Damage control, certainly....and a policy shift, too?? Perhaps...

Pakistan's neo-colonial client ruling apparatus carried out a massive damage control exercise over the latest US Drone attack, on Datta Khel in North Waziristan Agency, that killed 45 tribal maliks. This was clearly damage control, as just one day prior to this attack, the Pakistani regime and its key army intelligence agency had engineered the deal in which imprisoned CIA operative Raymond Davis, who was being held in connection with the murder of two Pakistanis - was released in exchange for a huge amount of Islamic "blood money" totalling $2.3 million, paid to the relatives of the murdered victims and others involved in brokering this deal....The two men Davis had shot in panic, were apparently Pakistani secret agents who had been "tailing" him for quite some time. They too were armed, and he mistook them for robbers, it is said.

But the coming of the Datta Khel drone attack so fast on the heels of this most unpopular release was considered as adding fuel to an already raging fire; may be the Americans also did it in the kind of infantile fits of flamboyant arrogance for which they are so infamous - which is why their neo-colonial proteges, who have governed Pakistan since its creation 64 years ago - were not only take aback, but they had to think of defending themselves against mounting public reaction too. In any way, it seems that the inevitable systemic and social pressures - generated in the US-Pakistan patron-client relationship since its first malfunction in 2001 (9/11) - and which both have been desperately trying to contain since then, are making their way out, and are ripping this unholy and dirty nexus apart too. A US attorney (in Virginia) rightly said in 1997 - in remarks made during the Aimal Kansi shooting trial - that the Pakistani ruling classes are people who will gladly sell their mothers for $200 (as they did then, when they turned in US fugitive Pakistani Aimal Kansi to the US) - but if they now try to prevent their nexus with their US masters from tearing, their efforts will be in vain. This simply isn't that time anymore.

Now, Pakistan's Pashtun tribals have threatened to fight the US and avenge their blood spilt in such drone attacks......but this is actually a reiteration of continuing a fight that has already been going on for the last ten years - the fight of the Taliban (who are Pashtun tribals) against the US in Afghanistan and Pakistan's FATA and KP Province areas - so that announcement is not really any news at all, but just a fresh reiteration of resolve!

If the Americans were not such hypocrites and supporters of corruption and the corrupt globally, I would commend their FATA Tribal drone strikes. They sure know how to take the crap out of those who need it! But in the shameless role that they are now playing on the world stage, the Americans have reduced themselves to something lower than even Pathan (Pashtun) tribesmen......Americans themselves promote the ills they fight. They got their man Davis released through the use of the same Sharia law that they are striving to fight elsewhere (that is the basis for the excuse of their whole fight against the Taliban and Al-Qaeda). It is such base attributes as these, that will soon effectively seal the fate of this otherwise great nation and world power, and deservedly so. They think that because they are "on top", they have the right to do anything they wish. Such assumptions of theirs, might have to do with the lowly social origins of the majority of those otherwise hard-working and ingenious European people who settled America and created it. Or rather, it is more likely that their free-wheeling individualist "democratic" system and outlook that are responsible for it; the people of the Soviet Union were from the same lowly proletarian origins, but they had a tightly controlled system, that permitted no nonsense....but it went to the other extreme, and in the end - no extremes are good.......

THE DECLINE OF PAKISTAN'S NEOCOLONIAL STATE

The "Jinnah crowd" is my term for that strange motley that claim equal, if contradictory allegiance to modern Western habits and fundamentalist Islam......their description lies outside the scope of what I am writing, but in the present age, their assertions regarding the original purpose behind Pakistan's creation have grown......in the form of a vague, piteous whimper, that Pakistan was not meant for Islamic fundamentalism.......Whatever such types may say, but the fact is that the sole justification for creating Pakistan was in the name of Islam only....though it took a full 30 years after 1947 for that virulent essence to surface, emerging and expressing itself fully in this state and society - and when it did, it was so destructive, that its first casualty was the eradication of the state support structures that had nurtured and enabled it in the first place.....

