Perhaps in response to my last blog (http://naseemmahnavi.blogspot.com/2013/02/carnage-in-quetta.html) in which I had questioned the motive of the massacre, I received the following message which is in Urdu but written in English. The year 1983 seems to be a typing error as General Musa was martial law administrator/governor of West Pakistan during the rule of General Ayub Khan in early 60's and governor of Baluchistan during General Zia-ul-Haq from 1985 to 1988
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musa_Khan). I have heared the story for the first time and have doubts about its veracity. But if such allegations are circulating, any kind of madness can be expectd.

I received the same text this morning.
ReplyDeleteIts indeed quite sad and alarming that religious intolerance and hatred has grown to such a level that some fanatics and hard core militants have been able to manipulate our people so easily.
Ignorance or lack of proper education/knowledge is one reason why we continue to get blinded by our religious sentiments and as a consequence incidents like Abbas town or Badami bagh keep happening.
Where are we headed??
Keeping your kids healthy must be much of your concern, so
ReplyDeleteensure that you purchase only quality baby care products.
From the simple plastic or wooden constructions that children can ride on, to drag or push toys that toddlers would enjoy to ride on, to motor-driven riders and miniaturized versions of popular car brands and makes which can be liked by
young children, ride-on toys would continually be a a part of any child's playtime menagerie.
Ask people around, do a little research or ask elders prior to going searching for your loved one.
