Lal Masjid Siege Thread - Operation Silence (merged)

Re: Breaking News: Paramilitary Police clash with Lal Mosque idiots!

I second that.....

Yes, ofcourse some sort of action was needed but govt didn't handle it properly. There are very imp things that are missed by a lot of us such as,

  1. general public had no idea about the curfew and/or operation. How come police was ordered to shoot people right away.

  2. In any country or place under any govt, proper strategies are made. Why there weren't any ambulances ready before the operation. Why 2 innocent poeple who were apparently going to work in the morning (obviously unawared of the curfew) were shot. Those poor injured guys were miserably looking for help on the road for more than an hour. And there was no medical help. We don't know if they survived.

  3. Its late to mention but govt could save islamabad from this embarrasement a long time ago. Why didn't they start negotiations etc. at the time when this whole drama was started.
    When the CD stores were burned - wasn't that the right time to do some future planning. Didn't govt. realize that things weren't going good and they needed to plan some strategies.....

  4. Also, now govt is offering help to those orphan students. may be things could be different if those students were offered the same a few months ago....
