In this world, man is a target of death, an easy prey to calamities, here every morsel and every draught is liable to choke one, here one never receives a favour until he loses another instead, here every additional day in one’s life is a day reduced from the total span of his existence, when death is the natural outcome of life, how can we expect immortality?

Pace man Asif aka “Asif Bonga” was finally released from the custody of Dubai Police. Technically speaking bhai saab was deported. Will these idiots ever learn to behave? hmm.. no. So I get back to my first question; Is Asif Bonga smarter than a fiifth grader?

Answer: “NO!”

Because even a fifth grader knows that if you are arrested at the airport with dope in your possession you are considered to be a smuggler. And in some countries they hang smugglers :P Damn, don’t you watch movies!

Those who follow Pakistani news are aware of a certain individual by the name Samad Khurram. Yes, the same Harvard Student who refused to take an honorary certificate from the US Ambassador; Anne Peterson. Samad stance was simple, he was protesting against the recent air strikes in the Northern Pakistan and American support for Musharraf.

This came as a surprise to many, some made Samad a hero and the rest found his act foolish. I find it a fair protest, should we be proud of a guy who recorded his protest by making things difficult for himself. Yes, why not. We were raised in an environment where freedom of speech was tabooed by parents, teachers, political leaders and military dictators. Some believe that it will make things difficult for the students who are studying in USA. But I think Samad has given courage to the Pakistani youth and gave them a platform where they can protest non violently.

We are not against any country. But you cant expect us to behave normal after bombing our houses and breeding

So it was decided that Senator Obama will run for the Presidential elections on the ticket of the Democrats. And since then we all observed in his speeches that this fella wont be any different from Bush if given the opportunity. His pro Israel and Anti-Iran Speeches are just a teaser. Other than upcoming war announcements US politicians also like to whine about freedom of speech and expression.

But in Barrack Obama’s case its different. He represents the African American Community of USA. And this community has payed a lot of price for being black when the country has always been ruled by White Men. But now not only African but other minority communities whether Asian, Hispanic and Middle Eastern communities have someone to look up to, someone who will put an end to racial discrimination once and for all. right?

WRONG !!

And I am saying that because; “A young Muslim woman along with another woman were refused seats directly behind Barack Obama — and in front of TV cameras — at a Detroit rally because they wear head scarfs.”

Hebba Aref “said Wednesday that she and Shimaa Abdelfadeel were among 20,000 supporters who gathered to see the Democratic presidential hopeful on Monday at the Joe Louis Arena when the groups they were with were separately invited by Obama campaign volunteers to sit behind the podium. But Aref said the volunteers told members of both parties in separate discussions that women wearing hijabs, the traditional Muslim head scarves, weren’t included in the invitation and couldn’t sit behind the podium.” - Source

Obama’s grandfather and father were Muslims. Though he never was a Muslim or practiced Islam but he has been accused of being a Muslim or having a Muslim background. Calling some US political figure a Muslim is like calling somebody a Nazi in 2008. So the poor Senator is trying his level best to be more pro Israel to negate that Nazi impression :P and its quite evident from his election campaigns.
