Re: Imran Khan - Pakistan's cornered tiger
Desi I dont know what is your back ground but your statements does sound like of an educated but biased hindu banyan. As far as Imran is concern, he is a proud pathan and Pakistan. He is educated, may have experienced western life like most of us, but I think people who adopt islamic way of life after experiencing western way of life are better human being and better muslims, since they know both way of life and choose the best (Islamic). FYI islam is not just a religion it is a complete code of life. Unfortunately, many muslims are believers of Islam but are not true followers of codes of Islam.
Islam always teaches moderation, and extremism in any form could be bad, but it doesn't mean Islamic parties or Talibans were bad. As an indian, Kashmiris and islamic fighters may look to you as terrorists but what would you call those organized, highly trained, and equiped with sophisticated weapons people who goes and rape innocent women and kill helpless people in the streets and houses of Kashmir, Pelastines and Baghdad?
I do condemn any brutality against humanity, but if you have a powerful, highly trained and equipt invador (lets not call enemy) on your land, and looting your resources and supressing your rights, and you don't have military might to match them, then what options you have? Only option left is Gurella war, and if you are weak in weaponary then your tactics (suicide bombing) may cause civilian casulaties, but unfortunately that is the only way you can force the mainstream peoples to ask the mighty power to stop brutalities.
I think most of so called terrorism in the world is because of supression of innocent, helpless people by mighty people. Lets hope we understand and respect everyone rights and bring peace, prosperity, hope and hapiness on the earth.
