Re: Bannu Jirga gives deadline to Taliban...
I hope to God, the army actively supports this jirga and it's lashkar and not leave them to be beheaded one by one as was previously the case.
Beg to disagree.
We don't need to support one jirga against the other. If someone wants to do positive stuff, they should join police, FC, or other law enforcement agencies. Arms should only be used by the state-mandated agencies.
We don't live in the time of vigilante justice where every Tom, Dick, and Harry (Anwar Khan, Aslam Khan, and Gulab khan) can take their guns out and shoot people in the streets.
We should not tolerate tribal behavior even from those who want to do good thing.
The time to be tribal is over, and time to be civilized is here. The sooner we realize this, the better it is for all of us.
