What is a poor commando to do, when..
ISLAMABAD, June 29: President Gen Pervez Musharraf said on Friday that an operation could be launched against the Lal Masjid and Jamia Hafsa brigade, but a raid would lead to heavy casualties on both sides because a large number of suicide bombers were inside the mosque and seminaries.

Responding to reporters’ questions at the concluding ceremony of the National Media Workshop at the National Defence University, President Musharraf said: “Can you guarantee that blood of any dead or injured will not be screened on television channels during the operation?”

QUETTA, June 5: A gas pipeline in the Pirkoh gas filed in Dera Bugti district was blown up early on Tuesday morning, causing suspension of supply to the Pirkoh gas purification plant. According to official sources, an explosive device placed under the main gas pipeline, blew up a three-foot portion of the pipeline. The powerful explosion rocked the Pirkoh township and the gas field area. Immediately after the blast, the Oil and Gas Development Corporation blocked the supply of gas from the wells and engineers started repairing the damaged pipeline. “We are trying to restore gas supply to the plant as soon as possible but it will take at least 36 to 48 hours,” OGDC officials said. Law-enforcement agencies were investigating the incident. No one had claimed responsibility till late Tuesday evening. In another incident, an oil tanker carrying fuel for the allied forces fighting in Afghanistan was blown up in Chaman. “The tanker was going to Kandhar from Karachi,” police sources said. They said that a bomb was planted under the tanker when it was parked near the Chaman grid station.

Uninvited Criticism

I detested this piece of negative coverage, given that there are a billion people below the poverty level in the subcontinent. Of course, corporal punishment has been handed down in the subcontinent from the british days. It is an effective means of establishing martial authority, and instilling discipline.

Notice the made up language, the poor professor did not even get a chance to use his footwear. And yet

Amir also lodged an FIR against the teacher accusing him of misconduct.
