Re: 10 tourists assassinated in Fairy Meadows (Gilgit)
Stating FACTS is not malicious, its honest. Perhaps the FACT that these terrorists find sanctuary in Pakistan’s tribal areas is to hard for you to accept. Thats not my problem. You can live in your little fantasy land and leave reality to those who are responsible…
You mentioned my American nationality, i didnt bring it up. Dont try to belittle my opinion with cheap shots, and I will do you the same favor.
I agree the US f’ed up by letting these terrorists escape into Pakistan. But Pakistan didn’t do anyone a favor by not cleaning up its side of the border and allowing the Taliban to reorganize and rearm on its side of the border. And currently, the situation is such that Pakistan is under attack, and the people tasked with defending the country are either ignoring the problem or trying to sweep it under the rug with platitudes and “peace” overtures.
I would love for there to be peace. But history has shown the TTP are not sincere, they do not and will not accept the state writ or submit, they negotiate only to gain themselves leverage and momentum to make further inroads. So peace with these people is not an option as it will only embolden them further and make the ultimate task of military intervention that much harder.
Also, i think its deeply disrespectful to the Thousands of innocent Pakistanis that these scum have killed to now forgive all their crimes and negotiate with them. No self respecting nation would ever negotiate with such criminals, responsible for so many atrocities. I dont know how any self respecting Pakistani could ever so shamelessly accept allowing these terrorists to go unpunished.
Opinions amount to sh!t if they arent backed with logical reasoning.
Number one, Pakistan was instrumental in creating the Taliban. Its Pakistan’s own indiscretion and hapless interference in Afghani internal affairs that helped create the situation we are in today.
The Taliban allowed Al Qaeda and other terrorists a refuge in Afghanistan, from where they could execute their attacks on the US. The US lost 3000 on 9/11. Did you think they would let that go unpunished? Americans aren’t like Pakistanis, you don’t murder American citizens en masse and then get rewarded with peace negotiations. you get the boot up where the sun dont shine.
Even if NATO and the US are in Afghanistan and they are the ultimate reason for the Talibans war, that still doesn’t excuse the TTP of murdering Pakistanis. I dont care who created this mess, no one has a right to murder innocent Pakistani citizens.
I see your point. Lets have peace at all cost. But consider the precedence your setting. You can kill Pakistanis at will, and you will never get punished. What message does that send to other extremist groups? And how demoralizing and dehumanizing is it to Pakistanis in general?!? Are Pakistani lives so cheap and meaningless that their govt and army would rather negotiate with those murdering their countrymen then seek justice for them? At what point will the govt of Pakistan stand up for her citizens and show them the same honor other nations show their citizens? They murder Shias, govt does nothing, they attack Christians, they attack Ahmadis, they attack Sunnis that they dont agree with, and yet the rulers of this nation do absolutely nothing about any extremist group. Its pathetic. Wanting to punish such people is not war mongering, its demanding justice.
