After facing a defeat in Afghanistan, as they faced defeat in Iraq, America and its crusader allies are trying to sign the strategic pacts in order to veil their defeat and to have a long term influence in the region. Before this, the Bush administration signed the same sort of strategic and security pacts with the Maliki regime of Iraq, in 2007.
In light of the revolutions in the Arab countries, the boiling fervor of the Islamic nation, and the transfer of the heat of indignation against the rulers and their regimes from country to country all the world's might is directed towards hijacking these revolutions - for the sake of maintaining the interests of the colonizers and aborting the return of Islam through the establishment of the Caliphate!
The long awaited UN sponsored ceasefire accompanied by a few monitors, does very little to prevent the brutality of Assad's regime against the Syrian people. Nor does it put a stop to the numerous killing fields that have become drenched in blood of innocent civilians and stained with the pure blood of martyrs. The ceasefire is part of an international effort to implement Annan's six point plan. Excerpts from Annan's on sided plan expose its ineffectiveness in halting the savagery of Assad's henchmen and their insatiable desire to spill the pure blood of people of Sham. For instance: "As these actions are being taken on the ground, the Syrian government should work with the envoy to bring about a sustained cessation of armed violence in all its forms by all parties with an effective United Nations supervision mechanism...Similar commitments would be sought by the envoy from the opposition and all relevant elements to stop the fighting and work with him to bring about a sustained cessation of armed violence in all its forms by all parties with an effective United Nations supervision mechanism."
How can the UN equate the violence perpetrated by Assad's tyrannical regime and those defending their lives and properties from Assad's thugs in equal terms? Who is the one that is relentlessly pursuing men, women, children and babies, and taking all measures to exterminate them from existence? Even the blind, deaf and the one with below average intelligence can see the heinous crimes of Assad's regime, smell the stench of its evil, and comprehend the wickedness of its leader. Then again! What can we expect from the UN, which is tool of the colonial powers and has a long history steeped in spearheading West's campaign to suppress Islam and Muslims.
The real criminals behind Assad and Kofi Annan's bloody proposal are Russia, China, US, and Europe. These are the very same countries that pretend to be the friends of Syria, but in reality are friends of Assad. Each power has its own interest in ensuring that Assad's bloody rule continues along with the oppression of the Syria people. For Russia and China, Assad's regime is a bulwark against political Islam, and is the only outlet for the Russians to project their naval power. On the other hand, European countries under the leadership of Britain view Assad's despotic regime as a last line of defense against the destabilization of the monarchies of the Gulf. Britain fears that Assad's instant fall could trigger a wave of popular unrest in the Gulf that could threaten its influence in the region. As for America, the longevity of Assad's rule is essentials for her plans to control the Levant and spread the tentacles of Iran.
Thus the kafir powers overlook the monstrous atrocities committed by Assad against our brothers and sisters in Syria, hoping to secure their interests and preventing the immediate collapse of Assad's regime until a time when a suitable alternative is found. Meanwhile, their collective aim is to gradually manage the collapse of Assad's oppressive rule, through ineffective peace proposals, and other initiative that are intended to mollify the wide spread angry sentiments in the Muslim world. What we are witnessing in Syria today is almost a rerun of the slaughter of the Muslims in Bosnia.
The only salvation for the Muslims of Sham is to band together and to reject every proposal advocated by the kafir powers through their agents in the UN and in the neighboring countries. Know that only through the re- establishment of the Khilafah "Caliphate" ar-Rashida they will be able to vanquish the Kafir powers, most notably America and Europe from the pure land of Sham.
Recall, how the first Khilafah "Caliphate" ar-Rashida forced Rome to flee Syria during the reign of Omar bin Al Khattab. It is reported that the defeated Heraclius bid a long farewell to Syria knowing that he would never return. He said,"Farewell, a long farewell to Syria, my fair province. Thou art an infidel's (enemy's) now. Peace be with you, O' Syria - what a beautiful land you will be for the enemy hands."
O Muslims of Sham! The time has come for you to repeat the feat of your forefathers, by joining forces with your brothers in the armed forces and send a befitting reply to the New Roman Empire (the West) -the main enemy of Muslims -and to vanquish her from this region for once and for all.
