The truth is what is it, not what should be - what should be is a dirty lie. Accusing someone is easy but proving the accuse guilty is a real pain in back . So how about filing a lawsuit and bringing culprit to the justice rather than presenting the case on media?

KARACHI: Senior journalist Hamid Mir, who was wounded after being targeted in Karachi, still holds the Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) responsible for orchestrating the attack.

This was conveyed on Thursday by his brother while speaking to the media outside the Aga Khan Hospital, where the wounded journalist is being treated for his injuries.

Amir Mir also stuck a further defiant tone stating that Geo TV network and his brother had faced the similar circumstances when former military ruler Gen (retd) Pervez Musharraf had imposed an emergency in the country and shut down TV channels in 2007.

He made that perdition even before the incident or rather washed the soap before his hands.
Changing statement now will be like the last nail in the Geo coffin and no body calls himself .....a liar.
Some one should ask him, what price does it take for a man to sell his honour and turn traitor.

Taking on the ISI is a well thought out article that partly answers your quite valid concerns I must admit.



What a bunch of garbage trotted out as an argument. If you represent the level of IQ in your beloved ISI, then god save this world. Eerily similar to an argument (highly specious/deceptive/self-serving) the whole muslim/islamic world make "A muslim cannot be a terrorist because if he does commit terror then he cannot be a muslim since Islam does not allow it."

KARACHI: Senior journalist Hamid Mir, who is currently being treated after escaping an attack on his life in Karachi last week, blamed ‘ISI within ISI’ for orchestrating the attack in an interview with BBC Urdu on Saturday.

Speaking during his first interaction with the media after the attack, Geo TV’s senior anchorperson said that he has been threatened again to leave the country by same elements who he alleged were behind the attack.

He said he has been told to leave Karachi and Pakistan as “it will be a long fight.”

“People visit me in guise of friends but leave after conveying threatening messages of the foes,” said the senior journalist answering a question about source of the recent threats.

“They say you better leave Pakistan…it’s not safe for you anymore. Only yesterday a highly responsible person came to visit me and told me that I will be attacked again.”

Mir said the people who were threatening had always been a part of the country’s strong military establishment and they were conveying messages of differing nature to him.

He said those who keep an eye on journalists’ movement and tape their telephone calls were behind the attack.

“Only these people may know what flight Hamid Mir will take to reach Karachi. Which car will pick him up at the airport and at what time he will come out from the airport. They knew where to attack the car and chose a corner where CCTV camera wasn’t functioning,” he added.

The journalist said he was pointing towards ‘ISI within IS,’ adding that a person namely “Major Wajahat” called him during a live show and despite giving the authorities all the details nothing has been done as yet.

“The most worrisome fact is that Jihadist outfits attached to Taliban, which have been banned by the government, are protesting in favour of ISI,” he said.

“These banned jihadist groups which are protesting against me and in favour of ISI, aren’t these ISI within ISI?” he questioned.

Hamid Mir, in his official statement through his brother Amir Mir on Thursday, had held the Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) responsible for orchestrating the attack.

He had said the ISI officials were apparently unhappy about his famous talk show, Capital Talk, being broadcast on Mama Qadir’s long march over missing Baloch persons. Mir claimed that the intelligence agency was also unhappy of his criticism aimed at the ISI in different Capital Talk shows.
