@vangala @IndiaToday That is why it is right to say that Kashmir is not the only dispute influencing the relations between the two countries. Hindus never accepted the creation of Pakistan. Hate mongers.

چین نے مشکل وقت میں پاکستان کا ساتھ دیا، لیکن پاکستان صرف چین پر انحصار نہیں کر رہا، پاکستان امریکا سمیت دیگر ممالک سے بھی متوازن تعلقات چاہتا ہے۔چین اس بات کو سمجھتا ہے اور پاکستان پر اعتماد رکھتا ہے. نبیلہ جعفر

.Both Pakistan and India fought a war. Both claimed victory. Perhaps both did win — but their people lost.
In the aftermath, they may not see each other for years to come.
In this clash of thunder and fire, it wasn’t just soldiers or cities that suffered.
It was love — silenced, shattered, and swept away by the storms of war.

#Parachinar and surrounding areas have been suffering for the past 5 days due to continuous clashes and violence. While Dawn reports these are tribal clashes over a piece of land there are many on Twitter who claim sectarian reasons behind the violence. The mainstream media and anchors must highlight the plight of Parachinar and the locals to not only bring out the truth but also to force the State machinery to focus its efforts in bringing peace to Kurram Agency and protecting those suffering violence. Kurram has had a bloody history of sectarian clashes and its local shia community has been victim of multiple terror attacks and siege at the hands to terror outfits including TTP. In my visit to Parachinar in 2017 after a bomb attack which claimed dozens of lives, I learnt how over the years the youth of the city mostly shia has been forced to migrate or seek asylum abroad due to lack of economic opportunities and continuous threats to life. The people of Parachinar had to stage a 10 days sit-in protest back then before anyone from Federal Govt responded. Don't test patience of the oppressed and don't ridicule their plight any further. After the Fata Merger KP Govt is responsible for law and order in the area. Unfortunate that an interim set up i.e. unelected officials continue to govern KP even after 6 months against the dictates of the constitution. In the long run depriving any area or region of democracy will only facilitate violence and not peace.

So-called human rights activists & so-called Pashtun nationalists have always been silent on the plight of #Shia community in #Parachinar. Whenever there is a conflict, Parachinar is attacked from all sides including Afghanistan & also Pashtun Lashkars from adjacent areas.

[Dr. Taimur Rahman @Taimur_Laal]

Every time support for an Islamic system or sharia grows stronger, we always end up in sectarian violence, extremism and terrorism.

Attacks in Pewar, Bughaki, Balishkhel, Teri Mangal, #Parachinar point towards a building #Shiagenocide

State is unable to #SecureTheKurram

[Baqir Sajjad @baqirsajjad]

Disturbing scenes at the fenced border as TTP & Afghan Taliban gather, poised to leap into the escalating sectarian conflict in #Parachinar. Another build up near Kohat. With 12 lives already lost, how many more will it take before forces intervene?
