The Mongolians were very ruthless and merciless with the countries they occupied. The whole world was afraid of their savagery and barbarism. They were winning the battles not only by their force and efficiency, but also by the psychological fear they inflicted in the minds of their opponents. The Mongolians invested the thunderbolt tactics in their wars, which were dependent upon swift movement. They also depended on the psychological war tactics by letting their opponents know about their horrible austerities before they even met them.

The highlighted parts of the text have serious revelations. The Mongolians spread their threat in the hearts of the people before they invaded any country. Pakistani people are also being intimidated and are completely caught in the fear of Black water and private mercenaries just to make them mentally paralyzed and subdue them easily when the final whistle is blown.
Like the notorious Minister Ibn Al-Alqami of Caliph Mustasim, our politicians are also working to most smartly engage our army in a civil war and want them to be engaged until complete dilution of their power so that forces ready to boot our heads would find no resistance in this country. People are deliberately forced to hate
We the people of
It is true that we all stand behind our Army and fully support their action to eliminate terrorists from our soil. But on the other hand, the nation would not forgive the weakness of our Army High ups and Politicians who are allowing these private mercenaries of
The present situation now gives a clear sign that the Government is working on a very black agenda. The agenda is as same as of the notorious Minister Ibn Al-Alqami of Caliph Mustasim of Abbasid Dynasty. The agenda is to make the country weaker and make the people hate it more than anything. We are gradually being pushed to the deep ditch and our politicians are telling us that every thing will be ok. We remember the shameful day when our Army laid their arms in front of Indian Army in 1971. We should ask ourselves, are we ready to bear the same shameful moments once again??? Are we ready to see our Politicians and key Leaders flying out and throwing us in the hands of the aggressors? Have we really started believing that
No, we have little time. We can gather our fist. We can shake our brains and can find solution to the crisis. We have under estimated our own capabilities, we are Muslims and Ummah of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), this connection to the Holy Prophet can give us huge strength and can revive our ideology. We got to revive the teachings of Quaid-e-Azam and Allama Iqbal who once steered the nation and made them stand in front of
Insha Alla our country will be saved and we believe we can do this.
The wave of terror in
After the recent incidence reported by the reputable “The Nation” newspaper of
The Interior ministry, when approached for their comments on this story, affirmed once again that there existed no law in
Government is also completely blank on the issue of NATO’s vacating the border posts inside
The growing crisis of sugar and the price hike of basic commodities show that the Government is loosing its interest to relieve the common people from the agonies of mismanagement and extreme level of corruption in the lines of their present leadership. The Sugar Mill owners who are either the parliamentarians or the close relatives of our leaders sitting in the Government and Opposition are not even apprehended or questioned for the miseries they brought to the nation. In present situation people have lost their trust on this Government. Moreover the black ordinance of NRO is being struggled to get approved from the parliament to further strengthen the chances of looting of this already torn nation.
It would be so correct to say that Government is now acting as a deaf, blind and paralyzed entity not knowing what to do in the present situation and unable to plan any thing positive for the nation which is dieing with lawlessness, terrorism, unemployment and scarcity of basic commodities like sugar, wheat etc.
Pakistani nation is now praying that present Government would either show some sympathy to the nation or step down to give chance to someone sincere, courageous and confident to steer this nation out of the present crisis. Today media from all sides is praising MQM and its philosophy to relieve the poor people from the present crisis. The tested leadership of PML-N, PML-Q, PPP, JUI and JI are all same with minor differences because their prime interest is to make common people fool and pass legislation to protect their lootings and backstabbing of the nation. They are after permits, licenses, bank loans and overdrafts and snatching the bread from the mouth of common people, just to make their personal empires stronger than ever. Imran Khan’s Tehreek-e-Insaf is also seen as a party standing on strong principles and can be given opportunity to lead the nation in present crisis situation. It is the nation which should decide about their own fate now!!
The time has come when the parties like MQM and Tehreek-e-Insaf must be given the opportunity to lead the nation with an ideology to bring power to the common people rather making the right to rule confined only to the feudal families and rich Industrialists who are multiplying their wealth again and again after throwing the nation into trauma of sugar, wheat, dollar, petrol, gas, electricity and many more crisis artificially created to achieve maximum gains every time.
