. The city fell three months ago to a Taliban force of a few thousand fighters, who entered the city with barely a shot fired. But the Taliban, despite their protestations of independence, did not score their successes alone. Pakistani leaders saw domestic political gains in supporting the movement, which draws most of support from the ethnic Pashtun who predominate along the Pakistan-Afghanista n border. Perhaps more important, Pakistan’s leaders, in funneling supplies of ammunition, fuel and food to the Taliban, hoped to advance an old Pakistani dream of linking their country, through Afghanistan, to an economic and political alliance with the Muslim states of Central Asia. At crucial moments during the two years of the Taliban’s rise to power, the United States stood aside. It did little to discourage support for the Afghan mullahs both from Pakistan and from another American ally, Saudi Arabia, which found its own reasons for supporting the Taliban in their conservative brand of Islam. American officials emphatically deny the assertion, widely believed among the Taliban’s opponents in Afghanistan, that the United States offered the movement covert support. American diplomats’ frequent visits to Kandahar, headquarters of the Taliban’s governing body, the officials insist, were mainly exploratory. In fact, American policy on the Taliban has seesawed back and forth. The Taliban have found favor with some American officials, who see in their implacable hostility toward Iran an important counterweight in the region. But other officials remain uncomfortable about the Taliban’s policies on women, which they say have created the most backward-looking and intolerant society anywhere in Islam. And they say that the Taliban, despite promises to the contrary, have done nothing to root out the narcotics traffickers and terrorists who have found a haven in Afghanistan under the mujahedeen.

    In the Video one finds that USSR is using th Taliban!?

    Documentary 2006 – Declassified: The Taliban (Part 1/5)

     

    “In its most recent policy statement on Afghanistan, the State Department called on other nations to ”engage” with the Taliban in hopes of moderating their policies. But the statement came as the Taliban were tightening still further their Islamic social code, particularly the taboos that have banned women from working, closed girls’ schools, and required all women beyond puberty to cloak themselves head to toe in garments called burqas that are the traditional garb of Afghan village women…..

    The News in Pakistan, put it simply: ”The story of the Taliban is not one of outsiders imposing a solution, but of the Afghans themselves seeking deliverance from mujahedeen groups that had become cruel and inhuman.

     

    The Taliban invented

    But first stability had to be restored to Afghanistan. During the civil war fighting in 1995 the first substantial numbers of Taliban appeared, “invented” by the Pakistani ISI and perhaps funded by the CIA and Saudi Arabia. Unocal and its Saudi partner Delta Oil may have even played a major role in buying off local commanders. Security in Afghanistan was apparently their sole purpose. On 26 September 1996 the Taliban took Kabul. Michael Bearden, a CIA representative in Afghanistan during the war against the USSR and currently the CIA’s unofficial spokesman, recalls how US viewed the situation at the time: the Taliban were not considered the worst: they were young and hot-headed, but that was better than civil war. They controlled all the territory between Pakistan and Turkmenistan’s gas fields, which might be good as it would be possible to build a pipeline across Afghanistan and supply gas and energy to the new market. Everyone was happy (5). Unocal’s vice-president, Chris Taggart, barely bothered to pretend Unocal was not backing the Taliban; he described their advance as a positive development. Claiming that Taliban seizure of power was likely to help the gas pipeline project, he even envisaged US recognition of the Taliban (6). He was wrong, but no matter: this was the honeymoon between the US and the “theology students”. Anything goes where oil and gas are involved. In fact, in November 1997 Unocal invited a Taliban delegation to the US and, in early December, the company opened a training centre at the University of Omaha, Nebraska, to instruct 137 Afghans in pipeline construction technology. The political and military situation showed no improvement, leading some in Washington to consider support for the Taliban and the oil pipeline a political mistake. Deputy Secretary of State Strobe Talbott warned in 1997 that the region could become a centre for terrorists, a source of political and religious extremism and a theatre of war (7).

    In interviews, however, American intelligence officials and high-ranking military officers said that Pakistanis were indeed flown to safety, in a series of nighttime airlifts that were approved by the Bush Administration. The Americans also said that what was supposed to be a limited evacuation apparently slipped out of control, and, as an unintended consequence, an unknown number of Taliban and Al Qaeda fighters managed to join in the exodus. “Dirt got through the screen,” a senior intelligence official told me. Last week, Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld did not respond to a request for comment. Musharraf won American support for the airlift by warning that the humiliation of losing hundreds—and perhaps thousands—of Pakistani Army men and intelligence operatives would jeopardize his political survival. “Clearly, there is a great willingness to help Musharraf,” an American intelligence official told me. A C.I.A. analyst said that it was his understanding that the decision to permit the airlift was made by the White House and was indeed driven by a desire to protect the Pakistani leader. The airlift “made sense at the time,” the C.I.A. analyst said. “Many of the people they spirited away were the Taliban leadership”—who Pakistan hoped could play a role in a postwar Afghan government. According to this person, “Musharraf wanted to have these people to put another card on the table” in future political negotiations. “We were supposed to have access to them,” he said, but “it didn’t happen,” and the rescued Taliban remain unavailable to American intelligence. According to a former high-level American defense official, the airlift was approved because of representations by the Pakistanis that “there were guys— intelligence agents and underground guys—who needed to get out.” REFERENCE: The Getaway Questions surround a secret Pakistani airlift. by Seymour M.

