Dinakaran probe: jurists oppose member Nagendar Sharma, Hindustan Times New Delhi, January 18, 2010 Top jurists on Monday opposed the inclusion of senior Supreme Court lawyer P.P. Rao in the three-member probe panel to inquire into the corruption allegations against Karnataka High Court Chief Justice P.D. Dinakaran. “Rao had given legal opinion to Dinakaran in December when the judge had come to Delhi to meet him. It is a clear case of conflict of interest,” said former law minister and veteran lawyer Shanti Bhushan. “He must immediately voluntarily opt out of the probe committee, otherwise we will file a formal application for his recusal.” Rajya Sabha chairman, Hamid Ansari, had named Rao to the probe panel, to be headed by Justice V.S. Sirpurkar of the Supreme Court. Andhra Pradesh High Court Chief Justice, A.R. Dave is the third member of the committee. The probe panel was formed as part of the impeachment proceedings initiated against Dinakaran in Rajya Sabha last month. Contacted for his response, Rao said, “He had called on me out of courtesy during one of his visits to Delhi, that is all. Asked whether Dinakaran had sought legal advice from him, Rao said, “He is not facing any case that he would require such an advice. I had suggested to him, to ask for an inquiry under the Commission of Inquiry Act, on the allegations against him.” Dinakaran had sought appointments with many top lawyers, but succeeded in meeting only a few of them, HT has learnt. Activists of the Campaign for Judicial Accountability, which first raised concerns about Dinakaran’s promotion to the Supreme Court, are understood to have already raised the issue with Ansari. Former Supreme Court judge, Justice P.B. Sawant, who headed the panel that probed allegations against Justice V. Ramaswami, when an impeachment motion was moved against him in 1993, said Rao should opt out. “If there is even an iota of doubt, it is better to avoid any further controversy,” he said. http://www.hindustantimes.com/Dinakaran-probe-jurists-oppose-member/H1-Article1- 499094.aspx .

Pakistan’s ‘Mainstreaming’ Jihadis Vinay Kaura, Aparna Pande The emergence of the religious right-wing as a formidable political force in Pakistan seems to be an outcome of direct and indirect patron- age of the dominant military over the years. Ever since the creation of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan in 1947, the military establishment has formed a quasi alliance with the conservative religious elements who define a strongly Islamic identity for the country. The alliance has provided Islamism with regional perspectives and encouraged it to exploit the concept of jihad. This trend found its most obvious man- ifestation through the Afghan War. Due to the centrality of Islam in Pakistan’s national identity, secular leaders and groups find it extreme- ly difficult to create a national consensus against groups that describe themselves as soldiers of Islam. Using two case studies, the article ar- gues that political survival of both the military and the radical Islamist parties is based on their tacit understanding. It contends that without de-radicalisation of jihadis, the efforts to ‘mainstream’ them through the electoral process have huge implications for Pakistan’s political sys- tem as well as for prospects of regional peace. Keywords: Islamist, Jihadist, Red Mosque, Taliban, blasphemy, ISI, TLP, Musharraf, Afghanistan Introduction In the last two decades, the relationship between the Islamic faith and political power has emerged as an interesting field of political anal- ysis. Particularly after the revival of the Taliban and the rise of ISIS, Author. Article. Central European Journal of International and Security Studies 14, no. 4: 51–73.

Boston University April 14, 2011 Beena Sarwar Days of Hope and Challenge: Understanding the Middle East and South/Central Asia Thank you all for being here, I feel honoured to be at this gathering. I would like to thank American Friends Service Committee and Joseph Gerson for inviting me. I first came across AFSC when I met Joseph at an anti-nuclear conference in Hiroshima, Japan, in 1998. We have stayed in touch since, sharing information and analyses about issues related to peace and anti-war activism. I feel particularly honoured and humbled to share this space with Noam Chomsky who is of course is a veteran of the global struggle for justice and peace. His ideas and analyses inspire millions not only in America but around the world. I look forward to hearing him speak this evening. I remember the prolonged standing ovation he received in Pakistan in October 2001, when he entered a packed hall to deliver the Eqbal Ahmad memorial lecture series. Eqbal Ahmad, as some of you may know, was the prominent Pakistani political analyst and thinker although to compartmentalise him within national confines seems a bit unfair, given his involvement in freedom struggles around the world, starting with the anti-Vietnam war movement in America in the 1960s. He was one of the Harrisburg Eight as the group of activists came to be known who were accused of conspiring to kidnap Kissinger. I mention these linkages to illustrate the global nature of our joint struggle for justice and peace not only in our home countries elsewhere.