"O you who believe! answer (the call of) Allah and His Messenger when he calls you to that which gives you life; and know that Allah intervenes between man and his heart, and that to Him you shall be gathered." [TMQ: AL-Fal:24]

Pentagon increasing spy presence overseas:
The Pentagon is beefing up its spy service to send several hundred undercover intelligence officers to overseas hot spots to steal secrets on national security threats after a decade of focusing chiefly on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The move comes amid concerns that the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Pentagon's spy service, needs to expand operations beyond the war zones and to work more closely with the CIA, according to a senior Defense official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly about the classified program. The new Defense Clandestine Service will comprise about 15% of the DIA's workforce. They will focus on gathering intelligence on terrorist networks, nuclear proliferators and other highly sensitive threats around the world, rather than just gleaning tactical information to assist military commanders on the battlefield, the official said. "You have to do global coverage," the official said. Some of the new spies thus are likely to be assigned to targets that now are intelligence priorities, including parts of Africa and the Middle East where Al Qaeda and its affiliates are active, the nuclear and missile programs in North Korea and Iran, and China's expanding military.
Muslims in Europe face discrimination daily: Amnesty
European laws on what girls and women wear on their heads are encouraging discrimination against Muslims and against a religion that has been part of Europe's fabric for centuries, Amnesty International says in a new report. Extremist political movements targeting Muslim practices for criticism have enjoyed a rise in several European countries -- as witnessed by French far right leader Marine Le Pen's surprisingly strong showing in presidential elections this week. In that climate, the Amnesty report released Tuesday lists a raft of examples of discrimination against Muslims from Spain to the Netherlands and Turkey, spurred on by laws viewed as anti-Islam. The report, titled "Choice and Prejudice," pays special attention to national laws or local rules against wearing headscarves or face-covering Islamic veils. France and Belgium ban them outright, as do some towns in Spain and elsewhere. "Amnesty International is concerned that states have focused so much in recent years on the wearing of full-face veils, as if this practice were the most widespread and compelling form of inequality women in Europe have to face," the report says. Proponents, such as French President Nicolas Sarkozy, say face-covering veils imprison women and violate France's values of equality. France also bans headscarves in schools. The niqab, a veil with just a slit for the eyes, and the burqa, with a mesh covering for the eyes, are worn only by a very small minority of European Muslims. But banning them creates an atmosphere of suspicion of anyone with visibly Islamic dress, the Amnesty report says. It cites French Muslim women who wear headscarves, which cover the hair but leave the face exposed, as saying they have experienced epithets and public pressure since Sarkozy started calling for a face-veil ban.
US eyes options to restart Afghan peace talks:
President Barack Obama's administration, seeking to revive stalled Afghan peace talks, may alter plans to transfer Taliban detainees from Guantanamo Bay prison after its initial proposal fell foul of political opponents at home and the insurgents themselves. As foreign forces prepare to exit Afghanistan, the White House had hoped to lay the groundwork for peace talks by sending five Taliban prisoners, some seen as among the most threatening detainees at Guantanamo, to Qatar to rejoin other Taliban members opening a political office there. In return, the Taliban would make its own good-faith gestures, denouncing terrorism and supporting the hoped-for talks with the government of Afghan President Hamid Karzai. While that plan has not been scotched entirely, several sources familiar with preliminary discussions within the US government said the United States may instead, as an initial gesture meant to revive diplomacy, send one of those detainees directly to Afghan government custody. More than a year ago, the White House launched what began as a secretive diplomatic bid to coax the Taliban, the Islamist group that ruled Afghanistan until 2001, into peace talks. That campaign has become central to US strategy as officials conclude the Afghan war will not end on the battlefield alone. It remains far from clear whether the Taliban would embrace sharing power in Afghanistan and whether the militants are cohesive enough to agree on a joint diplomatic approach. But Washington's strategy, before a May summit of Nato leaders in Chicago, is to build on what officials see as military progress against the Taliban, and encouraging signs from the Afghan and Pakistani governments, to heap pressure on the group. "As we head into Chicago obviously we'll continue to highlight each of those (areas) and we'll continue to work with Congress," the US official said. The Chicago summit is expected to further detail plans for the withdrawal of most of Nato's 130,000 troops there by the end of 2014 and set the course for future ties between Afghanistan and the West.
US behind violence in Pakistan:
Pakistan and the US remain engaged in serious negotiations on how to bring normal relations back on track and resume their cooperation in the US-led so-called war on terror. The bilateral relations have been tense since the killing of 26 Pakistani soldiers by the US airstrikes at Pak-Afghan border in November last year--- something that prompted Pakistan to suspend the supply routes for the US-led forces in Afghanistan. A latest report by the Conflict Monitoring Center, a NGO working on violence in the region, reveals interesting facts on how tense relations between two countries has turned to be a blessing in disguise. The latest findings, point out that the tense relations between Pakistan and U.S, is "the most effective reason" behind considerable reduction of violence during last five months in country's tribal region. The report indicates that the frequency of US assassination drone strikes provoke militants to perpetrate more retaliatory violence that kills not only security personnel but also common people on the streets. Experts say the number of pro-Taliban militant attacks has slightly reduced in recent months. There are now fears among the people here that the relative calm may not last long. The findings on violence report that an overwhelming majority of people believe that if Pakistan ends its alliance with the US, the pro-Taliban militancy would gradually come to an end.