Another Blast in Peshawar which proved to be extremely deadly is alarming us again that unless Black water and private mercenaries which are active in Pakistan are not checked, we would see more devastation in our country. Our Government is running behind shadows despite having the real culprit laughing around without being apprehended.
The timings of this blast was surprising when Ms. Clinton started the visit to Pakistan and vowing strongly that Pakistan should move towards signing Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty and allow access to Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan.
It looks that Americans are now in some sort of hurry because their policy regarding Afghanistan is visibly in doldrums and without any clear objective. They want to finish the job quickly.
With the speedy action of Pakistani Army and destruction of alleged stronghold of Talibans, the responsibility of USA inside Afghanistan increased enormously. But the reports of NATO’s vacating check posts near AfPak borders close to Waziristan clearly raised alarms for the Pakistani Leadership and specially those in Pakistan Army. This clear backstabbing from USA made it quite visible that the prime intention of America was to engage Pakistan Army for a longer period in Waziristan and to ensure smooth supply of reinforcement to terrorists fighting in Waziristan Area. Further the vacating of check posts also facilitated those terrorists of Tehreek e Taliban Pakistan who wanted to run back across the border to save their lives from the assault of Pakistani Army. The recent interview of Major General Ather Abbas of Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) to a British News Agency is an eye opener where he clearly asked Americans to show seriousness if they are really interested in bringing peace to Afghanistan. He also said that it is not necessary that every time only Pakistan is asked to perform and do more, the forces on the other side of the border should also do exactly what is being done here. Further, he revealed that the suggestions of completely sealing the western borders by creating barbed wire wall with bio metric security system installed at checkpoints were let down by USA and Afghan Government.
The revelations in the Interview mentioned above clearly prove that NATO and Afghan forces are not helping Pakistan in controlling the Terrorists of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) in South Waziristan. It was USA who insisted to start this operation and once it is seen that the actions of Pakistan Army are becoming highly aggressive and pushing terrorists out of that region, the vacating of check posts by US led NATO and Afghan forces is clearly seen as an extremely ugly move. Most disgusting is that USA has not even found it necessary to clarify about their position on this backstabbing. As a Pakistani Citizen watching the efforts of our brave army with extreme appreciation, the move of USA has cleared all the remaining dust from my doubt that America has no agenda but to hurt Pakistan as much as possible.
Most shocking now is the news of apprehension and subsequent release of Black Water personnel in Islamabad while driving unregistered vehicle with highly sophisticated arms. This shows that Americans are trying to over intimidate the Pakistani nation. The helplessness of our PPP leadership in both the above cases is a visible proof that how bigger the cost of accepting Kerry Luger’s bill is being paid by the Pakistani nation. It is also true that the due to these kinds of events every passing second is increasing the hatred for America and it may multiply with every next move like the one discussed above. People of Pakistan are now more vigilant, more agile and their ability to judge the truth and false has increased manifold when it comes to judge the relations with USA. The war on terror plunged Pakistan into never ending violence and precious loss of lives. The loss sustained by Pakistan is increasing every day and there is no stopping expected in the coming days.
Major General Ather Abbas clearly stated Pak Army is focusing to eliminate the Uzbeks who are in the lines of TTP. Uzbeks as I revealed in my previous postings are loyal to Gen.Rashid Dostum the notorious warlord of Afghanistan who is charged for war crimes when he killed many Taliban prisoners by suffocating them in a steel Container in 2001. They are also part of Northern Alliance which is not friendly to Pakistan but to India. Eliminating these Uzbeks is quite necessary as they are the one who are bringing arms, ammunition and huge amount of foreign currency in the regions of Swat and Waziristan to finance the militancy. It is also seen clearly that Gen. Rashid Dostum was loyal to Dr. Najeebullah who was loyal to Soviet Regime and has still got very great ties with India.
Ms. Hillary Clinton’s visit to Pakistan is also very important. Our Leadership must raise the issue of Drone attacks, Cross border non cooperation of NATO forces and Black Water and private mercenaries’ activities inside Pakistan. Today the blast in Peshwar shows that until and unless these Black Water people are not apprehended and brought to Courts, we would see more blasts like what happened in Peshawar today and many other places in Pakistan.
