Charlie Rose - Ambassador Haqqani & Farahnaz Ispahani

[justicetruth84]

How can she be US citizen and an elected official in Pakistan Government. That ought a tell you all about these two face piece of shits. They are just trying to rally the west to secure their personal interests.

[swetlillies]

Mr! Haqqani is and will be concidered traitor. Basterd of Pakistan

[dentalmanuk]

This man is a disgrace for Pakistan, he should be shut up, as he's really protecting American interests cos he knows after Zardari regime he'll have to stay in USA, shame on u

[dentalmanuk]

folks at least a break from Zardaris and Sharif's who've been rediculing Pakistanis and Islam by their clown acts...lets give Imran a chance, I know he might be wrong but nothing worse can be expected than Zardari and Gilani regime

[786FH]

Haha What do you mean by wahabi lol. There is no sects in islam.People in Pak called saudis as wahabi but with no justification. But she is shia and she is already anti real islam.Why she is representing Islam doesnt she know that prophet told to covered hairs infront of Non-mehram.

[lordfairgo]

Npeageus is right in biased way .Well India has built a huge network to do suterfuge in Pakistan and get into every spehre of afgan life. india is trying to destablize baluchistan and nwfp. In Kashmir 550,000 are try to stop a freedom movement since 1989 . The kashmirs wants frredom and as per un resolutionj a self dertimantion plebiscite has to done . the kashmir problem is much like falklands issue . India is building dams in kashmir to stop water flow. indian sponsored attacks have hundreds

[NPegasus]

You're mixing too many issues. Pakistan claims that it has a geographial right to have a govt of its liking in Afghanistan. Fair enough! But, unlike India, Pak has never built roads, hospitals ports, electric stations of any significance in A'stan. It has also not help train Afghan police, bureaucrats, nurses, doctors, accountants despite having a friendly govt there for a decade in the 90's.

The India-Pak rivalry should be settled by both countries.

[man2die4]

Traitors....

[bbehnia11]

what are you talking about? Pakistan is the number one problem spot in the world...a country ruled by corrupt people in the military and civilian sectors backed by the US, who use international funds to support their own lavish lifestyles, and a backward islamic population which is more muslim than the Arabs, creating all the terrorist vermin such as Ramsay Yussaf and alike, putting defenseless civilians in India, US, Europe, and Asia in harm's way.

[cherianjubilee]

There is -absolutely no- tolerance in Islam for taking even one innocent life. Suicide sends you straight to hell and is considered self-murder. There is no justified murder. I remember the teaching in Islam, kill one innocent person and its like you have murdered the whole of humanity. So I am sorry if Deobandis or wahabis or Pashtoons think they are following Islam, the hypocrites are -them-.

[MSE785]

Wahabbis/Deobandis are truly representing Islam if you dont believe than kindly read carefully the Quran and the Hadis you will than know they are 100 % right in their right actions according to Islamic teachings. All suicide bombers, all kind of attacks on schools on our soldiers at western borders and behind every bad incident the worst CIA & Raw agencies are involved and from time to time our media also proves that foreign agencies are involved in different attacks in Pakistan

[MSE785]

and you will know who is who whether he/she believe in Quran and Hadis or they are Muslim by name in reality they are truly No. 1 hypocrites amongst elite class of Pakistan who are responsible for destroying Islamic image and working for CIA/Christian/Jewish interest.

[TheSolitaryRex]

She's rightful. Wahabbis/Deobandis are the true reason of extremism in Pakistan.

[basak983]

look at this porki black skinny fuck. long live ISLAM and PASHTOONs and pushtunistan. fuck porkistan

[zinkinkin]

Patronising bitch. Loves champaign and ham.

[anyonelala]

Mr Haqqani is a great man! god bless him!

[Mo00nlight]

They are chamcha's of every daig, that's why they are so succesful in politics until now. They keep on changing their views about Islam and liberalism with changing governments.

[Pak4pakistan]

I am a Pakistani Iranian,and in Iran people of Isfahan are know to be shrewd and mean. She definitely looks Iranian and well, the name tell us what kinda person she could be. Although, I do not know her personally or know any thing about her, I must say, the Isfahanis must have had a time adjusting in the sub-continent. One can almost compare them to Maimans. Who gives the damn about PPP,a killer and a rapist for President.What the Hell is wrong with the people of Pakistan.

[AdduJi]

she is being an ass. Subcontinent's Islam? She are telling that American that Bhangra version of Islam is "PAKISTANI" Islam? she's another bitch like her hubby who prefers to follow their own religion in name of Islam

[trexplorer1]

Perfect comments, but bro i don't have knowledge abt 'Pakistani' Islam.

