The topic sums it up they have been labeled a Mafia in the past and they are a reasonably strong political party from Sindh?
Altaf Hussain is a leader of the party that boasts to have the voter confidence of the city of Karachi which holds a lot of power however it seems to always show weakness everytime any major violent incedent takes place in Karachi, in almost every turn of events that I have observed in our countries political history I have noticed that MQM is a party that has coalitioned with almost all ideologies that have come to power. Their aims have not been very clear in practical life however in every election they have only moved from strength to strength, in the media lite they have come out as a strong party against the "Talibanisation" that has gripped our country, however in my eyes I have not been able to see a clear mind set of the MQM.
MQM has condemned all kinds of violence yet they are a party that is practically shrouded by it, historically as well as presently they have been seen openly using weaponry and opening fire on events such as the 12th of May, I must also add that the PPP are no innocent bystanders either, but carrying on to today the way that they have lashed out at the police report on the violence in Karachi first threatening destabalisation and telling people the police plans operations like 1992, (Police conspiring to launch 92-like operation: MQM - GEO.tv) they have clearly threatened their own coalition partner by saying that they will take "extreme steps", is something that should be put to them and they need to be questioned on their ideology that seems to shift in favour of every government that comes to power. When it is the Taliban MQM seems to be some sort of a very good party that is in favour of enlightened moderation and is a party that people should give power too yet they have too many skeletons in their closet. I won't talk of wayward things any further but actually simply ask people to add their opinion on where the MQM stands because it is something that surpasses me. I will label all the things that I like about MQM followed by what I dislike with a thums up and a thumbs down
-the early days of the parties vision has to be apreciated his claims were true he only put the middle class to power he didn't distinguish between religious differences or class differences. He worked hard to gain his political name not piggy backing on oppurtunities that came about his ways in the late 80's and his stance against the PPP's open corruption. Then he didn't quit his work when his brother was arrested and shot
-the developement of Karachi in the past few years
-all the violence that came to Karachi along with the parties violence that was promoted by Altaf Hussain in 92
-the lack of accepting the blame when something goes wrong.
-the killing of his own main coalition members that helped him make the party.
-the increase in the rate of crime over the period of 20 years of being incharge
-allowing of all these transport land and many other rings that seem to run the city like a mafia.
-all terrorist like events of the 92 times they were terrible times. Getting cases dodged or dropped by later joining hands with the very same people that they went against and the reason why I sort of liked them in the very begining.
The thread is not a flaim bait if I had the power I would delete unnecesary posts but I don't so please back up arguements if you are against MQM or for them give reasoning reports and incedents that were recorded preferably links however try not to make them links to blogs because i think any wise guy can write a blog.
I would question and add my views every once so often I support PML(N) and if anyone else is in opposition to MQM please back you argeuments.
I would also request people for good youtube videos not heavily editied ones if they could add them.
Please do post but not so that this becomes a festivity of one liners taunting and jeering one another.
