    http://www.khyber.demon.co.uk/history/pakistan/european.htm
    
    Extractions: To satisfy that ambition we use the English language, we copy the British institutions, and we follow the Western calendar. The result is that our thought, our expression, and our action are all inspired and shaped by European Culture - a Culture the core and content of which is Christian. This means that voluntarily and systematically we are surrendering Islam, Saracenism, and Pakism to Britishism, Europeanism and Westernism. In fact, such is our degradation that the fuller surrender we make of our heritage, the happier we feel with ourselves. This attitude and action most of us conveniently justify in the name of `Kemalism' (Kemal Attaturk-founder of secular Turkey), little realising that `Kemalism' is not a heaven-sent cult for us; and also that, in its original form, it was definitely a protest against Europeanism. Indeed, its victories in 1921-22 were all won by the appeal of Pan-Islamism and for the cause of Islamic culture and civilisation; and, what is more, its subsequent Europeanisation of the whole heritage of Islam in the world - and, in essence, Europeanisation is Christianisation. Thus it has done to our heritage what Christianity has failed to do in the Crusades.

    Extractions: When ABCNEWS drove up to a row of primitive storefront furniture factories in a working-class neighborhood in the city of Lahore, paint sprayers were filling the area with thick clouds of spray, spreading fumes associated with asthma, cancer, and other diseases. By the time the cameras were ready, the sprayers had been replaced by paint brushes. But neighborhood activist Agha Shezadh said not to be fooled. Five minutes after the cameras left, he predicted, the sprayers and their toxic fumes would be back, suffusing homes and three schools on the block. "You will see the complaints," Shezadh said. "They were filed in '99, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003." And when people complain, he said, officials tell them, "'We will see, we will talk, we will throw them out, we will seal their shops.' But nothing's going to happen in Pakistan."

    Extractions: Of course, this happened four years ago, but still the drama is unfolding and the man is very much in control of the game who committed the highest crime in the land of pure. If story ended here, perhaps something good have come out of it. The story still continues. There is a man Mir Shakeel Ur Rehman. He is a media tycoon of Pakistan. He runs two major newspapers of Pakistan and TV channel called Geo. He does not mind presenting general Musharraf as the real President of Pakistan. There is another media maverick Najam Sethi. He runs two news publications: The Friday Times and Daily Times. He is so much in love with the criminal general; he puts his picture on the front page of his newspaper every other day. He proudly writes editorials advising the criminal general how carefully he should tread in a world full of internal and external dangers. There is a long line of criminal politicians who are dancing on the tunes of criminal general. Choudharies of Gujarat - they shamefully want to make general Musharraf lifetime president of Pakistan. Pakistan has a prime minister too. That Prime Minister has not talked sense since his appointment. His latest stupid statement: America is very happy with Pakistan Army's performance. One can only laugh at this statement. These are few nuggets of the upside down culture where evil has become virtue and virtue has become evil. If one looks at the bigger picture, one can find many pelicans sitting on various branches of Pakistani culture.

    Extractions: Cultural Secretary's Statement on Promotion of Friendly Exchanges in various fields Talks on the Promotion of Friendly Exchanges in Various Fields were held today as part of the composite dialogue process that has begun between India and Pakistan. With the discussions today, the two countries concluded, discussions on the eight identified subjects in less than a month. This process has contributed to building trust and confidence, seeking mutually beneficial co-operation, and addressing outstanding issues. The subject we discussed today, is the very essence of the overall objective of the dialogue process. Normalisation of relations through promotion of interaction between the peoples of the two countries is one of the basic objectives of the Simla Agreement. People of both the countries have demonstrated a desire for greater bilateral contacts. There have been visits to India by eminent Pakistan singers, artists, theatre personalities and school children. It was our approach to build on them and explore further avenues in which the two countries could have meaningful exchanges. During our meeting today, we proposed detailed and practical suggestions in the field of Art and Culture, Youth Affairs, Sports, Information and Media. The Pakistan side informed that they would examine our proposals in the light of the India-Pakistan Cultural Agreement of 1988. We look forward to positive and constructive response from them.

97. Can Musharraf Reform Jihadi Culture? | Csmonitor.com
    Can Musharraf reform jihadi culture? pakistan s president is trying to quell militancy while avoiding a backlash. By Elizabeth Rubin  
    http://www.csmonitor.com/2002/0124/p08s01-wosc.html
    
    Extractions: MUZAFARRABAD, PAKISTAN As Pakistan Gen. Pervez Musharraf walks the delicate political line between quelling Islamic militancy without inciting violent backlash, one of the biggest questions is whether he will be able to transform the jihadi culture, bred in the Islamic schools that spawned the Taliban. But if 16-year-old Hafeez is any indication, Mr. Musharraf may be on the right track. Hafeez comes from a village in the line of fire from the Indian Army in the divided Himalayan region of Azad Kashmir. He says Musharraf's recent speech, declaring a crackdown on Islamist extremist groups and a push to modernize the education system, was fabulous. "The president took a revolutionary step to upgrade the standard of education at the Deeni

    Extractions: JAMRUD, PAKISTAN — The world is watching. America’s intervention in Afghanistan has not only provided Pakistan with a rare opportunity to court the world’s only superpower, it has also exposed Pakistan to the scrutiny of the Western press. This, at precisely the moment when General Pervez Musharraf, who became president only in June 2001, is struggling to cultivate democratic culture in a country still reeling from the reforms of General Zia ul-Haq in the late 1970s. By any measure, Musharraf has a long road ahead. Precious few Americans know anything about the history of Pakistan, much less that ul-Haq’s reforms consolidated conservative Islam’s stranglehold on the national imagination. Fewer still know that, in the process of imposing Islamic law on the land, he created a culture of servitude for the poor. Among other things, ul-Haq’s cultural reforms supported the creation of madrassas, religious secondary schools that instill Islamic fundamentalist values among the poorer classes — and that ultimately led to the creation of the Taliban. Not only did the madrassas teach that women must serve their husbands, but that children should serve their elders. In many cases, the service of young Pakistani boys to their elders also includes the provision of sexual favors. Servitude exists in many forms in Pakistan. Over the past two decades, hundreds of thousands of Afghan families — eager to flee 20 years of war and three years of drought — have sought safe haven in Pakistan, only to spend the rest of their lives working to pay off the debts they accumulated to get there. They do so by becoming indentured laborers, often at brick factories, and by sending their children to carpet factories that crave small fingers. Indentured servitude is not only legal but ubiquitous in Pakistan, and servant culture thrives: the wealthy can have a driver, three maids, a cook, and a night watchman for less than $75 a month.
