Are Balochs and Shias not Muslim??
The latest news is that the intelligence agencies have unearthed a plot by Lashkar-e-Jhangvi and Sipah Sahaba to use suicide bombers to kill Shia members of the legislative council of the Northern Areas.
It is clear that preparations are being made for another bout of sectarian attacks. On Monday, a Sunni cleric from Multan was gunned down in Karachi to avenge the murder of a Shia cleric in Balochistan a day earlier.
The entire country has become linked in a network of terrorism which now boasts Al Qaeda-style suicide-bombing. If you look at the map of the country, the territories under challenge comprise the Northern Areas, the North and South Waziristan Agencies in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) and all of Balochistan, the largest province comprising 40 percent of Pakistan’s territory.
One can easily say that half of Pakistan is in the grip of people whose way of life is violence. And who is responsible for this if not the government which has been unable to tackle the problems that give rise to this violence?
The biggest mess is in Gilgit, the administrative centre of the Northern Areas. And the mess dates back to the army’s decision to deploy an extremist anti-Shia Lashkar-e-Tayba during the Kargil Operation of 1999 in tandem with regular troops.
Army was also not able to prevent the target-killing of prominent Shia leaders, which enlisted the sectarian emotion of the entire community in the country.
