Young Men Killed in Action in Vain

Dr Hamid Hussain is my very dear friend.

He has stood by me and helped me morally and materially and I am under heavy debt of all that he did for me.

He is a sensitive man and keeps on sending me his articles and these obituaries.

My only question is that these young men have been killed because Pakistans hopeless generals and politicians decided to fight USA's war against USSR from 1954.

Why did the clown Zia decided to fight the proxy US and Saudi Afghan war for lust of US Dollars ?

Why was this region militarised.

I dont question US policy because USA is paying hard cash to Pakistans highly corrupt politicians to fight this so called war.

As I see Pakistan is the South Vietnam now and will become a big strategic liability for the world when the Islamic Extremists become more more and more powerful.Or is that the real US strategic aim to then denuclearise Pakistan.

As I see the whole US strategy is flawed.In Afghanistan and Pakistan.It is creating more problems than solving.

God knows what will become of Pakistan.The choice is between Somalia and Yugoslavia.

A country led by crooks and swindlers of the worst order surely deserves this fate ?

I will request Dr Hamid Hussain to address this question of mine.

Captain Omer Zeb Afzal


Captain Omerzeb was from 111th PMA Long Course. He was commissioned in 9 Azad Kashmir Regiment (AK).

He was deployed in Lower Dir on May 11, 2009 as part of the military operation named ‘Rah-e-Rast’ against militants.

He called his fiancée at midnight of May 20-21 and wished her a very happy birthday. In six different languages he sang to her birthday song. She said to him, “I wish you were here on my birthday. I wish I could have celebrated my birthday with you.” And he replied, “Do you want me to come over? Should I come over to Rawalpindi in the morning and we celebrate your birthday together?” She said, yes, please, please do.” Few hours later, he was killed in a blast on May 21, 2009 at the age of 24. That day was the birthday of his fiancée.

He did come over as he promised but on the shoulders of soldiers and his coffin draped in Pakistani flag. He left this world on the same day that his beloved fiancée came to this world twenty three years earlier. His fiancée kept screaming, “You guys are lying to me. He is not dead. He cannot leave me. He promised to celebrate 93 birthdays with me. This was our first. He can’t leave me on our first birthday together; he promised me 93 birthdays together.”



Rose

If I should cease to bring a Rose

Upon a festal day,

‘Twill be because beyond the Rose

I have been called away….


If I should cease to take the names

My buds commemorate,

‘Twill be because death’s finger

Claps my murmuring lip.


Emily Dickinson (1830-1886)


Rest in peace Omerzeb. Our thoughts & prayers with his family and loved ones.

Hamid

He was due for home leave but was asked to lead a search operation against militants. Waqas was commanding three APCs and infantry troops from 6th Azad Kashmir (AK) Regiment. His convoy was ambushed and in a gun battle which lasted several hours, many soldiers were injured. After evacuating injured soldiers, Waqas ordered disengagement. In the meantime, another soldier was hit. Waqas jumped out of his APC, put injured soldier on his shoulders to get him inside APC when he was shot in the chest. He later died at the age of 24. He brought 15 of his injured soldiers back to safety but in the process gave the ultimate sacrifice.


When I Must Leave You

When I must leave you

For a little while;

Please do not grieve

And shed wild tears

And hug your sorrow

To you through the years.

But start out bravely

With a gallant smile;

And for my sake,

And in my name.

Live on and do

All things the same

Feed not your loneliness

On empty days.

But fill each waking hour

In useful ways.

Reach out your hand

In comfort and in cheer

And I in turn will comfort you

And hold you near;

And never, never

Be afraid to die,

For I’m waiting

For you in the sky.

Loving Memories by Unknown

Your gentle face and smile

With sadness we recall,

You had a kindly word for each

And died beloved by all.



The voice is mute and stilled the heart

That loved us well and true,

Ah, bitter was the trial to part

From so good as you.



You are not forgotten loved one

Nor will you ever be

As long as life and memory last

We will remember thee.



We miss you now, our hearts are sore,

As time goes by we miss you more,

Your loving smile, your gentle face,

No one can fill your vacant place.



Rest in peace Asim. Our thoughts and prayers with Asim’s family and loved ones.

Major Zia-ul-Haq

Major Zia-ul-Haq passed out from 95th PMA Long Course and joined 16 Baloch Regiment of Pakistan army. He was killed in action in recent operations. He passed out on May 14, 1995 and died in the same month in 2009.

