    Thanks for the visit Talat. Though there was not much of insight I could find in this program. However, our statesman president, Mr Musharraf, has glamourized and sensationalized these areas in such a way that he left us with no backtrack strategy. At the same time, I wonder, how the developed world buy these kind of statements where these areas are projected as next launching pad for any kind of potential attacks on continental US. To me I think this is the biggest farce being played with the simple people of the world in the name of combating terrorism.

    The political freedoms, the privacy and other basic human rights that establishes a civilized society are being suppressed. World is at the verge of huge food crises and the rich nations in the world are spending their energies and resources in tackling with the delusional figures that has mesmerised the imaginations of spy networks around the world.

    Enough with this drum beating now. Is there somebody with sane mental health can think that these people who are having a life style scarcely above normadic ages, are capable of threatening the world peace? If US couldn’t be threatened in the presence of Soviet Inter Continental Ballisitic Missiles, how these people can do something to such a powerful nation in the world. And I believe 95% wouldn’t be having a passport, and the rest if the do, wouldn’t have a US visa to go there. This is a landlock region and it is equally hard to believe that these people can smuggle weapons to the so called ’sleeper-cells’ abroad.

    I can only pray for the world leadership which is increasingly getting void of leadership skills.

    I just cant resist reposting this video. No doubt we are a failed state. It is our “Kartoot” that we have reached here

    Chairman Federal Board of Revenue Pakistan, Abdullah Yusuf Dancing to a song’s tune in a private party held in Army House Islamabad which is paid by the Poor Tax Payers Money… Musharaff, Shaukat Aziz and other Blood Sucking Mosquitoes are also present along with their wives. In the end Musharaff also starts to dance but the camera is moved away

    Is this your Islamic Republic of Pakistan … !?

    I really wish we can bring a CHANGE in our country….. We are giving full blown protocol to a Cheap Actor like Imran Hashmi BUT have no time for our own people…………………………………..I am surprised that no one in the media had the courage to take up this issue.

    The army still supports mush. The state of Pakistan is for the army and nothing else. Majority of people are in extreme starvation and helplessness. Militancy ,once nurtured by the agencies, is on a rampage. Operations in two provinces and the rulers are roistering, as if all is well.

    It was a good program by Talat, the only thing lacking is that he should have included some local perspective bu talking with people in the area.

    It is also interesting that a program on such a crucial topic only yields 7 responses so far, looks like most people on this site mostly believe in posts where they can bash their favorite political opponents :)
