Bin Laden's ghost is behind the hacking of US Defense Contractors Network : CIA



Bin Laden's ghost has broken into the security networks of Lockheed Martin Corp (LMT.N) and several other US military contractors, said CIA spokesman.

The hacker breached security systems designed to keep out intruders by creating duplicates to "SecureID" electronic keys from EMC Corp's (EMC.N) RSA security division, said the witness who was too scared from Bin Laden's ghost to discuss the matter.

It was not immediately clear what kind of data, if any, was stolen by the hacker. But the networks of Lockheed and other military contractors contain sensitive data on future weapons systems as well as military technology currently used in battles in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Zardari wanted to sale out Dr. Khan, but IAEA didn't paid enough : US Cable


Months before he became President of Pakistan, Asif Ali Zardari told the United States Ambassador in Pakistan that if he had his way, he would allow the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to question Abdul Qadeer Khan, the nuclear scientist accused of running a proliferation racket, but IAEA must workout a business deal.

Mr. Zardari is quoted as saying so in a U.S. diplomatic cable dated April 18, 2008 (150415: secret), accessed by WikiLeaks.

In April 2008, a few days after the Pakistan People's Party (PPP) took office, Ambassador Anne W. Patterson and Deputy Chief of the Mission Peter Bodde met Mr. Zardari, the party's co-chairperson, to seek assurances that the new government would not release Dr. Khan.

The PPP leader told the U.S. officials: “I told Foreign Minister [Shah Mahmud] Qureshi, who has no decision-making role on this issue, to stop talking about Khan.” He alleged that “false information was being leaked” to embarrass the PPP.

“If I had my way,” said Mr. Zardari, “I would give the IAEA access to Khan, but they must workout a business deal.”

Giving away no secret about how Mr. Zardari demands bribery, but IAEA being a global organization was not in a position to fulfill Zardari's demands, the cable mentioned.

President has not thrown parliament's resolutions into the dustbin : Spokesman

Farhatuallah Babar said "There is no truth in reports that President Asif Ali Zardari has thrown  parliament's resolutions of October 2008 and May 2011, demanding an immediate halt to drone attacks, into the dustbin."

President's spokesman said that he has checked the President's dustbin, and it contains the following trash items:
  1. Wrappers and sticks of lollypops that Mrs Clinton brought.
  2. Files of broken promises and political agreements.
  3. Papers of so called national security affairs.
  4. Empty bottles of President's favorite drinks. 
  5. Empty packets and ashes of imported cigars.

Karzai issues 'last warning' to America

Afghan President Hamid Karzai called on the US military to avoid operations that kill Afghans, saying it was his "last warning" to Washington after many people died in an air strike.

Reacting to the alleged death of fighter cocks, hens, pigeons and cows along with many other people in an air strike in the southern province of Helmand, Karzai said such incidents were "murdering of Afghanistan's people and animals."

"President Hamid Karzai called this incident a great mistake and the murdering of Afghanistan's people and animal, and on behalf of the Afghan people gives his last warning to the US troops and US officials in this regard. Moreover, the president is upset at the fact that he does not enjoy the luxury of issuing another warning, in case such incident occurs again" his office said, adding that he "strongly condemned" the non-availability of warnings.

Update 31st May: Afghan President Hamid Karzai said the US-led Nato military in Afghanistan risks becoming a “master force” if aerial bombings which cause civilian casualties continue.

America provided Orions and took them back : Gilani


Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani has said that "According to my knowledge P-3C Orion Aircrafts were provided by America, and there shouldn't be any issue if the American have taken those aircrafts back. May be they have some better option for Pakistan in mind? In politics this type of give and take is a norm and opposition shall not use this incident for point scoring."

Israeli PM ordered US Congressmen to do sit-ups


Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrived Washington angrily and ordered US congressmen to do sit-ups as a punishment.

Earlier, PM Netanyahu dishonored US President during a joint press conference, when he blatantly rejected Obama's proposal of re-instatement of 1967 border.

Later on Prime Minister Netanyahu addressed US Congress furiously, and kept ordering the US congressmen to do sit-ups as a symbol of punishment to the American Nation. The congressmen obeyed Netanyahu twenty times because they fear Israeli controlled jewish lobby.

What else they could do? The poor congressmen didn't stood a chance in front of Israeli PM, i.e. the PM of real world power.

Update, 29th May: It has been learnt that US Congressmen Jared Schutz Polis (From Colorado) and John Herbert Adler (From New Jersey) are still present in the House, i.e. for doing sit-ups. Some observers feel that currently both these congressmen have even crossed the physiological barrier of a million sit-ups. That's a record indeed.

Osama was a true supporter of democracy : Nawaz Sharif


Pakistan Muslim League-N Chief Nawaz Sharif has said Osama bin Laden's sad demise is a big loss for democratic forces in Pakistan.

Nawaz Sharif said "Osama bin Laden was a devote muslim and a true supporter of democracy. I met him several times for strengthening democracy in Pakistan and found him very generous. Osama's friendship and love for Pakistan was beyond limits. He cared a lot for the people of Pakistan and during my second tenure, he gifted a Dialysis Machine to Military Hospital Rawalpindi. But unfortunately he was not able to take benefit from that machine, and died of a kidney failure... Pakistan has indeed lost a true friend."

He further said that "Osama bin Laden spoke publicly against the non-democratic policies of Saudi government, for which the Saudis banished him. Isn't this democracy?"
