Pakistan’s Ambassador Husian Haqqani should be fired for defending US attacks on Pakistan
MR. HAQQANI DOES NOT REPRESENT PAKISTANIS…. HE MISREPRESENTS PAKISTAN
The joke goes as follows. A scorpion and a frog wanted to cross the river. The scorpion asked the frog to give him a ride. The frog said, this is very strange, you will sting me and I will die. The scorpion said, how could that be, if I sting you we will both drown. The skeptical frog again asked the scorpion to promise not to sting him. The scorpion promised the frog that he would not sting him.
Half way across the river the frog was shocked to feel the pain of the scorpion’s deadly sting on his back. He started to drown. Right before he went down for the last time, he asked the scorpion–you know by stinging me, you have promised us a watery grave for both of us–why did you sting me knowing well that this will kill us both. The drowning scorpion looked at the frog and said–”I cannot change my basic instinct–I could not stop myself–I had to sting you even though it is not logical”. Both drowned in the river and washed away by the water into oblivion.
Mr. Husain Haqqani is the same way. He cannot change his stripes. He is like a scorpian who has to kill his benfactors. Mr. Haqqani has spent the past decade behaving like an ugly American and advising the Right wing Neocon US think tanks on how to deal with Pakistan using the Neocon stick. How could he change just becuase he is sitting in the Embassy of Paksitan?
Mr. Haqqani cannot change!
How could a leapord change his stripes?
How could Pakistan trust this horrible excuse of a man who has spent his life blaming Muslims for every evil on earth and blaming Pakistan for all problems in Afghanstan.

So why did Mr. Zardari appoint Mr. Haqqani as Ambassador? The reason is that Mr. Haqqaniused his influence with his paymasters to pave the road for the Zardari family’s return to Pakistan eliminating the corruption cases in Switzerland and in Pakistan. For this link Mr. Zardari awarded Mr. Haqqani the Ambassadorship.
It is beyond comprehension that Pakistan’s Ambassador to the USA would be supporting the American actions in attacking Pakistani troops. What was Mr. Zardari thinking when he appointed this dispicable man to one of the most importat Pakistan positions in the world–the ambassadorship in Washington?
Husain Haqqani: Dangerous 5th column or selfish opportunist?
Pakistan’s New Ambassador: Traitor or Naïve fool?
Mr. Kashif Abbasi of ARY TV conducted a very agressive interview with Mr. Haqqani on June 19th, 2008. It was disgusting to see Mr. Haqqani defend the US position and it was nauseating to hear him support the US attacks on Pakistan. For most Pakistanis it was rebarbative, repugnant, repulsive, and revolting to hear the obsequious Mr. Haqqani repudiated Pakistani sovereignty and give us a sermon how to kowtow to a superpower. He gave his stump speech which he gives to his Neocon buddies in Washington. Of course all of Pakistan is incensed and livid. The reaction has been explosive. It was Kashif keep up your relentless pursuit of this Hudson Institute employee who is more loyal to the Stars and Stripes, AIPAC and JINSA than to Pakistan.
Mr. Potato-Chips goes to Washington:-Neocon from Pakistan
Pakistan’s New Ambassador: Traitor or Naïve fool? Rupee News has tried to ascertain if Mr. Haqqani is naive, just an opportunitst, a pawn in the hands of the “doers and shakers”, or part of a diabolical conspiracy to place Manuchrian candidates in positions of power within the Pakistani government
Haqqani and his wife, PPP MNA Farahnaz Isphani, worked to cultivate Asif Zardari as well, unlike many other unwise piplyas (Amin Fahim, Naheed Khan, Senator Abbasi and some lesser beings) who today have been frozen out all because their universe was Benazir Bhutto. They looked upon Zardari as a satellite. Didn’t we all? But fate had other plans for the former “first gentleman.” Serendipity or Fortuitous happentance by Anum Niaz
Mr. Potato-Chips goes to Washington:-Neocon from Pakistan. The “wannabee gora” sees no impact of the historical issues to Pakistani and other Muslims societies, and squarly lay the blame on internal factors which are depicted as “triba”, agressive, bent of world domination and have an intense hatred of the West. Mr. Haqqani seems to adhere to the cliche “They hate us because of our freedoms.”
Of all the years we have watched Mr. Kashif Abbasi the epitome of his journalistic career was when he aggressively challenged the shameless Neocon apologist for the Americans. It was the most shining example of journalistic bravery that I have seen on ARY.
Mr. Haqqani is a security risk?
Mr. Husain Haqqanishould be fired with immediate effect.
First generals, then politicians and now diplomats following the same route and tone. Not to surprise what Haqqani has ‘explored’ they are all ‘knotted’ to their donors. He has been accommodated and was used as a middle man to broke deals with others. He has been rewarded and consequently he is watching the interests of his masters and employers to ensure the masses back at home that ‘YOU’ BEGGERS ARE NOT CHOSERS.
Similar sense came from Dr. Maleeha L[o]dhi. In an interview with Dr. Moeed Peerzada she recalled that after 9/11 Pakistan was facing threats from India and Pakistan had no choice but to comply with the US demands. Further that UN Security Council resolution to fight against terrorism left no room for us to scrutinise or debate these demand. However in the next moment she sidelined herself from that decision she was a part of that in her personal point of view India was not able to attack Pakistan as nuclear deterrence compelled both states to avoid escalating the conflict to nuclear threshold.
She had anticipated such conclusions but she did not present her assessments or resist the government decision of complying with all the US demands. Even in case she was rejected she could have registered her accounts by resigning from her duties. It seems that high profile jobs, material benefits prevailed over the duty to serve the national interests.
These are criminal acts. These people enjoying the benefits and exploiting the resources of the states did not show honesty to their jobs, loyalty to their country or the morality that they are ruining the future of their children and the integrity of their nation state.
