This ruling class (PPP, MQM , ANP) has no mercy to the people of karachi .We need Army operation , who clean this mess.
Pak Amry...please help karachi...send SGS commandos and kill all those hidding in hidden cells. we need seals type operation...within one night our great Pak Army commandos can do it
@Fareed, you've got it wrong buddy, the army is not following the politicians, it is the other way around....military corruption and money making in pakistan exceeds the politicians corruption every day of the week....how else do you explain real estate businesses, golf-courses, country clubs, fertilizer plants, bakeries, banks, money taken from the budget for bribing politicians, journalists and the like.....and during time of martial law approving bullet proof mercs and beamers for themselves....all paid for by us....corruption is far more prevalent and pervasive under the army....its just that they seem to be more pious and polished then politicians so 'appear' clearner
DON'T hand over these target killer scum (who themselves confess to killing scores of people) into police custody (on taxpayers' money, to add insult to injury) - they'll be conveniently released scotch-free by their influential, politically connected higher-ups. What is needed is to hand over these subhumans to a mob after they've confessed their crimes and let them be beaten to a pulp in public - it may not sound very civilized, but that seems the only way they'll realize what consequences that their actions deserve.
@Fareed - Who else helps the pple than Pakistan Army and when they complete the task (as they did in Swat) we throw all the filth on them for all the mess. That is pitty / shame for us as a nation
@Fareed: Your comments seem too naive. Don't we have the Rangers in Karachi for many years now? Aren't the Rangers part of the Army? but anyways, this killing is done by the hired guns of major political parties and every citizen of Karachi knows who these people are!
@Fareed: Army cant and shouldn't. Rangers are part of army, they are enjoying free comfortable lifes
Where is the Pakistan Army when we need them the most. Someone has to step and fix Karachi. Obviously the current political leadership is too busy making money and it seems the Army has followed suit. Sad but true.
