Recent terror attacks by pro-Taliban militants in pakistan are an attempt to fuel a sectarian chaos . After taking a beating in their strongholds in the country's northwest in a string of military offensives, al-Qaeda-linked militants were adding a religious colour to their activities to whip up sectarianism. Sectarianism that has deep roots in the country because thousands have been killed in sectarian violence by majority Sunni and minority Shia sects in the past two decades, they stoked it again. It has been seen that wherever there is vulnerable situation, Taliban use it as weapon to terrorize people.
Pakistan is going through transformation. This government big time success has been to be finally successful in mobilizing people against jihadis who have dominated since the beginning of soviet war in 1979. west realizes that there is chaotic situation in the country when they see suicide bombing and 2.5 million refugees in swat and malakand. But is it is one part of the picture. Pakistan is country with more than 160 million population. The present government has gone to the people with slogan that this is our war and we are fighting for the safety of the nation. The Taliban not only threat America but also they threat the people of Pakistan . So why should we say that this is war being fought for America. These terrorist have taken lives of thousands of Pakistanis. It is very pleasing to see that finally the people are mobilized against the militants. If we look at the thousands of displaced people in swat, it shoes that the people are actually very mobilized and see Taliban as threat. The reason for people to move out of swat is that they wanted to prevent themselves from becoming the human shield for Taliban so that the army could fight and eliminate Taliban effectively. As a result army has cleared swat of Taliban and people has gone back to swat to live in a peaceful environment. United states was very generous to give money to military regime but now it is time for America to be generous to give money to help Pakistanis in their time of suffering.
Pakistan has suffered a significant economic and human loss caused by the recent unprecedented flood. The country has lost crops, live stock, infrastructure such as roads, bridges, telecommunication network, transmission lines and more than one million houses. The loss is in billions of rupees. The challenge is so big so the government has mobilized all the available resources to cop with but it needs international assistance to take the nation out of this disaster. This is the national disaster that shaken all Pakistanis.
This is the worst situation where militants can move in to take the advantage because the people are desperate so they are ready to receive help from anyone. The government can stop militants from taking advantage of this situation only if the international assistance comes quickly. The government has been trying hard to draw the international attention and make the world realize that the scale of destruction is so huge that more than 20 million people are the affected and displaced. The issue of water born diseases is a big challenge to be confronted with. At the beginning the most urgent need is the relief works to provide the flood victims with food, shelter, medicines. After the rescue and relief is done, the rehabilitation and reconstruction is going to be a big challenge. The world must stand by Pakistan in this hour of need.
The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) of Sindh and intelligence agencies doing his great job .
