I am not a supporter or sympathiser of MQM, but in the final analysis it is a legitimate political party which takes part in the democratic set up, unlike the Talib animals, thugs and murderers. When people of Karachi and Sindh get fed up of them they will throw them out. Taliban comes through the barrel of gun and kill innocent people and enforce their barbaric and stone age systems by force. One thing here people of Swat DID NOT ask for sharia. In the last elections they overwhelmingly voted for ANP which is a secular party. Why? Because they are sick and tired of these so called thakedars of islam. There is nothing Islamic about Taliban, they are a bunch of murderers and that is it. The quicker we get rid of them the better.
completely agree, on both the MQM question and the Swat question.
If the Taleban became a political entity rather than a military one, and tried to get their agenda through civic/political means, there would be no harm in supporting them.
As it stands, they are actively fighting Pakistani state forces and attempting to expand control through the use of force in different parts of Pakistan. There is no comparison of that with MQM, atleast the establishment party that MQM represents today.
