  1. Topi drama, rangbazzi or actions inspired by terminator 3 D made in lolly wood in which biggest warrior is Sultan rahee.
    Again these wrongly guided terrorists couldnt approach to real war planners who daily enters in this building near 8 00pm and leave this building around 2 00 pm .All movements of top army management occur in extreme rush hours as this area is surrounded by almost 150 schools so their black cars took almost 20 to 25 minutes from mall road to reach in GHQ gate.So poor ignorant terrorists who as usual hit poor soldiers performing regular duties for securing their senseless officers.

  2. Nazia, you are providing nice help to terrorists. Now they dont have to do the spying.

  3. Nazia, please tell about the movemnet of zardari, as pakistan needs to get rid of him urgently

    but the problem is zardari sahab, kabhi kabhi pakistan k daoray per aatay hain

    5 months back I had serious argument with a brigadier who participated in war activities from GHQ that why you people are not targeted as we ordinary citizens on streets.Your houses are on main Indus road adjacent to GHQ,.Your time of coming and going to GHQ is fixed and your black cars with labeled stars are so visibly seen on daily routes of nearby congested roads but no terrorist has found to target them and all anger is thrown to general public who is unaware of what is going on in real battlefield.
    these days massive construction is being done on the roads to GHQ from main mall roads so almost daily one to two hrs traffic jams is observed on these roads.
    He didnt reply me any proper answer but surely showed lot of anger to me that we wanted his killing.
    I simply told him that it is army who is confronting with terrorism and these are policies of GHQ bosses who actually plan all this so why they dont make choice to attack hundred of officers like him as all are accessible to their range.
    If you have any idea of this area then tell me that only goof terrorists can attack from front side of GHQ as it has other weak sides and areas where real terrorists can easily penetrate and hit them without causing problems for poor civilians and soldiers,
    Kiyani’s Anian and janain is almost done after halting all civilian movements and three black mercedez cars convoys comprising of almost 20 to 30 cars daily give him cover up to go home safe and sound while trapping others on roads.
    So war in terror has become luxury for top establishment and death traps for ordinary people.

  5. Dear All,
    We all agree that it an attack of greater magnitude and shows that, more worrying aspect, the terrorists are coming up with newer ideas to inflict more damage and penetrate the safest of havens.
    Irrespective of the general belief, like Nazia has shown about the common man becoming a target for these heinous acts instead of the untouchables, it is alarming that the frequency of such attacks is increasing. Unlike our wickedly clever neighbour who would have thrown the responsibility straight away on Pakistan as it has been doing in the past, our top hierarchy is mum and still has not uttered a word against the not so hidden enemy. We need to identify these elements, who in my opinion are:
    1. India
    2. Afghanistan
    3. American Lobby
    4. Advocates of Provincial Autonomy
    5. Taliban
    6. Local Elements
    7. Our own Agencies
    And last but not the least
    8. Political Powerhouses of Pakistan
    9. Leaders in so called self-exile

    Unfortunately, we lack both the will to manage our affairs according to our own situation and men of vision who can lead us out of this death-trap.
    I pray that things take a turn for the better in the near future so that our future generations can live in a peaceful country and do not curse us for jeopardizing their chances of leading a better life.

  6. I have just come from the nearby areas of GHQ,the tension is still on and it looks that there is something going on still in that area as no normal movement is still allowed in streets adjacent to GHQ.Some journalists are declaring that there might be hostage situation in some building .Still not clear but search operation behind Qasim market area is still going on but nobody is clear that what is exactly going on.Eye witnesses claiming that casualties of soldiers and some men in plain clothes are more than what is claiming on TV.

  7. @ Nazia
    You must be with the Terrorist? Whats your problem? You want these Bastard Terrorist to kill the Elite? or in your mind that they(ELITE) are CREATING this situation so our innocent get killed? You look like and act like an agent of Terrorist who spread the ROUmors like GEO. Our ARMY is trying to save you and seventeen crore Illitrate from the terrorist.

  8. “Our ARMY is trying to save you and seventeen crore Illitrate from the terrorist.”

