1st of all Thank you all for noticing my absence and remembering me, Thanx buddies ... and Thanx to Tariq Bhai for telling me abt that and messaging me and updating on my behalf , Thanx ya Buddy .... sorry for making you guyz worried.... feeling sorry of being a reason to make u guyz worried ..
Hi ya All ...
Sorry for been out of touch without leaving any clue.... as Tariq mentioned, i m fine ... nothing bad happened to me and my family due to flood, Alhumdu-LILLAH .... since this Flood starteed and left a long story of destruction all over my country and demolished everything that came in its way :( ..... a huge destruction all over the country... since then i always feel worried and sad to watch TV or to use internet bcoze whenever i come to use internet i dont know why i found my self un-willingly to search and see wat's happening here in my country , and wat's going on in my country is really disturibng .... so , i suddenly walked off to internet and TV .... i removed my internet modem and placed that in a drawer ...... my Father and my uncles trried and still trying to help them financialy by sending the the items they need (they sent that stuff through army relief camp) but its a huge disaster and destruction so need some extra-ordinary efforts to come out of this disaster... they need food, they need clean water, they need medicine , they need shelter and they need clothes too , bcoze flood not only destructed their houses but took away all the things that wwas in their home and the remained clothes and other things are not in condition to use them.... .... the positive side of all this scenario is , people are working voloutarily , students of many colleges and univerities spending their time on the flood relief stalls to manage the stuf and make complete packets of the things to make it easy to distribute all over the country ..... but overall situation isn't so good they need stuff to make packet of and to distribute that into fllood affecties ....
Best Regards
Take Care

It's so good to hear that you're safe and well. I am so disheartened about what is happening in Pakistan. My country has set the table for this "war" on NGO's and it makes me ill. Daily, I hear anti-Muslim hysteria in the US and any organization that tries to improve the lives of Muslims is branded as terrorist supporters. It is sick. It is all politics. And it makes me ashamed of my countrymen who are so incredibly ignorant. Americans won't even send aid to Pakistan privately because the propaganda in this country has made people believe that all people from Pakistan are terrorists. And if anything, the climate of hatred in the US is getting worse. More intolerance and more hatred from my fellow Americans. People in the world need help, but too many Americans would prefer to "nuke them all." And meanwhile, our government is supporting a corrupt government in Pakistan because it suits us politically to do so. Just as in Iraq, the US knows full well that the money they send will be stolen by corrupt "leaders", but we send it anyway because the corrupt leaders let us do whatever we want, like the continued war of drones that is waged daily in Pakistan.
I hope your beautiful country can survive. It will be in spite of American help and not because of it.

Andy,
When the earth quake came,Islamic NGOs were ahead of everyone,they worked with every resource they had,media reported that too,after that lots of em have been banned,but they keep changing names to help people,but the govt won't let most of them,lately it seems like any NGO with islamic name feels like a threat to govt and its allies.
Not all Islamic NGOs are so called "lashkar-e-taiba" which i am not even sure actually exists.But yeah this kinda negligence can create a lot of individuals with so full of hatred and angst that they can turn in to terrorists and suicide bombers.
