Salam, I think it's about time the people of Pakistan demand a strong leadership instead of these half wits currently occupying the government and the opposition. We need at this moment a strong government even if it means not a democratic one. The nation is standing at a break point where none of the current political parties have the capacity to deal with. Out of the current history the only leader worth mentioning is Musharraf who at his peak and time commanded authority , Ran a pretty good government for 6 years though at the end due to a few mistakes had to resign.
As for the terrorism issue i do not understand how our people come up with the following statements "these men cant be Muslims" "no pakistani is capable of doing it" when in reality if you walk around or talk to people, You can see it spreading all around you. The excuses you see on the media nowadays makes you wonder if finding reason for a terrorist attack is their job. Coming back to the terrorism issue. how do you tackle this? Take a country like Saudi Arabia for example which had a huge problem with extremism even in it's armed forces and officials were involved. Yet they plucked them out of the society ruthlessly, Shot them, arrested them, If you had any connection with certain groups or philosophy the police had the right to take you in for interrogation. I understand a lot of people would come back with an argument of it being a police state. My answer is ask the ordinary Pakistani, What is more important to them? Democracy? Judges? I'm sure many would talk about Security, Food, Economy. Many people like me would rather live under marshal law if it meant someone could provide us these. Everyone understands our politicians are not mature enough to be in office.
