MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

Should other political parties be a part of that rally to give a collective verdict to the terrorists?

MQM to hold anti-terror rally tomorrow - DAWN.COM

KARACHI: The Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) will stage a rally in the port city of Karachi tomorrow to show its solidarity with the Pakistan Army, Rangers and other law enforcement personnel fighting against terrorism, DawnNews reported.
The rally would be held on Karachi’s Shahrah-e-Quaideen at 3 pm in the afternoon.
A meeting of its central coordination (Rabita) committees in Karachi and London decided to hold the rally.
Speaking to members of the Rabita committee, MQM chief Altaf Hussain said the public and the army shared a united stance against terrorism.
He moreover appealed to the public to participate in the rally in order to prove that they were with the Pakistan Army and other law enforcement agencies against fighting militancy.
Meanwhile, party members, along with the MQM leadership, support the crackdowns against terrorists.
Speaking at a Haleem party in Karachi, MQM member Babar Ghouri said the political leadership of the country had mandated the federal government to restore peace in the country during the All Parties Conference (APC) meeting and not to hold peace talks with the Taliban.

Great , Some time they do some good .

Re: MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

Before army operation where were their rallies? Forming rallies against TTP do not make them better than TTP. Opportunists and back stabbers always playing cheap politics. Since this issue is now rightly tackled by army, no one should make political scoring on such operation.

Re: MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

No , They were against TTP since long . Actually TTP was chalenging them in Karachi so .....................

Re: MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

They were afraid of TTP because they were challenging them in Karachi and MQM had opposed them only because of fear of snatching away Karachi from them and not because of their terrorists activities, as they were themselves big time terrorists. They founded terrorists activities in Karachi not TTP.

Re: MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

They might be the pioneers (which was JI by the way) but now they have competitors in the shape of TTP and PAC. if MQM is doing this for political point scoring, does PPP do similar things for Allah kay waastay?

Re: MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

Little better . They don't use the name of Islam for killing , robbery , Looting , extortion and ransom . No suicide attacks by them .

Re: MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

I had never supported the national politics of JI, but JI was never involved in terrorism in Karachi when they were ruling Karachi until eighties.

Re: MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

They learned these tactics from AH and his cronies. TTP went one step further on terrorism and introduced suicide bombings.

Their rallies always created chaos and hatred in addition to traffic jams, making lives of peaceful people miserable.

Re: MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

I am always against Altaf and can not support him but appriciate this move .

Re: MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

Interesting, probably that is why PPP did not initiate any counter-terrorism because it was not really threatened to lose any 'constituency' to TTP. Same goes to PMLN then.

More with PTI

Re: MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

MQM is the only one who gave a heads up to Sindh Govt back in 2008-09 when TTP was making space in Karachi on the back of ANP and PPP to tackle MQM but nobody took the note and once TTP got stable, they kicked back their own ANP brothers and now paying the price.

Re: MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

Even if they are doing it for political 'point scoring', other 'liberal' parties should join in to get share of the pie of that score.

Re: MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

^ and this is the sad part of our common story..... Har Ek apni alag masjid bana leta hai to not else get benefit from it, look at one of Jiyala when baby Bhutto speaks about Taliban threat his tune is different when MQM raise wise his tune end up on hate. Sad state of affairs this is why few handful militants destroying us in every corner of Pakistan.

Re: MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

MQM has ALWAYS been against Taliban and other extremists. It has always supported army operation. They were the only to talk of Talibanization of Karachi while PPP used to deny it.

Your post is the true representation of PPP Sindh's mindset. They would rather tolerate Talibanization of the city then to do something which, in their narrow-prejudiced mind, might benefit people they hate the most, MQM and Urdu speaking people.

Re: MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

Yes, one extremist (MQM) Party will Protest against other Extremist Party TTP. Army operation should be launched against the extremists of MQM and TTP.. Both Parties should be called to account. When i read this thread.. I was like " 900 Choohay Kha K Bili Chli Hajj Ko"

Re: MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

Fixed.

Re: MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

^Agreed.

Re: MQM to stage anti TTP rally in Karachi

Well, no one need a certificate of loyalty from haters. MQM is doing much better to raised words and stand In real against the fitna we are facing, the current relly like fighting in front against enemies. Weldone MQM.
