The biggest problem that Pakistan has to solve is Islam.

Pakistani Taliban militants have started a new battle against the judiciary, which they claim has “failed to protect innocent citizens like Dr Aafia Siddiqui.”

At least four persons were killed when two suicide bombers blew themselves up within the premises of the judicial complex in Peshawar on Monday.

After much deliberation, outlawed Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), accepting responsibility for the suicide attack, said the attack has been launched against the judicial system which has failed to protect innocent citizens like Dr Aafia Siddqui.

Speaking to Dawn.Com from an undisclosed location, TTP spokesman Ehsanullah Ehsan said the attack has been carried out by the outfit’s “Aafia Siddqui Brigade.”

Capital City Police Officer Imtiaz Altaf confirmed that two suicide bombers entered the judicial complex and opened indiscriminate firing on the policemen performing guard duty at the entrance and entered the complex

The CCPO added that “one of them (attackers) was shot dead by the police while the other blew himself up inside the court premises causing damage to the walls and doors.”

He further said that four people were killed and 25 others were injured.

He added that there was no hostage situation as only two attackers had entered the complex and one of them was gunned down by the law enforcement agencies while the other blew himself up in the court of additional sessions judge Kalsoom Azam.

The bomb disposal squad official Zahid Khan told Dawn.Com that the suicide vest of the bomber was removed after he was being shot dead, adding that “one of his arm was blown up as the hand-grenade he was carrying exploded.”

Chief Secretary Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Ghulam Dastagir Khan, speaking to media in the hospital, said that four people died in the attack while 25 others have been injured including four policemen.

Provincial Information Minster Mian Iftikhar Hussain said that the attack clearly showed the militants wanted to sabotage the upcoming elections and disrupt the democratic process.

He added, it appears the militants wanted to carry out attacks before the start of election process so as to delay the elections or get them postponed.

The injured were shifted to the nearby Lady reading Hospital where the condition of three victims was reported as critical.

Security forces cordoned off and conducted a search operation in the area.

The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Bar Council and the Peshawar High Court Bar Association has called for a strike on Tuesday and will observe black day to condemn the attack.

A Shia lawyer was gunned down by unidentified men in Pahripura on Monday morning.

The police said Advocate Syed Zaheer Abbas, a resident of Wadpaga, was on a motorcycle with his assistant Syed Ghulam Nabi Shah when two armed motorcyclists opened fire on them. The attackers escaped after the assault.

“They sprayed bullets at the two men, killing Zaheer Abbas, and leaving his assistant seriously injured,” said a police official. Syed Ghulam Nabi Shah was shifted to the Lady Reading Hospital (LRH) where his condition was said to be critical, he added.

Sometime I wonder if the Jinnah/Muslim league plan was an immature one that assumed that once the Muslim elite left India, the rest of India would collapse and beg/warrant re-invasion by "Mughals"

Looks like the Pakistani mindset never actually left India. They lived in Pakistan and thanked Allah for their luck, but always fancied a victorious return to India. I think what the "Paki mindset" or idea of Pakistan did not guess was that India would be happy to be rid of them

For all the spouting we have on BRF for reclaim of Paki territories, which some Indians no doubt may feel is needed, I think a significant percentage of Indians are happy to be rid of the Pakistan Islamic entitlement pestilence. Many Indians really don't want to have anything to do with that toilet bowl state Pakistan. Oh yes we are neighbours and I have heard the crap that we cannot choose our neighbours.

Having heard the GoI viewpoint from intelligent and erudite bureaucrats like Shivshankar Menon and Pillai, I disagree with both of them They are showing attitudes that makes Philip rightly ask "Wither Indian diplomacy?" Indians don't really care for Pakistan and should not be forced to do anything other than what Pakistanis deserve - that is to be shot if they try to cross back into India.

Is this being Anti-Islamic? Well if Pakistan is Islam then yes this is anti-Islamic. I am anti-Pakistan and anyone who believes that Pakistan is Islam is welcome to call me an Islamophobe. Pakistanis do claim that Pakistan is Islam don't they?

Do I wish for the Pakistani state to collapse? I don't give a damn whether they collapse or not, but I am certain to cheer if they do. Am I saddened by Pakitan's continued existence. I don't give a damn. I am not "saddened" by the existence of a toilet near my house. It has its utility.

Are my views unreasonable and inhuman? No more inhuman than the terrorists who come from Pakistan. No more inhuman than the murderers in Pakistan.

Pakistan: Update. At least two people were killed March 18 in a suspected suicide attack against a court and prison complex in Peshawar, in northwestern Pakistan.

Comment: This attack is an astonishing lapse of security. Attacks such as this almost always have insider cooperation. They may be expected to increase in the run up to elections when a caretaker government is in charge.

