I have red all the replies, and I can understand Y the members of MQM have disagreed as no matter what the reality is, they just look forward and obey what their master has to say from London.
Along with MQM there are few who sits and enjoy their lives in USA, apparently have no idea about the ground realities, about the geo-graphic location , about the history of this place and most importantly about the so-called Pakistan's war on terror.
How it was Pakistan's war on terror, when Pakistan never started it, Yes Pakistan did provided logistic support to USA to launch attacks on Afghanistan. But never-ever Pakistani forces took any part in the invasion of Afhganistan..
The Taliban Terrorists take refuge in Pakistan.
It was when American after 4/5 years of invasion, seen no victory or chances of having one, started blaming everything on Pakistan. They were beaten and well beaten by Afghani Freedom-Fighters, with all their latest technology and war-equipments, Americans were limited to their cantonments or some big cities like Kabul.
Why do these so called freedom fighters hide in Pakistan? Why don't they live among the people in Afghanistan like the Iraqi Insurgents who enjoyed broad support from the people and did not run away into Syria whenever American troops were send in there.
Since neither they are freedom fighters but a bunch of brainwashed animals send in from Pakistan to kill innocent people and blow people up.
As for American Technology....their drone attacks have been deadly. Many top Al Qaeda and Taliban animals have been killed. Much to your discomfort I am sure.
To find an exit and divert world's attention from the humilating defeat, they with the help of Media and India ( Arch rival of Pakistan), started a campaign against Pakistan, setting the ground, unfortunately, at that time Paksitan was under Musharaf, who was unable to see anything but his chair. Thats when it was frst time labeled as Pakistan's war.
When 6,000 Pakistanis have been killed in Terrorist attacks. When Pakistan does not control the NWFP and Tribal Areas. When they openly attack our troops. Whose war is it but not Pakistan?
Are you really this naive?
Now, some so-called leaders, while sitting in London, are showing their fears and reservation againt Talibans, these leaders are right on that, but what steps Pakistan has to take to overcome this threat, how to tackle the issue with minimum loss of Life, how to solve the problem.. none has given the practical/real solution.
The solution is you give them a final ultimatum. Lay down your arms, respect the law and constitution of Pakistan, do not impose your will on others and stop hosting foreign terrorists and stop all attacks in Afghanistan. If you don't then you will suffer the consequences.
I am not the biggest Fan of Imran Khan, nor his article is flawless, as it has not came from Allah, these are thoughts of a person, but in principle his article does carry point...
The Afghan problem is not going to be solved unless and untill American forces pack their bags and go home, Pakistan has the capacity to deal with them.. but undermining the Indian threat and just concentrating on Taliban is not the way to solve the problem...
How has Pakistan the capacity to deal with the Taliban?
They get their ass kicked each time they send in troops to fight them. They fled in disgrace from Tribal Areas and now they have re-treated from Swat.
We Pakistanies ( who live on the ground-realities) have to live here, we cannot kill everyone who have different ideology, as an ideology cannot be killed, evening most powerfull roman empire was not able to kill the ideology of christianity... no one has ever able to kill an ideology with power and weapons ( if any, please let me know) ideology can be cured with different ideology.. thats it.. no weapons can be used to eliminate it. I don't know why people say that kill every Taliban.. why don't they say they cure them... may be it is because thats the tactic Protestants adpoted against Catholics, but even that never paid...
Try the Nazis, Facists, Imperialists during World War II. The difference between the ideology is that it is a minority trying to impose its will on others. NWFP and Swat don't want this kind of extremist islamic laws. Thats why the Taliban always need arms to hold people hostage because they and their lifestyle is not welcome.
The enemies of Pakistan want to drive Pakistan into a civil war, where the country shall be divided amoung the moderates and talibans, moderates led by somebody like Altaf Hussain and some other feudals, and talibans led by some fanatics... this civil war will bring no-good to Pakistan...
Pakistan does not need outside help to be driven into a civil war. Pakistan created this monster called the Taliban and used it to take over Afghanistan and then funneled them into Kashmir.
Now it is something they can't control and Pakistan is paying the price.
Instead of blaming Hindus, Jews, Christians, the West, Israel, Mossad, CIA, Pakistanis should do some soul searching and come to terms with how they are progressing as a nation.
