Israel kills at least 10 in Gaza as truce unravels


A days-old truce announced by Gaza militants appeared to be fast unraveling after at least 10 people were killed and 30 wounded in Gaza in 24 hours of Israeli airstrikes. Rising tensions in and around Gaza kicked off early Wednesday, just days after militant groups said they would stop cross-border rocket fire, with Israel quietly agreeing to limit its strikes to those caught in the act. But an airstrike on Rafah early Wednesday which killed Islamic Jihad militant Ismail al-Ismar sparked a flurry of retaliatory rocket attacks, followed by further Israeli raids, rendering the truce agreement meaningless. Islamic Jihad said Thursday it would call off its rocket attacks if Israel first halted its airstrikes, which have killed nine, at least two of them militants with Islamic Jihad’s armed branch, the Al-Quds Brigades. “If Israel stops its attacks, the Palestinian resistance will stop firing rockets,” spokesman Daoud Shihab said, saying the group did not want “an escalation.” The truce announced Sunday night had been respected by militant groups including Islamic Jihad until Israel chose to break it, he said. “The last targeting in Rafah started the new crisis. Israel broke the truce when they killed one of the local leaders of the Al-Quds Brigades. After that, the Brigades answered this aggression,” he said.  “The truce is related to Israeli action. If Israel stops their operations, Palestinian resistance will stop firing rockets.” Earlier, Israeli Intelligence Minister Dan Meridor said Israel was ready to respect the tacit cease-fire agreement as there was calm along the border. “We will not jeopardize the calm if the other side does the same. But we will not wait to act while we are being shot at and people are dying,” he said. “I hope this message will be understood.” Since the strike that killed Ismar, militants have fired around 20 rockets into Israel and another ten Palestinians have been killed in subsequent air raids. Robert Serry, the UN’s Middle East envoy who had worked with Egypt to set up Sunday’s truce, expressed “deep concern” over the threat to the cease-fire. He called on both sides to act immediately “to prevent any further escalation,” a statement from his office said. Ghazi Hamad, deputy foreign minister in Gaza’s Hamas-run government, said the situation could easily spin out of control.  “There are no guarantees that the situation is under control, no guarantees that the firing will be stopped,” Hamad said.

Nato targets Muammer Gaddafi’s hometown


The military alliance said its aircraft had targeted 29 vehicles mounted with weapons near the city, which lies on the Mediterranean coast some 400km east of Tripoli. British jets also hit a large bunker in Sirte with a salvo of air-to-surface missiles. Liam Fox, UK defence secretary, said Nato would continue to strike at pro-Gaddafi forces to destroy any remaining military capability. Negotiations between the rebels and local leaders in Sirte have been taking place in recent days to facilitate the handover of the city without bloodshed. The Nato air strikes appear aimed at smoothing the way for the insurgent forces if the talks fail. On the other hand, loyalist forces fighting to prevent an advance of rebels who have over-run most of the country in recent days.

Chilean set fire against President Sebastian Pinera


Police used water cannon and tear gas to defuse the latest rash of social unrest against conservative billionaire Pinera’s policies. The government said hundreds of people had been detained since Wednesday and several police officers were badly injured two of them shot as violence flared overnight, when dozens of shops, supermarkets and gas station kiosks were looted and buses damaged. The government says only a fraction of public sector workers have joined the strike, called by Chile s main umbrella labor union CUT, which follows huge demonstrations led by students to demand free education and greater distribution of the spoils of a copper price boom in the top world producer.