KARACHI: Intellectuals from a number of fields came together to point out the horrifying prejudices found in text books in Pakistan at a talk on ‘Biases in Textbooks and Education Policy’ organised by the National Commission for Justice and Peace (NCJP) on Monday.“I have heard of cases where Muslim students ask non-Muslim high achievers: Why don’t you convert to our religion,” recalled Karamat Ali, the executive director of the Pakistan Institute of Labour Education and Research. “And it is not just Muslims and Hindus, but also Shias who are given this treatment. This is because of the horrifying myths about people of other faiths that we fill our children with.”Ali criticised political parties for having a narrow vision. “Every party says that they’ll bring ‘roti, kapra and makaan’. What about the freedom to practice your religion?”Dr Bernadette Dean, the principal of St Joseph’s College for Women, spoke about the religious and gender biases found in text books in Pakistan. “In the curriculum, Islamiat was included in the ‘general knowledge’ taught to children and was made compulsory for students in classes one, two and three,” she pointed out.

. Many animals that are slaughtered on Eid tend to be murdered by amateur butchers that crop up all over Pakistan hoping to make a quick buck by running a knife any which way through the millions of animals that are lined up to be put down.
2. What’s worse – many children (some as young as 10 to 12-years-old) are encouraged to hold the knife during the actual moment of throat-slitting. You know that moment right? The moment when there is maximum pain and suffering for the animal. Yeah, great idea having a fumbling child or adolescent’s hand holding a knife being pressed down on a terrified living creature by an amateur butcher. Very mard-e-momin or what-have-you, and yes I say mard, because I don’t recall ‘ever’ seeing a woman partaking in this slaughter.
3. Blood is everywhere. It is congealed at my doorstep. It is in my lawn. It is sprayed across the newly whitewashed walls of my neighbourhood. It is pouring onto the streets and no one, I repeat, no one seems to have any civic sense or an iota of responsibility regarding the clean-up. I understand that we are a filthy nation with no regard for each other, but it’s a religious festival – shouldn’t this be the one (sorry, three) days where we at least pretend to care?
4. In an agriculture-based, poverty-stricken dump of a country like ours, one would think that meat eating would be considered a distant second to a healthy, vegetable or grain-based diet, but no!“To hell with our Hindu roots”I have literally heard that yelled out at a family gathering, meat is the pinnacle of the Pakistani diet; the fundamental food stuff everyone must aspire to, regardless of whether they can afford it or not, and whether it is healthy or not. Meat is just cool. Nowhere is this exemplified more than on Eid, where meat, glorious meat is literally all anyone eats for a day, no wait, a week, no wait, a month after

If you haven’t seen a camel being sacrificed in Pakistan, please do so and let me know at what point stabbing an animal 12-20 times in the neck as it runs around screaming in a circle while a crowd of people cheer is not a barbaric inhuman violence-celebrating spectacle, as compared to say, something spiritual that Islam condones.

Hence, when our friends are interested in discussing themes such as restraint with us, they should think of what would make sense to Pakistan. Even in this area their definition of restraint seems driven by the objective that Pakistan should slow down production of its nuclear weapons. They conveniently ignore the responsibility of their own countries to exercise restraint in supplying India with conventional, non-conventional and strategic weapons and technology. They have also showed no restraint in accommodating our neighbour into multilateral export control regimes, while denying us such participation. They do not object to Russia supplying nuclear submarines to India, which can carry nuclear cruise missiles and critical technical assistance to India’s nuclear submarine programme, as acknowledged by the Indian PM.It is curious to note that the major Western powers advocate bilateralism with India on the Kashmir dispute in order to create a comfort zone in which they do not annoy India. On the other hand, when Pakistan insists on a bilateral approach on strategic issues in South Asia, our Western friends follow the Indian position and bring in concern over China to excuse India from conventional or strategic restraint. This despite the fact that the major part of India’s military assets is deployed against Pakistan In terms of the unilateral strategic restraint advocated for Pakistan, one can see what is in it for India and for its Western and Russian friends, but the question is: what is in it for Pakistan? The 180 million people of Pakistan cannot afford that the country falters or falls under external threat. The existence of a strong nuclear capable Pakistan is also a considered a source of strength, like the concept in naval strategy of a “fleet in being”, by Muslim countries and their people, the Muslims of India and also by the Muslim Diaspora worldwide at a time when Islam, and its adherents in Muslim countries and elsewhere, are perceived to be under threat.Pakistan’s proposals in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s in the nuclear and missile areas affirm the restraint DNA of Pakistan. The irony is that our friends advocate restraint only when they see Pakistan responding to a strategic environment facilitated and supported by them. They need to develop strategic clarity and realism as well.To conclude with the way forward. Much depends on India reciprocating Pakistan’s objective and proposals for strategic restraint and much also depends on the international community supporting this objective in an even-handed manner.