    From Left: United States Air Force; Robert Young Pelton; Mike Wintroath/Associated Press; Adam Berry/Bloomberg News – From left: Michael D. Furlong, the official who was said to have hired private contractors to track militants in Afghanistan and Pakistan; Robert Young Pelton, a contractor; Duane Clarridge, a former C.I.A. official; and Eason Jordan, a former television news executive. Contractors Tied to Effort to Track and Kill Militants – KABUL, Afghanistan — Under the cover of a benign government information-gathering program, a Defense Department official set up a network of private contractors in Afghanistan and Pakistan to help track and kill suspected militants, according to military officials and businessmen in Afghanistan and the United States. The official, Michael D. Furlong, hired contractors from private security companies that employed formerC.I.A. and Special Forces operatives. The contractors, in turn, gathered intelligence on the whereabouts of suspected militants and the location of insurgent camps, and the information was then sent to military units and intelligence officials for possible lethal action in Afghanistan and Pakistan, the officials said. While it has been widely reported that the C.I.A. and the military are attacking operatives of Al Qaeda and others through unmanned, remote-controlled drone strikes, some American officials say they became troubled that Mr. Furlong seemed to be running an off-the-books spy operation. The officials say they are not sure who condoned and supervised his work.

  • “CIA Invented Taliban,Al Qaeda”Pak Intellignece Offiicial I

    Just when I was rejoicing that the saner elements in Pakistan has prevailed over the hardliners  in the form of youngsters rising against terrorism by calling for understanding of the Pakistanis(a Blogger started this-please read my blog) and the retort by a 13-year-old girl against Taliban attack in Pakistan , I came across a an article written by a Retired Officer of Intelligence Bureau, Government of Pakistan.,Research Analyst/Former Intelligence Officer of DIB, Pakistan..

    In an article he quotes extensively from sources from the US, including US Spies and US papers like New York Times, Washington Post and traces the History of the Taliban to the Times of Reagan and argues Mullah Omar was actually a Fighter against the Taliban.

    After going through this one gets confused.

    Is this true?

    Does any one have more information on this subject?

    Story:

    Jimmy Carter
    Cover of Jimmy Carter

    Steve Coll ends his important book on Afghanistan — Ghost Wars: The Secret History of the CIA, Afghanistan and bin Laden, from the Soviet Invasion to 10 September 2001–by quoting Afghan President Hamid Karzai: “What an unlucky country.” Americans might find this a convenient way to ignore what their government did in Afghanistan between 1979 and the present, but luck had nothing to do with it. Brutal, incompetent, secret operations of the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency, frequently manipulated by the military intelligence agencies of Pakistan and Saudi Arabia, caused the catastrophic devastation of this poor country. On the evidence contained in Coll’s book Ghost Wars, neither the Americans nor their victims in numerous Muslim and Third World countries will ever know peace until the Central Intelligence Agency has been abolished. It should by now be generally accepted that the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan on Christmas Eve 1979 was deliberately provoked by the United States. In his memoir published in 1996, the former CIA director Robert Gates made it clear that the American intelligence services began to aid the mujahidin guerrillas not after the Soviet invasion, but six months before it. In an interview two years later with Le Nouvel Observateur, President Carter‘s national security adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski proudly confirmed Gates’s assertion. “According to the official version of history,” Brzezinski said, “CIA aid to the mujahidin began during 1980, that’s to say, after the Soviet army invaded Afghanistan. But the reality, kept secret until now, is completely different: on 3 July 1979 President Carter signed the first directive for secret aid to the opponents of the pro-Soviet regime in Kabul. And on the same day, I wrote a note to the president in which I explained that in my opinion this aid would lead to a Soviet military intervention.”….

    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?

