Terror Speaks: Inside Pakistan’s Terrorism Discourse & National Action Plan – P. Sahill
This article, employing a poststructuralist Critical Discourse Analysis, reveals cracks, discrepancies, and inconsistencies in Pakistan’s discourse on terrorism and practice.
Pamir Sahil argues that Pakistan continuously constructs a “monstrous enemy” and magnifies it in a way that conceals alternative representations of reality that could show that the state, by presenting itself as a victim of terrorism, is using phenomena of political violence to serve its political objectives inside and outside the boundaries of the state.
The article argues that after a militant attack on a school in northwest Pakistan, critical, liberal, and dissenting narratives mingled with the dominant state discourse in a fashion that strengthen illiberal practices in the country, thus undermining the ideals of democracy.

Here’s why the West is losing the war against forces of Islamo-fascism – My talk from 2011
On the day ISIS beheaded Briton David Haines, I remembered my talk at IdeaCity in Toronto in 2011 when I came from my hospital bed where I was fighting cancer to discuss why I thought the West was (and still is) failing in its fight against the cancer of Islamofascism.
Thought I should share the talk with you now that five years have gone by and a new administration, free of Muslim Brotherhood infiltrators is in the White House.
Ideacity, also known as ‘Canada’s Premier Meeting of the Minds’, is an eclectic gathering of artists, adventurers, authors, designers, filmmakers, inventors and technologists. “Fifty of the planet’s brightest minds converge in Toronto each June to speak to a highly engaged audience. Only 600 are privileged to attend,” says their website. In April 2011, I had the privilege of being invited by founder Moses Znaimer to speak at IdeaCity 2011.

Indian Mullah reveals his loyalties. Says Muslim invaders from Arabia and Central Asia who plundered India are heroes!
Watch this clip to see for yourself an Islamist reveal his true ugly inner self for all of India to see on live TV. (The debate is in Hindi and Urdu languages and without sub titles.)
Watch and weep.
Maulana Ansar Raza of India has pulled the wool over Indian eyes by posturing himself as a patriotic son of India who stands firmly behind India’s secularism and is a guardian of the country’s frontiers.
His rhetoric and cliche-ridden angry statements scares non-Muslim Indians into silence, lest they be labelled as racist anti-Muslim Islamophobes, a tactic that works for most pan-Islamist Indian right wing Muslim clerics who clamour for seperate laws for Muslims in India, demand Sharia laws, and work to impose the burqa and niqab over Indian women.
But on Friday December 4, 2015, Maulana Ansar Raza didn’t have to debate Hindu Indians, but a Canadian Muslim of Indian ancestry who stated to the Islamic cleric’s face that he was dissimulating his contempt for India under camouflaged double-speak that concealed his true feelings towards Hindustan.
As I refused to let go of him and grilled him, the Islamic cleric’s outward contrived Indian patriotism fell to pieces and his true inner self was revealed.
Losing his temper, Maulana Ansar Raza blurted out in anger that he considered the Arab and Persian Islamic invaders of India from the 7th to the 11th century as his heroes. The very men who plundered and pillaged India, destroying Hindu temples and abducting tens of thousdands of Hindu girls who were later sold as sex slaves in the Arab World, as his heroes.
I asked him what he thought of the radical Islamic extremist Mogul Emperor Aurangzeb, the man who organised a genocide of Hindus, who arranged the public killing of the head of India’s Shia Dawoodi Bohra Muslims, who celebrated the torture and death of India’s assimilated Muslim Sufi saints, murdered his elder brother Prince Dara Shikoh and paraded his brother’s head through the streets of Delhi, who imprisoned to death his own father the maker of the Taj Mahal, who killed his son and sister.
True to my expectation, the Indian cleric on TV blurted out that he considered the mass murderer Mogul Emperor Aurangzeb, not just his hero, but also a ‘Wali’, an Arabic word meaning “custodian”, “protector”, “helper”. (In Islam, the phrase ولي الله walī allāh can be used to denote one vested with the “authority of God”)
With this the Indian cleric on TV had been completely stripped of his false secular camouflage and what emerged was a rabic India hater whose heroes were people who invaded India, subjugated it, and then conducted mass atrocities over India’s Hindu population, yet today blackmail the rest of India by screaming ‘intolerance’

Here is the full unedited version of the ZeeNews TV Network debate:
Who do Muslim Mullahs consider ‘Kaafirs’? They often lie, but this UK documentary exposes what is really said in Mosques.
On my Indian ZeeNews TV show, ‘Fatah Ka Fatwa’, Indian Mullahs and even supposedly liberal Muslim feminists dodge the truth and lie that Kaafir is not a pejorative word to demean non-Muslims, i.e. Christians, Hindus, Jews, and Atheists.
Now hear for yourself what happens in British Mosques where sermons are in English and cannot be hidden behind claims of incorrect translation of Arabic or archaic Urdu.