Major Zia’s father died when Zia was only 18 month old. His widow mother raised him and after three decades the journey of her life came to a tragic cross road again. Major Zia’s son is six year old and daughter two and half year old. The old eyes of Zia’s mother are now looking at her daughter-in-law who has to travel on the same road lonely raising the next generation. Zia’s children have to grow up without father reliving the life of their dad.

Sacrifice

Few have sacrificed their life

To redeem the honor;

And to pay for the sins of others.

Indeed a heavy price;

The interest is paid by even the children of those gone with the wind.


Zia; Rest in peace. Our thoughts and prayers with the family.

Havaldar Qamar Ilyas & Sepoy Siddiq Akbar

Havaldar Qamar Ilyas was serving with elite Anti-Terrorist Squad and killed in action. He was from Sargodha and was married only ten days before his death. A young girl only had ten short happy days together with this young lad before he departed on a long journey.

Sepoy Siddiq Akbar was native of a small village of Babairai near Mardan. He was killed in action on May 06, 2009. He was married one year ago. One frame in his room shows two pictures; himself in uniform and his young bride in her chador. Memories of one short year will now be with this young bride for years to come.

These two wives of soldiers are from different ethnic backgrounds and live hundreds of miles away from each other but their pain is same. Tears rolling down their beautiful faces silently will be known to very few of their countrymen and life around them will go as normal but they will never again be normal.


Soldier’s Wife

I’ll light a candle in my window

Though I know you have gone too far;

And not coming back.

But I’ll keep that candle burning

Until we meet again in heavens.

Goodbye my beloved;

You know you are my true love.


Rest in peace Qamar & Siddiq Akbar. Our thoughts and prayers with the family and loved ones of Havaldar Qamar Ilyas & Sepoy Siddiq Akbar.

Captain Bilal Zafar Abbasi (1983-2009) – Lineages of Valor

He was commissioned in 42 Baloch (nick named al-Havi). Later, he joined elite Special Services Group (SSG). He was part of a SSG operation code named ‘Janbaz’ to clear heights occupied by militants in Peochar valley. SSG company led by Major Sardar was given the task of clearing Swat-Peochar road. Bilal’s team was assigned the task of clearing ‘Ghazano Sar’ top. Bilal was hit by a rocket launcher and killed in action on May 17, 2009 . The height is now named after him and called ‘Bilal Top’.

Bilal sent a text message from his cellular phone the night before his death to his colleague Captain Raheel which read, “in the roars of bullets, in the thunder of bombs, there are few who just do not stop….. knowing that they are surrounded by death….. knowing that they could leave their parents and family alone….. But they just keep on moving… because in their hearts and following through their veins known as ….. HONOUR, DEVOTION, LOVE WITH MOTHERLAND, DEATH BEFORE DISGRACE, PAKISTAN ARMY ZINDABAD”.

Bilal was from a family with long history of service in armed forces dating back a century. Bilal’s great grand father Subedar Lal Khan served in First World War and won George Cross. His grand father Tajjamal Hussain retired as Colonel and his father Zafar Tajjamal Abbasi was Captain in Pakistan army. Bilal’s maternal grandfather was Major Majeed. Bilal’s brother Captain Zawar Zafar Abbasi is also serving with SSG.

My Boy Jack (1916)

Have you news of my boy Jack?'
Not this tide.
'When d'you think that he'll come back?'
Not with this wind blowing, and this tide.

'Has any one else had word of him?'
Not this tide.
For what is sunk will hardly swim,
Not with this wind blowing, and this tide.

'Oh, dear, what comfort can I find?'
None this tide;
Nor any tide,
Except he did not shame his kind -
Not even with that wind blowing, and that tide.

Then hold your head up all the more,

This tide,
and every tide;
Because he was the son you bore,
And gave to that wind blowing and that tide!

Rudyard Kipling, 1916


Rest in peace Bilal. Our thoughts & prayers with Bilal’s family and loved ones.

