Islam, Marathons and Choice I have also seen the documentary about Kyrgyzstan on Public Television. The tradition that you mentioned there is not limited to Muslims in the region. This is common to all the people in that region. Please do not single out Islam in this case.

Unfit For Command Yasmeen, you sumed it very nicely. I fail to understand why Pakistani people are willing to live with this kind of behaviour. Is there any hope for the nation? I can not wait to see this guy go away.

Rape of another Kind These remarks by Gen are extremely arrogant and insulting to all the Pakistani people.
What else can you expect from these Generals, they have raped the constitution of the country, they have raped the whole country and now they are saying they are the Chowkidar of this country. My foot. People of Pakistan should send these guys to hell.

Will Persecuting Hashmi Help? Critisizing army in Pakistan seems to be a bigger crime than murder and rape. Mr. Javed had been charged with murder and rape but never investigated for these crimes. The message the ruling party has always sent it that you can be the scum of the earth, but it is ok as long as you are with us. And army has been a ruling party for a long time. Musharraf is no exception. Remember what happended in Ayub and Zia time.
