Three Cheers for Qudratullah Bhai. Hip Hip Hurrah. He was our Senior at Cadet College Razmak and a very down-to-earth person. May Allah guide us, all tribesmen (rather all Pakistanis), towards the road to success i.,e. Education. Aameen. I think Leon Pannetta and David Patraeus should be informed about this so that they may know that a "Billion dollar investment in education" in Waziristan can make it SAFER than the much trumpeted Would-be Military Operation that will surely cost Multiple Billions. Is somebody reading this? Anybody?
