There can be no militas that do not accept and obey the State, Otherwise you do not have a “State”, only a collection of people who don’t obey the law of the State. So when you have some of this collection, these tribes, these milita who not only break the law in your Country, but carry their murder and terror to your neighbors, that is a situation that will not hold. Will not stand. You as a Nation must control your citizens. YOU are responsible for them and their actions. YOU must disband them or convince them through punishment that they must obey the laws not only of your Nation but obey the laws of God. Killing and Murder of citizens, women anc children, innocents is against God’s Laws, no matter which god you beieve in.

The U.S. has tried to stay out of your country except for advisors, but you continue to want to do nothing but talk and make deals with your mis-behaving citizens. You military is seemly unable to defeat these tribes. Call them what ever name you want. Your military and Intell. Services seem either to run, get captured, or sometimes seem to be working directly with those that you can’t control.

That is how it looks to the rest of the world.

If you think that the U.S. is just going to get tired and go home and that one by one the NATO forces will leave. Well, just keep on thinking that if you wish. But it is not going to happen. Especially the U.S. They have seen that with very few of their military killed and wounded that they could kill and pacify the factions and al Quata in Iraq, and no matter how many democrats in America cried surrender, they went on to victory. It cost more money than it did lives.

Is that what Pakistan is holding out for? More Money? If the U.S. or the E.U. gives you more money will you kick out the Arabs and pacify your warring tribes and leave the Afghan alone…?

I don’t think that is the answer. I think the answer is that you can not do anything about your tribes, that you can’t prevent them from killing whoever they please, where ever they please.

Well, that must change soon. Because the U.S. is not going to just allow your Nation to be a safe haven for those that murder and only live to die fighting against anyone who is not of them.

That is not Nationalism, that is terrorism and stupid at that.

Treating a part of your country as “Illaqa Ghair” has always been an enigma to my limited sense of nationhood. I do consider it a big mistake by our fathers; seems as if fathers’ sins are coming to haunt us.

Your are kind and generous and do forgive my harsh language targetting your person.

You seems unaware of real plans behind this so called war against terrorism. Do you think that they have cleaned whole Afghanistan from these Al Qaida or Talibans? If not then they should first clean Afghanistan and then think about Pakistan. If they have given responsibility to Pakistan Army then let them do their work.

Their urgency to attack inside Pakistan shows that their target is some thing else. Not Taliban or Al Qaida. Do you think that Indians, Israelis, Afghanis etc are sincere to Pakistan. They are trying to raise excuses so USA/NATO can proceed with Attack on Pakistan. Tajick Afghanis are not sincere with Pakistan since first day and this bloody chap “Karazi” is one of them. He don’t have even courage to come out of Kabul but threatening Pakistan. “Yeh Piddi aur Piddi ka shorba”. Pakistan is not a candy that any country will eat it in a minute. Pakistan if has survived in front of such a big country then it can survive in future also. It will remain a wish for our enemies only.

I tell you, I visited these FATA areas many times and never found any problem from their side. Taliban and FATA are entirely different things. Taliban is mostly present in Int’l Media instead of in FATA.

Taliban believe that they are equal to the state, and I have been to all of seven agencies in the last couple of months, and I can tell you that their is no government there, and in those agencies our Pakistani government is not equal to the Taliban “government”, and it’s also the fault of ours, as we always considered the area “Ilaqa Ghair”.
