On 9th June, 2009, the people of Peshawar witnessed yet another suicide attack; this time PC (Pearl Continental Hotel)... short time ago a CCTV fotage has been released on media. It described clearly how the operation was carried out by the terrorists. After swat offensive it was said that now the terrorist will strike the cities to pressurize the government to stop offensive against them. And just after swat offensive terrorist organizations have struck major cities like Peshawar, Lahore and Islamabad of Pakistan in very short interval.
I will describe my paper in following parts.
Moral
Efficiency
Moral: The moral of the general public and arm forces is seen high after a long time when people, major political parties (some minor religious parties are still opposing operation publically but support government in meeting rooms) and arms forces are united on a common causes that is to defeat terrorists and flush them out completely. For last 8 years it was observed that whenever where army started operation a lot of opposition was seen and also within army ranks. There were doubts that they are right in perusing military action against these local terrorist or not. But now everybody is united and has no doubts about the common goal which is defeat terrorist now or never. What has changed this mood of general public....? An American pressure????? ... No, it’s not true; Americans can only pressurize governments like they did Former President Pervez Musharaf with famous words "Either with us or against us". This forced General to take U-Turn but the people of Pakistan and vast majority even in the establishment ranks was against Pakistan’s alliance with USA. Now the point is what happened this time that the mood has changed.... It was the peace deal in swat called Nizam-e-Adl (means Justice system)Please note that western media quoted this deal as Shari a deal.. Shari a means full Islamic law, Islamic economic system, Islamic judiciary system, Islamic social system etc... Anyways when the peace deal was broken by militants it mobilized the general opinion of the public against the militants, even many were stunned by their action. Their strong supporters had even no choice just to condemn them and support government to take action against them.
Moral of the general public cannot stay much higher if the war prolongs or such bombings in cities continue. The government needs to keep up the moral of public if they really want to continue their war against terror. Avoid such incidents to happen again and again.
Efficiency: Each time we see when an important government building or any strategic location is being targeted we see its live camera recording on TV. This not only demoralize the general public also give a chance to terrorists to re-access their operation where they went wrong. When Marriott hotel was bombed, its video was aired on all TV stations.... the result they came up with new efficient strategy. They loaded some commando style guys with the van when they were attaching Rescue 15 and ISI buildings. Those guys cleared the way and escorted the bomb loaded van into the main area... this time when they attacked PC hotel Peshawar; they loaded people on a car. Each time they are reinventing their strategy and our media is helping in that sense. So I guess our media should not air such videos... till now we have observed that the terrorists are working hard on their strategies and making their attacks more efficient. The forces need to act efficiently also. How??? It is hard to stop and check every car and every person carrying some explosives with himself... this method is not efficient because we know our police well how honestly they do perform their duties and how loyal they are.... they might unseen those terrorist intentional maybe or any reasons.To me the best form of defense is to attack... our arm forces and intelligence agencies know their planning cells in Waziristan and tribal areas. If I wait for somebody indefinitely not know when he is going to attack me defiantly at time I will be lenient after some time...so arm forces should attack their locations and hit them where they are not allowing them to even think of launching their attacks in settled areas.
