Yasir Qadeer | 14 years ago | Reply It is indeed sad to hear news like this. Clearly shows that violence is not only restricted to certain countries but it is fast becoming a global concept and the efforts to fight it must go global also.

Azeem | 14 years ago | Reply Ali:Too bad Qureshi wasn’t present at the funeral of any single ahmedi victim who died in recent terrorist attack in Lahore. Obviously he has his priorities and Ahmedis are not on that list. its not personal just politics.

Syed A. Mateen | 14 years ago | Reply I could not hold my tears when I heard the news that one of the brilliant Pakistani students of final year Ali Reza got killed in the recent massacre in Kyrgyzstan. Kyrgyzstan government cannot return the son to the parents but at least a letter of apology with compensation may make the Pakistani nation to think that Kyrgyzstan government do care for the loss of precious human life.
