		<description>&lt;b&gt;@rakesh mehta&lt;/b&gt;: Rakesh, i would like to second you. I am a big advocate of Indian Pakistani Friendship too. We shouldn&#039;t let a handful of extremist pakistanis and indians ruin our relationship. Secondly the people of both the nations need to rise up and put a big big danda into the butts of their harami leaders. They should realize now who is their true friend and who is harming them.</description>

		<description>My Good people of Pakistan, let us all be pragmatic and take things into perspective, Our Beautiful Soldiers of the Pakistan Army and Our beautiful Militia in all the provinces deems fit worthy of praise, for the simple reason, the soldiers in all these wars are not responsible, they are all paid low salaries and they are all entwined in being able to maintain their daily livliehood they have no inkling to the true reality, the fingers should be pointed to the real culprits and they too should be taken to task.

Now the only thing which can separate all of us is the fact of the manifest truth, and that ladies and gentlemen is our ALLAH. Now for those creatures who think that they are not being watched are truly deluded, for ALLAH knows what you whisper to your ownself, He knows what Man conceals in His breasts, there is no escape from the questioning of ALLAH on a day which will turn the children&#039;s hair hoary headed.

What is transpiring in Our beloved country is a metaphysical phase in putting everything in persepctive to meet the challenges of the 21st century. The old Evil Old men who are withering away will in a while know nothing after having known, Indeed ALLAH is the All Mighty and to HIM we turn in Repentance and seek for HIS Mercy. With certainty of sight those who beleive should know that you will all be alive after your death and it is then what one will see is not magic but the true reality. The Angels will ask you that &quot;Is this not what you see the truth?&quot;. But it will be a hard day for the wicked ones, for they will be thrown into the blazing fire to burn therein disgraced and humilitated, this is indeed the truth, and for those who deny this should come to know by what overturning they will be overturned.

We, the citizens of Pakistan will gain victory over the wicked ones, for with certainty ALLAH protects those creatures who Bow down to Him and beg for HIS Mercy. Ladies and Gentlemen do not mind the sermon, but I fail to understand why is is so difficult for the people of Pakistan to stand up and continue to demand Justice for all, The evil Ones are still laughing, for they mock Pakistan&#039;s Judicial system, they think that they will be able to outrun the cases by handing out bribes for their salvation, indeed they are deluded for ALLAH watches all of his Creatures vey closely, and Inshallah Pakistan Our Great Nation will welcome Good people to our country to help us build up our nation as it was supposed to be when our Quaid gave us Muslims a country to dwell in.

Truly Ladies and Gentlemen this is the only home we have, can we all be responsible people for once and protect the future lives of our children!</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt;@Hassan Khan&lt;/b&gt;:
&lt;blockquote&gt;I don’t mean to be rude,but you live in the shelter of protection provided by the Pakistani Millitary. How many sons have you given up?or How many Bullets have you taken? Every time Indians accelerate forces we all gather under the banner of “Pak Army Zindabad”, who did the rescue operations in 2005 earthquake. Its a shame that people like you want to defame the military just out of some misplaced sense of self righteousness. On top of that your evidence from 1953!!!&lt;/blockquote&gt; Well brother until then army had nothing to do and what if they helped it was their duty becoz they were just sitting and eating everything and remember who got the award jummat u dawah a terrorist party if you talk about army  army is paid by govt and we can use them any where we want donot forget in musharaf regim NAB was asked to close many cases against Army personnels to  save army from the bad impression. they do what ever and when ever they want is becoz they have bullets if they want to impose their ideas then come and sit and talk with people not with bullets if they use bullets then i am proud of my tribles who said fighting against Kufr and its allies is jihad and this Kalshnikov is our sword and we will not surrender out swords until Army is out of tribes they never said we will capture pakistan but now i am not sure we can make a peace deal with them. they have already faced a big lose of lives of children and women in pakistan air force bombing. and donot forget what happen to the Air chief who denied to bomb tribles and his plane crashed. actually we all fighting for the happiness of americans they place their boot on our face and twist it and we start obeying them. shame on us shame. the tribles were our defenders but we made them our enemy. we say they attack mosques see who was the first to attack mosque LAL MAsjid our army MEN went with boots inside mosque shame on them then they allowed private armies like blackwaters shame on them who ask help protect pakistan it mean they are cowards and cannot protect pakistan. shame shame shame.
So this is the reality we have to stop all there institutions bureaucracy politicians and Army but all of them are relatives with each others all three institutions have agents of America who are working openly to support their interests. our army is paid 10 million dollars per month to fight rather to kill pushtoon children women and bomb them with fighter jets. shame on you its been many months still army is in swat becoz most of the people wanted sharia. so they are not leaving the place becoz they know if they come out common people will demand sharia again. and it wud be a shame for them. it was done only becoz of America not to support any sharia. never mind the world will see sharia again and Muhammad pbuh has told us. anyways this is the topic never ending but read Quran and hadith i am university graduate worked in ngos but when i started to find truth i found all that what i said here.</description>

		<description>Well Its rare that I comment on any article as it mostly ends into a futile conversation which i see here. I am still compelled to write though cos the debate clearly depicts that we all love Pakistan. The only point is that we are all confused with the information/disinformation we get. Another thing we lack is our research on history and evidence and understanding our geopolitical situation and the complexities of our societal structure.

