  Greetings , Happy New Year , PEACE in the World.
  I SUGGEST THAT ALL OF US MUST " SHOUT " for PEACE in our REGION and also in all parts of the WORLD.
  Shakespeare and all the Renowned writers , poets , scholars intellectuals always demonstrated their love for PEACE in their areas as well as PEACE in all other places.
  It is IMPORTANT that we read about PEACE and request all the readers,writers,poets,journalists,editors,professionals,media, education experts etc. to try their best to convince all the politicians etc. for bringing PEACE , PEACE in the world.
  I am glad to note that the people all over the world ,the poets , writers , journalists , editors , media , education , human right , justice , legal experts , all the professionals LOVE ""PEACE"" which , I feel is very important for this world which is passing through the terrible war-like situations.
  Since the year 2000 , I am all the time writing and making all possible efforts for RESOLVING all the WORLD DISPUTES (such as Old KASHMIR , BAGLIHAR DAM , MIDDLE EAST etc.) NOW and NOT after another SIXTY YEARS , knowing the fact that during past few decades , many countries have become Atomic Powers.
  The UNO (United Nations) whose RESOLUTIONS are pending to be implemented in the UN Head Offices for nearly sixty years ,the PEACE LOVING PEOPLE of this most difficult World may ( if they like ) consider Eng'r.Poet,Writer,Editor Saghier Ahmed Jafri's URDU POETIC FORMULA for Resolving all the disputes NOW (2008) Peacefully , Permanently.
  What is the outcome / use of hundreds and thousands of International PEACE CONFERENCES , MEETINGS , POLITICAL GATHERINGS spending millions of Dollars , Rupees etc. when PEACE is NOT ACHIEVED.THEREFORE , WHY NOT TRY Saghier Jafri's formula , PROVIDED all are serious in having DEFINITE / PERMANENT PEACE , PEACE , PEACE and then , spending money for betterment , heath , proper education , housing of the millions and millions of poor people , needy / talented students , old sick people in every corner of this terrible world.
  Your Brother Saghier Jafri has offered since the year 2000 , his sincere, serious services and has offered to travel to any part of the World at any time to help in achieving the PEACE in our REGION and also the WORLD PEACE.

  Dear Azim Akhter !
  Thanks for your note in which you have appreciated my literary,cultural services.
  Today,I have sent one letter reading as under :-
  http://www.shelfari.com/books/726246/To-Lose-a-Battle-France-1940
  
  Friends , Lovers of PEACE / AMN / SHANTI , Lovers of Books.
  I hope that you and all the friends are fine.
  Through the book To Lose a Battle : France 1940 , Sir Alistair Horne
  has tried to take the reader to a period when , during the Second
  World War many countries such as
  Germany,England,France,USA,Japan,Russia and other countries
  encountered all kinds of circumstances / damages / losses /
  destructions etc.
  There were losses and gains by the countries which were directly or
  indirectly involved in the war which continued for nearly five years
  but , one thing was common as is always common in all the wars.It
  was , great loss of men,women,children and also the great loss of
  property etc.
  I did not realise the losses during the second world war until I
  visited France, Germany,England,Belgium,Holland,switzerland and many
  other countries during my job as electrical and mechanical engineer
  and also during travels as a poet,writer,tourist.
  I happened to see many places which were badly destroyed during the
  war.
  Sometime,I think if the people have learnt any lesson or lessons from
  the wars which always resulted in producing the suffering humanity ?
  I remember,in August , 1945 my father Syed Ahmed Ali came earlier to
  My Moiniya Islamia School , Ajmer (Rajhastan - India) and in a
  hurry,took me to our home in Mohalla Longia , Ajmer.On the way to
  home he told me about the news of use of Atom Bombs on Hiroshima ,
  Nagasaki in Japan which killed hundreds and thousands of people.
  He was of the view that,now the World War will come to an end and,if
  the leaders and people will learn lessons then there was a
  possibility that , there will not be any more wars , destructions ,
  killings , raids etc.
  What is happening now - killings,destructions everywhere ?
  As an old Tehreek e Pakistan Student Karkun / Pakistan Movement
  Student Worker - Member of Muslim Student Federation , Ajmer
  Rajhastan who was injured several times in 1946 , 1947 during
  Pakistan Movement , Founder of Urdu Poetic Formula for BRINGING
  PERMANENT PEACE by RESOLVING ALL DISPUTES like KASHMIR , MIDDLE EAST
  etc. PEACEFULLY, Engineer,Poet , Writer , Editor Urdu Manzil ,
  http://www.urdumanzil.com , your Brother Saghier Ahmed Jafri is
  available to travel to any part of THIS TROUBLED WORLD to help in
  bringing DEFINITE / PERMANENT PEACE EVERYWHERE.
  I hope that the UNO whose Resolutions are pending for nearly sixty
  years and the LOVERS of PEACE / HUMAN RIGHTS / LAW / JUSTICE will
  take advantage of my sincere,serious offer for bringing PEACE ,
  PEACE , PEACE.