Libya Update


They immediately hoisted their flag to mark the symbolic end to the strongman s 42-year rule. As rebel leaders proclaimed they had "won the battle" in Tripoli, fighters celebrated by firing automatic weapons into the air, chanting "Allahu akbar" (God is greatest), and raiding the armoury for ammunition, pistols and rifles. The defenders had fled, and there was no immediate word on the whereabouts of Gaddafi or his family after the insurgents late afternoon breached the defences as part of a massive assault that began in the morning. "We have won the battle," Abdel Hakim Belhaj, the insurgents Tripoli commander told Al-Jazeera television from inside the complex. "The military battle is over now," he said. Rebels however claimed that Gaddafi has fled the country contrary to earlier reports that cited Gaddafi as vowing that he will not quit. In the rebels eastern bastion of Benghazi, where residents poured onto the streets in celebration, commander Colonel Ahmed Omar Bani said there had been no trace of Gaddafi or his family. "Bab al-Azizya is fully under our control now. Colonel Gaddafi and his sons were not there; there is nobody," Bani said. "No one knows where they are." Footage from satellite channels showed a young rebel climbing atop a huge sculpture of a fist gripping an airplane -- a symbol of a US attack on the compound in 1986 -- trying to break off a piece. Another rebel proudly brandished a seized rifle with a gold-plated barrel and stock saying "Gaddafi people killed us with it."