We agree that Mr. Haqqani is a criminal and should be stripped of his ambassadorship and tried as a traitor.
For the past decade his fasutian deals with the Hudson Institute and his paychecks from various think tanks have made him rich. Now he forgets who he is representing.
We feel sorry for him. His days in Washington are numbered. A tidal wave of anti-Haqqani sentiments will overpower the Zardari paper tiger. We are shocked that Nawaz Sharif is mumb about Haqqani. The silence is deafening!
Mr. Haqqani does not have formal traning to become our representative. He should take some classes in contructive diplomacy or if he is too timid to do that, he should watch ambassadors of (not UK or France) but that of Sudan, Keneya, Nepal, Bangladesh , Bhotan and learn how to represent his country in an honorable way.
Sad to say but even a prostitue does some bargain before selling herself but these heartless thugs sold our country for nothing.
It would be naive to consider that Mr. Haqqani’s handicap is “lack of training”. Mr. Haqqani is rotten to the core. Mr. Haqqani has spent the last decade disparaging Muslims in general, and Pakistanis in particular. His argument is the same as that of the Neocons–”blame Muslims first” for everything.
Mr. Haqqani does not take into consideration any historical factors or any facts on the ground.
His nonsense has created huge problems for American Muslims as well as for Pakistan.
He has been sending the wrong message. This is not simply a matter of opinion. Mr. Haqqani is a very dangerous individual who should not be getting two paychecks, one from the Pakistani government and the other from The Hudson Institute and other Neocon organizations.
Mr. Haqqani is paroting the same balderdash that he has always peddled–now he is doing it from the Pakistani embassy.
Every word Haqqani said was true. You guys cannot accept that logical arguments made your hero Kashif look like a fool. Haqqani is a great representative of Pakistan. We better clean up our jihadi mess rather than trying to emulate Saddam Hussain.
Ram Chandra welcome to the discussion….weaned on the milk of Neocons we see….your boss Haqqani made millions selling his soul to Faust..did he give you your cut?….
…and may we ask WHO funded OBL and Trained and created the Taliaban? (Read Congress Rohrabaker’s statement)
Who supplied the “mujahideen” and extolled them about Islam, and who invited the Taliban to the White House? Isn’t Mr. Hamid Karzai a self professed Taliban?
Mr. Haqqani is a traitor and he will meet the same fate as others like him have achieved—total oblivion after his 15 minutes of fame are over.
this haqqani should be fired.he is such a stupid person i have ever seen in my life. these kind of people are not PAKISTANI,they are Indian,Israeli or Americans or all in one enemy of Pakistan.
he has no manner to talk in front of tv.He has no idea that they always using the name of Z BHUTTO who said in UN we eat gahse(grass) but fight for ever for pried.Z BHUTTO did not like Americans,remember ppp jialas so called.
He is an idiot… cant belive an ambassador talking like this….same …fire him now.
Mr Haqqani’s views were too much inclined towards US support. I watched his interview with Kashif Abbasi. Instead of answering the questions from Abbasi he was posing questions to Abbasi like Mr Abbasi is responsible for all that mess. He did not seem to have manner of discussion. Repeatedly he interrupted Abbasi and did not allow him to complete his sentence. May be he think if i let this guy speak he will overcome on me as Abbasi is traditionally an aggressive anchor. From a viewer’s point of view we want to listen from Haqqani the interviewees answering the interviewer NOt the other way round. Overall Haqqani’s attitiude was disappointing. In Geo’s program ‘Hum Sab Umeed say Hain’ it was jokingly said. Pakistan choses the kind of Ambassador in USA who is also equally capable of being chosen as a US Ambassador in Pakistan. This skit seems to match very well for Mr Haqqani.
Hussain Haqqani always asserts Pakistan’s policy in Washington. He is trusted advisor of late Pakistani Prime Minister, Ms. Benazir Bhutto. As a close confidante of Asif Zardari, Pakistan’s president, Mr. Haqqani is seen by many in Islamabad as the country’s unofficial foreign minister. Haqqani’s most important brief is that he is encouraging the US to put is relationship with Pakistan on a long-term footing – an elusive Pakistani goal almost since the country was created 62 years ago. Haqqani met more congressmen in his one year in office than all Pakistani ambassadors combined in US.He has excellent relationship with US media and always uses his connections for the benefit of the country. Haqqani’s top assignments include helping Pakistani officials understand the United States and communicate with Americans, and guiding them through their U.S. visits. This writing does not depict anything regarding his duties but personal vendetta with him. Hussain Haqqani’s effort for getting aid from U.S is clear to everyone. President Zardari’s previous visits have been successful mainly due to Hussain Haqqani’s efforts. He arranged meetings with U.S official in less time and convinced them to listen and support us. How could Zardari think of sacking his most competent envoy who is doing difficult job brilliantly? It was not duty of author to remain with letter until it reaches the destination. Why would Haqqani try to sabotage Pakistan’s interests? It is totally rubbish to speculate such things without truth.
We have argued with Mr. Haqqani way before he became Ambassador. We have all the emails he wrote to us abusing Pakistan and all Muslims. It is a matter of public record, much of it written in his own Anti-Pakistan book. There is no personal vandetta, we have praised the Zardari government in their recent victory in London. Mr. Haqqani of course is the American Ambassador in Washington–he only represents US interests not Pakistani interests.
He is reviled in Pakistan and disliked by Pakistani Americans. He doesn’t even call Pakistani-Americans for discussions and parties because of the fear of being asked awkward questions.
He does not appear on Pakistani TV channels after Kashif Abbasi gave it to him.
We have published Mr. Haqqani’s exact quotes, and excerpts from his book. You have been unable to refute anything your uncle has written. At least have the decency to use your real name.