    The motives of the White House and the CIA were shaped by the Cold War: a determination to kill as many Soviet soldiers as possible and the desire to restore some aura of rugged machismo as well as credibility that U.S. leaders feared they had lost when the Shah of Iran was overthrown. The CIA had no intricate strategy for the war it was unleashing in Afghanistan. Howard Hart, the agency’s representative in the Pakistani capital, told Coll that he understood his orders as: “You’re a young man; here’s your bag of money, go raise hell. Don’t fuck it up, just go out there and kill Soviets.” These orders came from a most peculiar American. William Casey, the CIA’s director from January 1981 to January 1987, was a Catholic Knight of Malta educated by Jesuits.

    When neighbors came to Mullah Mohammed Omar in the spring of 1994, they had a story that was shocking even by the grim standards of Afghanistan’ s 18-year-old civil war. Two teen-age girls from the mullah’s village of Singesar had been abducted by one of the gangs of mujahedeen, or ”holy warriors,” who controlled much of the Afghan countryside. The girls’ heads had been shaved, they had been taken to a checkpoint outside the village and they had been repeatedly raped. At the time, Mullah Omar was an obscure figure, a former guerrilla commander against occupying Soviet forces who had returned home in disgust at the terror mujahedeen groups were inflicting on Afghanistan. He was living as a student, or talib, in a mud-walled religious school that centered on rote learning of the Koran. But the girls’ plight moved him to act. Gathering 30 former guerrilla fighters, who mustered between them 16 Kalashnikov rifles, he led an attack on the checkpoint, freed the girls and tied the checkpoint commander by a noose to the barrel of an old Soviet tank. As those around him shouted ”God is Great!” Mullah Omar ordered the tank barrel raised and left the dead man hanging as a grisly warning. The Singesar episode is now part of Afghan folklore. Barely 30 months after taking up his rifle, Mullah Omar is the supreme ruler of most of Afghanistan. The mullah, a heavyset 38-year old who lost his right eye in the war against the Russians, is known to his followers as Prince of All Believers. He leads an Islamic religious movement, the Taliban, that has conquered 20 of Afghanistan’ s 32 provinces..

  • New Generation Starts Asserting in Pakistan?

    I was planning to write on the incident involving the shooting of Malala Yousafzai, a 14 year old girl for her taking on the Taliban.

    I posted a blog on a Blogger attempting to change the perception of the world of the stereotyped Pakistani.

    I am posting Excerpts from an interview from Christian Science Monitor.

    We will know how the youngsters are reacting and it is a welcome sign.

    Will the elders ,Pakistani Media follow suit?

    The omission of Politicians is intentional.

    If the present generation asserts itself,the hardliners will be sidelined.

    Excerpts.

    “Which one of you is Malala? Speak up, otherwise I will shoot you all,” a hooded, bearded Talibanmilitant asked a bus full of schoolgirls on their way home earlier this week. “She is propagating against the soldiers of Allah, the Taliban. She must be punished,” the Taliban militant shouted louder. Then, recognizing her, he shot her at a point blank range…

    “I wanted to scream, shout and tell the whole world what we were going through. But it was not possible. The Taliban would have killed me, my father, my whole family. I would have died without leaving any mark. So I chose to write with a different name. And it worked, as my valley has been freed,” she told me when I invited her for an interview for the TV station I am heading now, ..

    Malala’s friend, Shazia, who was also injured that day, recounted the event to me as her eyes filled with tears.

    “They stopped our school van. They were riding on a bike. The masked man kept pointing guns at us and the other was shouting ‘where is Malala?!’ I froze with a flashback to the old dark days: I remembered the headless bodies, slaughtering of rivals – merely on dissent or slightest doubt of spying –the grotesque violence.”

    Just a few moments before, she said, the girls had been singing a traditional Pushto folk song on their way back from school, its lyrics vowing sacrificing their lives for their motherland, the beautiful valley of Swat.

    “With a drop of my sweetheart’s blood, Shed to defend the motherland, I will put a beauty spot on my forehead, Such would put to shame the rose in the garden,” they sang.

    Her father, Zia Yousafzai, a Pashtun left-wing educator, almost always accompanied her on outings and interviews. He runs a chain of schools in Swat valley, the Khushal Public School, named after a famous Pashtun poet. I met father and daughter many times, and discussed with Malala the possibility of her hosting a show to interview leading politicians and dignitaries for the TV channel where I work.

    “That will be fun, countering mullahs,” she replied, but said she wanted to focus on her studies. Her father, bursting with pride, was cautious. “It’s not the right time. She has already been in limelight in the national and international media. Her life can be under threat and she has to go a long way,” her father told me.

    The last time that I was with Malala, my 9-year-old daughter, Risa, called me to ask when I was coming home.

    “I am with a hero, a very courageous girl. She has defeated the Taliban,” I told her.

