Just as we thought 2011 would be different, we witnessed another assassination of our Governor Punjab Mr Taseer.
Another victim of intolerance and religious extremism. I used to hate it when we were labelled as ‘extremists’ in the international media, but lets face it, we are extremists. The level of intolerance that we have developed as a nation is appalling, and the worst part is, we do not realise or accept it. After this act, the Punjabi jihadis will feel stronger than ever.
Certainly a tragic day in Pakistans history. The killing of one human is the killing of the entire mankind.
