Few days after the cold blooded murder of the former Punjab governor, there was a massive rally in Karachi in support of the murderer. Is there any more proof required on how brainwashed people are?.

Indeed, Mr. Dotani has a valid point here. Afghanistan cannot be compared with Somalia in any context.

Why is it Irfan Hussain so pessimistic? There must be something solid and good in Pakistan! So be cheerful and don’t around saying, ” Sky is falling, sky is falling and dooms day is here..”

“Today, if you speak to a student or a cleric about Jinnah’s vision for Pakistan, he simply won’t believe that the founder of Pakistan was a deeply secular person.” (Irfan Husain)

In fact Jinnah left Congress partly because Gandhi was too religious for Jinnah’s taste for a secular political party.

Your knowledge of Afghanistan seems to be flawed. Comparing today’s Afghanistan with Somalia is misleading. Afghanistan is a full-fledged state with its institutions (political, security, educational, economic, etc) getting stronger by every passing day. Afghanistan has a strong central authority, while Somalia, on the other hand, is a lawless territory with not a single functional state institution.

I thought the article was excellent until the last three paragraphs. It is possible for Pakistanis to organize a just and tolerant society and goverment whether it is secular or islamic. The need of the hour is to act against criminals- no excuses.
