NNI: Member National Assembly Maulana Azam Tariq Sunday announced his new political party âMillat-e-Islamia Pakistan.' Maulana Azam Tariq, a chief of banned Sipah Sehaba Pakistan and also who contested October last year election from the jail, has announced that the newly formed party headed by Maulana Ali Shair Haideri, would be working for making Pakistan a real Islamic Welfare country. âThe decision of making Millat-e-Islamia Pakistan has been taking in a meeting held on April 19 in KhairpureâSindh. Where thousands of Pakistani clerics, students, intellectuals, writers and others discussed and deliberated for as many as 19 hours,â Azam said.
| So Haideri's going to be the legit face of the party, while Tariq is the power in the party. One can only imagine the amount of gunfire that must have been required for "thousands" of Pak clerics, students, etc., to discuss and deliberate for as long as 19 hours. The carnage must have been breath-taking... |
Maulana Azam Tariq has been elected convener of the newly announced religious political entity with six conveners throughout the country including one for Azad Jammu and Kashmir. âThe entire process of the newly formed political entity would complete its process of manifesto, party constitution and the units in the country by May 15. Following which a membership campaign will be launched,â Azam said.
"Y'wanna join the party or you wanna kick in for the membership fund?"
"How 'bout neither?"
"How 'bout Mahmoud breaks yer knees?"
"The membership fund, I think..." |
Six conveners of the party are named as Dr. Khadim Hussein Dhaloo, Khalifa Abdul Qayyum, Syed Pir Ali Shah Bokhari, Maulana Mohammad Ahmed Ludhanvi, Dr. Mehmoud Ahmed Ghaznavi and Allam Masoud-ur-Rehman Usmani. The convener of Punjab is named as Maulana Abdul Khaliq Rehmani, Sindh Allam Badr 0ul-Din Chishti, Balochistan Haji Mohammad Rafiq, NWFP Haji Ghulam Mustafa and Mufti Abdul Wahid would be performing as convener of Azad Kashmir and Northern Areas. The provincial conveners would be setting up bodies at district level and would also be nominating their assistants in the provinces. The districts conveners would be nominating city and tehsil level conveners and who would make their level bodies. After completing the process as mentioned, a convention of the party would be convene for the approval of the party manifesto.
| Betcha at least 2/3 of the guys on that list show up in the news in the next years associated in some way with acts of violence... |
The party will be working for harmony amongst all the sects of Islam in Pakistan and will be projecting main objective of paying regard to all the sects. Azam condemned killings in the name of sectarianism âreligion, especially Islam teaches a lesion of passion, tolerance and respect for all other religions.â He said that the government should find out the root causes of sectarian violence in the country âand having done that should legislate in the parliament to prevent such violence.â
| As far as I've been able to tell, the root causes of sectarian violence in Pakland have lain with groups like Sipah and Lashkar e-Jhangvi. Azam calling for peace and tolerance among sects would be a pretty funny joke, if not for all those corpses. |
