السلام عليكم و رحمة الله و بركاته
I have no objections if they are doing it within their premises of embassy, but the venue of the ceremony is not clear at all.. In fact, Col Jaffry also wrote:
a) "reportedly"; and
b) " if the event was held out of sheer ignorance or by design – in any case both
being highly unwise, undiplomatic and unwarranted.
Hence, it should be understood that the objection raised only if the ceremony held at any venue other than the US embassy.
I have a firm beleif that whoever is attending such kind of ceremony from Pakistan is our brother/sister. Therefore, as far as "Who are we to teach some one Pakistani who goes there"? then my friend please tell me if we will not tell him/her then who would? Remember, I am only suggesting to teach orally, no forcing is suggested as we all know that "La ikraha fid deen"....
Allah knows best......

| Reference to Hamood ur Rub appreciation of Col Jaffery intervention.... According to the Diplomatic norms Embassy is considered part of the country whos embassy it is..not of the host country, so they can arrange any kind of function there. Secondly if some one Pakistani goes there and attend then who are you to teach them and who has given you and Col the right to teach athics. Please have mecy and leave these suppressed and depressed people of this country to live on their own. Hope you understand my point. Best wishes

Subject: **JP** Letter to Editor - Gay Lesbian Ceremony To: joinpakistan@googlegroups.com Date: Sun, 3 Jul 2011 23:20:07 +0500 From: jafri@rifiela.com Dear Join Pakistan LETTER TO EDITOR July 3 rd, 2011 Gay Lesbian Ceremony USembassy Islamabad reportedly held a "Gay, Lesbian Bisexual and Transgender (GLBT) Pride Celebration" ceremony on June 26 th 2011 to show Washington's support and solidarity towards the GLBTs of Pakistan. Could there be anything more stupid than this for the USA to do in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, where such homosexuality is not only looked down upon with utmost scorn and contempt but also considered an awful sin? How many GLBTs would be in Pakistan? Not even Zero Zero One per cent. And for that miniscule number the USA took the risk of antagonising 99.99 percent people of Pakistan! Could the embassy not foresee the negative impact of such a function on the US-Pak relations which are already not very congenial? One simply fails to understand if the event was held out of sheer ignorance or by design – in any case both being highly unwise, undiplomatic and unwarranted. Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd) Col.
