Following the release of the real PMâs magnum opus, in which he revealed that the Americans had threatened his then DG ISI that they would âbomb Pakistan back to the Stone Ageâ if we didnât co-operate with them post 9/11, Islooâs hacks have looked high and low for the former DG to elicit his comments on the issue. Some intrepid hacks made it past the check posts and actually got to the former DGâs home in Pindi. There they discovered that he was away preaching to the choir, doing tableegh
<b>Thought youâd never ask</b>
Two weeks ago, late one night, an irreverent hack left the home of a friend who happens to be on Uncle Samâs mission in Isloo. The hack was slightly the worse for wear. Just down the road from the diplomatâs home, he was accosted by a bearded gent who asked if heâd been to the âgoraâs houseâ. The hack jumped out of his skin but managed a defiant, âand who are you to askâ sort of reply. The bearded gent admitted that he was a spook and went directly to the heart of the matter: âwhat were you talking about in there?â The hack fell to the ground and kissed the earth. The bewildered spook asked what he was doing. âI thought youâd never ask! Iâve been harassed for years by spooks lying in wait outside the Indian and Soviet embassies. This is a first for Uncle Samâs mission. It shows we are finally a sovereign nation!â
<b>Away with her visage!</b>
We know that the real PM spoke to students at the Oxford Union, but what has not been mentioned is that he refused to address the august gathering until Big Benâs portrait had been removed from the hall of fame, she having been President of the Oxford Union in the 70s.
