Honk! Honk!


Rickshaw in Lahore- A blessing!

Much of my time was spent on the roads today in the earlier part of the day.......wondering at regular intervals during my ride what kind of a news day would it be like....now that Mullah Birader and two other Taliban leaders are behind bars and the government and judiciary have settled all diputes for the time being at least and Dubai Police is around 99% sure that Mossad was involved in the death of Hamas commander,Mabhouh.
Mind blowing and Out of this world are two adjectives that you find judges of different competition shows on tv using these days to describe performances of the contestants. I want to use these two terms to describe the scenes I saw outside a leading English medium school here in Lahore. On the five lane boulevard, two lanes were being used as parking lot by the people who had come to pick up students. These abandoned vehicles were serving as a major block for the otherwise fast moving traffic there. So there it goes..the first lesson of discipline being taught to the students at thier own homes!

Dumbfounded , I decided to ponder over how would authorities in Dubai deal with the involvement of Israeli spy agency and with how much force will the British authorities be confronting Israeli authorities over forging British passports. The catch is that both Israel and Britain share a common threat from Islamic militants.
Al Mabhouh- The slain Hamas leader
