I don't know why Pakistani's are so sensitive about criticism - even from their own citizens. In almost every other democratic country one can openly criticize their government, army or any institution.
I know its out of context, but you're the ones who gave us the phrase:
zamana hum se hai, hum zamane sai nahin !
The point being every person is independent and free to express themselves openly (within the law of course). You have blasphemy laws to protect your supreme authority - there is no reason to protect any other human being from criticism.
At least journalists are accountable; their words are out in the open so if they lie you can take them to court. Can you say the same for all the ridiculous propaganda spewed in mosques and behind closed doors everywhere?
In an honest society, people will make their point openly and take the criticism for it (as all journalist do). Only dishonest people are afraid to make their views open and subject to scrutiny.