Our law enforcing agencies should be given strong power to register cases against those foreigners who are carrying illegal arms and violating Pakistan’s law without minor obstruction. I would also want to register my protest that why Law enforcing agencies are discouraged repeatedly when they find American citizens violating the Law of our country by carrying illegal weapons, taking photographs of strategically important places. Mr. Rehman Malik should explain about it, otherwise we the Pakistanis would have no doubt in saying that Mr. Malik is doing no service to the nation but acting as an American servant who is helping America to bring more devastation to Pakistan. The responsibility on the shoulders of the Prime Minister and the President has increased but it is sad that they are silent on Black Water’s activities and seeing helplessly everyday when every city of Pakistan is burning and people dieing like insects.
The activities of Black Water are visible when our agencies find them taking snaps of our key Government buildings and Military bases without being checked. But when they are caught red handed the Government releases them. I would scream to Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry to look into this matter as our President, Prime Minister and Interior Minister are unable to save our country from daily bloodshed besides knowing that who is responsible for all this misery.
Nation should rise now and clearly protest to the Government regarding the activities of Black Water, otherwise we should understand that the days of our liberty are limited now!!

The shameful report of US considering to begin assault on Quetta the provincial capital of the troubled Balochistan province of Pakistan has raised huge alarm for the Pakistani nation. This nation is facing the worst trauma due to American conspiracies and ugly actions. With Kerry Lugar Bill for sanction of huge Aid to Pakistan is just a sugar coated poison which Mr. Zardari and his PPP Government happily swallowed and thought that people of Pakistan are fool to accept this as their success. Not a day passed when this report of US Plans to attack Quetta came into light which is not a slap but a booted foot on the face of this democratically elected Government and toothless opposition lead by Mr. Nawaz Sharif.
Since long, USA is insisting that Osama and Mullah Omar are hiding in Pakistan. The conspiracy behind specifically targeting Quetta for this particular reason has many reasons to understand. Balochistan is facing a very potential uprising to fight for its rights and for its Independence too. Right now, due to immense and intense vigilance and actions against Baloch Nationalists and separatists, the movement seems to be dieing quickly and loosing its touch. More over the growing influence of Taliban inside south eastern part of Afghanistan has blocked the access of American and Indian aided agents to enter and create unrest inside Balochistan. To aid and to protect Baloch separatists, American and Indian coalition had no other option but to build reason for American forces to land inside this province and more specifically to Quetta which has an Army Garrison too. The charges on ISI to support Mullah Omar is clearly seen as a direct threat to the very important Army Base in Quetta. Pakistan cannot take any action inside Quetta right now because the hate for the Army is already reaching highest limits inside this province and USA knows that Pakistan is not in a position to start any operation in Quetta.
The smiling face of Mr. Zardari is telling the story that he is more interested in gathering more and more and more money from the world in the name of loyalty and compliance to the black agenda of USA. Rather than doing more, the situation now seems to me as if he is saying to America that ask more and the price for every compliance seems to be fixed already.
Pakistani nation is tormented and mentally paralyzed due to price hike, lack of water, electricity and in winter season the natural gas shortage is also predicted. In present circumstances when America is all set to land its forces in Pakistan, our nation will already be made mentally weak to defend itself from such a huge assault on our sovereignty.
The game plan of targeting Quetta has very deep roots. Quetta is believed to be embracing a very huge population of Pashto speaking people which is believed to be loyal to Pakistan. Although majority of Balochi people are also the supporters of Pakistan but targeting Pashtun community is the prime goal of USA. In the name of hunt for Mullah Omar, the game plan is to expel this Pashtun population out of Balochistan which is expected to be the main resistant force to stop any separatist movement in that province. To be more specific the target of probable American operation would only be the Pashtun community of Balochistan. It seems that all corners have been trimmed and all knitting of this ugly action has been completed and it must be the story of just days or weeks when we will hear that American Marines are landing in Balochistan.
It is believed to be highly criminal from the part of our Government to keep people of Quetta in dark about the situation. The magnitude of loss of lives in Quetta would be unbelievable if the city is not vacated in the next few days. The Government seems to be not interested to give any such advice right now on American orders because any havoc would make the so called targeted Taliban leaders to run with the crowd and fade away. Although it is widely believed that Talibans spiritual leader is not in Pakistan but in Iran but American insistence on his presence in Quetta has motives described above which is to strengthen the separatists movement in Balochistan.