The ppl of my nation and some our indian neighbours have highlighted some very good minds showing rationality in what they say but the point is that we all know the problems but dont know either its roots and the solution to it. And its very easy that the politicians be it religious our liberal or the army, they always blame one another for all the mishaps as is said that success has many fathers while failure has none. To add to it, our civilians being affiliated with any of it start taking sides.

What I view from an ordinary man is that as a society we have good ppl and bad ppl, and since all these institutions or parties are a part of it, they are also bound to possess the same characteristics and so do the leaders of the world. As in urdu we say &#039;Jaisi quam waisay sarbarah&#039;. Second thing is that, being humans, we are imperfect and are bound to err. So we cannot assume that our leaders will never make a mistake though their mistake would be costlier than the ordinary citizen as history proves. So a sweeping statement to any one party or institution is wrong.

The problem arises that when one, being affiliated with any party or institution, starts endorsing a wrong step or a mistake of the other just to prove their loyalty to that party or institution. A wrong is a wrong whoever does it. We should be true to ourselves the least.

Secondly, our problem is ignorance. We don&#039;t even know what is happening outside our own worlds which is just restricted to our career, families and friends in reality. So, understanding the complexities of the poor and deprived of our nation is beyond comprehension. Our opinions are based on what the anchors and talk shows which are not altogether distorted but not accurate either. Hence, a solution of a problem without comprehension gives rise to another problem. We are all fighting in some way for the survival of our nation which is good but why? We don&#039;t even know why it was born in the 1st place. Our politicians and intellectuals to date are disputing the ideology or our country. Is it just for a peace of land? If it is then I would say it is worthless. Why did our ancestors make huge sacrifices of their lives and wealth and took the troubles of such mass migration? It should be for the ideology and that can only be found out by reading about the writings of Quaid-e-Azam, Allama Iqbal, Agha Khan and Chaudhri Rehmat Ali who were key personalities to the formation of Pakistan.

Another issue which perturbs me is the growing intolerance in our society and the world and as a result of this, we all have adopted the approach that whoever doesn&#039;t agree with the other is met with consequences be it verbal abuse, physical and sometimes with death. This is beyond the dignity of a human being. However, this doesn&#039;t relinquish the right to self defense. So, the frequent overstepping and tug of war among political parties and the army is a result of this as everyone thinks that the other is stupid and we know the job better. And the undue loyalty to the party/institution just makes it worse.

As for the external factors, every nation has some vested interest, be they moral or immoral. They do things which may be good for their nation but not necessarily ours. In this case the hero for one is the villain for the other. The issue arises when some even don&#039;t think even of their own nation as they have their own personal interest. This has been proven in our case, and for India, USA, Israel and Middle East to name a few. So, the problem lies with the selection process across the board. The 1st and foremost quality of a leader is that he should be generous and not selfish. If this quality isn&#039;t there, then he is bound to disappoint us in times of test. So, who is it to blame? Us? 

Freedom demands responsibility, taking ownership of our actions. Our nations are not suffering because of our leaders only but each and every individual of our society. I m not for MQM, but I give due credit for what Mustafa Kamal has done for the city of Karachi. It may not be perfect or upto the mark, but atleast he made an effort and did his share well.  and so did his team. These were the same ppl who never performed with other nazims.

I used to hate army but my trip to Balakot and setting up a tent village there, changed my perspective and now I no longer hate them. That doesn&#039;t mean that I love them either:). It was due to their effort that such calamity was handled well despite the fact that some ppl there (highlighted by media) were thankless and no matter what was done for them, they never acknowledged or appreciated it. I have had personal experience so I can safely claim that i know this for sure. 

One thing is to remember that your freedom is associated with your freedom. You are nobody if you don&#039;t have a nation. A nation is nothing if it doesn&#039;t have an ideology. And ideology is a benchmark for differentiating between the heros and villains not on personal biases.</description>

<p>I used to hate army but my trip to Balakot and setting up a tent village there, changed my perspective and now I no longer hate them. That doesn&#8217;t mean that I love them either:). It was due to their effort that such calamity was handled well despite the fact that some ppl there (highlighted by media) were thankless and no matter what was done for them, they never acknowledged or appreciated it. I have had personal experience so I can safely claim that i know this for sure. </p>
<p>One thing is to remember that your freedom is associated with your freedom. You are nobody if you don&#8217;t have a nation. A nation is nothing if it doesn&#8217;t have an ideology. And ideology is a benchmark for differentiating between the heros and villains not on personal biases.</p>
