Indians should wake up and smell the coffee...

Posted: Jul 10, 2007 Tue 06:15 am     Views: 109   


I am in Islamabad... in my home, more or less 3 kilometres away from the Lal Masjid battle and the only disturbance of peace I am feeling is from the workers double paning the windows of my house...

Granted that these people in the mosque were Pakistan Army’s own old operatives from the Afghan War and the "Jehad" against communism... but seriously what is it that has happened?

A bunch of fundos got up... and tried to bite the hand that fed them... the hand that fed them has now strangled them.

Giving us moralistic lectures of "as you sow, so shall you reap" is ridiculous... if anything Pakistan Army and ISI has demonstrated that it can create monsters and then kill them with relative ease. If anything... the events of last one week have shown that Islamic fundamentalists have no sympathy from general public... and that the spectre of talibanisation of Pakistan and the great forces of Islamic revolution and the jehadi monster about eat Pakistan up was PAPER THREAT.

Ayaz Amir and Imran Khan were right in so much when they said that there is no talibanisation possible in Pakistani society...and Pakistan Army is the valve that controls the jehadi flow so to speak.
