Radical Islamism & Jihad Pakistani surrender to Taliban is not justified by ‘quick justice’
Increasingly, Mr Zardari resembles a man with a begging bowl in one hand, and a gun in the other pointed at his own head. The reality is that for decades, Pakistan has sacrificed the bulk of its resources to support a vast defence apparatus it could ill afford. The extremist menace that threatens to destroy Pakistan was largely a creation of its own military establishment. And now that Pakistanis need the Army to defend them, they find it is not up to the task. Pakistan needs to face up to the fact that a lack of money is not the problem. What it really needs is the political will to fight the monster confronting the country today. Despite the concern of millions of Pakistanis, a vocal section of the establishment and the media are either in denial, or are cheering on the militants. Some have argued that the deal signed recently in Swat is actually good for the people. -- Irfan Husain 2 Comments More.. http://www.newageislam.com/NewAgeIslamArticleDetail.aspx?ArticleID=1211 Current affairs Resolving Kashmir: Kasuri’s revelations Now that Kasuri and Coll have spilt the beans, the Indian government should organise an education campaign, especially among US think tanks, that a framework for a Kashmiri settlement already exists. And as US president Barack Obama pointed out, Pakistan does not have to worry about any threat from its eastern border; its threats are from within. But the Pakistani army's leadership is yet to be convinced that Taliban is a threat and not an asset and Khan was a proliferator. -- K Subrahmanyam 1 Comments More. http://www.newageislam.com/NewAgeIslamArticleDetail.aspx?ArticleID=1212 Islamic World News How Britain's mosques foster extremism Sectarian, conservative leadership is driving confused young Muslims into the arms of radicals Ed Husain on How Britain's mosques foster extremism Islamic group slams 'out of touch' imams for causing drift towards extremism Is The Antichrist Alive?
