@yasir irshad: Really? Taliban came into power because people were fed up with extortion, rape and theft in Afghanistan. That is why we read about punishments in stadiums and not because of some gladiatorial games.
i was at my friends home and firing broke out in the area. it went for 3-4 hours straight. it was so intense that i had to stay there for the night. having the police station very near to the location. they didn't came to stop this mayham. the point is that what is the police for. forget the taliban, forget the target killers. they didn't even come for something very visible , that was happening just under their nose, to safeguard our life. WHAT OR WHO IS STOPPING THEM? .
I saw when going home in the morning a police van at every point near the location.
we should welcome new bhatta khors in karachi... taliban...and should prepared to witness a war between old and new bhatta khors...
I am afraid that death toll in Karachi is bound to increase each passing day as Talibans in thousands have entered the city and police is no match against this deadly outfit and even army could not control them. Army should put its out-posts in sensitive areas with FC and police conducting its joint operations against them.
Shia killings must stop or they will retaliate themselves. Every day 8 to 10 Shias r killed, don't blame them if you see tit for tat killings.
Referendum on Taliban Zindabad! who cares about karachi killings, we will win anyway- Regards MQM
Really? Are there enough people left in Karachi to be killed?
Killings in Pakistan is the order of the day, very soon the number of killers shall exceed the normal population of Pakistan.
Where in the world is MQM? You have left the city that gives mandate tocyou always on the mercy of these killers? This is awful..
I recommend Governor and CM for Nobel peace prize.
Our rulers are not going to pay attention to Karachi unless anyone of Madona, Anglia Jolie, Clinton, Obama, Brown and the likes take notice.
and mqm wanted referendum..... they cant save jinnah's city..aur chaley referendum karaney
Liberal parties have the license to kill, only Taliban and other extremists should be eliminated- Courtesy Azaad Pakistani Media
same story, different day
They are only capturing the suspects and NOT the criminals. Despite of having solid proofs and videos etc.
Happy Malala day to Karachites too.