In present circumstances, it becomes the duty of every Pakistani to defend our motherland and be prepared to fight hand to hand with the American Marines who would find no resistance from our Politicians, our Army, our Navy and our Air force. The attitude of the defenders of our motherland can be seen from the fact that no Drone has ever been knocked down by Pakistani Airforce and their assaults are crossing the limits every day. If the question of our sovereignty is concerned Black water, Dyn-Corp and many others are already operating inside Pakistan with free movement and access with most modern weapons allowed them to be used whenever and wherever they want. It is our people who should decide that are we ready to bow head in front of USA and become slaves again for centuries to come or we will save our motherland from the claws of opportunist politicians and leaders who are puppets of the super power and have their villas ready in offshore islands.
The assault on ISI is visible because those elements inside ISI who are safeguarding the national interest are being targeted repeatedly. There have been many changes made and many forced retirements have been seen in the most effective Intelligence Agency which are effecting negatively to the capability of this agency and may result in its subsequent dilution.
In short, people of Pakistan should be ready both mentally and bodily to accept that our days of Independence are limited now. If we really want to save it, then we should decide now or may be it will be too late to curse our weaknesses and our inability to defend our motherland.
It is now useless to see towards our leaders who are already a sold product and have no interest in saving us from the bloodshed by US Marines, the Drone attacks and they have already taken their salary for throwing us at the feet of America to become slaves not only for now but for generations to come.
India cannot hide the mysterious killing of its Nuclear Scientists from the eyes of world media? Further, the insecure and outdated Nuclear Installations are raising concerns about possible catastrophe like Chernobyl. Source:http://www.indiadaily.com/editorial/20613.asp “This was the second time Mr. Mahalingam went missing. Earlier, while working at Kalpakkam nuclear power plant in Tamil Nadu, he was reported missing for few days but had returned home later. This time he never returned. Someone killed him. Ending the mystery over the disappearance of the Indian Nuclear power plant scientist, N Mahalingam, Naval divers on Saturday recovered his body from theKali River, six days after he went missing. But who killed the Indian nuclear scientists? This is not the first time Indian nuclear scientists are killed. Vikram Sarabhai was killed by two Christian woman spies sent to him in Kovalam palace in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala by a foreign agency. Homi Bhabha was killed in a plane crash created by a foreign spy agency to stall India’s progress science and technology. But the western foreign agencies are not after small fries in India these days. They buy the whole parliament and implant foreign agent at the very top these days. Then who killed the Indian nuclear scientists this time? Were the Islamic terrorists behind this heinous act? Naval divers fished out the body of Mahalingam, the scientific officer at the plant, who was reported missing during a morning walk on June 8, from the river flowing near the Kaiga Township, police said. Police said they are investigating whether Mr. Mahalingam had drowned or there was any foul play.” In my recent article I raised the issue of Naxal’s threat to Indian Nuclear Arsenal. Some of my critics thought that to be a baseless claim. But now things are showing signs of the intensity. It is the easiest thing for India to put garbage on Pakistan’s head this time also, but the situation cannot be publicized so easily. Presently it is the matter of India’s own and most important matter of weakness and lapses in internal security arrangements. One can ask that if Indian Scientists are so vulnerable prey to terrorists like Naxals and most probably Muslim extremists inside India, then how India can assure the world that it’s Nuclear Arsenal is safe and secure. The possible take over of Indian Nuclear Arsenal by Naxal is an important issue and needs the attention of super powers of the world. Recent American deal with India to provide Civil Nuclear Technology is a positive development. The reactors which India will build after this deal would definitely be safe and according to the international standards of safety and security. But the question arises, what will be the fate of those outdated Reactors which were built on the basis of obsolete Russian technology? Majority of those have been perished, ill maintained and alarmingly dangerous when nuclear contamination and leakages are expected. Understanding the seriousness the complete report is reflected here for better knowledge about the situation. Source: http://www.sacw.net/article1070.html “India's Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) is planning a large expansion of nuclear power, in which fast breeder reactors play an important role. Fast breeder reactors are attractive to the DAE because they produce (or "breed") more fissile material than they use. The breeder reactor is especially attractive in India, which hopes to develop a large domestic nuclear energy program even though it has primarily poor quality uranium ore that is expensive to mine. Currently, only