Re: Civilian casualties from the war [split: Musharraf was responsible for rise..]
Pakistan is at war, it has been for a long time now. As long as we are talking about civilian casualties why don’t we start with the hundreds killed in suicide bombings throughout the country in the past yr alone.

Pakistan tops Iraq, Afghanistan in suicide bombing deaths
AFP: 26 killed in suicide attack on Pakistan police**
**
30 die as twin suicide blasts rock Lahore**
**100 die in Taleban suicide bombing

the enemy is within, using civilians as a shield in the north west and for target practice in other parts, its a sad day indeed to be fighting a war within the confines of our own borders but every possible option was availed to avoid this, including making a deal with the devil itself, just to bring peace and avoid human suffering. Army action now is unavoidable because the sanctity of this sovereign nation is at stake thus the evacuation of thousands of residents to safe havens to avoid innocent casualties
