Dawn is very sub-servient to its masters - the white, corrupt, and scandalous press. Islamist is a person who believes in the spirit of Islam. I do too; but I am not one to force my views, what ever they are, on whoever they are. I give my opinion, and make suggestions. I also listen to others' opinions and any suggestions they have. We all make our own decisions. The rest is for Allah, the true Judge. Shame on Dawn!

I wasn't expecting a Pakistani Newspaper betraying those who supported Pakistan with their blood being called Islamists. Shame on you!!! I hope this was a genuine mistake..

The 'term' Islamist is derogatory. It literally refers to 'followers of Islam', while you're intending to refer to Muslim radicals ... or not? DAWN tows too much to western media these days to be considered a Pakistani newspaper.

How can a newspaper which was supposedly started to help the first Islamist movement in subcontinent use thewords Islamist and Nationalist as two seperate entities to describe the Muslims of same country. I sincerely hope tht u guys at DAWN havn,t totally lost the plot as yet.