Muammar Gaddafi profile


The Arab world s longest serving leader Muammar Gaddafi has maintained tight control in Libya by clamping down on dissidents for decades, but now, after weeks of unrest, followed by a United Nations resolution authorising a no-fly zone over the country, the veteran leader is feeling the pressure. Colonel Muammar Gaddafi was born in 1942 in the coastal area of Sirte to nomadic parents. He went to school at Sebha, then to Benghazi University to study geography, but dropped out to join the army. Gaddafi first entered the world stage in September 1969 when he led junior army officers in toppling King Idris in a bloodless military coup. The ageing king had ruled the former Italian colony since independence was gained in 1951. Gaddafi oversaw the rapid development of his poverty-stricken country, formulating his "Third Universal Theory," a middle road between communism and capitalism. One of his first tasks was to build up the armed forces, but he also spent billions of dollars of oil income on improving living standards, making him popular with the poor. Inspired by Arab nationalist sentiments, Gaddafi abandoned ties with Western powers and pursued the aim of uniting Arab countries. He instigated the Arab Federation with Syria and Egypt in April 1971 which soon broke down in argument and recrimination. He played a prominent role in organising Arab opposition to the 1978 Camp David peace agreement between Egypt and Israel. Gaddafi s relations with the West, and in particular the United States, became increasingly strained during the early 1980s. He denied involvement in bankrolling hijacks, assassinations and revolutions while insisting on his right to support national liberation movements. Accusations that Gaddafi sent agents to blow up a Berlin club frequented by United States marines in 1986 led to U.S. air raids on Tripoli and Benghazi just days later. Gaddafi s home in the Aziziya barracks was hit and his adopted daughter killed. Gaddafi designed a political system of local congresses where people were allowed to air their views and appoint representatives to the General People s Congress. In theory the People s Congresses hold legislative and executive power but critics dismiss them as dedicated to maintaining power and wealth in the hands of Gaddafi and his entourage. Gaddafi has poured money into giant projects such as the Great Man-Made River, a scheme to pipe water from desert wells to coastal communities. The project, which Gaddafi has described as the eighth wonder of the world, is estimated to have cost 20 billion U.S. dollars. When Pan Am Flight 103 blew up over the Scottish village of Lockerbie in December 1988, killing two hundred and seventy people, Western intelligence agencies were quick to point the finger of blame at the Gaddafi regime. United Nations Security Council sanctions, imposed in 1992 and strengthened in 1993, crippled Libya s economy but did not appear to dampen Gaddafi s revolutionary spirit and his anti-capitalist, anti-Western rhetoric. Former South African President Nelson Mandela played a key role in persuading Gaddafi to surrender two Libyan nationals suspected of involvement in the bombing. Abdel Basset al-Megrahi and Al-Amin Khalifa Fahima stood trial in a specially convened Scottish court at a former United States base in the Netherlands. Al-Megrahi was found guilty of mass murder and given a 27 year prison sentence, Fahima was acquitted and set free. Libya subsequently agreed to accept civil responsibility for both the Lockerbie bombing and the bombing of a French UTA airliner over Niger in 1989, and to pay compensation to relatives of the victims. Visionary or dictator, Gaddafi s quirky style is unique. He lives in a run-down army barracks in Tripoli or camps Bedouin-style, often taking his tent with him on trips abroad. He once pitched it inside Cairo s presidential compound. Ignoring the traditions of his conservative society, he surrounds himself with women bodyguards toting assault rifles. Regarded as a maverick in the Arab world, Gaddafi has frequently criticised Arab leaders and institutions. A row erupted at an Arab League summit in March 2003 when Gaddafi criticised Saudi Arabia for hosting thousands of U.S. troops since the 1991 Gulf War. Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah angrily interrupted Gaddafi saying: "The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is not a slave to imperialism like you or others. Who brought you to power?" before walking out of the meeting. Gaddafi has often disconcerted both friends and foes with swings in foreign policy. He caught the world by surprise in December 2003 when Tripoli announced it would abandon its weapons of mass destruction programmes and agreed to short-notice checks of its nuclear sites by U.N. nuclear inspectors. The announcement drew swift praise from London and Washington and an end to international isolation. British Prime Minister Tony Blair visited Gaddafi in Tripoli in March 2004 and over the next two years the United States ended a broad trade embargo, removed Libya from a list of state sponsors of terrorism and resumed full diplomatic relations. In April 2009 Gaddafi s fourth eldest son Mutassim made an official visit to the U.S. State Department as Libya s National Security Adviser and was met by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Mutassim has been seen as a possible successor to Gaddafi who has avoided designating an heir. In June 2009 Gaddafi made his first trip to Italy, Libya s former colonial ruler. Wearing a picture of hanged resistance hero Omar Al-Mukhtar pinned to his military uniform, Gaddafi was welcomed by Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi and given a red carpet reception. He returned to Italy the following month to attend a G8 Summit in his role as African Union chairman and met U.S. President Barack Obama. The return to Libya of convicted Lockerbie bomber Abdel Basset al-Megrahi, who was released from jail in Scotland on health grounds in August 2009, was welcomed with celebrations. Gaddafi s second eldest son, Saif al-Islam, accompanied al-Megrahi back to Libya and state television showed coverage of the Libyan leader greeting the former intelligence agent later that evening. In September 2009 Gaddafi marked the 40th anniversary of his leadership with six days of festivities designed to show that the long-isolated oil exporter was open again for business after years of heavy sanctions. Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez was guest of honour at a military parade held to kick off the celebrations. Later that month, in his first visit to the U.S. since taking power, Gaddafi addressed the United Nations General Assembly in New York. In his speech, Gaddafi accused major powers on the U.N. s Security Council of betraying the principles of the U.N. charter and condemned the veto power held by the five permanent members of the Council. "The Security Council is security feudalism, political feudalism for those who have permanent seats. They use it against us. It should not be called the Security Council it should be called the Terror Council," he said. Gaddafi s long rambling speech clocked in at one hour and 35 minutes and touched on topics as varied on vaccinations for children to the assassination of U.S. President John F. Kennedy. The advent of the "Arab Spring" which saw autocratic rulers toppled in neighbouring Tunisia and Egypt in early 2011 encouraged a popular revolt against Gaddafi s four decades in power. Gaddafi s violent crackdown on dissent sparked a civil war, prompting the Arab League to call for a United Nations no-fly zone over Libya. On March 17th the U.N. Security Council voted to authorize a no-fly zone and "all necessary measures" to protect civilians against Gaddafi s forces. Two days later a five-country coalition made up of the United States, France, Britain, Canada and Italy, launched air strikes on Libya in a joint operation called "Odyssey Dawn". In spite of the revolt, western air strikes and the defection of some of his closest aides, Gaddafi has remained defiant and appears to be hunkering down for a long siege. The Libyan leader has not been seen in public since an air strike hit a house in his compound in Tripoli on May 1st, killing his youngest son, Saif al-Arab, and three grandchildren.

Why I love my country?