Jinnah served Indian Muslims far more than just the creation of Pakistan. The Government of India Act (1935) could not have been in the federal and minority-friendly shape had Jinnah not spoken for the constitutional rights of Indian Muslims (as a minority) in his Fourteen Points (1929). The same Act gave birth to the Constitutions of Pakistan and India after 1947. In his points, Jinnah educated Indian Muslims how to appreciate their rights in any constitutional scheme in the future. The next generation of Indian Muslims who benefitted from the efforts of Jinnah is now residing in Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh. Secondly, in the present India, the existing Hindu-Muslim harmony could not have been possible had the Hindus not felt the pain of the vivisection of the united India. Jinnah militated against the constitutional Brahmanism of the Hindus and taught them the lesson of showing respect for Indian minorities of all hues.One Urdu writer also writes that the youth of Pakistan like the older generation might not know that Pakistan was founded to save the Indian subcontinent from the eruption of communal riots and a consequent civil war. This argument is again flawed. If Hindu-Muslim riots had the power to create a country, Pakistan could have been founded before the 1945-46 elections. Many people still do not believe that one person could singlehandedly protect constitutional rights of Indian Muslims. Many people also think that the British cannot be defeated unless they themselves selected to be defeated. The ignorant lot in Pakistan underrates the brilliance of Jinnah as a constipational patient expert and undervalues his courage to speak for the rights of Indian Muslims.

A group of around 20 Buddhist monks from South Korea made the journey to the monastery of Takht-e-Bahi, 170 kilometres (106 miles) from Islamabad, and close to the tribal areas that are a haven for Taliban and al Qaeda linked militants.

“We really felt it is our home town, it was a great feeling which it is not possible to describe in words,” Jeon Woon Deok, a senior Korean monk, told AFP by email of the visit last year.

“We only regret that we waited so long to come here.” And it was no straightforward pilgrimage.

The monks defied appeals from Seoul to abandon their trip for safety reasons and were guarded by Pakistani security forces on their visit to the monastery, built of ochre-coloured stone and nestled on a mountainside.

In a brutal killing, militants suspected to be from the Lashkar-e-Taiba(LeT) pumped five bullets into an 18-year-old youth inside a mosque in Sopore area because he had taken active part in sports events organised by the police and the Army.

The incident on Tuesday night in which Suhail Ahmad Sofi died on the spot led Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Omar Abdullah to question "double standards" of the opposition parties and "selective outrage" by the social media in condemning killing of civilians during violence in the valley.

Sofi was sitting with another local youth in the compound of the mosque at Doabgah when unidentified militants opened fire on him but he managed to escape from the spot and took refuge inside the 'Hamaam' (heating fireplace) of the religious place, superintendent of police Sopore Imtiyaz Hussain said.

He said one militant entered the mosque, where a congregation had assembled for night prayers and pumped five bullets into Sofi.

"We don't know yet whether he was an informer or not. The clues we got from the scene indicate that the killing was handiwork of LeT militants," Hussain said. No militant has claimed responsibility for the incident.

The Grand Mufti of Jammu and Kashmir Mufti Bashiruddin Ahmad condemned the attack, saying Islam does not allow killing of innocent people and that too inside a mosque. The youth was buried at his ancestral graveyard on Tuesday morning.

"If security forces would have killed anyone you would have marched to the well and torn your clothes. You would have thrown mikes and demanded answers from me, but when militants kill any one why don't you raise your voice. Why these double standards?" Omar said looking towards the opposition benches in the state assembly which is in session in Jammu.

According to local residents, the victim was actively taking part in sports events organised by police and Army and also encouraged other youth of his area to participate in these activities. The sports events had helped in keeping youth away from disruptive activities after 2010 summer agitation in the valley.

They believe that this enthusiasm to channelise his energy and that of his forays into constructive activities could have been the reason for his killing.

In a tweet targeting the netizens, Omar also said "Imagine the outrage if this had been done by security forces."

The chief minister said the "hypocrisy" was evident from the reactions on his Twitter timeline to the killing of a youth by CRPF personnel last week and lack of any reaction to Sofi's killing.

"Want to see the hypocrisy of selective outrage? Compare reactions on my TL (timeline) today to those exactly a week ago," he added.

Hussain said Fahdullah, a top commander of LeT and who hails from Pakistan, was suspected to be behind Sofi's killing.

"He was not physically present at the scene but he was seen in the area some time before the incident," the officer added.

Sofi is survived by his parents, a brother, who is studying in seventh standard and elder sister who has completed graduation.

While the separatist groups so far have maintained silence over the killing, the Grand Mufti said Islam does not allow killing of innocent people, especially inside the mosque.

"A mosque is house of Allah and anyone who enters house of Allah is safe. The mosques cannot be turned into killing fields," the Mufti said.

The Mufti said shedding the blood of innocent people is un-Islamic.

"The Holy Quran is very clear that if someone sheds blood of one innocent, he has killed the humanity."

Omar said he was willing to accept the anger directed against the government for excesses by the security forces only from those who are willing to condemn the killings by militants as well.

"I can accept the anger directed against us for excesses by security forces but only from people willing to condemn such killings," he said.
