yea they are all charged up…what is the use of ruining your own home…they destoyed more than 60 motorbikes…(ghareebon ka aur nuksan)…and so many cars and buildings …
they arrested my brother even when he was going to his college…all the students came like a flood..and they were literally abusing those who didnt want to join the procession…and police thogut he was with them…
i just dont know what to do in the present condition..
try living in pak,u will become a psychotic case too..
that is not a defence,simply evaluation.
we cant get sense into educated people who r more or less ‘‘parhay likhay jahil’’ ,so attempt at getting sense into those who r not educated and frustrated from the top of their heads to the soles! impossible.
Now Mullah is denying that they are not even involved in it. They are now blaming the government saying that there was no police or even Police assisted the troublemakers.
According to information, there were no protests in Peshawar until the voilent protests in Punjab and Islamabad. It is strange that police mostly were by-standers letting the mob do what they wanted to do. It is strange that common people stayed away from the voilence and these were only small mobs here and there doing the acts of subversion.
The religious frenzy is going to benefit Mullahs as well as dictators by sending the message to the concerned quarters that etremism is well-entrenched annd strong men and institutions are needed to keep it in check.
Damage to propertty and discomfort to people has left negative impression on massess.
But all this is just a manisfestation of something more serious. Lahore has become the center of extremist ideologies. All pan-Islamist, political-Islamist, militant-Islamist ideologies like Tanzeem Islami, Jumaat-i-Islami, Tabaleegh Movement, Tahrik-i-Khalafat, Jumaatul Mulimeen, Pervaizyat, Sapah-i-Sahaba, Tahrul Qadri etc. are eminating from Lahore.
Once protest turned violent, private and public property was damaged, businesses attacked, rights of Pakistani citizens violated by these thugs rampaging in the name of religion, all debate must end with simply one objective: finding the culprits, putting them on trial and given exemplary punishment. Any discussion, rationalization or criticism of 'others' has no relevance, counterproductive to the victims grievances and takes soceity on the slippery road of total anarchy.
In the name of fairness, justice and protection of rights we all should condemn these thugs and demand compensation for their victims.
LastOfTheDinosaurs , that's quite a twist on what actually happened. The first violence was in Peshawar with some rock throwing and the next day Lahore saw worse violence. In Peshawar it was a combination of Mullahs, jihadi groups, students, traders, and Afghan refugees.
Bring the totality of this issue before the OIC, and then let us see whether the Arab states, Indonesia, Turkey and Muslim Africa and others will join Iran and Pakistan?
What the Iranian newspaper is doing is equally condemnable. Putting up a contest for cartoons on the Holocaust is not an effective nor a justifiable response. The Holocaust was one of the darkest chapters in history, and not stuff to be made fun of. Just like the cartoons on the Prophet Mohammad are in extremely bad taste and outrageous-- freedom of the press being abused to the limit-- so is this "contest."
They should burns all the pants, shirts and even toys for their kids. Oh they should blow up all the cars as well while they at it- everything is ANGREEEZ-
I never understood why they burned tires i think Pakistan is the only place where they need the most tires cause you dont know when someone will need to start their protest.
It simply amazes me the way most of these people show off. I don't say we should not protest but violence is not the solution.
Barhe aey muslamaan bane i just wanna ask that guy in shirt if he got up for fajar this morning?
Instead of helping ummah to get out of a label of third world country they are helping to make it even more poor. People are dying for food and much more and they are wasting things like these. It does not take much to influence these people anywayz.
It is true that protest meetings were held in Peshawar addressed by Akram Duranni, the CM, probably a week before the recent one but all that was peaceful. No such incident occured as you've mentioned.
The recent protests in Peshawar were held after the events in Lahore and Islamabad.
One thing is very satisfying though i.e., according to my acquiantances in Peshawar, masses haven't liked the voilence. Common people are calling those damaging the property and resorting to voilence thugs and loot-maran. Even my religious friends whom I called were enraged with what happened and called the mob thieves that had found the opportunity to do the pludering.
Qazi Hussain Ahmad in a presss conference has blamed "invisible forces."
You are right but until we put a gate at Attok that would block the flow of ideological propaganda, all condemnation would be futile. On top of that, you have ruling structures that have pampered, and are still pampering, these monsters for their politics.
In every decade, at least two-three ideological movements spring from the "fertile" soil of the Subcontinent and spread around causing confusion and instability. From Deobandiath and Bareliat to the recent Al-Maurid you find a panorama of conflicing, and sometimes mutually combatant, sects, ideologies, and school of religous thoughts coming in militant shades, Pan-Islamist shades, sectarian shades, and you name it.
Offcourse fazlu and qazi will come out blaming “invisible forces” as only they could probably see these “invisible forces” due to their high “moral” stature !
