Jihadis who had taken part in Afghan Jihad against the Soviet forces were from Pakistan, mostly from FATA and settled areas of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP). Jihadis from Arab, African and Central Asian countries refused to return back to their countries of origin after the successful culmination of Jihad since they were not welcomed back.

The installed capacity in Pakistan is about equal to the demand of electricity and yet load shedding of electricity and also of gas is becoming worse by the day. Why? It is because the politicians who are supposed to make policy and oversee its execution have a very poor attention span and are unable to ask the right question to nail the lies they are told by the electricity-gas mafia on daily bas

After half of a century of the military rule, martial laws, broken dreams of democracy and freedom, dismantled public institutions and continued disconnected governance by thugs and crime riddled people like Zardari and his gangsters, how should the world view the Pakistani nation – its moral norms, political culture and integrity? What tragic picture comes out of the widely corrupt social and pol

War against the Soviets produced Jihadis in Pakistan. Most of the Jihadis who took part in Afghan Jihad were from FATA and some parts of settled areas of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) like Malakand.

A person who turns behind to look is considered of stone and people step over, to cross whosoever stops. Within this world is a country Pakistan by name that is running a backward race forgetting all obligations to humanity.

HISTORY has been made this month in this much maligned country. A democratic process of elections went through without the usual rash of violence or indiscriminate bombings that would have turned the whole thing into a farce.
