Sunni Terrorist Fragments of Unstable Pakistan-13 June,2016
Re: Sunni Terrorist Fragments of Unstable Pakistan-13 June,2016
Balochistan since past few years is directly handled by MI,The second incident to anger the PA was the Hamid Mir assassination attempt in April 2014 when it was openly suggested that 'the Angels' were behind the attack. His brother, another noted journalist, Amir Mir directly blamed the ISI for this assassination attempt even as Hamid Mir lay critically wounded in a Karachi hospital, and this telecast on GEO TV so angered the ISI so much that it asked PEMRA to shut down the GEO TV channels. The PEMRA promptly shut down the channel for 15 days along with a fine of USD 100,000 even as GEO sued the ISI in a court of law. Hamid Mir had earlier claimed that his expose of the missing Balochistanis (abducted and killed by the ISI) had angered the ISI Chief.

SSji, great summary. 2 questions:
1. In your post it appears that Army is for anti-terrorist clean-up of Punjab but NS is unwilling. I had thought it was the exact opposite - NS wants terrorists to be cleaned up but Army is unwilling to lose their strategic depth. What does NS gain from jihadis in Punjab? Doesn't the law and order situation get in the way of his business interests? Won't he get more votes as a tough guy cleaning up the state and improving the security situation a-la-Duterte?
2. You mention Imran Khan's PTI as a terrorist sympathizer. Word on the street is that IK is a benami of the military, to be used to tighten the screw on NS. So which is it - terrorist or army prop - primarily, and how do you conclude that?
