Operation Zarb-e-Azb | Updates, News & Discussions.

Curfew is lifted in many areas of North Wazristan
 
What is of more concern is that how many of these IDP's are actual extremists themselves disguising an escape .. or how many of the extremists lived with their families in the Waziristan region who've just dumped their weapons and left as peace loving IDP's ... at one hand this step will help reduce strain on Karachi, it will also be an impossible one to implement ..

Most journalists are reporting that Army is trying to complete the operation before Ramadan I seriously can't understand what they can achieve in that short time and how they would finish most these areas @Aeronaut

That statement is contradictory to the other statement by Nawaz Sharif that "this operation will continue till the last extremist is eradicated" .. which is contradictory to the fact that "not all extremists are in Waziristan" .. which is contradictory to the statement that "we will not allow Pakistan to be a breeding ground for terrorists"

Seriously .. some serious loopholes!

RAWALPINDI: Pakistan Army operation Zarb-e-Azb started in North Waziristan Agency (NWA) is progressing as per plan, according to the Director General Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) wing of the Pakistan Army.

All innocent civil population is safely evacuated after their detailed verification.

You may be right, but Sir, I bet you would have said the same thing last year if I had said there will be killings of Colonels and a takeover of the biggest airport in the country. Too far fetched? Not at all.

As an example, what do you think is the influence of organizations that are targeting their efforts at brainwashing educated middle class women, like Al-Huda?

I will not deny that this country and my dear countrymen have an uncanny knack for surprising me . But a breakdown of the army necessary for God-forbid end of Pakistan is still very distant and requires a level of radicalization which isn't just there today though efforts are being made , the counters are there , mate . There's a lot more to worry about yet-unkown-to-me al-Huda I believe , though I am keen on hearing what they are doing .
 
TTP Karachi commander Killed .

Karachi: Highly wanted TTP commander killed
Karachi- The rangers killed a Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) commader, Zuhair alias Salman, during a joint operation of police and the rangers in the metropolis area of Musharraf Colony. Disclosing the details, the Rangers spokesman revealed that the terrorist killed tonight, belonged the TTP Maulvi Khalid group. According to the Rangers spokesman, hand grenades and weapons including SMGs were recovered from the possession of the saboteur, who was killed in a raid in Mauripur area of Musharraf Colony.
 
As I write this now and it's being read, our valiant soldiers fight the battle of Pakistan in the most arduous of terrains. Operation Zarb-e-Azb has been launched to specifically eliminate terrorists in North Waziristan and God willing, so will it be. Our troops have never let the green flag fall!

Now, the real challenge comes forth after a month or so: at most by August, army will have secured the area, what comes then? What's the aftermath to a sparkling Zarb-e-Azb?

Our's is no kingdom or medieval warfare where we are to capture and annex lands. Swat is a prime example, even after years of a successful military operation, army stays there to hold the area as if it were a captured enemy territory! In other words, the kind of success we would have wanted to see by integration of the society was elusive.

I fervently hope that Waziristan will be a different story; the federal government will be prudent enough to fill in political vacuum that's already invasive and undertake massive developments in the aftermath of operation and this ought to be swift. It should begin with hosting IDPs in a fair manner. We owe this to perpetuation of success that Zarb-e-Azb will ensue.

We belong as much to North Waziristan, as do we to Lahore.
