@Naseer: No. Sirat ullmustaqeem ! Rest assured.
It is now clear that LeJ is officially Pakistan's number one enemy (above all other internal and external threats).
If we have any dignity left, we must demand diversion of all resources in fighting this threat.
The courts must declare it a crime to sympathise in anyway with LeJ or Taliban. Any one who calls them 'brothers' or 'our own' must get a reprimand and should be forced to attend rehabilitation classes.
Its not ethnic killing. Its sectarian killing. The day this country's people will beging to recognise patterns and statistics of the daily killings, which are all deplored equally, this country may become a better place. untill tghen, no hope.
@Nadir: "We must investigate RAW-CIA-Mossad involvement, yeh musalmaan nahi ho saktai"
Wake up Nadir. These killer are Muslims and probably more practicing than us. They have their own twisted version of Islam.
@Tribune False Reporter
Its sectarian killings, and SSP-LEJ own it. Zia's lost generations has its own identity issues but rest of the world are not idiots
We must investigate RAW-CIA-Mossad involvement, yeh musalmaan nahi ho saktai
ehasan this geo political tribes been living in balochistan for centuries. baloch, pushtons and hazaras are living in three countries, which is pakistan, iran and afghanistan.the regions has no problem with any of these tribes but its brain less proxy money hungry terrorists which are trying to destroy the government rule and structure. sure hazaras are less in numbers but they are back bone of balochistan. and these brain less terrorists knows that. and you should know that too.
Ehsan i think you are ignorant about the balochistan, i appreciate that you are against target killing but just for your knowldge, half of Baloch living in iran and thats thier land, and small portion of baloch living in Afghanistan, majority of pushtons living in Afghanistan and thats thier land, and the rest living in balchistan and peshawar and karachi. so as hazaras living in afghanistan and quetta. when we talk baloch, pushton and hazaras, it means we talk about locals not foriegners.
@Tribune False Reporter: You are very right Bro, I have doubts in my mind since ET call IOK as Indian Kashmir and Azad Kashmir as Pakistan Administered Kashmir ....
@ehsan. what about sunnis who migrated from afghanistan to Pakistan. aren't they burden on our land?? The heaviest burden on our land is Malik Ishaq, Not these innocent Hazaras.
E.T report as always false by saying ""Shias travelling for religious purposes, have been targeted."" why again lying? People living in Hazara Town has to pass through spiny road if they have to come to city or return back to homes. It is regardless of sectarian purposes, its the ethnic persecution of Hazara People in Quetta... Lier Media baboons.