Let us begin. After the first decade of Pakistan's existence, a basic characteristic of its state's nature surfaced, and came to the fore - the need by the Pakistani State, of the Army for its continued existence - in 1958. Then, within the first 25 years of Pakistan's existence, another "correction" manifested itself: the separation of the non-feudal Bengali East Pakistan wing (now Bangladesh) from the basically feudal neocolonial Pakistani State - in a baptism of fire and blood in 1971.....

Any dispassionate, accurate and profound analysis will tell one - that the decay of the Pakistani neocolonial state set in with the start of its Islamisation- Jihadi phase, both of which began in around 1978 with the advent of Ziaul Haq's rule, and the Marxist coup in Afghanistan - which outlasted Zia's death in 1988 until the spring of 1992, when both the Soviet Bloc and the Marxist Afghan regime collapsed. These were processes that were orchestrated by a coterie of drunken Pakistani generals - and they were processes that effectively did away with whatever European character Pakistan's British Indian neocolonial state had, reverting it to a new, faux form of its pre-British Central Asian Islamic roots....giving rise to a feverish "neofeudal" culture dominated by elitist jungle rule that stemmed from the arrival in this state-social milieu of the easily available big money and resources and the ruthless attitudes needed for the Jihad......

This runaway process accelerated with the arrival of the Benazir Bhutto Regime II government in 1993; so lethal was it, that its own President had to remove it at the end of 1996.....corruption now became a "national issue" for the first time in Pakistani politics.....but in February 1997, with the arrival of the "replacement" the Nawaz Sharif II Regime, the onset of the decay of Pakistan's neocolonial state effectively came out into the open: the flour scarcity/degradation crisis of 1997, followed in early 1998 by the first signs of Pakistani Talibanisation in Angoor Adda (South Waziristan), the smashing of TV sets in Mir Ali Bazar (North Waziristan) and the domination of various areas of Orakzai Tribal Agency by Pakistani Taliban - all signs of which pointed in the general direction of where Pakistan, its state, its US sponsored gangster neofeudal ruling elites and its degraded and ramshackle society were all headed........this applied to those with the eyes to see, and the ears to hear, however.

It was this state of affairs of breakdown that actually prompted general Musharraf to overthrow Nawaz Sharif's Regime II in October 1999 - whatever "spin doctors" and twisted politicians lying through their rotten teeth may otherwise say. And although he managed to delay the onset of this decay somewhat, he ended up in refuelling it and unleashing it with a renewed ferocity, as was evident at the end of his rule in 2007. Zardari, or Bhutto Regime III, which succeeded Musharraf in 2008 - has absolutely no pretensions about "seeing through" or completing this process of decay, because nothing else is now left for anyone to do here - even the once mighty army, the final arbitrator of all things and problems Pakistani, is now helpless in the face of this malaise - of its own major creation, which has now metastatised into a full-blown Taliban insurgency and social, economic and structural breakdown in the terminal stages.

Had Musharraf tried seriously in 2000, he might have accomplished something - had he destroyed and put both the Nawaz and Bhutto "democratic" cliques to the death that each deserved, but it is still very doubtful to assert that - as he lacked the wherewithal for such a venture, and his Western patrons would have had none of such " dictatorial nonsense".....his army too, would have to be purged of its "jihadi fervour", an impossible task.....

Such a task would be daunting by any standards: there exists a thoroughly criminalised elite, bureacracies civil and military, and polity - not to mention an oversized, inferior and similarly criminalised population of teeming millions, for most of whom only the maximum punishment would suffice.....so this is not a "conventional" job in any way at all; certainly not for "democrats"....it is a job served only by an Antichrist....the problem here is SPIRITUAL in nature, not economic or political, the way the materialist paradigms of the European Renascence have so far been dictating for 500 years.

