May be that is why….

and that is reason they dislike Army equally as they do to Talibans.

People relying on information given by Army in this programem should not forget general mentality of Army men. They, even in their normal life are GaporRa (lambi lambi chorRtay hein) beos this is their mindset. they call it morale boosting trough fabricated stories and infact it is equivalent to living in fool’s paradise in most cases.

Under the constraints, a GREAT job done. Our public needs to know the truth about the ongoing military operations. This is the first step towards that. Unless independent media persons like yourself continue to bring reports from the battle ground itself, the public will choose to believe whatever they want.

Our military is fighting for Pakistan – the militants need to be cleared out, and no one else can do it, given the extreme nature of the situation. What you have done, and hopefully others will be allowed to do, is bring a more truthful picture to the forefront which will help the public to support the Armed Forces of their country.

Thank you.

p.s. Democracy made a valid point about the lack of any protective jacket/helmet on you body.

can we get the free version uploaded please…this program deserves a much wider audience. thanks.

But lets not let our favorite journalist off the hook for not wearing protective gear in a war zone! Thats a bit to cavelier for me….and what about the camera man who is probably a bigger target as his lens is so visible.

kashif abbassi is back and so are you! Continuing with your singular purpose.

This was excellent journalism by Kashif. Am so glad he is not adding to the media circus in the IDP camps but helping us understand all issues and facets of this crisis.
