You can see the cover story of Time magazine showing a girl brutally mutilated by her in-laws in Afghanistan. They printed this picture to show us "What will happen if We (US and others) leave Afghanistan". This is an individual event which happened under the Karzai rule not the taliban. Saying this I do not in anyway support such cruelty. No religion in the world allows this and Islam gives more respect and honour to women then the rest. Women in ... Read More

I wish not to share this dreadful story with you all but this is just to inform everyone where and whom to contact for reporting cyber crimes in Pakistan. On one hand it gave me immense pleasure to meet my old friends after decades through facebook, a social networking site known to all. But the  shock and sadness which results in ugly instances like the one reported by 'The News' overshadows ..... Kindly note that public can report such cases to ... Read More

The research work carried out by a young Pakistani particle physicist Jamil Aslam and two of his team members — Ahmed Ali and Christian Hambrock — received acclamation from the physics community as its results may lead to the discovery of a “new form of matter”. Jamil Aslam is a faculty member of Physics Department at Quaid-i-Azam University (QAU), while the other two physicists are working in Deutsches Elektronen Synchrotron (DESY), the biggest German research centre for particle physics. He and his ... Read More

In olden times the Kings used to build forts for themselves. Forts protected by armies of men. They made walled cities. Even now our presidents and prime minsters enjoy huge protection. It seems ones' insecurity increases as you reach up the ladder of authority. USA is supposed to be the most powerful country in the world and they have the greatest security concerns. Their concerns have restricted even their own lives. A new law is being proposed in the US which ... Read More

On watching this picture my son exclaimed "Poor pelican! They can't fly, can't breate or eat! Its my favorite bird." The oil well under water is still leaking 20,000 to 40,000 barrels per day since the April 20 rig explosion that killed 11 workers and set the disaster in motion. This is a threatening situation for fish,  sea birds and other wildlife. I wish humans are more careful and thoughtful. These birds faced an attack from an unseen enemy. My heart ... Read More

This news may bring a smile on your face too that a  "Pakistani" pigeon is held by Indian Police on suspision of spying for Pakistan. Indians better start  issuing visas to pigeons, goats, cows and crows! It requires very high level of intelligence to catch a bird spy which is seen in Indians only. The funniest part is that the bird is not allowed to have any visitors but in this hot weather it can enjoy Indian hospitability in an aircontioned ... Read More

Bombs kill !! Should we celebrate making a bomb? Lets have a look at the other nations who have this ability. This elite group does not include any poor, weak, underdeveloped and uneducated country. They are all "powerful" and developed countries. But Pakistan entered this club after their nuclear tests in 1998 in reply to Indian explosions . That made Pakistan the seventh nuclear nation of the world and first Muslim state equipped with deadly arsenal. People argue why should we possess them ... Read More

Faisal Shahzad Succeeded in Destroying the Image of Every Pakistani I sat down with my breakfast and laid my eyes on the newspaper a few days ago. There was a picture of a young model like man on the front page. Such pictures appear when a huge advertisement campaign uses the front page too but on a closer look I realised it was a serious news. This was Faisal Shahzad who became a known face overnight but all for wrong reasons. ... Read More

Many people have started saying that Pakistan should not have banned facebook but I think after  reporting the  page to the Facebook we had no other option left. This will not be a lifetime  ban but was meant to say "we are hurt". On the other hand this page may not have got so much publicity in the first place if muslims would not have responded to it. But we made it a point to spread it among us like fire. ... Read More