one fast reactor operates in the country--a small test reactor in Kalpakkam, a small township about 80 kilometers (almost 50 miles) south of Chennai. The construction of a larger prototype fast breeder reactor (PFBR) is underway at the same location. This reactor is expected to be completed in 2010 and will use mixed plutonium-uranium oxide as fuel in its core, with a blanket of depleted uranium oxide that will absorb neutrons and transmute into plutonium 239. Liquid sodium will be used to cool the core, which will produce 1,200 megawatts of thermal power and 500 megawatts of electricity. The reactor is to be the first of hundreds that the DAE envisions constructing throughout India by mid-century. However, such an expansion of fast reactors, even if more modest than DAE projections, could adversely affect public health and safety. While all nuclear reactors are susceptible to catastrophic accidents, fast reactors pose a unique risk. In fast reactors, the core isn't in its most reactive--or energy producing-- configuration when operating normally. Therefore, an accident that rearranges the fuel in the core could lead to an increase in reaction rate and an increase in energy production. If this were to occur quickly, it could lead to a large, explosive energy release that might rupture the reactor vessel and disperse radioactive material into the environment. Many of these reactors also have what is called a "positive coolant void coefficient," which means that if the coolant in the central part of the core were to heat up and form bubbles of sodium vapor, the reactivity a measure of the neutron balance within the core, which determines the reactor's tendency to change its power level (if it is positive, the power level rises)--would increase; therefore core melting could accelerate during an accident. (A positive coolant void coefficient, though not involving sodium, contributed to the runaway reaction increase during the April 1986 Chernobyl reactor accident.) In contrast, conventional light water reactors typically have a "negative coolant void coefficient" so that a loss of coolant reduces the core's reactivity. The existing Indian fast breeder test reactor, with its much smaller core, doesn't have a positive coolant void coefficient. Thus, the DAE doesn't have real-world experience in handling the safety challenges that a large prototype reactor will pose. More largely, international experience shows that fast breeder reactors aren't ready for commercial use. Superphénix, the flagship of the French breeder program, remained inoperative for the majority of its 11-year lifetime until it was finally shuttered in 1996. Concerns about the adequacy of the design of the German fast breeder reactor led to it being contested by environmental groups and the local state government in the 1980s and ultimately to its cancellation in 1991. And the Japanese fast reactor Monju shut down in 1995 after a sodium coolant leak caused a fire and has yet to restart. Only China and Russia are still developing fast breeders. China, however, has yet to operate one, and the Russian BN-600 fast reactor has suffered repeated sodium leaks and fires. When it comes to India's prototype fast breeder reactor, two distinct questions must be asked The simple answer to both is no. The DAE, like other fast-reactor developers, has tried to study how severe a core-disruptive accident would be and how much energy it would release. In the case of the PFBR, the DAE has argued that the worst-case core disruptive accident would release an explosive energy of 100 megajoules. This is questionable. The DAE's estimate is much smaller when compared with other fast reactors, especially when the much larger power capacity of the PFBR--and thus, the larger amount of fissile material used in the reactor--is taken into account. For example, it was estimated that the smaller German reactor (designed to produce 760 megawatts of thermal energy) would produce 370 megajoules in the event of a core-disruptive accident--much higher than the PFBR estimate. Other fast reactors around the world have similarly higher estimates for how much energy would be produced in such accidents. The DAE's estimate is based on two main assumptions Neither of these assumptions is justifiable. Britain's Atomic Energy Authority has done experiments that suggest up to 4 percent of the thermal energy could be converted into mechanical energy. And the phenomena that might occur inside the reactor core during a severe accident are very complex, so there's no way to stage a full-scale experiment to compare with the theoretical accident models that the reactor's designers used in their estimates. In addition, important omissions in the DAE's own safety studies make their analysis inadequately conservative. (Our independent estimates of the energy produced in a hypothetical PFBR core disruptive accident are presented in the Science and Global Security article, "Compromising Safety: Design Choices and Severe Accident Possibilities in India's Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor" and these are much higher than the DAE's estimates.) Turning to the second question: In terms of the stringency of the DAE's design effort, the record reveals inadequate safety precautions. One goal of any "defense-in-depth" design is to engineer barriers to withstand the most severe accident that's considered plausible. Important among these barriers is the reactor's containment building, the most visible structure from the outside of