It is now clear that LeJ is officially Pakistan's number one enemy (above all other internal and external threats).

If we have any dignity left, we must demand diversion of all resources in fighting this threat.

The courts must declare it a crime to sympathise in anyway with LeJ or Taliban. Any one who calls them 'brothers' or 'our own' must get a reprimand and should be forced to attend rehabilitation classes.
