How MQM works in Karachi by Dr Arif Alvi
Posted By: Usman_Khalid Created On: 21/May/2013 Views: 1170 Replies: 0 
Karachi was a city of lights until nearly 30 years back when MQM started showing its true face. I will tell you how MQM works and I have experienced all of this myself. This is a very well-managed organisation, which works under a tight command and control mechanism. They have divided Karachi into a number of sectors; each sector is divided into units. The first tier is called the unit. There are Click here to read Full Article

Games Played by the MQM in Karachi by By Usman Khalid
Posted By: Usman_Khalid On: 15/May/2013 Views:973 Replies:0 
After the overthrow of Nawaz Sharif Government by General Musharraf in 1999, the real rulers of Pakistan have been the MQM. It is no coincidence that the Sindh province has had the same Governor – Dr Ishrat al Ibad – who is the nominee of MQM Leader Altaf Hussain, during Musharraf as well as Zardari rule. It is no coincidence that the caretaker Chief Minister is also a Mohajir. It has been a part Click here to read Full Article
US, Kayani in tandem to keep out Nawaz Sharif by M K Bhadrakumar

The article below, written by a former Indian diplomat, suggests that Nawaz Sharif (NS), who is ahead in the polls, may not make it after all. His thesis is wishful thinking but there is a real danger that NS may repeat the mistake made by Prime Minister Junejo in negotiating a settlement in Afghanistan when the Soviet forces withdrew. Mr Junejo was driven by his desire to show who the boss was. N Click here to read Full Article
 
Pakistan’s Precipitous Decline by WILLIAM MILAM
Posted By: Usman_Khalid On: 6/May/2013 Views:1452 Replies:0 
(There is quiet satisfaction in Washington and London that Pakistanis themselves are ready to take the blame for what is being called the ‘unravelling of Pakistan’. But there is an alternative view of the situation. After having targeted the state institutions of Pakistan particularly the armed forces for nearly a decade, the very same unseen forces have turned their guns on the enemies of the sta Click here to read Full Article

2013 Elections: price to pay for ignoring Kashmir and Afghanistan by Usman Khalid
Posted By: Usman_Khalid On: 1/May/2013 Views:1135 Replies:0 
General Elections in Pakistan are due to be held on 11 May. The election campaign is in full swing but it is a campaign with a difference. Everything of importance to the future of Pakistan is being completely ignored by all political parties. The top national objective of Pakistan is the ‘liberation of Jammu and Kashmir’ and the top security threat to Pakistan is from the impending explosion in A Click here to read Full Article

General Musharraf often talked about the benefits of ‘unity of command’ that held him high in his perch in power for nine years.

The following message is being circulated on the Internet that reveals the truth about General Musharraf.I am passing on the message because I agree with it. I hope that the political class will take note that they are next in line and that the segments of the media and the judiciary are complicit in actions and statements that direct the wrath of the nation from the person of Musharraf to the ins Click here to read Full Article
 
Who will win the Elections in Pakistan? by Usman Khalid
Posted By: Usman_Khalid On: 17/Apr/2013 Views:1044 Replies:0 
The forthcoming elections are very important because these are the first taking place in an environment of constitutional checks and balance working satisfactorily. That does not mean that parliamentary democracy has started to work as well in Pakistan as in the UK – the country on which Pakistan has modelled its political and judicial system. But there is an air of optimism in Pakistan because th Click here to read Full Article
Air Commodore M.M.Alam (1935-2013) – A Tribute by Brig. (R) Usman Khalid
Posted By: Usman_Khalid On: 20/Mar/2013 Views:1491 Replies:0 
This is the third time I am writing a tribute for a departed friend. The first time it was the death of an icon – Mr Justice Safdar Shah – when I wrote under the title of ‘Death of Hope’. The legal fraternity did not rise up against General Zia ul Haq at that time in response to the call of Mr Justice Safdar Shah. But it did rise to the occasion in 2007-2009 when General Musharraf dismissed the Ch Click here to read Full Article
