Why did a Govt Dept sponsor a conference held by a private party?
Friday night, AKNTM issues press conference saying they condemn the incident and moved on to say that it was an act by Blackwater to conspire and get the Blasphemy acts and Ordinance XX of 1984 revoked. They tried to act as the victims while the families of >80 people weeped.
They organized a meeting in Sargodha yesterday where they called for "expelling Ahmedis" as a last measure and to remove them from "top posts" as the necessary measure. This "in the echelons of power" argument has long been used by fanatics to create public panic. Ahmedis are in the echelons of power for they are learned, educated and bright people unlike stupid mullahs most of whom won't be able to correctly write down a table of 2. Ahmedis have the highest literacy rate of any religious group not because they allegedly receive "foreign funds" as Mullahs like to say but because they don't waste money on funding terror groups and recognize the importance of education including educating girls.
