re: Violence in Karachi [all threads merged]
MQM gets out of government and this is how PPP/ANP gives payback. MQM’s members have been getting targeted since long, but after MQM left government they have started attacking common Urdu speaking people.
Iconoclast, why blame MQM alone? **By blaming this violence solely on MQM your hatred of Urdu speakers is exposed yet again.
**
EVERYONE should be condemned for the violence and this includes ANP and PPP members too.
If MQM is to be blamed for it then why is it demanding action from police and rangers?

Criticising police and Rangers for taking no action against armed militants creating widespread harassment in violence-hit areas, an MQM statement said that armed militants “have been attacking residential premises of the citizens…while police and Rangers…avoided taking any action against the militants”.
“Many people here had run out of their food stocks. There is no milk for children and no chance of patients being shifted to hospitals for treatment,” said Mohammad Asghar, a schoolteacher in the Orangi area.
“We are left at the mercy of trigger-happy scoundrels and the security forces are conspicuous by their absence,” he added.
