The establishment should now realise that people are not foolish.
KARACHI: When will we in Pakistan stop treating the terrorists and religious militants as strategic assets and see them for the monsters that they are, killing thousands of Pakistani civilians and soldiers? Those in the establishment who harbour such views should now realise that people are not foolish and they know what is going on. The media, too, should take its head out of the sand and wake up to this reality and carry out its responsibility of keeping the public informed of the truth. We need to stop living in denial.
