Who's missing then?

Here is a list of all those who have fulfilled their duty to the good book, over the publication of the bad book:

a) The mullah - they have put their wallet where their mouth is.

Collections reach $1m and counting
PESHAWAR, June 22: A prayer leader on Friday announced a $1 million reward for anyone killing Salman Rushdie and awarded the title of Amirul Momineen (chief of the faithful) to Al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden.
So Mullah Omar is demoted, then?

b) The people's representatives - they have put their effigies where their mouths are ( I salute their effort, it probably hurt)

JUI-F leads protest against Rushdie’s knighthood
QUETTA, June 22: Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam (Fazl) leaders and activists took out a procession on Friday against the British government’s decision to confer knighthood on controversial writer Salman Rushdie.

Protest day against Rushedie title observed
KARACHI - Protests against continued in the city on Friday against Britain’s awarding knighthood to blasphemer Salman Rushdie.

Hundreds of mosques, seminaries, religious organizations and people from all walks of life participated in the protest demonstrations to express their anger against the British honor given to the India born Rushdie.

Bad, India, bad, bad India. Producing people who write books!!

c) The gourment - Led by the prime minister, state and federal both have moved resolution, broken benches, and even held meetings !!

Blair hates Muslims
Parliamentary Affairs Minister Sher Afgan Niazi said the house had passed a unanimous resolution in this context. “The government has strongly protested and told the British high commissioner that Pakistanis have been deeply hurt by their action,” Afgan said.

The minister said Rushdie had made no contribution to literature and in fact, the British government had negated its own traditions by knighting him. “In Britain only those are knighted who have won a Nobel Prize.” He, however, said he would not favour a second resolution in the house.

Dr Attaur Rehman of the MMA said Pakistan should withdraw as a frontline state in the “war on terrorism,” because it also includes Britain and the US.


So, we have a prized goat for whoever comes up with who is yet to voice their opinion on the subject. One entry per household onlee.

The "Charm" controversy

Due to unsubstantiated allegations made in the trashy paperback published from the toilets of the State Department by a Ms. Rice, howls of unreasonable protests are rising against the prime minister, who also holds the title of national Ladies Mard.


The Prime Minister hold the title of the national ladies-mard due to his popularity with the wimmens.

Until the book was published, the population saw this as a great honor, they were even happy:



However, now it has become an affront to HandD. Therefore, the elected representatives in the great democracy are acting.

Rice snubbed 'flirt' Pak PM, Senate slams him
Quote:
New Delhi: The Pakistan Senate has moved a motion to summon Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz over allegations that he tried to “charm” US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice during talks.

Twice as Good: Condoleezza Rice and her Path to Power, a new biography of the American leader, claims Aziz tried his "seductive baritone on Rice during her first visit to Pakistan in March 2005.

News agency DPA reports Marcus Mabry, a senior Newsweek journalist and author of the biography, writes that Aziz "tried his Saville Row-suited gigolo kind of charm” on Rice but ended up “babbling” and embarrassed.

"There was this test of wills where he was trying to use all his charm on her as a woman and she just basically stared him down. By the end of the meeting, he was babbling," the book claims.

According to the Pakistani paper Daily Times, Mabry writes “when Rice sat down with Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz, who fancies himself as ladies’ man, Aziz puffed himself up and held forth in what he obviously thought was his seductive baritone.”

According to the book, Aziz bragged to Western diplomats that he could “conquer any woman in two minutes.

The Senators, who signed the motion on Tuesday, asked Aziz to explain his conduct before the House. "The matter, as published, was shameful for the entire nation and needs discussion," the motion said.

Aziz’s office on May 26 had said that the book’s claims against him were “trash”. "There is nothing more we could offer to such a nonsensical script, it is a trash" the Prime Minister's Secretariat's has said.


Frankly, by refusing to get charmed, Ms. Rice missed out on a good thing. On the other hand, I think this is a better way to save the remaining HandD than the earlier attempt, which was:

At the age of 53, Condoleezza Rice is still a single and it is said that she has her own fixations. In the same biography, it is said that once she addressed President Bush as “My husb-”.

“They point to her remark at a Washington dinner party in 2004, when she said, ‘As I was telling my husb-’ before abruptly correcting herself, ‘As I was telling President Bush...’ (Rice told me she doesn’t think she ever made the comment; ‘I swear I don’t remember any such slip... I don’t think it happened,’ And neither do any number of other guests at the dinner, though some swear they heard her say ‘husband.’).”

My,my. What jealousy. Now we all know unmarried households are all the rage in the western countries. But really, in a conservative and moderately enlightened society like ours? Why did they not walk out? The cricket team can think faster than these leaders.
