BAN PAK

I suggest US not to fund PAK as their money in indirectly going their defence & earned PAK money is funding terrorist parties.

What PAK has achieved businesswise in international level?

Contribution of PAK in Word Technology?

Contribution (positive) of PAK to Human being?

PAK is showing help to US in Afgan border? Is it reason US is backing PAK?....PAK

We have to BAN PAK if all feel that they are in worong direction.

Yes, this is right. a majority of Pakistanis think it's US war. the US missile attacks eimply aggravate this impression.

Don't Take Pashtuns as objects in all this.

I as a Pashtun want to inform your esteemed news paper that some Pakistanis that have expressed their views in this article are not Pashtuns. They rather belong to the dominent Punjabi-Muhajir ruling classes who have created this whole mess are using the terrorist networks as money-making enterprise to extort as much from the West as they can, to use their Islamist proxies as a way to gain an upperhand in Afghanistan and Kashmir, and to save their own skin and lay the balme on Pashtuns and use Pashtuns as sacrificial lambs.

I in particular condemn the statement by Irfan Siddiqi, which expresses his Muhajir-ethnist biase against Pashtuns.

Al-Qaueda, Taleban, and other networks are the assets of Punjab dominated Pakistan Army and its Punjabi-Muhajir ruling classes.
