IT IS BEYOND MY UNDERSTANDING THAT ONE IGNORANT MULLAH CAN CONTROL SWAT AND PEOPLE'S LIFE,WHAT THAT SO CALLED POWERFUL PAKISTANI ARMY DOING?IF THEY CAN'T KILL THIS MONSTER THEN LET NATO HANDLE HIM....ITS REALLY AMAZING THAT PAKISTANI REGIME IS ACTING HELPLESS AND LETTING THIS BARBARIAN MONSTER TO KILL INNOCENT PUKHTUNS AND DENY GIRLS EDUCATION.There might be problems of poverty, diseases lack of resources but its not like Swat was the only part in the country prone to that. Its simple, they created a monster, it got lose and now its out of their hands. This is why these incompetent retards in the previous Govt were let go of by their real masters.

If international humiliation and domestic depression is what the Taliban wanted, they have found the device with which to do it in Swat. They have released a list of 43 people whom they have declared “wanted” and liable to punishment under the Taliban sharia. People on the list include former and current members of the national and provincial assemblies, district and local nazims, officials of political parties, local elders and other influential residents of the troubled valley.
And what is the Taliban sharia all about? Warlord Fazlullah says those on the list will face some sort of sharia court but he also says in the same breath that the “enemies” would “be arrested or killed by his men”. He promises that they would face the court only if they escape getting killed. The death sentence has already been passed and his men will most probably try to do the rough justice with their own hands. In his mind, Mr Fazlullah is content that the sharia court is there to back him up but only if he wants the court to do the job. There can be no doubt that he will make it clear to the court what kind of verdict he wants for his “enemies”.
This is not sharia. This is a clear stratagem of war. It becomes clear when he announces amnesty for those of his “enemies” who have stopped opposing him. This he has done without reference to the sharia courts he presumably has functioning in Swat. The charade is lost on no one except those who forgive the atrocities of these people because in their minds these have come about only because the army has not been withdrawn from Swat as per the “unanimous” resolution of the Pakistani Parliament. Publicists opposed to the government continue to bring up witnesses from the Swat region who complain only of the “atrocities” committed by the army through collateral damage.
One can make an easy prediction. The ANP claim that “good news” will come from Swat “in fifteen days” will have to be swallowed without a glass of water like the earlier papers signed with the warlord. The hit-list is in fact his answer to the ANP’s “good news”. The scene in Swat is depressing and it is all the more so because it is a warlord’s two-finger sign in the face of our mighty army. Swat is the war that Pakistan will have to fight if it wants to survive. All other “threats” are political red herrings.(DAILY TIMES)
