Samiul Haq supports Kalabagh Dam London-based Dr Shahid Masood was quoted by Insaf as saying that in Pakistan very strange alignments were taking place. While the MMA was completely opposed to General Musharraf and parties aligned to him like PPP Sherpao group were not able to support Kalabagh Dam, Maulana Samiul Haq had suddenly decided to go along with General Musharraf and back his scheme of building the Kalabagh Dam. He said the PPP was opposed but the enemy of Musharraf, the Nawaz League, was in favour of it. It sounds like Sami has been weaned away from the MMA, iâm sure his price wasnât too high. We will settle with them! Jamaat Islami leader Munawwar Hassan told Khabrain magazine that âweâ will have to settle with the lobby that is asking the government to recognise Israel. He said friendship with Israel was tantamount to nursing a snake in oneâs cuff. He said now Hindu lobby was emerging at the side of the Jewish lobby. Whip these women! According to daily Pakistan chairman of Womenâs hockey is not âobsceneâ! According to Khabrain, former federal minister and president of Womenâs Hockey Federation in Pakistan Ms Shahida Jameel said that Council for Islamic Ideology was wrong in saying that womenâs hockey was spreading obscenity in the country. She said the Council should instead say something about stopping the spread of narcotics in Pakistan. Courts against Islam? Writing in Insaf Maulana Abdur Rasheed Arshad said that a judge of the Sindh High Court had recently passed a judgement giving equal share in inheritance to a woman while there is a clear edict in the Quran that she should receive half a share. He said the judge while quoting the UN Declaration of Universal Human Rights violated the charter of the Quran. He said the UN was a slave girl of the Jews and could not be in favour of the Muslims. |

#6 On the other hand, I have to side with the Council about women's hockey. There's just something so wrong about giving women wooden clubs. |

#5 She said the Council should instead say something about stopping the spread of narcotics in Pakistan. -I think they're gonna throw her in prison for making too much sense. He said the UN was a slave girl of the Jews and could not be in favour of the Muslims. -The big "Joo" conspiracy rears its ugly head again. These guys need to start looking in the mirror for the source of their problems. |

#4 what could an optimist glean from the above 1. The MMA is divided 2. There is a lobby in Pakistan that wants Pakistan to recognize Israel 3.Pakistan has fashion models who walk on catwalks 4.Pakistan has Women's hockey 5. Pakistan has at least one judge who is willing to override sharia on a case of inheritance law. Not quite a 100% loony county after all? |

#1 He said that such women excited men to commit sin. And we all know that the average Paki man is easily excited to commit sin. |
