Re: Terrorists storm Peshawar school, Scores of students killed
Brother, what you wrote is not only funny logic but un-Islamic too.
Funny logic part is that … according to you … aerial bombing was chosen and also outside help was called (drone attacks) to remove risk to our (Pakistani) soldier … then you suggest that ground offensive would have been better, as that may have caused casualties (to Pakistani soldiers) … but that would have limited to killing of fighters only.
Now, that logic is funny, because if there was procedure available (aerial bombing) to Pakistani army that can kill terrorists as well as reduce casualties to Pakistani soldiers, than not to adopt that is idiocy, regardless of who else get killed in process. Men in Pakistan army (or any army) are not cheap and spendable bodies that Pakistan army risks their lives for terrorists and their family members who want to live and die with terrorists.
Pakistan army announced before operation that they are going to start operation, asking people to move out of the area, and hence we have so many IDPs. If after that announcement, anyone wanted to live in that area, just because they wanted to die with family members who were terrorists, than hard luck to them. They would get killed in bombing, and their death would be their own fault.
Islam: Pakistan army is fighting rebels, traitors and terrorists who are Kharjees too. For instance, these people rebelled against Pakistan, are traitors of Pakistan, and since they are killing innocent Pakistanis, they are terrorists too. Because they are Kharjees (Takfiris and killers), it is duty of every Muslim to kill them.
Pakistan army is paid by Pakistanis to protect them from all sorts of armed attackers, including Kharjee terrorists. Thus, to kill Taliban Kharjee terrorists is duty of Pakistan army to Pakistanis as well as to Allah (duty towards Pakistan and duty towards Islam).
In Islam, if an enemy is hidden in a house (or at a place) and some people (his family or whoever) are with him in that house intentionally (even when they are innocent, but have choice to leave), and to kill this enemy without getting hurt is to destroy the house than it is allowed in Islam to destroy the house, and in process, if innocent with the enemy also get killed than it is fine.
So, though I believe most TTP Kharjee terrorists getting killed by the army are without their women and children, hence very few if any women and children got killed by army attacks, but even if some women and children did decide to stay with terrorist and got killed by Pak army (or drones) bombing, than that is fine… though, obviously if they got killed in bombing, their killing cannot be called unethical intentional killing.
As for terrorists killing children at school (or any of their killings of innocent), their killings was unethical and intentional… Obviously, no one expect these kharjees to be ethical, but what they did, hopefully would give ‘Pakistan army’ and ‘Pakistani people’ more resolve to kill these Kharjees and kill them more efficiently.
In my opinion, with killing of Kharjees, army should also start stringent operation against financiers, sympathisers, apologists, promoters, supporters. collaborators, and voices of these Taliban Kharjee terrorists wherever they could be found all across Pakistan, in madrasas, mosques, media, politics, various jobs, clerics, academics, bureaucracies, judiciaries, police, businesses, intelligence agencies. as well as in armed forces (as this institutions also have some) … InshaAllah … putting all who are found guilty in jail or hang them high.
