Criminals slipping through with the refugees. Will they stop before they destroy the whole country? Time for everybody to step up to put a stop to this insanity. There is no room to play it safe. No room for moderates to keep silence.

This is all done by America & its western allies, who have cleverly shifted their war into the hands of  Pakista, now on both sides only Muslims are dying. No body is blaming America for bringing death and destruction to Afghan & now Pak & this is really worst part of this saga of war,  so called" war on terror".Every body speaks about terror of ghost 'Al-Qaida, but nobody remembers real vilian 'Mr Bush' who ochestrated this all starting from twin towers and then Iraq, but now they know that they have put their boots on wrong place. They are well awrae of the fact that Afhganis are loin hearted people least afraid of death, a martial race never subjugated by any power in past.So they cleverly shifted the war to pakistan , who they know under the leadership of Mr 10% can kill even their families for Dollars as tha Mr 10% has already qualified for this expertise.

Yeah yeah... each and everything is being done by the Jews and the Freemasons and the Catholics and bla bla bla... we the Muslims are very innocent... especially those Taliban guys... they are Angels... they never looted a convoy which was headed towards those whom they assume to be the protectors of... they never flogged young girls in public... it was just a propoganda movie made by some Jew-sponsored Pakistani channel, isn't so?... they never remarked all other Muslim countries as Kafirs... they never called the Supreme Court of Pakistan as Kafir... they are the most merciful humans alive on this planet earth... they never attacked mosques... it was just CIA, RAW and ISI doing in disguise of them... they never forced women to marriages... they allow everyone to shave or keep beard as they like... and the story of their greatness goes on... and yeah, I am clapping with one hand...

You said Muslims dying on both sides... OK... then justify your stand and come-up with some real thing... OK, here's a million dollar question: According to Islam, can you declare whose Muslim and whose Kafir? And yeah, the billion dollar answer is: NO, you can't, because these things relate to intentions and, you as a human, can't judge anyones intentions, dig? But, what you can do is that you can judge others by their acts and facts, and yeah, acts and facts of the Tallies clearly declare them Animals, and you call them Muslims!!!

Why blame America when they have already accepted their mistakes made in the past, the way they left us with these Animals... that Hillary thing...

Mr. Bush... why not? But, that's a separate debate!

Very true... Afghanis are lion-hearted... no problem with that... But, was that Ladin shit an Afghani? What about most of the Uzbeks and bla bla in Taliban, they aren't Afghanis, isn't so? What about the lost souls who joined them from Pakistan and India, they aren't Afghanis, isn't so? Clarify yourself first, remember, Taliban is an IDEOLOGICAL term, not an ethnic one, which finds roots into Wahabism of Egypt and Saudi Arabia...

Leave that 10% or 100% shit aside, he's not our leader, our Chief Executive is Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani, according to the constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, which you might not abide by as you seem to be on Animals' side...

Afghanis are very courteous, brave and good souls who got stuck in b/w that miscreant Taliban/Al-Qaida/whatever... Verily, terrorists have no religion...

We need to remove the illusions that we have regarding Americans, Indians, Europeans... keeping those politicians aside which are the same everywhere and that intelligence fraternity, most of the remainig are good one's, I've found that in all those years of my life... I've seen non-Mulims much greater in many respects as compared to Muslims... it's not about how we live... it's about how we effect others... they came to your rescue in October earthquake and we still call them Pigs, on the other hand, those Tallies fucked the hell out of us and we are still confused whether to blame them or not, C'mon!!!
