How interesting, so from now on our troops will have to inform terrorists for their movements, in our own country?!
That is expected from them, after all Fazlullah is Sufi's son in law.
They will always side with each other.
To Sufi his son in law's cause is 100% right but only the approach is a bit too violent.
The Sharia (Islamic law) does not force people to wear turbans, keep beards, keep their shalwar above the ankles, keep their women confined in their homes.
It is absolutely rubbish to associate this with true Islam.
Islam is about equality, justice, decency and reform of society in a positive manner. Even Saudi's (hardcore Wahabi) have much more tolerance than what has been reflected by Taliban's approach.
This shall only be counterproductive as majority of people are now associating this with Islam and shall be driven away from the dream of living by the true Islamic code.
The tableeghi Jamaat in Pakistan and world over spreads the message of Islam without any violence and their results are evident to all those familiar with their work. This supports the idea that violence can never help bring a positive change whereas decency,logic and patient teaching can bring about a miraculous change
The people have to be reformed in a positive way to believe in equality, justice, decency and to demand these things from their representatives, be it their elders, politicians, clerics etc.
To me it seems that Taliban have a very superficial idea of what Islamic law really is and no way will they have it implemented unless their kinsman are appointed in the Sharia courts.The local populace has many grievances against the Taliban and if justice is served then Taliban will also have to be hanged/flogged/imprisoned for their crimes.
If the justice system was good in our country then such elements could not have claimed any support. Islam is all about justice and in this sense we are very far away from Islam and its core values.
If i look at it from this perspective then many western countries are closer to Islam than us (justice, equality, merit etc.).
