Order the movement of FIELD ARTILLERY pieces from eastern regiments takes time. There is always an ABCD of planning & execution. Our FIELD ARTILLERY has always been disgned for INDIAN THEATER i-e to bomb BANIYA NOT BUNER.TTP & GOP both were not fooled. The only people being fooled right now are the ARMY JAWANS & COMMON PEOPLE.
NIZAM-ADL was never meant to be implemented.How can GOP implement & give way to a parallel system which is just going to bring down so many politicians, generals & bureacrats because there is no room for 'acceptable crime' in ISLAM.
TTP terrorism in the name of ISLAM is the direct immoral reaction to generations of injustice & hypocrises glued in the present system. It will continue to breed more reactions, this is just a start. All about CAUSE & EFFECT. React to just the effect & ingnoring the causes is not going to bring any good. Just go to a GOVT hospital's maternity ward in LAHORE ( not talking about remote areas) and see for yourself how many babies are born on floors & how many women are sharing the same bed while PRINCE BILAWAL spends thousands of dollars per night on GOP expense
Talking about JINNAH & IQBAL ideals. HAH...they surely never dreamed of NROs, ZARDARIs, MIANs & MUSHIES. We are daily contibuting to the betrayal of JINNAH & IQBAL ideals by accepting the worst lot as leaders, accepting malpractices in businesses, bypassing merit by looking for 'sifarish', giving bribes & kickbacks as acceptable form of conduct. On top IQBAL never propagated 'beggary' as an ideal.
Totally agree with IMRAN KHAN that this will backfire. Anyone in for a bet? Reasons:
1. THE MOST IDIOT & CORRUPT GOP PEOPLE
2. IGNORING THE REALITIES & STARTING A MEDIA CAMPAIGN consiting of lies
3. NO LONG TERM PLAN FOR IDPs etc or how if the last TALIB is killed to start the rehab process.
Oh my god Zubair, when did i say that there are no other issues...i think i also have a very long ist of the issues we are facing and need to look into...but if i have a knife to my throat i would endavour to break the hand wielding it and then try to look further...TTP is the threat and problem number 1, deal with it first because if you fail to do so they will finish you off!
Not acting against TTP because we have failed elsewhere is no logic at all and since they are terrorists...it is not even an option for us not to act.
Regarding the Army movement, it was indeed something very well done and not planned 4 months in advanced like you have suggested as if to imply that it was planned not to let Nizam e Adal function...
Regarding the field artillery, we have a very capable and diverse Army...better than most in the world so do not assume things on your own about our artillery or Army...do some fact finding first.
We have the means to move Artillery quickly over many sort of obstacles, this was the first time we used it to pound TTP on a broad scale in the mountains of SWAT.
BTW Nizam e Adal and Shariah are just token terms being used to argue and provoke; our constitution is Islamic and there can be no un-Islamic law as per our constitution so we need to implement the constitution and for that we need to stabilize Pakistan and not let the likes of TTP claim the ownership of Islam, they should be the most hated persons by all Pakistanis because of what they do as opposed to what they claim when they want to give religious flavor to their atrocities!
BTW they have openly claimed many bombings and attacks as well
Regarding Jinnah and Iqbal, i do try to follow what they said and believed in...as a nation we are struggling but does it mean that you be so bitter as to lose hope and rebuke me for mentioning Jinnah and Iqbal as well?
Do not give in, that is the first step...history is full of countries and rulers facing a tough situation but eventually many nations learn from mistakes and recover as well and this is usually done when they have a burning passion to make their country a great one.
We need to have faith in ourselves and support what is right and personally contribute to what is needed to be done.
I say contribute open heartedly in the IDP relief operation, show sincerity and we shall turn it around.
If we work hard and persevere Allah will help us recover Inshallah!
I think people have had it with dictators and that is a plus, people are much more aware and that is a plus.
There are hundreds of problems facing us but does it mean we justify inaction on one front by citing difficulties on the other front.
Leave everything else alone...and give me yes or no answer...
...given how many people the TTP have bombed and butchered like animals in front of all and in well fabricated videos as well; if you have the power to fight them...would you fight or bend over?
Yes or No?
