It was obvious, that he broke the back of the MQM militants. Neutral authors such as Shahid Javaid Burki confirm that it was infact true that he did. and terrorists dont count as civilians. fahi commando, waleed etc, they were responsible for the civilians dying…
Diwana, what are your thoughts on the successive operations in Baluchistan and the recent military operations conducted up north?
I also disagree that civilians were being killed deliberately. It wasn’t civilians, granted there must have been some collateral, considering how grave the situation was.
It isnt a contradiction diwana bhai, if theres such a mass operation in such a big densely populated city, where the suspects are hiding within the people, a collateral is a given… Furthermore, alot of people can testify to the fact that it was infact the MQM leadership that killed many civilians to perpetrate a human rights angle to the whole operation. It was a deep rooted effort to topple the short democratic stints in the 90s by anti-Pakistani elements.
Alqaida is not in favor of Pakistan either (they don’t even accept the constitution of Pakistan) and drone strikes aren’t against civilians, granted there must have been some collateral considering the situation in Waziristan…
