Most of the commentators seem to suggest that our military/army is not capable of fighting a few thousands thugs. How about this idea, lets dismantle the whole useless army which eats up most of the national budget and use that money saved for the development of KPK, FATA. and rest of the country.

Malang Jan | 10 years ago | Reply @Imtiaz @Qasim So are you guys saying that just because the forces of evil are strong militarily, we should give up our own values - and the constitution of this country - so that we can have peace! Just imagine if that had been the approach of all our heroes over the centuries, what would have happened! The world would be truly in the clutches of the forces of darkness! And what guarantees of peace, even then? And finally, if we are to give over our land to these forces of evil, why not just give it to the Americans, or Chinese, or Indians - at least there would then be some semblance of law and order, rather than anarchy!
