Pakistan speedster Shoaib Akhtar Saturday moved to dispel any suggestion he was running away from dope tests ahead of the Champions Trophy, saying he will be the first to give a sample.
Pakistan will conduct dope tests on its 30-man preliminary Champions Trophy squad on Sunday to avoid any further embarrassment following paceman Mohammad Asif's failed test in the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Akhtar, who tested positive for nandrolone in October 2006, said he has no fears ahead of the September Trophy, scheduled to be held in Pakistan.
"I will be the first to give dope test on Sunday because I have no fears and will also give fitness test once I gain rhythm," said Akhtar, who was banned for two years for the positive test.

Pakistan cricket authorities Saturday hoped for a positive decision on their hosting of the Champions Trophy in September amidst security concerns in the country.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) is to conduct a security briefing at headquarters in Dubai Sunday with representatives from all eight participating teams in attendance -- a meeting which could lead to a final decision.
Pakistan's representative, Shafqat Naghmi, is hoping for a positive outcome.
"We have assured fool-proof security measures for the Trophy and there is no reason for us to believe that the tournament will be relocated from Pakistan," Naghmi, chief operating officer of Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), said.

Leg-spinner Danish Kaneria on Friday pledged his international future to Pakistan after it was reported he was considering playing for the English national side.
"I didn't say that I wanted to stay over here and qualify to play for England. I still want to play for Pakistan," Kaneria told the official website of Essex, his English county side.
"If Pakistan didn't select me for three or four years in a row, only then would I consider coming here permanently."
The 27-year-old spinner has taken 220 wickets in 51 Test matches.
"My priority is with Pakistan for as long as they need me in Test cricket. In fact, I am always there for them in any form of the game - Pakistan has given me the name to be playing cricket in England." | | By: BrightCricket | | |

It’s Pakistan.”“The Pentagon has “requested that Bush sign an ‘executive order’ expanding its authority to go after these (Al Qadea) commanders in Pakistani territory.” But some in the Administration are reluctant to cross that line for fear of destabilizing Pakistan’s recently elected government.”—Correspondent | | By: A Pakistan News | | |

| Pakistan's Sharif stirs call for Musharraf to be hanged | | 2008-06-14 07:37:00 | | Pakistan's former prime minister Nawaz Sharif stepped up his attack on President Pervez Musharraf on Saturday, suggesting he could be hanged while addressing thousands of protesters outside the presidency."We asked you to quit with honor after the election but you didn't," Sharif told the crowd, referring to U.S. ally Musharraf, who overthrew him in a 1999 coup."Now people have given a new judgment for you ... they want you to be held accountable," he said in the early hours of Saturday.The crowd, officially estimated at up to 20,000, chanted "hang Musharraf" as it listened to the two time former prime minister's fiery speech."Is hanging only for politicians?" asked Sharif, referring to former prime minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, hanged by a military dictator in 1979.

| Pakistan's Frontier Corps: Friend or Foe? | | 2008-06-13 14:58:00 | | The dustup between the U.S. and its Pakistani counterterror allies over a June 10 firefight on the Afghanistan border has stirred up new questions about Islamabad's commitment to the fight and the loyalties of its border guards. According to Pakistan, at least 11 of its paramilitary Frontier Corps border force were killed by coalition forces firing into Pakistan from inside Afghanistan this week. That's a pretty novel charge but hardly a new complaint. What Pakistani officials typically fail to acknowledge...(read more) | | By: An American Warning | | |

| Pakistan | | 2008-06-12 00:00:00 | | For over four thousand years, what is now Pakistan was one of the main prizes in the territorial tug-of-war between the Indian sub-continent and Central Asia. The vacuum left by the collapse of successive empires was filled by waves of princes, warriors, traders and refugees; forty-odd years after its creation, the ‘Land of the Pure; is still a country of migrants. The mohajirs who arrived from India at partition were followed by over one million Afghan refugees. Although united by a common religion, they remain fundamentally divided by their origins, languages and sects.The ‘Great Leader’ of the new Muslim state founded of the “parting of the ways” in 1947, died before realizing his vision. Muhammad Ali Jinnah’s modern democracy: has often proved too fragile to withstand the pressures from within and without. Pakistan’s dynamism is still offset by insecurity; material progress is discounted in the light of limitations imposed by authoritarian governments. The patriarchal | | By: The Best Of Asia | | |

| Pakistan and the Growing Threat of a Sharia Mini-State | | 2008-06-10 23:30:30 | | The Pakistan Taliban (Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan or TTP) is in the process of gaining territory and power within Pakistan, as a result of numerous "peace treaties" and agreements to empower the Taliban to enforce an anti-freedom theocracy based on Sharia law in Pakistan. This is a critical American national security issue that requires revisiting the very ideologies that provide the foundation for jihadist action itself, and answering difficult questions regarding the role of Sharia law and the reliability...(read more) | | By: An American Warning | | |
