#2 Sounds like a rockin' New Years in Lahore. Prolly empty out Vegas, unless those Lahore actresses come here to show their bodies. And yumm, posh decadence. The author of this piece is drunk on his best dramatic inner voice...

#3 drunk on his best dramatic inner voice...
I don't have a clue about the syntax of Urdu but perhaps this is the language's normal inflection...dramatic... or perhaps that's how the Urdu translator thinks English sounds... Dramtic.

#4
Major (Retd) Amir Afzal wrote .... that it should ... convert the population of Pakistan into Hizbullah and use the big weapons with great care. All the foot-soldiers should be converted into shroud-wearing mujahideen ready to make night raids against the enemy. The entire nation should have one gun each and become a great flood of warriors to make Pakistan a castle of Islam

How come this guy retired as only a major. He's a strategy genius!

#5 The reason he wasn't promoted to general is because he fails to state the obvious: in the name of what Pakistan should spend life and treasure in order to get more suckers travelling to Mecca and making the Saudis richer?
