Pakistan turns to China as ties with U.S. suffer
(Reuters) - Pakistan, facing a crisis in relations with the United States, appears to be seeking more support from powerful ally China.
-------------------------
That is good news.
Them ungrateful pack need to learn a lesson. When Pakistan becomes an extension of Tibet, Afghanistan will have peace, and all the lawless trigger happy country-folks will kindly follow Chinese indoctrination; just like in Tibet. The world needs that.
Everybody will be happy, and China grows.
Let’s look at the positive side. Their illogical and ego centered attitude will save us billions of taxpayer dollars that can help our economy.
All that we have to do is help India in being strong.

Inside the Wall Street Protests: An Eyewitness Account of Police Crackdown on Peaceful Demonstrators
Protesters from the week-old "occupation" in New York's financial district were arrested, penned up, and Maced on Saturday when the NYPD showed up to their march.

My Take
Episodes like the one shown in the very city where the UN is seated, is what cause people like the Haqqanis, and the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan, and so may others, to see the USA as hypocrites. New York City does not represent the USA, but in the eyes of the outsiders, NYC is the USA. Shame on the NYC cops.
Of course anyone who listens to the radio in NY City can understand the NY cops are a bunch of trigger happy freaks.
When I worked in NY City, a little over a decade ago, there the news once reported about NY city cops killing an African immigrant who did not speak English, who tried to use his cell phone and the cops shored him with gunfire, because he did not understand FREEZE! In another instance, a known mentally hill Jew who pulled a hammer to the cops, got the same fate. The cops chose not to mace him. This poor guy was so hill that he was running naked, he had no weapons hiding—he had no clothes on.
However. our courts sided with the cops “They thought their lives were in danger”. What about this peaceful demonstration. The cops here appeared more sophisticated, they gas the people--peaceful demonstrators.
Where are Hillary Clinton and Barac Hussein Obama II, with their big mouths accusing everybody else of oppression? Only the Syrians, the Chineese, the Iranians, anybody else are oppressionists, yah! Right! This happened in Clinton’s backyard. She is only a few dozen miles from New York City. Worse yet, where are the all American-media, they barely mentioned it?
The problem appears to obvious; the filthy rich must not be exposed, by any price. Most likely if the same had happened in protest about anything else, the protesters would be welcomed as a symbol of American Freedom. Now we see, American freedom ends where exposing the rich starts.
Do our soldiers have access to this oppression in NY City? If ours soldiers see this will they have high moral and dedication needed to be willing to die for freedom?

