| What did you give us except more death? Shia leader asks Pak army chief Kayani |
| 2013-01-11 |
| In a rare challenge, a Shia Muslim leader publicly criticised Pakistani military chief General Ashfaq Kayani over security in the country on Friday after bombings targeting the minority sect killed 118 people. The criticism of Kayani, arguably the most powerful man in the South Asian state, highlighted Shia frustrations with Pakistan's failure to contain Sunni Muslim militant groups who have vowed to wipe out Shias. "I ask the army chief: What have you done with these extra three years you got (in office)? What did you give us except more death?" Maulana Amin Shaheedi, who heads a national council of Shia organisations, told a news conference. |

| #1 Whom told Shaheedi that the Pak Army was trying to contain the violence agz local Shias - dats N-O-T what I'm reading on the MilBlogs. Pakistan = Baby Assad in Syria = may officially be Rising Iran's BFF, but in reality they fear Iranian + Shia domination. IRONY > SECTARIAN-RIDDEN, NUKE-ARMED SUNNI PAKISTAN FEARS DOMINATION-IFF-NOT-TAKEOVER BY THE NON NUKE-ARMED BUT UNIFIED SHIA STATE OF IRAN. |
