it sounds like a ziddi bacha’s statement :D , o bhi, nahi ho sakta best, best ho ga bhee tu 2 din, phir worst ho jaye ga, cuz baqi log kaisay jaibain bharain gain :p

social movement is a must… Bus :D , i , u , we , ordinary ppl shud stand and do something …otherwise khayali pulao pakatain rahain gain aur blogs banatay rahain gain :)

@ R.Mak…I feel you pain my friend, but I wish we could also see the devastation caused by our military in Waziristan and other areas of country. I mean can you imagine what would be left of a human being after a drone attack or an all out military offense?

There is no military solution to this mess that we are stuck in at the moment. The Americans themselves have struck a deal with Al-Sadr in Iraq so how can they tell us that we can’t negotiate with so called ‘Talibans’ in our northern areas?

Sadly every time we strike a deal the Americans and their puppy Karzai starts barking about violence from across the border. I have lost hope in everyone other than Allah and can only pray to Him to show us the right path and give us the strength and wisdom to pass through these horrific times.

I am really horrified by images on TV. The images on GEO where Crow were eating the parts of victims of bomb blast are so horrific that I am still in a state of shock… I have never seen anything like this before and don’t want to see again..

The scene was so cruel and brutal, Uniformed men standing near crime scene and Crows fighting for pieces of dead meat. Argg.. Another chill down the spine…. God save pakistan

another thing I would like to add is that change of face does not mean a change of system. the social, economic and political trends unleashed in last 9 years will not be and can not be reversed.

I see people chanting GO ZARDARI GO very soon…

I have few glimpses of Zia’s period from my childhood, if i compare his rule with mushy’s rule, mushy’s was better. I guess it is useless to talk about illegal or legal dictatorship at the moment. WE KNOW RIGHT IS RIGHT n WRONG IS WRONG, BUT WHATS NEXT???

He was a dictator who made billions of $$$ killing hundreds of innocent civilians. Is there any accountability of all the aid the army received during his tenure? even the US has no trail of where this money got spent?

If we BELIEVE in democracy we need to back leaders who are elected officials…..and let them continue their complete term to judge their performances…relying on dictators will get us no where.