The past 20 years of American-led Western supremacy in the world have also proven unprecedentedly harmful: an untold number of Pakistanis, who abused and misused power at home, and stole funds and resources, have found safety and refuge in all Western European countries - particularly in emigrating, besides Britain, to the English-speaking, artificially settled lands that I call the WASTE (White Anglo Saxon Trash Establishments) countries of the USA, Australia, Canada and New Zealand). That has to be kept in mind for future retributive reference, as it is a grave injustice that can never be dismissed out of hand. Even those of them who haven't stolen anything, but have just fled to or settled in better climes, are criminally culpable of dereliction and desertion of duty and responsibility, and before my eyes, stand in the same ranks as their robber and thief counterparts.....

Only Stalinist measures could have worked, yet this was both the wrong place, as well as the wrong time in history for that......this was a problem, that was due to show its own results only now, for its own unique purpose in global destiny - which will soon be manifested in about two years' time.......some Antichrist will appear, some solution will have to be found, no matter how gargantuan - that is the only surety present here. And in two years, we will know about that also, however improbable it seems.....

THIS IS WHAT I FEEL LIKE.....

Pashtuns this, Pashtuns that, Pashtuns the other......

It makes one sick; but not the repetition as much as the hypocrisy and spin that is involved.....Let us take but one example: Pakistan's shameless Punjabi propaganda machine, in order to outdo its US puppet rival Karzai's regime - has taken up the cause of Pashtuns and their representation in Afghanistan......we hear complaints, moans and minges going on, that Pashtuns have been deliberately sidelined, neglected, discriminated against in Afghanistan....yes, true - and I think it is justified too. Not only has the non-Pashtun population increased in number collectively, but they are qualitatively better people too. Pashtuns should prove that they are progressive, educated, disciplined, law abiding and loyal, and they will automatically get their place in society. Now, whatever it is they are getting, is what they really deserve. Yet our people lack the capacity of self-criticism, even if it for the sake of their own continued survival and betterment.

What image does a Pashtun conjure up now, on both sides of the Durand Line? An uncouth, Neanderthal type, and bad mannered boor, who keeps on spitting, and who doesn't give a shit for anyone, including his own Pashtun brother or cousin (does anyone know "Tarboorwali"?) - wearing a turban,.....a religious fanatic who treats women as half-human chattel, and does what he can to prevent their education and their right to vote......and kills them on the slightest suspicion, even those who are not his wives, but sisters or daughters too (yes, wives, not wife....); a rough, corrupt man, who only obeys his crude tribal custom, and tribal Islam - and bribes his way through life, through courts, and smuggles for a living, and thinks nothing of doing so - and is fit only for other lowly menial jobs like a guard or a trucker, a rubbish boy, a tea boy or a polish boy......a foul-mouthed, rowdy, jealous, treacherous backstabber and egotist thug, who shoots others dead on the slightest pretext, and who drives on the wrong side of the road, thinks nothing of taking illegal shortcuts, and parks his car in the middle of the road, not even giving a piss for the others behind him........and whose liking for young boys can never be quenched.

Such people, nay races, have to be sidelined , if not done away with for good - as they represent a force for corruption and social degradation in the world, to others.......as we have seen even in the tinpot society of Pakistan, since 1979....and sadly, they are not even a percentage, or even majority of their society; they represent its totality! Good Pashtun people may be .01% and that is no exaggeration....

This is the age of American liberalism, in which all kinds of nonsense has a "right" to exist and to be heard, and can be tolerated......but, thankfully it won't be, once America (soon) bites the dust....then I would like to see whether Pashtuns are just sidelined, or whether more effective treatment awaits this society of rascals, these thugs, these vipers......

People say that the PDPA was the best Party to rule Afghanistan? Perhaps, by Afghan standards.....but hardly, I would say. Even so the Parchamis were much more better. Remember the Pashtun and rural Khalqis? It was the cunning and power hungry Pashtun Amin who treacherously did away with his "great teacher" and "elder", the Pashtun Taraki.....food for thought.
