Re: Australia unlikely to tour Pakistan
Yes we should beef up security to protect our citizens from these fanatics but there is little one can do if a nutcase decides to ram his explosive-laden bike or car into a military or police truck or straight thru the gates of one of the buildings and blows himself up in the process. People who are brain-washed to such an extent that they are prepared to commit suicide bombings A, need help & B, are almost impossible to stop
I am not so sure I share this helplessness. Yes, we are now veering into a non-cricketing discussion, but lets take this discussion in a logical direction. If mods feel, they can split it up. These suicide bombers get explosives from somewhere. Most likely these explosives are coming from our frontier law-less areas. Our security agencies should be keeping an eye on whats going on and choke the supply of such explosives. They also need to infilterate organizations that are committed to harming Pakistan and Pakistanis in the name of global jihad. Brain-washed suicide bombers should be caught in their steps and not allowed to have access to explosives. I am sure our security agencies can do a much better job in preventing such tragedies, rather than just "investigating" them after the fact and rub their hands to say "we can't stop a moron".
