KARACHI:
Pakistan Peoples Party’s (PPP) central leader and former provincial minister Syed Owais Muzaffar on Friday said some foreign elements were trying to sabotage the reconciliation process between the PPP and Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM).
He hoped that both the parties would foil this conspiracy by working together. In a statement issued on Friday, Owais said PPP condemned the murder of MQM workers and stood by the party and families of the victims in this time of grief.
He reiterated that the operation in Karachi was against criminals and not against any political party. “However, some foreign powers are busy trying to create chaos in the city through their nefarious tactics,” he said, adding that the Sindh government was serious in reviving peace in the city.
“The MQM’s reservations on the operation will be removed through dialogue,” he said, adding that both the parties had agreed to work together to resolve the issues of the people and law and order.

Those who try to set their neighbour's house on fire, meet the safe fate as Pakistan is facing today.
I think Pakistan should be sent to Mars to save them troubles from "foreign" elements. Oh no then they may blame earth people. Hmm.
When all else fails blame the boogeyman.
Punjab keeps its backyard clean and sends all of its thugs, police, rangers, extremists including lashkar (basically run by Punjabis) to create havoc in Karachi. Its disappointing how the most populous state of Pakistan has been so troublesome for rest of the 3 small provinces. That's why their should be 40 provinces and a presidential system of governance. Now government is being run by 11 thugs from Lahore.
