Book Review 

Chasing A Mirage – The Tragic Illusion of an Islamic State. 

Author: Tarek Fatah
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., Canada
Reviewed By: Javed I. Chaudry

I have to multiply 2 US cents of Rafi Aamir, with oil and I got to hurry before Iran is struck with first missile.
Perhaps this is the "most to the point effort" so far on this book.
Regarding Allama Iqbal, in addition to being a "lucky cat" he was a "well planner cat too".
It was not only the optimism of socialists or Ahmedis who invested researches to own him, Iqbal had been playing resonance with every one of them. He did write a number of poems in praise of Mirza Ghalam Ahmad Qadiani before he had a genius concussion to turn against the latter.After all his father and elder brother remained Ahmedis so he did share some of his part. He might have done opposite in case of Maulvee Maudoodi.
" Juda ho deen siyasat se to reh jaati hai changezi"
"momin hai tu bey tegh bhi laRRta hai sapahi!"

so there we go with a justification for Mahmood Ghaznavi's Saum-naat!!
No..it does not ring any BELLS within "that" sector. Have not you seen author's face book profile? Mocking of "Islamist" seems to be the only intention or perhaps mocking of Islam itself!?
Well he has not blamed the "trainer" directly thus deserves the credit of riding two boats at one moment.And that is what you wanted to ask the author.
By the way your 2 US cent's crash landed plane can never do that $$$$$ business as this UFO , full of mirage, is doing!
