		<description>I sort of agree with 'onepakistani' , how can you put your loyalty to a party at the cost of the nation. If you totally subscribe to a party that means you are partisan. Why not just evaluate party upon the decisions and policies.</description>

		<description>No Mr OnePakistani from Toronto,
You came to my site in support of your own worldview. Anyone who knows me personally is well aware that I am not partisan. Yet I have long believed that the PPP is the best hope for this country and I still believe so. Is that a crime?
However I want to point out a subtle difference between the PPP and the MQM which you seem to support. While hardly any of the PPP leadership was ever indicted in a court of law on corruption, the MQM leadership was indeed indicted. There was concrete evidence available at that time and the witnesses who might have been killed since then. It is the MQM which has butchered innocent people. I was in Karachi on May 12, 2007 and have vivide recollection of that sad day. Please do not try to justify MQM by giving the PPP's example for there is no simple comparison. On one side is a line of leaders who come back to the country despite all odds and die and on the other is Don Altaf Hussain who has accepted foreign nationality to save his skin.</description>

		<description>Farrukh,

I came to your blog looking for some good reading regarding Pakistan, but all I found was rants from a blind PPP worker.

To me, no party is perfect and every one has their shortcomings. But I find it ironic that people who blame others for their misdeed but ignore and balantly deny the existence of their own-misdeeds.

Asif Zardari may not have been indicted for his crime and the cases were considered in the judiciary for 10 years, but does that mean he didn't commit those crimes? 

Lets assume your theory to be correct, then according to the same logic, Altaf Hussain or Imran Farooq of MQM didn't commit any crime either, because no court has proved them to be of guilty of any crime.

Same goes for the murderer of innocent people in Hyderabad, Dr Qadir Magsee. Since the courts were not able to indict him, then he remains an angel.

For your information if you live in a distant place away from reality, Benazir Bhutto, who you call Shaheed was responsible for the murder of hundreds of innoncent people of Karachi and Hyderabad. Have you ever heard of Pakka Qila Operation? When BB Govt released criminals from jails in order to have enough people to shoot at innocent people of Pakka Qila Hyderabad.... No these would all sound consipracy theories to you, because your judgement power has been deluded by the blind love of Benazir Bhutto.

And sir, for your Miles and Stones you may have received 2.6 Million hits but is that what you seek? I am one of those 2.6 million hits to you, but be assured I'm not going to come back to your site. I am not blinded by love of PPP or PML or MQM.</description>