I absolutely hate and am ashamed of my city Firing, bomb blast, burn buses, kill innocent citizens, target-killing this is Karachi. Karachi has become a fcuked up city Our Police, Ranger Army law enforcement agencies seem “toothless” They are so innocent and do not make difference the criminals and innocent citizen. They are famous but not missing any changes to catch the innocent and do not dare to come across or catch red hand the criminals or killers. I must say Killers never arrest and ... More shameful and disappoint even many people lost life's who people hands involved in all target killing in Karachi which disturb city peace and economy. A fresh wave of violence blamed on political tensions killed upto 80 people in Karachi during 48 hours Karachi is a big city where crime and corruption is rampant and targeted killings is convenient cover for criminal mafia to continue their activities. Politically parties as well politicians no one care everyone has the benefit of.  We all know the people and the parties involves in Target killings in Karachi. In my view MQM totally responsible root cause for target killing in Karachi this party growing on the base of corruption cannot establish peace in the city and the member who disagreed with MQM are being killed. MQM is making fool of innocent people. MQM Pakistan biggest terrorist group United Nation should ban on it. ANP also involves in terrorist activities. Things that make me feel sad NO ONE CARE

Karachi Pakistan bloodbath goes unchecked, death toll 40


Violence gripped the city after the PPP former lawmaker Ahmed Karimdad was killed in the Lyari area Wednesday.  His killing had been preceded by five youngsters being gunned down in different parts of the city. According to police, four bullet-riddled bodies were recovered from Baldia Town. The dead had been kidnapped, tortured and later gunned down. Gunmen also opened fire at a police station and a grenade was hurled in Ranchor Line area. While a body was found in Manghopir area, two bodies were recovered from Garden area. VIOLENCE between ethnic groups and criminal gangs killed 39 people in Pakistan's financial capital of Karachi, police said, as the government again struggled for solutions to the unrest. Four bodies, which had been tortured, were found stuffed in gunny bags in another part of the city.  A former MP for the ruling Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), Waja Karimdad, was among those killed in the fresh wave of violence in Karachi overnight, where hundreds of additional police and paramilitary troops were deployed last month. Spiralling unrest is a major source of concern in Pakistan's biggest city, which is used by NATO to ship the bulk of its supplies to troops fighting in Afghanistan and which accounts for around a fifth of the country's GDP. Independent economist A.B. Shahid estimated that 20 per cent of the city's business was shut down overnight with markets closed in southern neighbourhoods to protest against extortion money demanded by criminal gangs. The violence has been linked to ethnic tensions between the Mohajirs, the Urdu-speaking majority represented by the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM), and Pashtun migrants affiliated to the Awami National Party (ANP).

Another 200 villages of Badin flooded


Another 200 villages of Badin have been flooded and more than 300,000 people displaced. According to reports, monsoon rains have wreaked havoc across district Badin and its surrounding areas. Nullahs have been flooded by rainwater and people of many areas have started to move away on their own to get refuge. The Pakistan Army has launched a full-scale rescue operation after establishing an aid centre in Badin while the district administration has claimed that more than 90,000 flood-affected people have been shifted to camps. Water has spread all over the area and inundated almost all the land in district Badin while water has also entered Mangrio and Malkani after a 200-foot breach in LBOD salt water nullah. People of the area are helpless while some have taken refuge on high muddy rocks and others in government school buildings. Some of the displaced villagers complained that there is no one available to render any aid to them, others were crying over the death and loss of their livestock. The Pakistan Army has formed a rescue camp in Shadi Larj area where it is trying to provide all possible aid to the displaced people. Tens of thousands of people have been displaced in many other areas including Mehrab Chandio, Mukhtar Arain, Mooso, Mataro, Aaarib Halipoto and Ahmadani while more than 0.2 million people have taken refuge on higher places. After India’s spilling of water into River Sutlej, a flood is expected in the Kasur area of Punjab. Local residents are moving towards safe places. The district administration of Kasur has cancelled all workers  leaves and formed flood relief camps in various areas.

