Parachinar weeps again

2 years ago

by Ammar in My thoughts, Pakistan, People

As the Pakistan military strengthens its position in Swat and Waziristan, the Kurram agency is in the spotlight once again. Fighting has erupted and reportedly, the Taliban fleeing from Waziristan and Swat are wrecking havoc in Parachinar. They are fuelling sectarian tensions and finding refuge as locals from different sectarian groups, particularly the Shi’ites, are targeted.

Amidst fierce clashes that left 33 dead and over 65 injured in a single day, the residents of Parachinar have renewed their call for a military operation. A call they have been issuing for almost 28 months now. The government, the previous and the present, seem to pay no heed to this despearate appeal. (more…)

The Shameless Ambassador to the United States!

We recently appointed a Pakistani ‘neocon’ as our ambassador to the United States of America, Mr. Hussain Haqqani. After the recent attack on Pakistani forces, THIS is what our shameless ambassador has to say about the incident:

Despite the “unacceptable” incident, Pakistan will continue to fight extremists within its own borders.

“We will continue to cooperate with our partners while trying to get to the bottom of this particular incident and to make sure that no such incidents take place in the future.”

Sigh! He is more of an American than a Pakistani. Are we left with any other words to condemn his remarks? I might find some, but I am in no mood to write any!

US ‘cowardly’ attack and attempt to occupy Pakistani territory!

The night between the tenth and eleventh of June 2008 witnessed a ‘cowardly’ attack from the coalition forces based in Afghanistan that has left at least 13 Pakistani soldiers martyred, including a Major, and what is frightful is the fact that more than 50 soldiers are still missing. The missile attack was possibly launched using unmanned drones followed by a ground attack by Afghan forces.

This is what happens when you bend without limits. This is what happens when you say YES to everything they say. This huge military loss is a saddening incidence, which clearly shows the downright disrespect of Pakistani sovereignty by the United States and its coalition forces. (more…)
