Pakistan’s Ambassador to the US Husain Haqqani has written to the foreign secretary and ISI Cheif, warning them that harassing Americans or denying them visas hurts the country’s image and can have severe consequences, CNN-IBN reported on Saturday. According to the channel, Haqqani’s letter, dated July 28, 2009, reveals that Pakistan has a blacklist of US journalists and non-government organisations (NGO) that are critical of Islamabad. The ambassador has warned that Pakistan risked hearings in the US Congress and potential restrictions on aid and military sales if US citizens were harassed or intimidated. The letter mentioned instances where US institutions or journalists were denied visas, harassed or put under surveillance. Haqqani has demanded explanations for these actions and a copy of the blacklist.
Mr. Haqqani’s plea to the Pakistani Intelligence agencies comes at a time when there is effectively a quiet occupation of Pakistan taking place by Americans arriving in one form or the other. There have been confirmed reports of over 200 houses being rented and barricaded all over Islamabad, 300 plus ‘military trainers’ setting up shop in Tarbela, new facilities being granted to the notorious ‘Blackwater’ – now with a new name, Xe Worldwide – in parts of Sindh, and the rather obvious CIA front, Create Associates International Inc (CAII) operating not only in Peshawar but also in Islamabad.
This is what renowned Scholar and Defence Analyst Dr. Shireen Mazari revealed a few days back:
“Ordinary officials at Pakistani airports have also been muttering their concerns over chartered flights flying in Americans whose entry is not recorded – even the flight crews are not checked for visas and so there is now no record-keeping of exactly how many Americans are coming into or going out of Pakistan. Incidentally the CAII’s (CIA/Blackwater) Craig Davis who was deported has now returned to Peshawar! And let us not be fooled by the cry that numbers reflect friendship since we know what numbers meant to Soviet satellites.”
Since these reports first surfaced last month, the chartered flights have stopped and a number of suspected CIA and Xe employees – posing as ‘journalists’, aid workers and employees of certain NGOs – have been denied visas and entry into Pakistan. Existing US consulate personnel and employees of CAII as well as a number of other US citizens have been put under surveillance for suspected involvement in anti-state activity.
It is the duty of Inter-Services Intelligence to defend Pakistan’s borders and block any covert attempts to trample Pakistan’s sovereignty. Mr. Haqqani’s assertion that ejecting Americans found involved in suspicious activity and denying them entry is hurting Pakistan’s image, is idiotic at best and treason at worst.
PKKH requests the Pakistan Army and the Inter-Services Intelligence to take note of Mr. Haqqani’s attempt to undermine Pakistan’s national security – and at the very least, immediately put him under surveillance if not on a lamp-post in Islamabad.

For truth about letter and Ahmed Quraishi see -

Ahmed Quraishi who is a Taliban and Jihadist apologist and once took pride in calling himself the Master of “Immaculate Deception” has now openly called on his Jihadist/Conspiracy Theorist/Taliban sympathizing right-wing nuts to harm or kill Pakistan’s Ambassador to the U.S. Ahmed Quraishi’s instigation comes in a post titled ‘Husain Haqqani to ISI: Let Blackwater In.’
Writing in the name of Dan Qayyum or forwarding his writing, Ahmed Quraishi says “Mr. Haqqani’s assertion that deporting Americans found involved in suspicious activity and denying them entry is hurting Pakistan’s image, is idiotic at best and treason at worst. PKKH (Pakistan Ka Khuda Hafiz) requests the Pakistan Army and the Inter-Services Intelligence to take note of Mr. Haqqani’s attempt to undermine Pakistan’s national security – and at the very least, immediately put him under surveillance if not on a lamppost in Islamabad.”
It is well known that the punishment for treason is death and the meaning of ‘hanging from a lamp post’ is also unmistakable.
Ahmed Quraishi at one time had called former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto a traitor and that was followed by the assassination of the democratic leader of Pakistan by Taliban.
Although Ahmed Quraishi accuses Husain Haqqani of ‘letting Blackwater in’ what he ignores is that in his alleged letter published in a section of the media, Ambassador Husain Haqqani does not even talk about Blackwater and only mentions American journalists and NGOs. However, this does not prevent Ahmed Quraishi from stating this falsehood because Quraishi’s arguments are never built on fact.
This is not the first time that Master Conspiracy Theorist-Jihadist Ahmed Quraishi has attacked someone and doubted that individual’s patriotism and loyalty to Pakistan. If we glance around we see that so far Ahmed Quraishi has attacked everyone who represents Pakistan’s interests internationally. Ahmed Quraishi has attacked without regard to any ethics Pakistan’s Baluchi leaders, Sindhi politicians, MQM leaders and all secular politicians. His venom against current elected leaders is especially pronounced.
Quraishi has been inciting people against the elected leaders of Pakistan ever since the civilian government came to power. He has not spared anyone from President Asif Ali Zardari to former National Security Advisor Mahmud Ali Durrani to Interior Chief Rehman Malik. He has made undignified attacks on U.S. Ambassador to Pakistan Anne Patterson as part of his efforts to cultivate national paranoia.
Through his ranting and columns Ahmed Quraishi has instigated his Taliban-Jihadist followers against these people. The only person he has spared is former President General Musharraf, a usurper and reviled pro-American ruler whom Quraishi openly supported and admired.
Not just Pakistani leaders and politicians Ahmed Quraishi has not spared the Pakistani media either including the jang-Geo-News group for which he has worked. He has called them CIA agents without explaining why he writes in a newspaper or appears on a channel he describes as part of CIA psy-ops. The Pakistani media apparently is not jihadist and rightwing nutty enough for the Taliban-Jihadist sympathizer Ahmed Quraishi.
Ahmed Quraishi acts as if he is the only patriotic Pakistani and he can sit in judgement on the patriotism of all 160 million Pakistanis? Are all Pakistanis, except his fake “nationalists” stupid and ignorant if they refuse to believe people like Ahmed Quraishi or is the opposite the truth?
History has many examples which show that people who shout the loudest about an issue are very often those who are mixed up on the other side of that issue. Could Quraishi be on a mission to sow division among Pakistanis to serve some foreign interest and tehereby undermine Pakistan?
whatever it is but Hussain Haqqani is clearly American ambassador in America.