Pakistan
Haqqani network, a US offshoot
Special Correspondent
LAHORE: The much-drummed ‘Haqqani network’ that has put the state of Pakistan in hot waters, like many other ‘freedom fighter’ groups of Afghanistan, had close links with the US supreme intelligence agency, CIA.
During the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan, the network was like Hikmatyar group, that developed links with the ‘outsiders’ to get support for establishing their military writ against the USSR, and CIA was the major financer of its activities in Afghanistan and its confidence level with the Americans raised to such a level that its head Maulvi Haqqani is thought to have even visited the White House to enjoy the hospitality of Ronald Reagan. The American military and civil leadership today blaming Pakistan government and country’s top intelligence organisation, ISI, for patronising, sharing and co-operating with the once blue-eyed of US guys is considered to be the most fatal group for US and NATO forces ‘fighting’ in Afghanistan.
The US military commanders believe that the “group is one of Afghanistan’s most experienced and sophisticated insurgent organisations” and “one of the biggest threats to NATO and United States forces...” Here is the brief introduction and history of its activities. The report is based on information gathered from different sources.
“The group is still believed to be led by Maulavi Jalaluddin Haqqani. Maulavi Haqqani is a former anti-Soviet resistance commander known for ruthless effectiveness as a fighter. His ties to Pakistan, and his base in and around Miranshah go as far back as his exile during the Republican government of Sardar Daud in early 1970s. He was initially associated with many mujahideen leaders that formed Hizb-e-Islami. When Hizb-e-Islami fractured in the late 1970s, Haqqani followed Younis Khalis rather than Hekmatyar, and became one of the most important commanders in the Hizb-e-Islami (Khalis) or HIK.
When Soviet forces invaded Afghanistan, Haqqani was in Pakistan with the other key mujahideen leaders. Haqqani later became a field commander in Maulavi Younis Khalis’s Hizb-e-Islami. He received significant support from the CIA and from Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) Directorate, and built up a sizable and competent militia force by the mid-1980s. Haqqani is believed to be influenced by radical Islamist principles drawn from the early Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, which were prevalent among many of the religiously motivated Afghan mujahideen of that time. Maulvi Haqqani and his son Sirajuddin Haqqani run a number of madrassas and training camps in North Waziristan. Due to his father’s ill health, Sirajuddin Haqqani is reported to be in charge of the day-to-day operations of the movement.
The Haqqanis hail from the Zadran tribe, who are mostly based in Paktia and Khost provinces in the east of Afghanistan. “Their support base has always been in that area with a base in North Waziristan,” reads a report of the Institute for the Study of War.
The group proved its dominance in Khost area as the battles for Khost were fought in 1985-1987 by Haqqani men isolating the Soviet forces’ garrison at Khost early in the war, taking advantage of the fact that there was only one major road linking Khost with the rest of Afghanistan — the Khost-Gardez road that runs through the Satekandav Pass. In summer 1985, Haqqani gathered several thousand fighters and assaulted the city of Khost itself, overrunning Soviet forces’ outposts and requiring a significant Soviet counter-attack to save the city.
In 1987, the Soviet leadership decided to undertake a major effort to open the Khost-Gardez road long enough to get supplies in to the town and its garrison. Operation Magistral (Mainline), as it was called, was the major Soviet military effort of that year, overseen directly by Colonel General Boris Gromov, commander of Soviet forces in Afghanistan. Gromov made numerous attempts to negotiate with Haqqani and Zadran tribal elders to secure safe passage for supplies to Khost without fighting. It is not clear whether or not Haqqani himself participated in negotiations, but Zadran tribal elders certainly did and they drew out the discussions intentionally to allow time for their forces to react. Two weeks of hard fighting allowed the Soviet forces to secure the Satekandav Pass. The arrival of Soviet reinforcements and the elimination of a key insurgent base convinced Haqqani to withdraw his forces temporarily. The Soviets re-supplied the garrison and then withdrew from the area. By 1989, all Soviet forces had withdrawn from the country.
The available information reveals that the top leadership of the group consists of Jalaluddin Haqqani, Sirajuddin Haqqani, Badaruddin Haqqani – (younger brother of Sirajuddin), Sangeen Zadran, Nasiruddin Haqqani and others.
Different studies speak different about the strength of this group as a report published in an American newspaper indicates that “they are thought to have about 4,000 to 12,000 Taliban under their command” while a 2011 report from the Combating Terrorism Centre places its strength roughly at 10,000-15,000.
The Haqqani network is considered to be the pioneer of suicide attacks in Afghanistan and tend to use mostly foreign bombers whereas the Taliban tend to rely on locals in attacks.
The following activities are being attributed to the group:
January 14, 2008: Kabul Serena Hotel attack, March 2008: Kidnapping of British journalist Sean Langan, April 27, 2008: Assassination attempts on Hamid Karzai. July 7, 2008: US intelligence blamed the network for 2008 Indian embassy bombing in Kabul. November 10, 2008: The Kidnapping of David Rohde, December 30, 2009: Camp Chapman May 18, 2010: Kabul bombing, February 19, 2011: Kabul Bank in Jalalabad, Afghanistan, June 28, 2011:
According to ISAF, elements of the Haqqani network provided “material support” in the 2011 attack on the Hotel Inter-Continental in Kabul. The Pentagon blamed the network for the September 10 attack. A massive truck bomb explodes outside combat outpost in Sayed Abad in Wardak province, killing five Afghans, including four civilians, and wounding 77 US soldiers. US Ambassador in Afghanistan Ryan Crocker blamed the Haqqani network for a September 12 attack on the US embassy and nearby NATO bases in Kabul. The attack lasted 19 hours and resulted in the deaths of four police officers and four civilians. At least 17 civilians and six NATO soldiers were injured. Three coalition soldiers were killed.
According to a July 2011 report published by West Point’s Combating Terrorism Centre, the network acts as a key facilitator of negotiations between the Pakistani government and the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan and as the “primary conduit” of many Pakistani Taliban fighters into Afghanistan.
According to US Special Envoy and Ambassador to Afghanistan (1989-1992) Peter Tomsen, the ISI has maintained its jihad era ties with Haqqanis.

