Alleged IS wall chalking in H-9

Yes. Only after we have destroyed the LEJ and TTP which are attacking Pakistan should we concentrate on hizb and let. They are threats too but the primary threat are the Taliban, Jundullah, IMU, and LEJ
:D They are fighting for our interest and you are asking em threat.

There are slogans everywhere in Karachi in support of the TTP. There are also flags fluttering across the city of the Lashkar E Jhangvi. This is what I call misplaced priorities. Currently ISIS presents the least threat to Pakistan. The real threat is the Taliban, Jundullah, Lashkar E Jhangvi and Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan. These groups have in the past attacked Pakistani interests and they continue to do so.

You are right on the dot when you outline these Islamist militant organizations and their influence in Pakistan. But, you are missing a key point, all these guys have been kicked to the curb to some degree. They ALL want a "big name" terrorist organization, (like a brand in sports such as Adidas), to sponsor them or where they can use "association" with that brand terrorist name to create false impression and association. Seriously messed up mentality and tactics, but we are talking about extremists here.

Al-Qaeda was that brand name and US depreciated it to a large degree and incapacitated their ability to do serious damage around the world. Now people from them, went to being "Taliban" fractions and Pakistan was the only destination they could strike. Result is thousands of innocents and billions of loss in economic activity and military hardware (AWACS, P3C's, etc). The biggest threat that Pakistan faces post Al-Qaeda is these terrorists from ISIS. The small extremist franchises that you are outlining in your post, may start using the big brand terrorist name, such as the ISIS. This is the utmost critical threat that Pakistan faces besides India. So your law enforcement agencies need to do their best to take out the terrorism and capture these extremists very quickly before they join the "brand". It'll become very dangerous to stop their activities later as there are many crazies hoping for a terrorist sponsored "Caliphate" to start to exist. Your PM made a very important statement the other day that "the Guns ONLY belongs to law enforcement and government services". Not to crazy extremists. So I hope these terrorist outfit business can be brought to an end or curb down to an extreme minimum.