Captain Meraj Muhammad Khan (1985-2009)

Captain Meraj was from the village of Garo Shah of Mardan. He got his early education from cadet college Razmak. He joined 112th Pakistan Military Academy (PMA) Long Course and passed out with the sword of honor. He was the first Razmian to win the sword of honor. After passing out from the academy, he was commissioned in 12th Cavalry (this is an old cavalry regiment which was formed with the amalgamation of two elite irregular cavalry regiments; 2nd Punjab Irregular Cavalry raised by Lieutenant Samuel Brown and 5th Punjab Irregular Cavalry raised by Captain Robert Fitzpatrick. 2nd became 22nd and 5th became 25th and 12th Cavalry emerged from amalgamation of 22nd and 25th. It was part of Frontier Force band of brothers. In 1937, 12th Cavalry became permanent training regiment of 2nd Indian Cavalry Group and taken out of order of battle. Pakistan brought 12th Cavalry back to the order of battle.

Meraj was a rising star of the Armored Corps but he volunteered for the paramilitary Frontier Corps (FC) N.W.F.P. He was part of the Special Operations Group (SOG) of FC. This is an elite unit which serves as a Rapid Reaction Force of FC. Meraj participated in many operations of SOG in Ambela Pass, Daggar and Sultanwas.

On June 04, 2009, a security convoy of police and FC was hit by an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) in Rustam near Mardan injuring many. SOG of FC led by Major Asad rushed to the spot and chased the militants. In the ensuing gun battle, policemen, FC personnel and army officers fought together and died together. Meraj was killed in this encounter. Others who sacrificed their lives in this encounter included Naik Ameer Hakim Chitrali, Havaldar Imran Ali Wazir and Sepoy Mehboob and Sepoy Nasrullah of FC, Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Fareed Hussain Bangash, Station House Officer (SHO) Sherullah Khan , Assistant Sub Inspector (ASI) Hanan Khan and two police constables; Laiq Shah & Nazir Khan.

Meraj was engaged on December 06, 2008 and was due to get married in October 2009. Meraj qualified for a special operations course in U.S. and was scheduled to leave on June 12. However, just a week before he embarked on a much longer journey. In a befitting manner, five brave men of FC who died together were given final goodbye together when their flag draped coffins were lined up for funeral prayers. All were from different areas of Pukhtunkhwa (Naik Ameer from Chitral, Havaldar Imran from Waziristan and Meraj from Mardan) and in an ironic twist their lives were cut short by their own who have been possessed by the devil. However, death has brought all these men honor. FC and nation should be proud of these men and if peace comes to the haunted lands of Pushtuns and Pakistan it will be due to the blood of these men who gave up everything to secure their homeland.

Born in Mardan; died in Mardan protecting his own folk. Rest in peace Meraj along with your comrades. Our thoughts & prayers with the family.

‘We challenged Death. He threw with weighted dice.

We laughed and paid the forfeit, glad to play-

Being recompensed beyond our sacrifice

With that nor Death nor Time can take away.’

Burning Man

Rod Serling

There is a sixth dimension,

beyond that which is known to man.

It is a dimension as vast as space

and as timeless as infinity.

It is the middle ground between light and shadow,

and it lies between the pit of man's fears

and the sunlight of his knowledge.

This is the dimension of imagination.

It is an area that might be called The Twilight Zone.

The Extraordinary Beard of Swaran Singh.

You must be wondering if this person Mai ever writes about nonSikh stuff. Yes, she does, occasionally, but not today.

Today she has just finished eating a 7-Layer Burrito (beans, rice, tomato, lettuce, cheese and guacamole all rolled up in a flour tortilla) drenched a Fire Sauce and drinking a liter of half-frozen water.


I am sitting here near Seattle on the hottest day ever recorded here. 104F, 340C. Not all that hot in Amritsar or Las Vegas, but deadly hot to these weak Seattlites. I'm OK, with a fan and a spray bottle of water.

So, for a summer break...

I just came across this Youtube video and want to share it with you.

First, a still from the video:


Then the caption from the video:

Mar. 11 - A Canadian man who has grown a beard that measures over seven feet long is all set to be endorsed in the record books.

Swaran Singh, a music teacher from Canada who is visiting his native Punjab, is the pride of all the Sikhs for sporting a beard that measures over 7 feet long.

He expects it to be endorsed in the Guinness Book of World Records.

As a devout Sikh, Singh wanted to inspire the young members of his community to retain the hair and not crop it.

(SOUNDBITE) (Punjabi) SWARAN SINGH: "God blessed every man with beard, but I have received special blessing from Him. I have done nothing special except caring it (beard). I have never applied any special hair oil on my beard and of course, I haven't done this for the sake of Guinness record."

