Who Needs enemies with KSA around?
Jun 13th
Khaademain Haramein Shareefain! I am disgusted at the hypocrisy of this Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The Kingdom has recently conducted tests to shut down all its air-defenses for Israeli bombers to fly over its territory to bomb Iran. Below is the report published in the daily Gulf News of the UAE:
Saudis tests clearing skies for Israel to bomb Iran: report
Saudi Arabia has conducted tests to stand down its air defences to allow Israeli jets to use its airspace in a bombing raid on Iran’s nuclear facilities, The Times newspaper reported on Saturday.
“The Saudis have given their permission for the Israelis to pass over and they will look the other way,” a US defence source in the area told the paper.
“They have already done tests to make sure their own jets aren’t scrambled and no one gets shot down. This has all been done with the agreement of the (US) State Department.”
Israel, which regards Iran as its principal threat, has refused to rule out using military action to prevent Tehran developing nuclear weapons. Iran says its nuclear programme is aimed solely at power generation.
The Times said Riyadh, which views Iran as a regional threat, had agreed to allow Israel to use a narrow corridor of its airspace in the north of the country to shorten the distance in the event of any bombing raid on Iran.
A source in Saudi Arabia said the arrangement was common knowledge within defence circles in the kingdom.
“We all know this. We will let them [the Israelis] through and see nothing,” the source told The Times.
Is there anything else left to say except for the fact that we really don’t need enemies with the likes of KSA, Egypt and Jordan around!

Loading ...Another Flotilla?
Jun 5th
Following what I would call the ‘Success’ of the Freedom Flotilla, Hezbollah Chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah has called for another aid convoy to complete what the Freedom Flotilla had sought out to do – break the maritime siege of Gaza. I was fortunate to catch a live web-stream of the speech over the internet last night.
Israel faced a public relations disaster worldwide after it decided to storm the flotilla with around 100 commando’s firing at unarmed humanitarian activists with live ammunition.
The Hezbollah chief was addressing a huge gathering of thousands and thousands of Lebanese people at an event held in Beirut to remember those who lost their lives on the Freedom Flotilla.
Sayyed Nasrallah praised Turkey’s leadership for the stand they have taken since the attack on the Freedom Flotilla describing the deteriorating ties between Turkey and Israel an “earthquake” for Israel.
Interestingly, following this call by the chief of the Hezbollah last night, there are reports coming in that the Turkish Prime Minister, Rejeb Tayyib Erdogan, has decided to lead another flotilla escorted by the Turkish Navy for its security. If confirmed, this will be a diplomatic nightmare for both Tel Aviv and Washington.
If Israel acts reasonably (which it is not used to), the siege of Gaza shall break – leading to another humiliating public defeat of Israel’s unjust stand after its defeat in 2006 in which it was unable to release its captured soldiers despite a bloody conflict between Lebanon and Israel.
If it acts unreasonably, we not only have a certain possibility of an armed conflict between Israel and Turkey, the world would also be at risk of another (may God Forbid) World War.

Jan 20th
India has been resorting to unprovoked firing across the Indo-Pak border and the Line of Control for over a week now. In the latest incident, two Pakistani soldiers have embraced martyrdom.
Earlier, the Indian forces violated a cease-fire agreement near Sialkot and then across the LoC.
It is a clear indication of mounting pressure on Pakistan from both sides. One side is at war due to Indian-American sponsored terrorism and the other side faces an enemy hell bent upon resorting to violence to prove its hegemony in the region. More >

Dec 6th
December 04, 2009 – You ruthlessly attacked and killed over 40, almost half of whom were children. You attacked worshipers of the Almighty and I am sure, to absolutely the very core of my heart, HE will not spare you!
Shame on you too, Zardari, for sitting in your protected castle and doing everything in your capacity to encourage US-Indian-Israeli interests in Pakistan and letting their forces wreck havoc on our land! Shame on you for marching brutally over the very fundamental policies of your wife! You are a dictator and nothing more!
As those who were martyred have headed off to their eternal abode in religious zeal and full military honour, I see hope and light at the end of the tunnel. This is a desperate act showing how close to elimination the CIA is in its covert operations inside Pakistan. We know you are well prepared, but we are better! The land is ours and we have used this advantage brilliantly to strike you where it hurts!
What was the point targeting and deliberately killing children?
Besides 16 children, an army major general, a brigadier, two lieutenant colonels, a major and a number of soldiers were among those killed in a multi-pronged attack at the Parade Land Askari mosque that involved grenade throwing, firing from automatic guns and deadly explosions. The siege ended after two suicide bombers blew themselves up.
“Like every Friday my son had accompanied me to the mosque. Now he is dead and I am standing here in front of you,” said a highly disturbed elderly man, his clothes soaked in blood.
You will repent, CIA (Taliban)! And WE WILL TEAR YOU DOWN!!

Oct 29th
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.

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan—One hundred and ten killed (110) in one day. More than two hundred dead in less than a month. If this were any other country, emergency would have been declared, nation would have been mobilized, and intellectuals would have moved to question the policies of rulers who draw their strength from Washington and London and not from the people and the interests of Pakistan.

Oct 27th
Eric S, Margolis
October 12, 2009
President Barack Obama and Congress are wrestling with widening the war in Afghanistan. After eight years of military operations costing US $236 billion, the US commander in Afghanistan just warned of the threat of `failure,’ aka defeat.
Truth is war’s first casualty. The Afghan War’s biggest untruth is, `we’ve got to fight terrorists over there so we don’t have to fight them at home.’
Politicians and generals keep using this canard to justify a war they can’t otherwise explain or justify. Many North Americans still buy this lie because they believe the 9/11 attacks came directly from the Afghanistan- based al-Qaida and Taliban movements.