    “The horrible Taliban? She must be so brave. Can I talk to her?” my daughter asked, and the girls chatted on the telephone for a few minutes.

  • Blogger Attempts Change Pakistani Stereotype Welcome.

    A Blogger from Pakistan is attempting to change the way the Pakistanis are viewed across the Globe.

    Pakistanis are described as Terrorists mainly, the Blogger rues and states that the Pakistanis are being stereotyped.

    This view is not without merits.

    Why are the Pakistanis stereotyped this way?

    Pakistanis resist being stereotyped.jpg.
    Pakistanis resist being stereotyped.

    The West, especially the US would love to stereotype any one, especially in a negative light to suit its purposes.

    The behaviour of the Leaders of the country whose face is visible to the Globe.

    The action and  reaction of the Pakistanis in the web.

    The non presence of Pakistani readers and bloggers on Hot debates on a range of topics with a stand that is not essentially Islamic.

    The structure of Institutions in Pakistan.

    The spectacle of corrupt leaders in Pakistan with deals and counter deals to offset corruption charges.

    The meek following of US Diktats.

    The inability to address the issue of terrorism excepting quoting figures.

    As to US stereotyping, it is to be expected.It has done/is doing for India as well.

    This can be countered only by web presence in retorting with facts.

    The globally visible face of Pakistan, Musharraf,Zardari,Gilani,Pasha,Mullahs,Pakistani Cricket team ( which never completes a series with out a scandal,Pakistan Taliban…. is not rosy.

    Why can not they behave normally?

    You find people like Nawaz Sharief being indicted for Corruption,getting asylum in Saudi and then comes back to Pakistan when he finds he can do a deal for power.

    Musharraf  runs away to UK and a warrant against his arrest is pending in Pakistan!

    Starting from Ayub Khan..running through Zulfikat Ali Bhutto,Yahya Khan,now Bilawal..are these people the face of Pakistan?

    Zardari has corruption cases in the Court and there is run in with the court on a daily basis.

    Pasha of ISI gets indicted for hiding the information on Ossma in Pakistan from the Government , he(Pasha) lambasted the US and immediately rushes to US to meet Panetta.

    On the one hand leaders declare that they will not tolerate Drone attacks in Pakistan by the US but hobnob with the US the same day and keep on asking for more US Money!

    On the Pakistani Cricket team ,the less said the better.

    Best talents, highly motivated, yet morally bankrupt-openly clashing with each other, fixing matches and getting caught in Foreign soil.

    On the Pakistani Taliban the impression one gets is that Pakistan is ambivalent is on this issue.

    These facts are to be addressed to and the good things happening in Pakistan; like the people taking on Extremism and corruption.

    Readers /surfers ,Media need to come out of islamic orientation once in a while at least to contribute.

    Bloggers, Media should also do their bit instead of harping the same subject India/US hatred,Kashmir.

    The effort of the blogger is laudable.

    She can send me a list of objective sites in Pakistan(like Pakistan Tea House WordPress) to me and I will carry their message on image make over as I am doing right now.

    Pakistanis Protest Sectarian Violence.jpg.
    Pakistanis Protest Sectarian Violence.

    ”

    Today, tens of hundreds of people showed up from 8 year olds to 60+ senior citizens in different cities of Pakistan to clean up the mess created by the few individuals who somehow always end up defining Pakistan. Here’s to all of today’s participants, you’re the reason why we have a good future. Pakistan is proud of you.

    [x]

    What saddens me the most is that, like they said, mainstream media willnever cover this amazing act of unity and peace by Pakistanis after the riots. Thousands and thousands of Pakistani citizens came out after the violent riots and cleaned up streets, public venues and other places to prove that the disruptive ones don’t speak for the goodhearted majority.

    More power to you, Pakistanis.

    http://pakistanisagainststereotyping.tumblr.com/

    ”

    “When it comes to international media and reporting, a stereotype has been established of Pakistanis as people full of hate,” said the 23-year-old student of FC College, where she studies media and political science. “People would post on my blog asking whether Pakistanis were really how they were shown in the media.”

    So on August 8, Kasana set out to make a statement against this stereotyping. She advertised heavily on social media, inviting people to contribute to her project by taking a picture of themselves holding a piece of paper with the Pakistan flag on it and a message declaring: “I am a Pakistani and I refuse to be stereotyped.”

    “The idea was to encourage Pakistanis to speak out and tell the world that we are a lot more than what people see on the television,” Kasana said.

    Within an hour her appeal for entries, Kasana’s project ‘Pakistanis against Stereotyping‘ received close to a hundred photographs. And much to her amazement, she received contributions not just from Pakistanis across the world, but people of other nationalities too.
