Is Pakistan a feeble country or not? Cant Pakistan defend her boundaries and nation? Doesnt Pakistan have resources to build herself up? These are the questions that need to be answered.
The case of Raymond Davis, a CIA agent, is a burning issue nowadays. Raymond Davis gunned two people down in Lahore. After his arrest, the US started exertions for his diplomatic immunity. America is playing a dangerous game in Pakistan.
In the present situation, the role of Pakistani government is very important because on the one hand Pakistani opposition parties are protesting against the US interference and demanding execution of Davis, on the other hand the US is threatening the government.
It is said that think twice before you speak, so why doesnt US government recall its behaviour with Pakistani people before demanding the release of Davis? An ex-ambassador from Pakistan, Muhammad Younis Qureshi who was returning home from New York consulate was abducted by FBI officials without any crimes. He was detained for 33 days though he had diplomatic immunity. Not only the FBI officials asked him to work for them but also threatened him after his refusal.
Why this injustice with Pakistani people? Are US nationals more virtuous and noble? Do only they have human rights in the world? This is completely a racial discrimination.
This is the time for unity of a nation and a great leadership. The PPP government should take care of the emotions of Pakistani people and should not release Davis without legal course taking its turn. Pakistani nation will surely support its government if it takes steps in national interests.
