Re: 11 workers killed in a day: MQM-H
There is no need to support or help MQM-H. They do not have people's vote on their side, so its better to get rid of such non-democratic groups, if they are in collision course with a democratically elected group.
It appears we are again going to see the street fights between MQM H and Muttahidda in Pak Colony, Liaqatabad, Lines Area, Malir, Korangi and Landhi. Bad days are ahead again?
Re: 11 workers killed in a day: MQM-H
You are right. There seemed to be another bloody chapter in offing by MQM leader AH. By the way how did he know that? If his news is authentic, he should reveal, who is doing this?
You know what, he and his party of goons only thrive in dictatorship, they have absolutely no idea about values of democracy and jeo aor jeeno do.

KARACHI: Altaf warns of anti-MQM plot
By Our Staff Reporter
KARACHI, March 18: Muttahida Qaumi Movement chief Altaf Hussain has said that a big cache of arms and ammunition was being distributed in the metropolis as a part of conspiracy to target MQM workers and sympathisers.
He was addressing a gathering of MQM workers and supporters on telephone from London at a programme held here to observe the 24th foundation day of the party on Tuesday night. The address was relayed simultaneously to 25 cities of the country, including Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad.
Mr Hussain said that a conspiracy was being hatched by unscrupulous elements to engineer riots in Karachi and a large cache of arms was being distributed to gag the voice of Muttahida workers. “We want peace and do not want fighting but any attempt against us will be paid back in the same coin,” he remarked.
The gathering replied in the affirmative when Mr Hussain asked whether Muttahida workers and sympathisers were ready to face future challenges.
He thanked the Pakistan Muslim League (Quaid) and other opposition parties for nominating MQM’s Dr Farooq Sattar as their joint candidate for the prime minister slot.
“Asif Ali Zardari is saying that they will talk to the MQM after forming a government and with the permission of Nawaz Sharif but we do not want charity,” he said. Despite all this, he added, the Muttahida would continue to support every positive step of the next government.
He said that the opposition parties got success in the February 18 general election from all the four provinces unlike the Nawaz Sharif-led Muslim League which was limited to Punjab.
Criticising the remarks of Nawaz Sharif that he was inheriting an economically collapsed country, he questioned: “Why don’t you (the PML-N) announce that you will play the role of the opposition instead of running after power?”
Mr Hussain said that some political and religious parties were spreading a negative propaganda against the MQM but all such conspiracies would be thwarted as the propaganda would not limit the struggle of the MQM that wanted to root out the feudal system from the country.
Recalling that the MQM was formed on March 18, 1984, he said that it had been struggling for the rights of the oppressed people since then. He congratulated the people on the 24th foundation day of the MQM. “The MQM had been termed an anti-state party and even it was blamed for hatching a conspiracy to create Jinnahpur. However, the establishment failed to stop the MQM’s struggle and today the message of the party has spread to the whole country,” he added.
Re: 11 workers killed in a day: MQM-H
You are right. There seemed to be another bloody chapter in offing by MQM leader AH. By the way how did he know that? If his news is authentic, he should reveal, who is doing this?
The other popular parties in Karachi are PPP, ANP and to some extent JI. If the current violence in Karachi was against them, then you would have easily blamed Muttahidda and Altaf for all this.
But MQM H has less than zero support in Karachi. Certainly someone is sponsoring them. And whoever is doing that is not doing any good to Karachi and Pakistan. This is not the way to counter Muttahidda's militancy. It would only make home poeple of Karachi that MQM H is being again imposed on them and will increase their support for Altaf.
Re: 11 workers killed in a day: MQM-H
Naserullah Babar was involved in extra judicial killings of MQM workers, but most of those workers were involved in murders, tortures of opponents. Though the Operation Cleanup affected many many innocent people too but on large it resulted in restoration of peace in the city (not as much loot maar, qatl-o-gharat, burning on strikes as it used to be). Probably thats what is needed for Islamabad, Lahore, FATA etc.
Sensible post.
Re: 11 workers killed in a day: MQM-H
So much hatred for staunch opponents that you want to kill them all. That is absolutely undemocatic and barbarian attitude:(
They are not my staunch opponents. They oppose people's choice. I am in favour of not helping them IFF they are on collision course with MQM.
Re: 11 workers killed in a day: MQM-H
Robert,
In democracy, opposition is allowed to live and criticize. You cannot silent people by killing just because they are in opposition. Staunch opponents means, opponents to MQM, not you, unless you are also part of this fascist organization.
Re: 11 workers killed in a day: MQM-H
unless you are also part of this fascist organization.
which fascist organization MQM-H or MQM-A?
Re: 11 workers killed in a day: MQM-H
^MQM-A. The rest are just defectors.
Re: 11 workers killed in a day: MQM-H
^MQM-A. The rest are just defectors.
People in Karachi think otherwise.
Re: 11 workers killed in a day: MQM-H
Again I hope this will not start a chain reaction. Can AH/MQM stop this nonsense?

Re: 11 workers killed in a day: MQM-H
Can Mush do something to stop this genocide before leaving office of president? People will always remeber him if he takes some concrete steps to stop this nonsense.
Re: 11 workers killed in a day: MQM-H
I would'nt be surprised if its a conspiracy against the elected party in Karachi.
Re: 11 workers killed in a day: MQM-H
Yes if the elected party itself not involved.

Saga of killings continued. Is this a way to tell Zaradari and NS that if MQM sits in opposition can create chaos like this?
