Policy failure

Letter May 28, 2013
It's an absolute policy failure to have spent billions on security and yet human lives aren't secure.

ADELAIDE: A Shia lawyer practising at the Sindh High Court and his two sons were shot dead in Karachi on May 28. This tragic incident indicates the sad state of affairs our country is currently embroiled in. This is an absolute failure of state policy, to have spent billions on security and this is what the end game is. How do those responsible for ensuring the security of our children justify holding the jobs they have?
