Regret to advise that targeting of Shias will not and cannot stop in Pakistan.
Reason is simple. Before we can stop a crime, we have to identify the criminal. It is normal for people point finger at a suspect and for him to deny it. In Pakistan it is the other way round.
TTP claim from the roof top that they did it, (Recent Quetta bombings were claimed by Lashkar Jhangvi – one of the allies of the TTP)) but a section of society doesn’t believe it. JI Leader Munawwar Hassan refuses to believe it, Taliban Khan of PTI only condemns the act but is either afraid to name Taliban or is a secret sympathiser of their cause. Many members of this august forum continue to believe that it is somebody else; CIA, RAW, BLackwater, ISI or even Jinns but not theTaliban!
In my comments I can quote our national poet:
FITRAT afraad say aghmaz bhi kar leti hai KABHI karti nahi millat kay gunahun ko maaf. (Allama Iqbal)
It means nature can overlook individual crimes but not crimes of the nation. Army soldiers come from the same society and harbour similar prejudices. Therefore as long as Pakistanis continue to live in such state of denial; stopping such activities is not possible. Perhaps that is what a specific section of the society wants.