Yes there is differeiantions in 4 Mazahib, but that is a gift. I feel hurt when she talk abt Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal.

[1dawood786]

Both of these characters are totally bogus. Hussain Haqqni and his wife Farahnaz are corrupt, and dishonest politicians who can see no further than their own selfish motives.

[reedpower]

this lady is sexy n hot. i wish she was my mom

[NPegasus]

Mr.Haqqani & the MP have not told us anything new than what we have heard from previous visiting Pakistani Presidents or Prime Minsters; an assurance(?)that Pakistan will weed out its jihadi network. But wait, here is the catch! They will also need billions of dollars in cash, international debt write offs, more F-16's(wonder how can they fight jihadis with them), free access to US nuclear technology etc

Not a bad bargain; get handsomely paid for attempting to defeat a self-created monster!

[cherianjubilee]

NPegasus ... totally hypocritical. The monster was in large part created by the efforts of the US. It has come back to haunt you after US left and boogied out leaving Pakistan to clean up the mess all by itself

[NPegasus]

cheriajubilee: The US has owned up to its mistakes in Afghanistan but Pakistan has not. Pakistan continues to dilly-dally on its commitments & does not act unless it's sedated with billions of dollars in aid. Pak knows well how to manipulate & is not an innocent victim. Pak saw the soviet war an opportunity to achieve parity with India using the US dollars & modern weapons. Pak has used the Taliban in Afghanistan to create strategic depth and spread mayhem in Kashmir.

[cherianjubilee]

Pakistan did not see Soviet war as an opportunity, it saw the Soviet war as a threat to its own land. Afghans would be looking at posters of Stalin for the past decades if Pakistan had not interfered along with the US. Now if you are a communist, you might have liked that and that's ok but Afghans in general were not ready to become communists.

[NPegasus]

cherianjubliee: Pakistan was a member of the Baghdad pact. It's not a surprise that it joined the war against the Soviets. It's known that Pakistan had its own axe to grind in the Afghan jihad. That's alright but implying Pak as a bystander is a lie.

Like the Communists, the Afghans were not ready to be ruled by the Taliban by proxy from Pakistan. But, we saw that happen in the 90's for acquiring strategic depth. Pakistan does not have the bandwidth or the desire to rebuild Afghanistan.

[nangamujra]

@NPegasus Rebuild? why would Pakistan rebuild Afghanistan? Pakistan should rebuild itself first.

[apollonorthamerica]

You are way off. Pakistan didn't want a communist country at its western border. However, the aid not only came from the US but also matched dollar per dollar by Saudi Arabia that follows a wahabi brand of Islam. US left, Saudis kept a hand in there. Your simplistic view cannot be taken seriously. I'll let you figure out that when US leaves what the locals feel about it (betrayal) and Wahabis keep engaged how it is that wahabi political views start taking hold in the region.

[NPegasus]

I'm not presenting a simplistic view. Pakistan's disastrous policies in Afghanistan are explained in detail by the Pak ambassador to the US in his book with references. The US also cannot be pardoned but it atleast tries to fix its follies.

I'll leave to the future what happens when the US leaves and in what circumstances it leaves Afghanistan. It's the countries in the region which should be more concerned about rising Wahhabism; more than the US.

[NPegasus]

Why only blame the rogue ISI? Pak's 'secular'& ruling elite have also mistaken 2 geographical realities of the subcontinent;

1)They like to believe a much larger India as Pak's peer; someone to achieve parity with at any cost. This explains the covert jihad thru mujahideen; excessive army expenditure; renting land to US/Saudis in return for arms & money.

2)They like to believe Afghanistan as Pak's client state-not a neighbor.This explains arming & nursing the Taliban for future use.

[abujahl007]

The ISI is the problem. Its a state within a state. Its the tail that wags the dog.

[thexcount]

Charlie Rose is the Man!

[TorchedIce]

I have no idea what they were talking about. I could hear anything over her smoking hotness.

[TorchedIce]

Couldn't*. I don't know how to edit a post.

[abcw828]

Pakistani women are extremely beautiful

[iitzeus]

Her surname is Espahani. She's of Iranian descent (from Esphahan), not from the native Pakistani population.

[abcw828]

Shes a former member of the Pakistani national assembly,I think that makes her as PAKISTANI as ne1

[iitzeus]

Not disputing her nationality, only her ethnicity. Chill.

[abcw828]

Didnt mean 2 insult you, its just that loads of anti-Pakistan propaganda on utube.

PS:Change your nationality on ure profile,if u r from across the border than please state so.

Thanx :)

[iitzeus]

Never mind, there's loads of anti-anything propaganda on youtube.

