Pakistan: The massacre of the Pilgrims.

The Mastung killings

=================================================
I strongly condemn the atrocious killing of 26 pilgrims in a passenger bus in Mastung. This act is meant to spread the venom of hatred between two sects. These sorts of hostilities are carried out by the real enemies of Pakistan; by those who don’t want peace here and those with an aim to destabilise the country.

Whoever committed this heinous crime should feel ashamed of themselves. They are not worthy of calling themselves human beings, leave alone Muslims.

Every Pakistani is shocked to hear that 26 pilgrims on their way to Iran were lined up and shot dead by terrorists. What are we up to? Where is the government of Pakistan? And what about our security agencies? What are they doing? They have failed on all fronts.

We are passing through the worst period of our history and the future seems no different. Prime Minister Gilani once remarked that all at the helm are safe till 2013. I wish he had also told us if Pakistan, too, would remain safe.

The recent terrorist attacks and natural disasters occurring in Pakistan make one wonder where this country is heading. We have terrorists attacking pilgrims, we have politicians dramatising their press conferences, the economy is in shambles and schools are being blown up. Makes you wonder if ‘Pakistan se zinda bhag’ is true after all.
