Get them and hit them hard. This is the language they understand.
Thank to Musharraf who took courage and risked his life and popularity to neutralize these mullahs in 2007.

These Mullahs supported by those despotic hypocrites who were against the creation of Pakistan and they were with congress party. What they are doing in Pakistan is to damage Pakistan and weaken its foundations. They were the ones who were calling Qaid-e-Azam Mohammed Ali Jinnah as infidel. These hypocrites would never pay tribute to the great Muslim Leader.
They are the terrorists and they should be punished.

Isn't May 3rd too far ... the sooner we get rid of these people the better .. when people don't get justice on time it creates anarchy in the society .. Its been three years and these people are roaming around.
If people working in Govt and on government jobs are lazy to do their job on time every one will suffer further
