So you mean the prophecy of the Pir Altaf has turned right???

I knew that MQM was wished to distruction of Pakistan since its incorporation and now when their counterparts are working on it, MQM just see joys out of it...

Pakistani forces will manage to get them selves out of this situation soon ( InshaAllah) and i am sure, then MQM will not spark any riots in Karachi or will they...

Bait ullah Mehsood, Molvi Fazil Ullah and many like them are people with foreign money and support, Indians are directly supporting these traitors of Pakistan and poor economic condition of the region has been feul on the fire...

Tribals and Pakhtun'kha people are normally known as loyal to Pakistan, these few traitors can cause some nuisance, but they have no capacity to work at large... these people shall see their end soon... Pakistani forces will respond to this latest wave of terrorism.. and Pakistan shall prevail..

In all the countries, there was a time of civil war kind of situation, countries does comeout of these crisis and sorry minds and ill-wishers just found another excuse to curse the country...

Pakistan has to do some major operation and policy making to curb terrorism, I am sure they are working on it, I think Allah that, Agencies are not under the most incompatible minster of all time, Rehman Malik ( who have all the informaiton but lack the ability and skills to act on one, who can jam the Mobile service in ISB but have no idea how to trace or cut the FM radio of Fazul ullah... and Baitullah mehsood's telephonic network)

Pakistan will florish, things like this is part of nations game, India our neighbour is in trouble with dozens of rebel movement, more vital, more deadly then we got...

All we need to do is to believe in Pakistan, the theory of Pakistan and who ever don't believe in one, should feel free to leave Pakistan, like Altaf hussain left Pakistan and got the citizen ship of another country..

Well this solution may sound lunatic for some, but, for what it's worth, I will say that pakistan can allow implimenting Shariah in the areas where Taliban has bigger say. Let them handle their way of life as per their own wish, afterall that land belongs to them as they are natives, right?.

Further as I understand, Muslims of Punjab-Sindh are not supportive of Talibani Shariah, so let these areas be secured. Many countries have one country--two system policy.

The problem will be US objections, and rightly so, if the Talibans use the land to attack any foreign country -- US, Europe, A'stan, Iran or India, then they have to pay for that.

If they wish to live as per their Shariah way of life, then I dobn't think there should objections. zardari for once did a right thing by agreeing with SWAT Taliban as long as they don't interfere in others way of life.

And how do u know they have refused???

Army is in battle field, they are being sandwiched with Indian/American Supported Taliban and the real extremists they are fighting with.

Pak-Afghan border has turned into a global arena, where Indians, Iranians, Chinese, American, NATO and every other power is playing some role... Pak-Army is fighting there, they have suffered with heavy causalities, sometime in the form of friendly fire from NATO Forces and sometime in combat.

Yes Army had concealed a deal with Taliban of Fazululah and to me that is better strategy as Army can focus on the FATA area and get rid of these real b****rds.

Things will get better though it may take some time and if you have geological info of the FATA region, spring is there, it is easy to target and kill these TTP people, i urge Pak-Ariforce to widen the battle ground to Afghanistan, and follow them and kill them there...

Except for Bajaur and parts of Mohamed, the army no longer challenges taliban rule in rest of FATA. Reason is due to the divided loyalties of some in the army. Read this from NY Times.

There have been at least a half-dozen reported courts-martial of soldiers who refused to fight, and the real number was probably larger, Professor Hussain said.

In Jhelum, a town 100 miles south of Islamabad and a place with a proud military history, one village had shown in the boldest terms the anger about the military fighting Muslims on Pakistani soil, said Enver Baig, a former senator with the Pakistan Peoples Party, who considers himself a pro-American politician.

When the body of a soldier killed in the tribal areas was taken home to his family last year, the father refused to accept his son’s coffin, Mr. Baig said.

Instead, the father took off his shoe and used it to slap the army officer who had escorted the body.

A month later, when another soldier’s body was delivered to the same village, the army left the body on the village outskirts, Mr. Baig said.

All the madrassas should be nationalised with immediate effect. They should be converted in to regular schools and the money we are going to get from foreign countries should be diverted to this cause. Even if that money is not enough I think once government takes some concrete steps like these the international community will be more than willing to help us with this cause. The carriculum of these schools should be same as normal mainstream schools.

Re: 2 attcks per week promised by Pakistani Taliban

That some people are lambasting me is hilarious! I am just pointing out the blindingly obvious. Others still suggest we let the writ of state decay further by allowing Sharia law in areas under their control.

Why dont we regain control!? Why let the state slip? Why surrender to backward regulatory framework and impose that on our women?

I hope Med is right and Pakistan govt realizes the situation. US military intelligence put a bottom time of 6 months on a Pakistani collapse, thats unbelievable. We must fight for the nation, it will be violent-but its violent already, let us strike back!

We will either defeat the Islamists or be consumed by them.

A choice
