Taliban attacked on Pakistan Ordinance factory yesterday. It has been reported that more then 70 innocent people had lost their lives and hundreds are injured. Taliban immediately accepted the responsibility of blasts and demanded to stop the military operation and negotiations. They further threatened to continue the series of blasts in Punjab.
Several retired army generals suggested that the so called “War on Terror” drama should be stopped now and government should negotiate with Talibans in order to stop these dreadful incidents. It was said that government will take action on it and will give hands of negotiations. The first statement of Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gillani was that Government is ready for negotiations.
After about an hour, it was reported that PM received a phone call from President Bush. Officials stated that the call was to congratulate PM to solve the matter of Musharraf. Now just imagine, Musharraf resigned on 18, whereas Bush calls on 21 August to congratulate.
And what next? PM Yousaf Raza Gillani immediately changes his statement that Government will not negotiate and will continue the Operation. Later, the government officials including Sherry Rehman acknowledged that government will continue operation in tribal areas.
Now I left this on you people. You decide what that phone call was for? To congratulate or . . .?