Keep up the good work & poketh not your nose in how others identify themselves.

[abcw828]

If u r indian then say it & be proud of it.Y hang under the guise of being Pakistani?

[iitzeus]

I am what I am. I don't have to justify/explain it to others, all right ?

As I said, mind your own business.

[abcw828]

Just seems like you have a huge inferiority complex.I have nothing anti-Indian on my page,cz I am PROUD 2 B PAKISTANI & dont give a shit what goes on next door.You,on the other hand,seem 2 b the opposite!!

[iitzeus]

Well, I don't harbour any complexes. And I am scant bothered by what you identify yourself as. You might be a Swahili-Pakistani-German for all I care.

Otoh, you seem too keen to place/categorise me .. which shows trouble in your mind than mine.

Stop getting so Freudian over my arse and tend to your own flock, mister.

[abcw828]

My flock is ok,thank u very much...its just that your psyche is so sneaky,vile & wounded u cant do anything without putting your enemy down. Tell me,are you that fragile?That you cannot have any selfesteem without putting someone else down.We Pakistanis are fiercely proud of who we are,& we dont care about anything your country does.Are you ashamed of your history?It seems u have an interplay of inferiority/superiority in your head & it is exposing your deep character flaws.Insecure little rat..

[iitzeus]

what is wrong with you man ? when did i put pakistanis down ?

i merely commented that espahanis are of iranian extraction - is that what you're miffed about ?

& it's been you who's been obsessing about my profile and why i ought to change it or whatever. i just asked you to let me be, 'cause i'm pretty comfy in my skin. don't need others to tell me how to describe myself.

just look at your replies to me. who, in retrospect, has any complex? decide for yourself.

[abcw828]

Look man.I am pro-peace & al that.

I just wanna ask you,in a nice way, *please* correct your nationality

/Thanx

[iitzeus]

Thanks for your interest.

I humbly wish to inform you that my nationality is *my* nationality and *I think* it is reported correctly. Peace out.

[fdh2006]

What country doesn't have beautiful women in it?

[abcw828]

England

[samreedi]

lol tsk tsk behave yourself!

[abcw828]

lol haha its TRUE!!!

[southbridgemax]

I think they'd both be a lot happier if they were wearing a bathing suit and sitting in one of the floating rubber chair things in a pool at a resort, sipping on some fruity drink. I bet she would be hot in a bikini.

[abcw828]

Pakistan has a huge music & fashion industry, where people are extremely liberal.Watch the FTV Pakistan videos(in my favourites section)

[sledneck5434]

bhbds

[manofsan]

Who does this lady think she is - Preity Zinta?

What an actress. She doesn't seem to recognize that it's the Pakistani state which created these militants, and is to blame for their ideology. You ride the tiger, you reap the whirlwind.

[abcw828]

It was the CIA & Congress that created the militants.Watch "Charlie Wilsons War"

[manofsan]

Already seen it - and knew about it back when it was actually going on, long before the movie.

Pakistan was already arming the militants before the CIA piggybacked off it, and Pakistan actually urged the US to join in. So Pakistan is not a victim here. Let's recognize that if the Taliban and AlQaeda regain control over the region, then there will be more high-casualty terror-bombings in the West. That's not something to be brushed off lightly.

[abcw828]

Zbigniew Brzezinski(Jimmy Carters advisor),when asked by journalists whether he felt 'guilty' about brainwashing/arming all these people,said the downfall of the Soviet Union was more important than 'a few crazed Muslims'.The US was instrumental in arming,supplying,providing logistical support,training & funding the militants.They are Americas best friend of yesteryear,just as Saddam once was.And the hypocrisy is profound!!

[manofsan]

I agree, and furthermore Brzezinski and Carter (those lovable Democrat liberals) actually decided to arm the mujahedin even before the Soviets actually invaded. They wanted to lure them into a quagmire. Pakistan however did draw their attention to the holy war opportunity, and was already arming the rebels on its own. Just as Pakistan similarly helped to broker Kissinger's secret visit to China, to help pave the way for Nixon's visit there, and the Sino-American alliance.

[BPB9973952]

And America never made it to the moon, and pigs really do fly. Your conspiracy theories are humorous

[escordato]

What conspiracy theory? Yes, the U.S. armed the mujahedin; yes, Pakistan supported the arming.

how exactly is that a "conspiracy theory"? Pejorative terms are not going to change recent history, sorry. Action is needed. What's the best action for the U.S. and our interests in this case?

what the hell do conspiracy theories have to do with this?

[abcw828]

Do some readings, poke your head out of your arse & start thinking from your BRAIN instead of from your testes. Idiot!