The crusader colonialists through their agent rulers are trying to uproot Islam from the Afghan society in minute details. This evil objective was very obvious from the previous actions of the government and now the spokesman of the NDS (National Directorate of Security) and Deputy Minister of Haj & Aqaf have put a stamp of acceptance on it.

Dear Sir
Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuhu
I write with reference to the article published in your daily on 14th April, 2012 entitled ‘19 Hizb-ut-Tahrir men booked under sedition law, jailed' written by a reporter, Ashraf Javed. I seek to bring to your attention a highly
To most people, Islam Karimov - the ruler of Uzbekistan is viewed as a brutal dictator, responsible for the massacre of thousands of innocent people in Andijan in 2005. Away from the bloody suppression of his people, Karimov and his henchmen are renowned for carrying out inexplicable acts of torture on political prisoners that routinely leave victims dead, or scarred for life. Now, another atrocious crime can be added Karmivo's catalogue of evil acts committed against his people.
Recently, the BBC reported that Karimov has been running a secret campaign to sterilize women, without their knowledge or consent. Speaking on a condition of anonymity from Tashkent, an Uzbek gynecologist revealed to the BBC the details of the programme. She said, "Every year we are presented with a plan. Every doctor is told how many women we are expected to give contraception to; how many women are to be sterilized. There is a quota. My quota is four women a month." The programme is not confined to the capital, and is operational in other parts of the country most notably in the Ferghana Valley and the Bukhara region-both of which are the hotbed of Islamic revival.
The first case of sterilization was reported in 2005, and in 2007 it was brought to the attention of UN. Then, the United Nations Committee Against Torture (CAT) reported forcible sterilizations and hysterectomies in Uzbekistan, but little notice was taken and the matter was quickly forgotten, until now. Given the regime's penchant for secrecy it is difficult to estimate how many women have been robbed of their God given right to have children, however, the numbers probably run into tens of thousands. In 2010, the Expert Working Group (EWG), which consists of independent experts conducted survey of medical professionals based in Uzbekistan, and collated evidence of some 80,000 sterilizations. The numbers are likely to be much larger as both medical professionals and victims often conceal the facts for fear of reprisal from Karmivo's henchmen.
But the real question is to ask why Karimov has resorted to such a heinous act against defenseless women who hardly pose a direct threat to his regime or to the longevity of his rein. For those who subscribe to Thomas Robert Malthus's theory about population control, Karmivo's actions are easy to explain. In fact Karimov would find himself in the company of distinguished Western thinkers who ardently support vile means to curb population growth.
There is another sinister motive that lurks deep within Karmivo's body and soul. It causes him much distress and is the foremost of his adversaries. This nemesis is political Islam that not only threatens to extinguish Karmivo's rule, but also the combined hegemony of both the West and Russia in the region. Having tried all the means available, Karimov has invoked sterilization of Muslim women as a desperate measure to fight the growth of political Islam that has now enveloped Uzbekistan into a renewed frenzy of Islamic revival, and is slowly but surely edging its way to a crescendo effect of giving birth to the Islamic State.
Because of this reason alone, both the West and Russia have overlooked Karimov's barbaric acts and the West especially, has made their coveted standard of human rights inapplicable to the plight of Uzbeks. Furthermore, they have buttressed his regime with money, weapons and experts to discover innovative ways to halt the growing tide of Islamic revival in the country.
Have not Karimov and his masters pondered on the circumstances surrounding the birth of Isa and Musa? Have they not reflected on how the tyrants of that age, King Harod and Pharaoh used all their might and wealth to extinguish the light of Allah and resorted to the killing of male babies to safeguard their kingdoms? Both of these ancient tyrants concocted sterilization programmes of their own and in the end, both failed to prevent the message of Allah (SWT) from reaching their populations. Allah says in the Quran about the disbelieving tyrants: "They wish to extinguish the light of Allah with their mouths, but Allah will not agree except that He will perfect His light, even though the Unbelievers may detest (it)." [TMQ: Al Tawba: 32]
Likewise, Karimov and his masters will be unable to prevent the sons and daughters of the Muslims of Uzbekistan from carrying the Islamic dawa to every city, town and village. By Allah's permission no corner of Uzbekistan will be left untouched by the Islamic revival, and every government official and associate of Karimov will hear the call for restoration of the Khilafah "Caliphate" and tremble with fear.
"Allah is the master of His affair, but most people do not know" [TMQ: Yusuf: 21]