    Army created these terrorists in the first place…

  9. @7
    where is procedure of my security?
    Which area is safe heaven for me?
    if army couldnt secure its areas and people how can I trust them about me.
    My family persons have just near misses in most of blasts in Lahore pindi areas many time.My cousin just left Pakistan as first time she just escaped from marriot bombing but she lost all her documents in this incident,In lahore ISI attack, her office roof collapsed but saving them all by chance.
    She now cant even hear the sound of crackers so her parents let her to go out of country.
    Army was in war on terror for last 7 years .Each month brings more scar to our soul with more dead bodies and mass destruction.
    so this is my real problem as I am still in search of peace of mind for my family for many many years.

  10. @8
    our some people love the quote of bush which he said after 911 events.
    he said.You are either with us or with terrorists.
    So our white skin worshipper preferred white skin master and his master plans and opted to fight against its own people.
    Now all have realized this act actually enhanced process of talibanisation in our area.
    so I mean to say that US lovers always consider other as terrorists if anybody dares to confront with them.

  11. @ Nazia
    Its very unfortunate, what ever happen to your close family but that does not mean that your sympathy goes with terrorist. As I have always said, Make people aware that if they see strange activity in neighbour hoods, they need to alert law enforcement. These Bastard were living in your families neibour hood but No one was aware of them???
    If you want to go to Heaven then may be you should do good deeds or if you want to go earlier(before HEAVEN gets full) then join the Illitrate Suicide Bombers. Barack Obama will bring the piece of mind soon to all Muslim countries.

  12. Peer shahib
    you are very intelligent like our intelligence teams who were successfully launching operation for last 24 hrs to catch the real culprits while terrorists were busy in taking hostages in one of secure most area of Pakistan.
    You have discovered that my family and myself is part of terrorism mafia so use this high profile counter intelligence probe to catch me and terrorists too and try to make this country a safe heaven for ordinary people of Pakistan who are living without bullet and bomb proofs cars, patrol cars, under cover of dozens of security of men and in barracks type colonial life styles which are secured by hundreds of poor security men on the monthly wages of 6000 to 8000 Rs
    If you have full plans of going to heaven and that is why you are doing good deeds then I think I will request Allah to spare me to select for heaven as you are best choice to give company to those who are opting suicidal attacks for going to heaven.You and talibans both have same acquisitive desires of wine and women, offers by Allah in Holy books to keep muslim men in straight track in this worldly life.
    Just 2 and half year back my lahore family home was breached by 4 dacoits jumping from nearby home.My family took prompt actions and police caught them within 24 hrs of robbery.But the lady tenet of that house who is also widow of a lahore commissioner got released them in 6 hrs and when my family persuaded them , they come to know that high influential men involved in land mafia scams and have strong linked with chaudry shujaat group are backing that attractive widow.
    Now after repetitive complains that this house is having suspicious entries on daily basis, they have converted this home as center of Islamic teachings and on daily basis free food is supplied to 100 of poor people .
    So I again say that these bastards are protected by influential groups who have got shortcuts of becoming rich in dictatorial rules and now controlling unseen factors to save their illegal assets.We need strong judicial system to control this and I am happy we have laid foundation of this system too as an ordinary citizen.
    So you do your job and try to sort out real terrorists from locals living as elite class around us.

  13. @Nazia
    You and your relatives are from the same Elite group. so whats your point? The people with armored car/body guards earned that living(Which ever way),So why are you jealous of them. You are a commoners and you do not desrve that Luxury.

  14. @14
    Sorry we belong to educated class of society and have no link with naou dulatias ok.
    The people using armor cars and hiring body guards are not from their hard money, they are getting all this on our money which we regularly paid as tax. So it is not matter of jealousy but wave of anger for such aliens who only come back to country to rule us on the basis of our money.
    These people are now giving different statements on such open terrorism to create confusion in state affairs.Our rehman malik is just declaring that war would be started in waziristan without knowing that air raid has already been started there.
    So mission completed over the dead bodies of poor soldiers again,

  15. jo rat ko tangen phela kar soti ho na aram say wo ainhen army walon ki wajh say ye na hota na tu dushman teray gher bethay hotay smjhe agar sache hay tu samnay ah kar yani media per ah kar apni bakvas kar takay duniya tera tamasha dekhay , simag thek kar apna jahil wo b parhe lekhe
