The Hazaras have suffered greatly for the past few years from the murdeous attacks of LeJ /ASWJ. Now just a few days after the imposition of Governor Rule the security forces in Balochistan have carried out an operation in Mustung against Baloch insurgents. Is this that all the FC is going to do with its “new found” powers and freedom? Mustung also happens to be the base of Baluchistan’s LeJ. When are we going to see the FC finally remove its blinders and actively pursue the religious militants, the actual perpetrators of the Hazara massacres?

Excellent article. One is grateful that Mr Qadri’s protest march ended without loss of life. However, I for one cannot see any legitimate, legal or moral reason why our leaders have allowed him the right to sit in when choosing our caretaker PM or Election Commission. We are free people whose elected representatives have been entrusted to execute the above responsibilities. Mr Qadri is not our elected representative, by letting him sit in with them our leaders have submitted to extortion and bartered away a piece of our freedom.
