Marathon organisers will be thrown in River Kabul: Siraj
2005-04-12
"Hrarrr! Make 'em walk the plank, Mister Muslim!"
PESHAWAR: A marathon will not be allowed in the NWFP and those trying to organise the race will be thrown in River Kabul, NWFP Senior Minister Sirajul Haq said on Monday.
"We ain't havin' none o' that sin and debauchery here, by Gar!"
He was addressing a public meeting at Pabbi in Nowshera District after distributing princely largesse compensation cheques among people affected by floods. "The Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) government will prevent acts of obscenity in the province as per the desire of the masses," he said.
"Them wimmin got titties! We know they do! They just wanna get out there an' seduce men! 'At's all they think about! You can tell, 'cuz they got them titties..."
Siraj said the federal government was not taking interest in compensating the victims, rather hallow slogans and lip service was being done in this respect. The NWFP senior minister said the recent wave of inflation, including the increase in petroleum prices, had created unrest among the public and they had resorted to agitation due to the centre's flawed policies. He said the enlightenment policy of President General Pervez Musharraf was creating various social evils in the country that posed direct challenge to the religious and cultural values of the people. He said that giving women the right to lead prayers as was done in the US recently was an anti-Islamic act that was hurting the feelings of the ummah. He said the MMA would not allow such shameful acts in Pakistan.
"We're on to their games! People who don't wind their turbans tight enough don't notice that stuff, but we do! An' we ain't gonna stand for it!"

I suggest this, this, this, this, this, and finally this are varieties of the (so far: 51-48) uncommon American Loon. Just for starters.
