Let’s live for ourselves

Letter June 23, 2011
We have suffered enough and learnt many lessons in the name of jihad and service to Islam.

ISLAMABAD: This is in reference to M Saeed Khalid’s article titled “Beginning the endgame” ( June 22). We should have a well-protected barbed wire at our western border like the one the Indians made in Kashmir and elsewhere to make themselves and their army safe. Then we should comb the whole country to get rid of all illegal entries that are a source of trouble to us and involved in heinous crimes. We should stop illegal arms manufacturing, transportation and sale. We should not have to take any advice from outsiders. We have suffered enough and learnt many lessons in the name of jihad and service to Islam. If a country wants jihad, it should make training camps inside its own territory and Pakistan will have nothing to do with it. Let’s start living only for ourselves
