A plot to replace Pakistan’s President Pervez Musharraf with the nuclear engineer who sold the country’s secrets to America’s self-avowed enemies is being organized by politico-religious leaders, said one of the leaders present at a recent meeting of religious and political parties.
| Oh boy! Plots! Deep-laid plots!™ |
After U.S. and British intelligence services confronted Musharraf with the evidence of an international mail-order business for nuclear weapons secrets run by Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan, the father of Pakistan’s nuclear bomb made a full confession on national television. But A.Q., as the country’s most popular man is known, was allowed to keep all his ass assets, including lavish homes in Pakistan and Dubai. A.Q. Khan is a religious fundamentalist with a penchant for the good life. As a national icon, he shares co-equal status with Jinnah, Pakistan’s founder. The secret meeting to promote Dr. Khan as Musharraf’s successor took place in Akora Khattak upon the death of the wife of Senator Sami ul-Haq, Vice President of MMA, a coalition of six politico-religious parties, said one of the politicians present who requested his name be withheld.
"Mahmoud! Whatta ya doin' here?"
"I know nothink, and you don't know me! Now shaddup!" |
The mastermind promoting A.Q. Khan’s candidacy was his close friend Gen. Hamid Gul, a former head of Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence agency who is "strategic adviser" to MMA. Gul and most of the country’s politico-religious leaders journeyed to Khattak to present their condolences to Sami ul-Haq. Sami is also the President of Jamiat-e-Ulema-e-Islam, an extremist party, and Chancellor of the University for the Education of Truth. The University, where nine out of Taliban’s top 10 leaders were educated, is located in Khattak where the secret meetings took place in late February.
Apparently other activities take place at the madrassa, between the Mullahs and the young boys enrolled.
Gen. Gul, according to one of the participants, explained how he was assembling "a strong team of faithful Muslims to take control of the country to enrich themselves serve the nation and the Muslim world with true Islamic spirit." Gul then added, "A.Q. is our natural leader."
A corrupt lunatic, sounds like Gul’s soul mate
| A.Q. can wear the bejeweled turban, and Gul can be the right-hand man. |
The UPI informant strongly doubts ISI reported this meeting to Musharraf "though they must have known about it as the University is where ISI recruited some of its best agents when Pakistan was helping its Taliban ally in Afghanistan." Hamid Gul frequently expresses strong anti-American views in Pakistani newspapers. He has accused Musharraf of "selling out" to the United States and "betraying" Pakistan’s national interest. |
