Situation in South waziristan/fata by Hamid Meer

[SecularHumanist]

Its does not matter what i believe or for that matter you believe. What matters is that kid and many like him all over Pakistan are loosing legs/arms, their lives and much more and in the name of what the "collateral damage".

Yes that is painful, but there is no other way around that. This is the price the country is paying for mistakes of the past. Innocent people will continue to be killed by cancer of Taliban, whether the Army sits back or attacks. But if the Army permanently gets rid of this cancer, innocent people will never have to worry about living in fear, and this country will emerge.

What we call 'collateral damage' is the limitations in power and precision of our technology. Lets just imagine for a second that the Pakistan Army had perfect weapons--weapons with which the Pakistan Army could impair or kill a person, group, at any distance, without harming the innocent civilians. How would Pakistan use this technology? To destroy the Taliban and not hurt civilians right?

Now lets imagine the same technology is given to the Taliban and Al-Qaeda. What would they do with it? I think it is pretty obvious that they would use this technology very differently. Now do you see the problem with saying that morally, the Pakistan Army is equivalent to the Taliban? This is what Imran Khan tries to do and fails in his argument.

all he is doing was putting an open challenge to anymore who can prove him otherwise and in return he will leave journalism for good. That remains to be seen yet.

No one can prove him wrong because there always be people in teh effected area who would support Mir's arguement.

Our media (above all Geo and its anchors) put a negative spin to everything about Pakistan. In this case once the mission is successful, Mir will interview people effected and show the negative outcome of the operation, he will not show that the majority of people are in favour of this operation and that Pakistan sacrificed many young sons to save the majority of the population from the enemy within.

From day one this Mir guy play dirty game on media. He is terrorist lover. Specially after Lal Masjid operation, he played extremely dirty role and demoralized Pak army. Don't know why this bastard Hamid Mir love to play the role of
Mir Jafar.
