When Rehman Malik used to say that Southern Punjab was a breeding place of Terrorists, many presently sitting in chair would retaliate and rebuff his assessment. Can somebody in the chair comment now?
Why a muslim sucide bomber would attack mosque and people in prayer. The authorites must give the name of the organisation behind these attacks like mussaad, CIA and RAW with the help of Afghanistan. Its clearly has no connection with muslim and islam.why pakistan govt has taken silence. Also we see when we are clise to dialogue with india on closed date rhey do tricks to deffer talks like making scandle on loc.
india has 1.3 billion problems every day. It doesn’t need one more. Pakistan better look into the mirror to identify its enemies.
India in fact never wants peace with Pakistan. They are totally drama nation and such dramas need lesson once n forever which they will get soon. Hindus have never accepted Pakistan n they never will nor will they come to an agreement on Kashmir ever. It only would be when there would b no other option left for them. They are a cheater nation with zero moral values.