UK riots


Tottenham in London is still smouldering with anger and frustration, one week on from rioting.British PM David Cameron pledged "zero tolerance" crackdown on reckless thugs. Two suspects were set to appear in court Sunday over the deaths of three men of Pakistani descent in the riots. Cameron called the riots a turning point in British history as police, politicians and the public thrashed out what to do with the criminals behind an unprecedented wave of violence that rocked England last week. The frenzy of looting, rioting and arson is "going to change things, definitely," Cameron said, describing it as "a huge event in the life of the nation."Cameron has hired former New York police chief Bill Bratton to give advice on tackling gang culture as Britain searches for the best way to deal with its adrift underclass. Bratton was a key figure in imposing "zero tolerance" policing in New York and cutting crime after the 1992 Los Angeles riots. "We haven t talked the language of zero tolerance enough, but the message is getting through," Cameron told a British newspaper. "If you leave the broken window, the shop gets looted again." Cameron said some people were over-complicating explanations for the rioting. Last Sunday residents of the multi-ethnic neighbourhood were assessing the scale of the damage after a night that saw running battles with riot police, homes and businesses reduced to cinders and stores smashed into. But while the clean-up continues and businesses get back to normal one week on, the tension has not dissipated. Tottenham High Road, the neighbourhood s main thoroughfare which was the scene of last Saturday s explosion of violence, remained a crime scene for a week, taped off by the police as they gathered evidence. Saturday should have seen the area streaming with football supporters for Tottenham Hotspur s match against Everton as the English Premier League season kicked off, but the game was postponed for safety reasons. "We re closed since last Saturday," a Turkish restaurant owner said as he finally reopened for business, a week on. "People never demonstrate here to protest. Everybody s unhappy, frustrated. Economy, racism. And suddenly it all explodes," he said. The trigger for last Saturday s riot, which then sparked a wave of arson, looting and disorder across London and then to cities beyond, was the death of Mark Duggan. The 29-year-old was shot dead on Thursday, August 4 by armed police operating with officers from Trident, the unit of London s Metropolitan Police that deals specifically with gun-related murders in the black community. He was stopped in a pre-planned attempted arrest. A non-police issue handgun was recovered from the scene. The Independent Police Complaints Commission, which investigates all deaths involving officers, said there was no evidence of an exchange of shots. Last Saturday s events began with a peaceful march to Tottenham police station on the High Road from Broadwater Farm, a 1960s public housing estate that is notorious across Britain for a deadly 1985 riot. However, within hours, rioting broke out. "The people wanted police to know that they re messing up," reckoned 14-year-old Dillz Shah. His friend Jeffrey Freeman said: "The people wanted revenge for Duggan s killing. James Cardelle added: "My dad thinks Duggan was a very good man, he knew him." Duggan lived on Broadwater Farm, a collection of ugly-looking grey social housing blocks. "He was a nice guy. So sad," said Mohammed Abrar, 22, from beneath a grey hood. The October 6, 1985 Broadwater Farm riot followed riots a week before in Brixton, south London. They were sparked by the stroke death of a black woman during a police search at her home on the Tottenham estate. Youths rioted, attacking police with petrol bombs and bricks. Shots were fired at officers and a policeman was hacked to death by a mob in some of the worst urban rioting in Britain of the past 30 years. Then, as now, fingers were pointed at police "lies", but also at "anger" provoked by governments past and present. In a hairdressing salon opposite a burnt-out two-storey building, the black clientele lambast the authorities and the upper echelons of society.

The electronic media would present various programmes including national songs, talk shows, dramas and children programmes. The print and online media would carry out special supplements, features and articles, highlighting the importance of the day and sacrifices rendered by heroes and nation’s forefathers for it. Rallies, processions and colorful functions under the aegis of various public and private sector, social and political organizations in all small and major towns and cities of the country will be the hallmark of the day. In these programmes, the speakers would highlight the significance of the day, goals set for the future and in words of the father of the nation, Quaid-e-Azam bring “Unity, Faith and Discipline” to its people.
