Mercy Mr. President, please forgive us for not being moderate and liberal Muslims. Even if we want to be we are unable to do so. Simply we are not of that type. We can’t have dogs in our bedrooms and won’t tolerate our girls to have mixed parties start at a bar and end up in a bedroom.
Under your courageous leadership some of us have enjoyed all the luxuries of life either it was to have prestigious credit cards in our pockets or drive the new cars or to have parties full of drinks and chicks.
But mercy Mr. President that part does not represent the country you are leading. We still have a strong family system and a community knitted together where elders and women have special place. Yes, we do accept we are fundamentalists, fundamentalists who love their fundamental identity. There might be misunderstanding and misinpakistanterpretation about Islam from inward and outwards but still we are Muslims.
Merci Mr. President to those who know nothing about vast benefits of moderate Islam. They know only madrasaas where they go and generally learn to respect elders, women and trust other Muslims. These fundamentalists do not ask for bribe to offer their help.
Merci Mr. President we can’t be liberal to have mixed madrasaas. We can’t start our Friday prayers with music and have smart nuns assisting our imams (even if they support the idea). If all this irritates you and make you feel pity on us and our fundamental approach and dark future then please mercy Mr. President and leave us. Please don’t misunderstand, you are simply not chosen!

Return of the President!
President Musharraf once again proved that he is able to survive many more attacks. Just at the brink of loosing all the international support after dismissing the Chief Justice he returned to arena. This has not been a simple return but it is a tremendous return.
He would have never been able to achieve it had it not been supported by Lal Masjid Maulanas. Both brothers proved to be sincere supporter of Musharraf. Although they were always keeping him in spot light by their actions but no one could have imagined that they can go this much far in his support. They willingly had innocent people killed.
Message to out side is clear, 'there is a realistic threat from Islamic extremists and only president has ability to tackle it'.
Thank you Lal Masjid! you gave a new life to president on the brink of falling.
The people of Pakistan can never understand (or they are not allowed to do so) the difference between State and Government. Demolition of ministry buildings or burning of transport vehicles is a loss to State which prepares infrastructure to serve people but on the other hand Government gets no harm if those structures are damaged.
If one goes through speeches of Mohammad Ali Jinnah it can be noticed that he clearly stated differences between State's and Government's role.. but who bothers?
