Shabana Rehman Nude Photos
Bjørn Stærk is getting a lot of hits from Pakistanis searching for nude photos of Norwegian-Pakistani comedienne Shabana Rehman. So am I. And since I'm always interested in getting more Muslim visitors, I decided to make a post called "Shabana Rehman Nude Photos", which will appear on a Google search. No, I don't have any, but I want more traffic:Shabana Rehman 1 - Pakistani editors 0
Shabana Rehman about the negative coverage of her in Pakistani newspapers: "Over the last two days I've received over a hundred offers of marriage from the readers of precisely these newspapers, who want to get in touch with me, who wonder if I can get them a Norwegian passport, or if they can buy nude pictures of me, or buy my body, or put them in touch with potential Norwegian wives, the letters decorated with Western pornographic pictures. That's how much the condemnation of hypocritical and ethically cripled Pakistani editors is worth." And let me add that my blog is getting a lot of hits these days from Pakistanis searching for nude pictures of Shabana. The only one I know of is this, but congrats for looking. Perhaps I can interest you in some of her ideas instead?
Shabana Rehman: The Migration of the Heart
My father died in 1996. He was only 52. There was nothing unusual about his death. But there was about his final wish. He asked to be buried where his children, the next generation, lived, and not in the country of his ancestors. This is an unusual choice for people in his generation of immigrants. A proud Pakistani, buried in Norwegian soil. As I watched his coffin being lowered into the earth, a truth struck me with a force I could not escape. It was like being confronted with an Icelandic vulcano.
For there, by my father's grave, I saw no roots. For a person who takes for granted the community one belongs to, to stand there and see no roots it was like time stood still. By my father's grave I saw something different. I saw a dream of freedom. Who then was I, where do I belong, if this was my father's goodbye? Last week the answer came to me in form of a miracle: I became the aunt of a little princess. When I looked into her eyes for the very first time, I saw neither a Norwegian nor a Pakistani, a Muslim nor a Christian. I saw a free human being. She was also born with extra large feet. That is good. She'll need them. That generation is going to make new history, for they represent the migration of the heart.
My father had a dream: To live in a country where he could escape the hell of poverty, where you do not measure a person's dignity by where or as who you are born. Most people believe in roots, in differences, in categories. By my father's grave I could find no roots. He was one of many parents who throughout their lives had fought to give their children a more dignified life than he himself had been offered. There we stood, before his gravem and watched as nationality, religion, ethnicity and roots were buried, in a country that he was neither born in nor felt at home in. And yet it became a powerful symbol to us, his descendants. By my father's grave I saw no roots. I saw only a dream, a dream of the emmigration of the heart, and the immigration of freedom. I saw a dream of freedom, and the price he paid for it. The migration of the heart is the dream of freedom. That is my message to you today.

How lucky the new little princess is to have an aunt like you to help her through life, but don't be surprised if she considers herself Norwegian, not Pakistani.
After all, being a Pakistani is a rather new phenomenon. If Gandhi hadn't brow-beaten the British into forcing India to partition off a large corner of its territory and give it to their minority Muslim community, there would be no Pakistan. You'd all still be Indians and your loyalty and roots would be to Delhi instead of Islamabad.
In fact, it's striking how many similarities there are between Israel and Pakistan. Both were created as a result of the British domination in their respective corners of the world. The Muslims taking territory away from the majority Hindus, Buddhists, Sikhs, etc. was perfectly okay with the world community, while Israel and the Jews . . . well that's an old story and why bother repeating it, except to say it was decided not perfectly okay with the world community.
An important difference between these two countries created in the 20th century is that Pakistan's neighbors haven't been trying to push them into the sea since the first moment of its existence as Israel's neighbors have been doing. Yet Israel is a force for good in world. It's a democracy whose Arab citizens enjoy full rights even to being members of the Knesset. They have been in the forefront of medical and agricultural research while enduring a relentless war with terrorists, while Pakistan, let's say hasn't exactly been a force for good in the world, but has instead added to the unrest and violence.
ch.
Hindus and Buddhists who were the original inhabitants of the Indian continent welcomed the Muslims immigrants and they lived together amicably for centuries until civil unrest was fomented by the Communists with Gandhi's willing collaboration.
India was forced through world opinion to accede to Muslim demands and partition their country into two and finally three parts (Bangladesh was originally part of Pakistan) in order stop the violence and pander to Muslims.
Of course it didn't stop the violence and the world a far more dangerous place today with Pakistan heavily armed including nuclear weapons and it didn't even stop the bloodshed in India because Muslims are still fighting for more Indian territory almost a hundred years later.
The young aunt who wrote the charming story posted here probably doesn't know any more history than you do. The schools have been very successful in their non-teaching or selective teaching of history.

Erp: Do you have even the slightest idea what you are talking about? Muslims attacked and massacred Indians one thousand years ago.
The history of that region of the world is complicated and convoluted and this isn't the place for an in depth history lesson.
The point that I was trying to make is that Pakistan was made up out of whole cloth from India and prior to that point the various religions had been living together more or less amicably for, you note I said, hundreds, not thousands, of years.
Since the non-Muslims were in the majority by then and Muslims were in the minority, they must have been welcome because the majority populations were living with them in peace.
The reason I'm making this point is because a lot of the anti-American hatred I believe is because of anti-Israel and anti-Semitism. Anti-Israel because of the belief that land was taken from the indigenous Muslims and given to the Jews and I'd like people to realize that this is exactly the same way that Pakistan was created.