And, at last, the video itself:

Combinations in Restraint of Trade

The Real Face of American Politics Reveals Itself Once Again

Once again, we can readily see through the evolution of the so-called Health Care Reform Legislation the forces that actually drive American Politics. The Lobbyists who dutifully represent the Health Care Insurance Industry and the wealthy are, once again, reaping the rewards for the largesse that they readily bestow upon legislators who vote on their behalf.

It is quite amazing how rapidly increased taxation on the very wealthy as a partial solution to financing health care reform was dropped from the agenda. It seems that this class that holds a vastly disproportionate share of the nation’s wealth does not have any obligation to actually contribute financially to a solution that would be an immeasurable benefit to all Americans. When it comes to reducing the tax burden of those who can easily afford higher taxes, however, the Congress has demonstrated on many occasions just how prepared they are to do so.

It is equally astonishing how quickly the inclusion of a public option as an integral part of the proposed health care reform legislation was also eliminated from consideration.

It does not require a remarkable stretch of the imagination to understand how these policy reversals occur. This represents the same old story. Our society and culture has devolved into one in which the primary concern for all human endeavor can be distilled into one powerful concept- profit. We seem to be more than willing to allow millions of men, women and children to continue to suffer needlessly on account of the fact the health insurance industry is not in the slightest way interested in the public health or the public good. It is a thriving industry built upon a failed and destitute public health system.

This is an outrageous situation and is, essentially, morally reprehensible. In my mind the Congress is primarily responsible. The American people also share the responsibility for being so easily swayed by fallacious arguments and not standing up for what they absolutely require.

America's Health Care Ranking

The American people pay twice as much per person for medical care than the rest of the world combined. America ranks 37th out of 191 countries in health care.

The World Health Organization has carried out the first ever analysis of the world's health systems. Using five performance indicators to measure health systems in 191 member states, it finds that France provides the best overall health care followed among major countries by Italy, Spain, Oman, Austria and Japan.

The U.S. health system spends a higher portion of its gross domestic product than any other country but ranks 37 out of 191 countries according to its performance, the report finds. The United Kingdom, which spends just six percent of GDP on health services, ranks 18 th . Several small countries – San Marino, Andorra, Malta and Singapore are rated close behind second- placed Italy.

The impact of failures in health systems is most severe on the poor everywhere, who are driven deeper into poverty by lack of financial protection against ill- health, the report says.

"The poor are treated with less respect, given less choice of service providers and offered lower- quality amenities," says Dr Brundtland. "In trying to buy health from their own pockets, they pay and become poorer."

While private health expenses in industrial countries now average only some 25 percent because of universal health coverage (except in the United States, where it is 56%), in India, families typically pay 80 percent of their health care costs as "out-of- pocket" expenses when they receive health care.

Colombia achieved top rank because someone with a low income might pay the equivalent of one dollar per year for health care, while a high- income individual pays 7.6 dollars.

In North America, Canada rates as the country with the fairest mechanism for health system finance – ranked at 17-19, while the United States is at 54-55. Cuba is the highest among Latin American and Caribbean nations at 23-25.

Health care, like education, is an investment in our future and should be a "not for profit" venture. Unfortunately in America, the health care industry is controlled by the pharmaceutical, insurance and medical products industries who enjoy a virtual monopoly on all pricing for the benefit of "maximum profit". It's no wonder they have launched a massive "disinformation campaign" and are lobbying (read "bribery") so hard to kill health care reform.

Survival of the Gold Promise

Since the creation of the Gold Promise,

there have been many waves.

Waves that have attempted to wash away,

erase the promise that we've written in the sand.

But the Gold Promise isn't made of sand.

It's as indestructible as we are.

it will be followed till death.

[or rather it will follow till death]

Hopefully it'll succeed either to leave a legacy,

or fail to fade away,

and become a legacy itself.

Humanity knows how vulnerable they are.

How big the mountains,

how deep the oceans,

how far the sun

and how close the opportunity of death.

But don't give up,

I alone, can't do this thing.

Even though we're so small,

the universe so big,

we were made for it.

[or rather it was made for us]

Fate can look grim,

but it can't be that bad

for its only the product of imagination.

Fate doesn't exist

...all that exists is what exists now.

So don't give up,

we still got a ways to go...

And that ways to go,

it can only be accomplished in the now.

