Re: where is the middle road?
I condemn massacre of innocents. But when it comes to Terrorists, I don't condemn it. Infact I think it was a long time coming. Its like getting rid of a rat infestation. People don't cry when Rats die, or do they?
well, they were humans and not proven guilty in a court of law. opinions do not matter in life and death
How was this savage?
Because almost 700 people lost their lives and no hostages were found. what was the operation for other than what you are telling, killing the rats?
Didn't the Terrorists in the Red Mosque want to die? After 6 months of being holed up in there. And endless negotiations. I mean what savagery was there?
Every one is ready to die one day, but off course you just cannot kill all using brute force. I do not think that if they were ready to die, govt did ehsan and killed them.
Did we use F-16 and completely obliterate the Red Mosque? We send in SSG so that they can rescue the hostages and save innocent lives.
where were the hostages? where are their interviews and their feelings of being freed. All hoax.
Please come back to reality. If Pakistan wanted, we could have completely destroyed the Red Mosque and everyone in it by dropping a couple of Bunker Buster Bombs on it from our F-16's. The fact that we lost 11 Brave Soldiers and continued to negotiate with these terrorists so that people can escape completely negates your point.
Exactly, we would never have lost these brave soldiers if we have not used such high handed tactics. That is my point. Using F-16 was baseless as government was claiming that it is rescuing hostages which were infact none.
To Disarm the terrorists inside the mosque. Fire when fired upon. And the safety and security of innocents in the Mosque.
Okay, i buy that. But ROE are longer than that. how you open fire, which body part to be shot first etc etc.
He was caught in a crossfire between his Terrorist bodyguards and the SSG and thus he had 22 bullet injuries.
Hmm. 12 from point blank range. This is execution man
And now that Ghazi brother who escpaed in a Burka is going to get a trial. How can we put people on trial when we can't arrest them?
Okay. You did not put him on trial once you arrested him last time and left him. This is selective application of rule of law. anyway lets see what happens next.
When we go to arrest them they fire on us and thus we have to take this action.
SSG never goes to arrest people. It only goes in case of hostage rescue and there were no hostages.
There is indeed a major difference. Just read my responses.
Well that is your thought and i cannot argue any more on this thing. I would like to see the evidences of all foreigners and proclaimed offenders details
Lets condemn the Lal Mosque but when the terrorists refuse then they deserve their fate.
Okay, they got their fate but you just cannot kill every person in the country who disagrees to you. a line has to be drawn.
