Bomb poet’s shrine to protest women visitors

Suspected militants bombed the mausoleum in Pakistan of a 17th-century poet on Thursday, apparently because women have been visiting the shrine.

A letter delivered to the management of the mausoleum of Abdul Rehman, commonly known as Rehman Baba, on the outskirts of Peshawar in northwestern Pakistan three days before the attack warned against “shrine culture,” Sahibzada Mohammad Anees, a top government official in the city told Pakistan’s English-language DawnNews television.

The letter also noted that women were coming to pray at the shrine.

No one was hurt in the pre-dawn blast but the mausoleum was badly damaged. The Sufi poet is revered in Pakistan and Afghanistan for his mystical, melodic poetry. Written in the Pashto language, his verses about love and peace are commonly quoted and have been translated into English, French, Russian, Urdu, Arabic and other languages.

A professor at Peshawar University told the television network that Rehman Baba’s poems are kept alongside the Islamic holy book, the Quran, in many homes.

Islamic militants have been stepping up attacks in Pakistan, especially in the Pashtun-dominated northwest, and are increasingly seen as a threat to the nation of 170 million people. They have tried to stamp out what they see as inappropriate practices such music and dancing. They also consider paying homage at graves heretical. And they believe Islam prohibits men and women from mingling unless they are husband and wife.March 7, 2009: Peshawar, Pakistan. One woman has died and 28 people have been injured in an attack on the Presbyterian Christian community in the village of Songo, in the district of Gujranwala, province of Punjab. The attack took place on the evening of March 2: at 8 p.m., a group of Muslim inhabitants opened fire on the faithful who had gathered in the church for prayer. The woman, named Shakeela, died on the spot, while other members of the faithful suffered injuries of various kinds while they were seeking to flee from the bullets or to protect the pastor. The attackers broke the windows of the church, destroyed the Bibles and the other prayer books, and removed the cross from the roof of the building.

The victims of the attacks say that this was a premeditated action, and recount that in the previous weeks they had received a number of threats from the attackers. The authors of the attack have been identified, and a report against them has been filed at the local police station. The Pakistan Christian Post says that for now, the security forces have turned down the request for investigations on the attackers. For this reason, the burial of the woman’s body has been delayed, to permit an autopsy in evidence of the attack.

The attack in Songo is added to a long list of violent events that are now being seen more or less everywhere in Punjab and in the North-West Frontier Province (NWFP). The attacks are carried out by the Taliban, but also by ordinary people, and they are not coming to an end in the Swat Valley, where a fragile ceasefire has been attained by the government, thanks to the concession of introducing sharia in that district and in the district of Malakand.

During the night of March 5, the Taliban blew up 16 CD and DVD stores in Takhtbhai, in the district of Mardan northeast of Peshawar, the capital of the NWFP. It is one of the many places in the province that in recent months have come under the grip of the Taliban. In February, it was the theater of attacks against girls’ schools, carried out by Islamic fundamentalists, and in spite of the fact that the agreement between the Taliban and the government provides for the reopening of schools to girls, many are afraid of fresh violence.

Since the beginning of the year, people have been abandoning the Swat Valley by the thousands. These include many families and a number of teachers, who have formally stated that they are going on vacation. One mother who left the district recounts: “All the best teachers from my children’s schools have left. I do not think they will go back. According to my relatives there, many children have gone back to school, but there are now too few teachers.” (Hat tip. Hal, Thanx)

Meanwhile while the boys are having fun, the girls have to be fed.

Now back in time

March 7, 1974: In Iran, a bomb was tossed into the British embassy compound.March 7, 1980:In Germany, an Islamic terrorist group called the Afghanistan People’s Mujahideen (Holy Warriors), claimed responsibility for planting a bomb at the Soviet Consulate in West Berlin. The Afghan People’s Mujahideen was believed responsible for a bomb planted at Aeroflot office in Frankfurt earlier in the year. This bomb failed to explode
The APM was made up of the same people and ideology upon which al-Qaeda and the Taliban grew. At the time of the attack, their primary sponsors were America and Pakistan.

March 7, 1984: CNN Bureau Chief Jeremy Levin was kidnapped in Lebanon.March 7, 1988: Three Al Fatah terrorists crossed into Israel from Egypt and hijacked a bus. They then bargained for the release of all Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails. After the terrorists killed the sole male passenger on the bus, and began shooting the women, an antiterrorist squad killed all three jihadists.
Fatah claimed to have conducted the attack in retaliation for the killing of three Fatah operatives in Cyprus in February. Not only didn’t Israeli agents have anything to do with that inter-Palestinian rivalry-based assassination, even if they had, the civilian bus would was an inappropriate choice for reprisal.March 7, 1988: A bomb exploded in an Israeli grammar school moments after the students had been dismissed. The explosive device had actually been set to detonate while the students of the Jewish private school were in class, but the timing device malfunctioned.March 7, 1990: An Islamic fundamentalist group in Turkey claimed credit for the assassination of a Turkish journalist who had been critical of Muslim fundamentalists. His driver was also killed in the attack which took place outside the journalist’s home in Istanbul. Muslims are intolerant of criticism, truth, freedom, and choice.March 7, 1992: The regional security officer assigned to the Israeli Embassy in Ankara, Turkey was murdered by Muslim militants deploying a car bomb. The Islamic Revenge Organization claimed responsibility for the attack in protest against Israel’s February 16 assassination of the terrorist, Hizballah secretary-general, and Islamic religious leader, Sheikh Abbas Mousawi, in south Lebanon.
Some would view this reprisal as morally equivalent, and see it as proof that violence breeds violence. Yet it isn’t so. Sheikh Abbas Musawi was a terrorist leader responsible for instigating countless attacks against Americans and Jews, killing thousands of innocent people. Killing him saved many lives. The security guard at the Israeli Embassy was neither a terrorist nor murderer – just an innocent man trying to do his job which was to protect life, not take it.March 7, 1993: The Turkish Consulate in Hamburg, Germany was firebombed and vandalized by a group of 15 Kurdish Muslims.March 7, 1993: In Lebanon, the PFLP-GC (Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine – General Command (which is none of the things it claims to be)) kidnapped and then executed an Israeli soldier. Their justification for killing the Jew was in retaliation of Israel not allowing Palestinian deportees to return to the West Bank. And I’m certain that more murders will convince them that more Muslims is just what they need.March 7, 1995: An Algerian who worked at the United Nations information office in Algiers was shot and killed.March 7, 1996: Turkey’s Consulate in Hamburg, Germany was firebombed and then smeared with painted slogans by a gang of 15 Kurdish people.March 7, 1999: In Bangladesh, a bomb at a concert killed 10, wounding 75; Harkatul Jihad was responsible. They were suspected to be connected to bin Laden, as he, rather than Islam, was now the face of evil.March 7, 2001: Palestinians fired into the greenhouses of the Netzarim settlement in the Gaza Strip. When they were finally given to the Palestinians, they destroyed them.March 7, 2001: In Istanbul, Turkey, a time bomb was left at the entrance to the Turkish Aviation League offices in Istanbul. If they wouldn’t teach Muslims how to fly, to hell with them.On This Day Since 9/11
