Re: What lead us to this situation in Pakistan.

Yes its terrorism.

Now let me try to evaluate why that happened...

Remember in current world every country and its leadership have their own vested interests which they want to protect at all costs and for that they use different tactics inside and outside their country's physical bounderies. We know Pakistan used "jehadis", and America used us to use "jehadis" indirectly. We also know that Iran is using hizbollah and uzbek war lords in afghanistan. It's like these powers are clinching their muscles and using tactics to get some hold for their own benefits and secruity ( as ace cards ). We can assume that around 60's and 70's Iran decided that it needs to set good foot hold in Pakistan and for that purpose it used the Relegious aspect.

Now we also know that there are fundamental conflicts between Sunnis and Shia Idealogy and beliefs, which is not a problem, as we know that both are muslims. I think 4 major factors lead to the conflict between shia and sunnis in Pakistan:

1 - Saudi fear of Iran setting good foothold in region and gaining power after Iraq failed and become a dominant regional power.

2 - Stupidity of Mullah's from both side that rooted the seed of doubt and enemity.

3 - Indian intervention, as Pakistan was fighting a proxy war and India also adopted this strategy by supporting MQM in karachi/sindh.

3a - If two people who are very volatile and have deeply rooted suspecion about each other can be easily brought to a level where they start fighting or go to peace stance/love given there is a 3rd party which interest is either to start them fightand kill each other or have them solve their issue peacefully. I believe Indian proxy war also made its contribution and some of the bombings were the work of RAW (Every thing is fair in love and war :) ).

Given the above factors I think once it started somehow it escalated rom both sides and we know Both Mosques and Imam barghas were bombed. I blame Mullahs and regional powers ( Iran and Saudia) and our people, because it was not the war of people shia/sunni it was proxy war of Saudia and Iran and the common people, who were FORCED to take sides and start hating each other, forgetting the fact that their fates are bounded together and they have to live together no matter what.
