Re: MQM and Karachi - Shoaib Suddle and Tariq Lodhi
Every political party has the right to exist including MQM. It has support of a lot of people and we all should respect that. However, unlike other parties at the moment MQM has a military/Terrorist wing which needs to be dismantled. Now the choice was given to Altaf Hussain and others by Zardari and Nawaz Sharif to do it themselves and join the mainstream political parties and Sindh government. I guess they refused that option by doing what they did couple of weeeks ago in Tahir Center again. They didn't learn a thing from May 12. So, the very next day Suddle was brought in.
You can't blaime PPP for doing what is neccessary to bring some order to Karachi. there is too much street crime and bhutta Khori mostly by this group. I hope and pray that MQM leadership wakes up and realizes that Mushy is no longer there to protect them and they are totally isolated. They need to stop their thugs (I am not sure if MQM leadership has any control over them any longer? Sometimes I think they don't) from burning and killing people and they will be welcome to join the government and be productive for the people of Karachi and Pakistan. It is that simple.
My two cents..
