Another Tax, And Some Socrates…

Wednesday, July 1st, 2009

A judge charged a man with a Rs 10,800 fine in a rape case.

The man asked, “Why Rs 10,800?”

The judge replied, “Rs 10,000 for rape and 8% Entertainment Tax by Zardari.”

******

In ancient Greece (469 – 399 BC), Socrates was widely lauded for his wisdom.

One day the great philosopher came upon an acquaintance who ran up to him excitedly and said, “Socrates, do you know what I just heard about one of your students?”

“Wait a moment,” Socrates replied. “Before you tell me I’d like you to pass a little test. It’s called the Test of Three.”

“Test of Three?”

“That’s right,” Socrates continued. “Before you talk to me about my student let’s take a moment to test what you’re going to say. The first test is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true?”

“No,” the man said, “actually I just heard about It.”

“All right,” said Socrates. “So you don’t really know if it’s true or not. Now let’s try the second test, the test of Goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about my student something good?”

“No, on the contrary…”

“So,” Socrates continued, “you want to tell me something bad about him even though you’re not certain it’s true?”

The man shrugged, a little embarrassed.

Socrates continued. “You may still pass though, because there is a third test – the filter of Usefulness. Is what you want to tell me about my student going to be useful to me?”

“No, not really.”

“Well,” concluded Socrates, “if what you want to tell me is neither True nor Good nor even Useful, why tell it to me at all?”

The man was defeated and ashamed. This is the reason Socrates was a great philosopher and held in such high esteem.

It also explains “why he never found out that his wife was regularly having Sex with his student Plato.”

Step forward for your Muslim Brothers!

Thursday, March 19th, 2009

This a call for all those who condemn violence in the name of Islam. The atrocities by Taliban in Parachinar urge us to take strict action. We shouldn’t stand silent while our Muslim brothers and sisters are brutally killed. For centuries, innocent lives have been taken on account of what their beliefs are. None have the right to punish anyone for their beliefs. It is not for us to judge others in matters of religion. For once we should condemn those who act like God in their ways and kill people. The Shia community is an integral part of the Muslim world. The differences in opinion between the sects doesn’t certify such barbarism. Our beloved Prophet (P.B.U.H) never taught about sects but emphasized unity among the UMMAH. In the teachings of the Prophet (P.B.U.H) and the word of Quran we are all but united. There is no reason strong enough to tolerate the massacre.

The silence of media authorities is condemnable. However this shouldn’t stop us from spreading the word. I urge all those in the Blogosphere to spread the word on the blog. You can repost or link back but keep spreading the word.

At the end of the day what ever sect/religion we may belong to we are indeed answerable to our lord. No religion or belief instructs such barbarism. I also call upon Human Rights Organizations such as Amnesty International to help spread a global wave of awareness. Being a member I urge the authroties to take notice of this barbarism and give it an international platform. The massacre taking place by the Talbans needs international exposure. Please sign the petition herewith and spread the word. You can write letters to Human Right Organizations to help us spread the word and increase international Pressure on the authorities.

STOP THE HOLOCAUST IN PARACHINAR!

To:  The Cheif Justice of Pakistan, Media Authorities, United Nations

A request on behalf of the Global Muslim community to take action against the massacre of Shia’s in Parachinar. For decades now innocent lives have been taken in the name of religion. We feel deeply appalled and request an end to this barbarism. The Global Muslim Community strongly condemns such actions. We as Muslims stand united against such killings. We consider it our sole right to protect our Muslim brothers in need.

We request all those in authorities to take strict action regarding this. It is indeed shocking to witness media’s silence on the issue. No one should have the right to take innocent lives for their vain agendas. We acknowledge that such killings are against the essence of Islam. Those responsible for such killings should be punished and strongly condemned.

By signing this petition we pledge herewith to support our Muslim brothers in what ever ways possible. It is time to put an end to violence. Islam teaches us respect and tolerance. We condemn barbaric activities conducted for vested interest and have nothing to do with Islam. We ask for immediate actions by :

  • Removal of Taliban terrorists from Hangu-Parachinar Road and its opening to all travelers irrespective of their sect.
  • Accountabilty of all those responsibe for the killings
  • A well-deserved media coverage to the event highlighting the atrocities.

Our Shia brothers have equal rights to exist and believe. The Muslim majority respects co-existence. We condemn those who justify their actions in the name of Islam. For Islam teaches us tolerance and Unity.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned

Pro-Pakistan

Teer Toota, Sher Aaya…Bhaingay Ke Saath

Monday, March 16th, 2009

In the last few days, we saw enough chaos throughout Pakistan (at least on Geo TV) to believe that the end of the PPP government was near. The bald lion with hair implants and no balls, was leading the long march towards the capital to crap on the Constipation Constitution Avenue, and ultimately on the country. The government set up many hurdles from Karachi to Islamabad and all over the country to try to keep the capital city clean (it’s far easier than the sanitary work required after any long march).

But the marchers were not to be stopped. The laxative of “foreign exchange” imported from India, and that locally manufactured in Raiwind, was forcing them to keep going. One guy had it so bad that he took his pants off on the way and Express News made live coverage of the incident, breaking the record “We Report First” streak of Geo News.


Since it began, the lawyers’ movement has been a cause of great instability in Pakistan. Yes you read that right, asshole! If it’s responsible for bringing democracy to Pakistan, Musharraf’s resignation, etc then it’s also responsible for the increase in terrorism, decline in economy, moral decline (see video above) and the Mumbai attacks. Okay, that’s outside Pakistan. How about the Marriott bombing?

Lawyers never questioning the motives of Nawaz Sharif in his stand for the independence of judiciary, when he is guilty of having it attacked in his last tenure as PM of Pakistan, makes me doubt the credibility of their own stand as well. Even the media forgot about it. So as I see it, all this support for Chauhdry comes from liars and hypocrites, and those fooled by them. As for Nawaz, we can all see that he’s using the lawyer’s movement to joyride into the PM house. Or the presidency. That is, if Zardari leaves. Speaking about Zardari, see this.

Throughout this comical episode, many promises were made.

Welcome back, Mr. Chauhdry, it’s time to stand up to your claims. So wipe that smile off your face and get to work. And get a toilet paper roll too because if you don’t live up to your talk, the real citizens of this country are coming to make you shit your pants.