any nuclear plant. Compared to most other breeder reactors, and light water reactors for that matter, the design of the PFBR's containment is relatively weak and won't be able to contain an accident that releases a large amount of energy. The DAE knows how to build stronger containments--its newest heavy water reactor design has a containment building that is meant to withstand six times more pressure than the PFBR's containment--but has chosen not to do so for the PFBR. The other unsafe design choice is that of the reactor core. As mentioned earlier, the destabilizing positive coolant void coefficient in fast reactors is a problem because it increases the possibility that reactivity will escalate inside the core during an accident. It's possible to decrease this effect by designing the reactor core so that fuel subassemblies are interspersed within the depleted uranium blanket, in what is termed a heterogeneous core. The U.S. Clinch River Breeder Reactor, which was eventually cancelled, was designed with a heterogeneous core, and Russia has considered a heterogeneous core for its planned BN-1600 reactor. The DAE hasn't made such an effort, and the person who directed India's fast breeder program during part of the design phase once argued that the emphasis on the coolant void coefficient was mistaken because a negative void coefficient could lead to dangerous situations in an accident as well. That might be true, but it misses the obvious point that the same potentially dangerous situations would be even more dangerous if the void coefficient within the core is positive. Both of these design choices--a weak containment building and a reactor core with a large and positive void coefficient--are readily explainable: They lowered costs. Reducing the sodium coolant void coefficient would have increased the fissile material requirement of the reactor by 30-50 percent--an expensive component of the initial costs. Likewise, a stronger containment building would have cost more. All of this is motivated by the DAE's assessment that "the capital cost of [fast breeder reactors] will remain the most important hurdle" to their rapid deployment. Lowered electricity costs would normally be most welcome, but not with the increased risk of catastrophic accidents caused by poorly designed fast breeder reactors.” The report above has serious revelations and if not considered properly may result in a huge catastrophe many times higher than Chernobyl where people who lived around paid enormous price and facing the aftermath till now. The world cannot ignore the fact that Indian Nuclear Program and security arrangements cannot meet the international standards they are extremely outdated and obsolete. Most importantly the kidnapping and killing of nuclear scientists and possible slippage of information to deadly forces like Naxals and other Islamic extremist groups operating inside India may take the world to even bigger loss than 9/11. The time has come when India should be asked questions about the security arrangements and proper assistance should be extended to India most importantly by USA under the new deal to refurbish and secure the Nuclear Assets of India.
1) Is there confidence about how an accident would propagate inside the core and how much energy it might release?; and (2) have PFBR design efforts been as strict as necessary, given the possibility that an accident would be difficult to contain and potentially harmful to the surrounding population?
1) that only part of the core will melt down and contribute to the accident; and (2) that only about 1 percent of the thermal energy released during the accident would be converted into mechanical energy that can damage the containment building and cause ejection of radioactive materials into the atmosphere.
The war against Taliban inside
Since months the Taliban issue was riding on the nerves of the Pakistani nation. Their name has become very well known to the whole world now as a brutal, inhuman and mad group which is busy in cutting throats, beating women, blowing schools and torching shrines in the name of Islam.
For the last decade, Taliban were confined to
It was mostly understood that some elements inside ISI were involved in nurturing those forces to build up resistance against US and Allied forces, however, the actions of these forces inside Pakistan negates the charge on the Pakistani Spy Agency.
It was a big achievement that
Coming back to the problem of Taliban inside
It is now strongly needed that
Every Pakistani citizen should be given Transit Identity cards which the citizen may carry whenever he is moving out of the city of his residence. This must be an electronic card carrying a SIM (Subscriber Identification Module) that can be detected and monitored by the new security agency purposely set up to monitor the movement of the citizens with in the country. Any person found without this new Card and he is not the resident of that city must be interrogated and imprisoned if found guilty of violating the new law. This system alone can be extremely helpful not only in detecting the illegal movement but controlling the crimes in many parts of the country. We have a perfect tracking technology developed for vehicles which can be helpful in detecting the movement of individuals also.
I understand, it will surely be objected by Human Rights activists, but we can also introduce a bracelet, or a ring or even can implant such SIM inside human body of the citizens of this country to monitor their movement.
Right now