My comment
If it is all US property, that means the US government is liable for any damage caused by its junk falling on a person, or on a house, or a car. It must be a lawyers’ paradise. If any US space junk falls on a urbanized area like LA or Chicago, it can cost NASSA some big bucks because of NASSA’s comments. The ambulance chasers will not sleep tonight.

Virginia – challenge to Federal healthcare
http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/09/21/breaking-news-the-civil-war-is-over/?ref=opinion&nl=opinion&emc=tya1
NY Times
Virginia – challenge to Federal healthcare
----------------------------------
My Take
As the United States of America keeps on polarizing towards an absolute military-sate, more states as well as more individuals will challenge the tyrant. I have had times when I did not have health care insurance. Those were the times when food was scarce, and the little borrowed money was to pay delinquent taxes and utilities.
Sometimes, I was without utilities. Once I was weight months without electricity, and because my water was from a well, I did not have power from the pump, thus my water was fetched from the town’s pond. So, another federal law forcing me to have insurance, would be taking from the little food I had.
Mitt Romney and Barack Obama with their abundance of money have no idea how people live in poverty. Just as bad, congress has guaranteed income and perks that put the name America to shame. So, the poor are not part of the American plan. The protective net is only for women disguised as Families with children. That is why women go long ways to get that kid as a source of income. “Guaranteed income”, a woman told me.
Some young girls have bragged that they will not have to work for 20 years. “They knew they were sitting on a gold mine.” A baby becomes an anchor to steady income. When that baby reaches age for mom to get a job by welfare rules, another baby will replace the first. The chain goes on, because, the guy believed she was on the pill, but for 24 years he will remember that it was all part of that woman’s plan.
Even if the father has joint custody, but if mom has physical custody, the mam has no public recourse. So in reality only some people get really hurt from Obamcare—men. Neither democrats nor republicans have any respect for the poor, especially for the male gender, another tyrant-law just hurts a few—just those who are disposable by our government—only men who are poor.
However, for whatever reason, The State of Virginia is on the right track, because only those who chose to give money to the capitalist system are free to do so; the rest who can’t afford, may opt out. We are talking about the right to choose. Only those of us who have been without work know how the system functions.
I count five jobs-shutdowns and numerous layoffs. So, Linda Greenhouse should make research into real life before writing as if forced-health care is correct in a country where people use to be free with their own money—the USA—we use to call it “the land of the free”.

Bank of America Deserves It.

BofA, Citigroup Credit Swaps Jump After Moody’s Cuts Debt Grades

My Bite
BofA, deserves the pinch.
They have no respect for the citizen who tried to cash a BofA check at their own branches; but the person did not have an account with Bank of America; only to force people to either get an account with BofA or deposit a BofA check elsewhere.
That was unAmerican. They did it to me twice. Let the arrogant and the oppressors fall, they deserve it.
Obama II, Finally Did Somehint Right

Obama, at U.N., Explains Rationale for Opposing Palestinian Statehood Bid
---------------------------------------
My Take
Obama II, finally did something right. The question remains: was this genuine, or was it for votes in the upcoming election? Israel might have been better off, if Obama II had been Israeli-friendly. Nevertheless, hurray to Obama II, for finally calling on both Israel and Palestine to negotiate like adults.
Let’s see how Obama II, will do when Turkey starts the next war by trying militarily to break the Hamas blockade, as Turkey has stated, it would escort the next flotilla. Then, we will see in what side Obama II is sitting.
