Sayma | 12 years ago | Reply Karachi is once again at fire and we must learn that Renunciation of violence and peaceful coexistence is not a luxury; it is the dire need of the hour, because there can be no end to revenge killings. Not only should the ANP and MQM sit together and sort out the real problems, they need to devise a mechanism to prevent tit-for-tat targeted killings. They should take into account the fact that this battle for turf has the potential of throwing the entire country into disarray. The two parties need to rise above their partisan considerations and let justice take its course, so that those guilty of creating the mayhem could be duly punished. Without this, targeted killings cannot be tackled. Both the parties must accept the suggestions of PPP as it is the senior coalition partner and must accept the peaceful solution by federal government. MQM must realize that Pakistan can ill afford to allow violence to engulf the metropolis once again at a time when the energies of the leadership should be focused on rescue and relief activities in the biggest natural disaster to hit the country. Both MQM and ANMP should give precedence to national interests over their parochial political ones.

There is no value of human lives in Pakistan whereas in the West the humans as well as animals have values and people and the governments in the West do care about the humans and animals.

This is one of the reason's that any one who get a chance to save his life goes to the West and try not to come back again.

It is a continues process of brain drain.

It seems that Taliban's and Mullahs are going to rule Pakistan in very near future, as the law enforcement personnel cannot cope up with the situation and want to save their own lives.

It is a sad story of Quaid-e-Azam's Pakistan but what I have said is truth, in view of the ongoing law and order situation in the country.

May Al-Mighty Allah have mercy on us. Aameen.
