Pakistan Guilty
Sarfraz Naeemi was the moderate cleric killed by a suicide bomber in Pakistan Yesterday. The killer struck as he walked away from morning prayers, Naeemi had started to build a coalition of like minded clerics who spoke out against the Taliban and other terrorist groups in Pakistan, slowly the public are beginning to turn away from the crazy Mullah's and their twisted version of Islam. It has to be asked how this man could have been such a soft target, if Pakistan expect us to believe the shadowy SIS (the Pakistani security service) were not complicit in this murder, they have to purge it of Taliban sympathisers. Why was Naeemi not better protected if indeed he had any protection, after all it was obvious he was a target after condemning the strict version of the Koran preached by the militants, and the violence used to enforce it. The SIS created the Taliban, If Pakistan want to reclaim their country then its up to them to help destroy the elements bent on destroying it. President Zardari must not only talk tough he must be seen to be tough, he has tried the path of negotiation with the fanatic's and it blew up in his face with the Taliban making camp barely 100 miles from the Capital. Thanks to US pressure that surge by the terrorists has been contained and they have been pushed back and are on the run. The Government must share responsibility for Naeemi's death, they need to now make sure it was not in vain.

I think there's a huge support for the Taliban there. I'm not sure I entirely share your view that public opinion is turning against the Taliban. Not just yet anyway.
ReplyDeleteWhere there's ignorance and poor education, it's the perfect breeding ground for religious doctrination. Pakistan, especially rural Pakistan is fertile ground for this.
It's a matter of time before Pakistan implodes on itself. It let it's rural people down, didn't educate them. Now the Taliban is 'doing' that. Only to a different, more militant tune.
That support you speak of is ebbing away. The Taliban have alienated even their hard core support, with the amount of killings and punishment beatings amongst the population for supposed "crimes against Islam". Watch this space, more and more Towns and Villages will arm themselves against the militia.
ReplyDeleteWell, I hope your right. The Taliban are in my view public enemy number one. Their effect would be felt more so if they destabilise a country (which they are doing) so we have to be on gurad.
ReplyDeleteSelf righteousness makes me puke at the best of times - but have a look at this video (link below). Makes you want to join the US Air Force just for the opportunity to bomb the Taleban back to the 11th Century. Hold on, that's were they are anyway. Ok, 2nd Century.