Don't give up,

For the Sake of Humanity

and for the achievement of the Gold Promise.

Remember the present

and these rewards of life,

and this universe,

and these dreams...

The Nephilim

Genesis Chapter 6, verses 1 through 4 mentions Nephilim:

Now it came about, when men began to multiply on the face of the land, and daughters were born to them, that the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful; and they took wives for themselves, whomever they chose. Then the LORD said, "My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, for he is indeed flesh; nevertheless his days shall be one hundred and twenty years." The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men, and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.

They are mentioned again in Numbers chapter 13, verses 32-33, in a description of the inhabitants of Hebron:

So they gave out to the sons of Israel a bad report of the land which they had spied out, saying, "The land through which we have gone, in spying it out, is a land that devours its inhabitants; and all the people whom we saw in it are men of great size. There also we saw the Nephilim and we became like grasshoppers in our own sight, and so we were in their sight."

The Battle of Los Angeles

The Battle of Los Angeles is the name given by contemporary news agencies to a sighting of one or more unidentified flying objects which took place from late February 24 to early February 25, 1942 in which eyewitness reports of an unknown object or objects over Los Angeles, California, triggered a massive anti-aircraft artillery barrage. The Los Angeles incident occurred less than three months after America's entry into World War II as a result of the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Initially the target of the aerial barrage was thought to be an attacking force from Japan, but it was later suggested to be imaginary and a case of "war nerves", a lost weather balloon, a blimp, a Japanese fire balloon or psychological warfare technique, staged for the benefit of coastal industrial sites, or even an extraterrestrial craft. The true nature of the object or objects allegedly remains "unknown".

The incident was front-page news along the U.S. Pacific coast, and earned some mass media coverage throughout the nation. One Los Angeles Herald Express writer who observed some of the incident insisted that several anti-aircraft shells had struck one of the objects, and he was stunned that the object had not been downed. Reporter Bill Henry of the Los Angeles Times wrote , "I was far enough away to see an object without being able to identify it...I would be willing to bet what shekels I have that there were a number of direct hits scored on the object."

You kill the Red Indians and that is civilization, while the other is holocaust.

One Million Iraqis killed were flies and cockroaches, while 3,000 killed in 9/11 were martyrs.

You use WMDs at Hiroshima and Nagasaki but all who oppose you cannot have WMDs. Its OK if Israel has WMDs to kill the sub human Arabs but North Korea is a terrorist and Hillary Clinton who should have been sitting on Walmart's board of directors now talks about diplomacy! Funny lady!

Everything that is noble, good and altruistic is the west and everything that is bad are all those who oppose the west.

Illegal migrants legalized with force. You call it civilization :---

In 1994 Iraq complied with all of the U.N. demands including dismantling of WMD but the USA kept the sanctions leading to deaths of thousands so that oil prices stay high and benefit lackeys like Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. You call this diplomacy?!

BCCI Bank, later accused of money laundering and drugs, was a major donor to the Tory Party of Britain.

Khodorovsky, the biggest swindler and crook of Russia, generously donates to neo-conservative think tanks in the USA and active members of Khodorovskys foundations are Henry Kissinger and Lord Rothschild.

Height of western civilization :---

Killing and maiming with a B-52 is civilized, while killing with an AK-47 is a terrorist attack.

As they say, "war is the terrorism of the rich and terrorism is the war of the poor."

You call this the civilized west. It stinks.

Captains of Industry

The human spirit will thrive with co-operation; Far more than with competition. So why is our society based upon competition and not co-operation?

The current economic system is based upon the masses competing with each-other for limited resources for one reason; to keep them enslaved to the system. In addition to bondage our rulers choose to keep us, in the majority, impoverished slaves. The reality is the masses have had to work harder and have had less than the few at the top since the days of the pyramids.

Economics is simply the latest word for a pyramid shaped slavery control system. Pyramid schemes and structures favor the few and control, enslave and rip off the masses. They have been using the same structure for thousands of years.

Why do you think there is a pyramid on our money with the top cut off. Money is the control system and it states their formula right in plain view for all to see.

It shows the elite at the top, and the masses at the bottom. The slave masters and the slaves.

Everything is free

Let me get this straight.......

we do all the work.......

we buy all the products.......

and they get the lions share of the profit?

That's why we need labor unions.

Make the people rich......

that will save the economy.......really.
