Mobilizing the Nation Against War on Terror
Saturday, July 4, 2009
Our country is fighting a war on terror. There is a military operation going on in Swat and Malakand. Over thirty million people have become homeless. Army is chasing/encircling Taliban in North and South Waziristan. Drone attacks are taking place in Waziristan. Owing to a massive military operation by Americans in Helmund province, Army is being redeployed along Afghan border in the South to prevent fleeing Taliban entering Pakistan. Terrorists are being killed in dozens per day. Army, too, is losing its soldiers on daily basis.
With all above happening in our country, the life goes on as usual except for a few statements from the political leaders and regular programs of discussion on TV channels. Has the government or anyone else seriously thought of mobilizing the nation? Even the electronic media has not been able to produce one good national song reflecting the current situation. There is a need for the government to find ways and means to mobilize the nation and implement the same as a well thought out policy.
