The Jamaat-e-Islami party organized the sit-in demonstration in the country's largest city on Saturday, the News Agency that Dare Not be Named reported. The demonstrators called for an end to drone attacks in Pakistain, the US military presence in Afghanistan, and US influence in Pakistain. "America is dominating and whatever they want gets done. Now the country is going to launch an operation (in) North Wazoo. This sit-in protest is against the US occupation and influence and we want to get free of US slavery," said Mohammad Hussain Mehnati, who is the Jamaat-e-Islami leader in Bloody Karachi. On Friday, a US missile attack targeting a bad turban compound in the South Waziristan tribal region killed at least eight people. The strike was the ninth to be reported in Pakistain's tribal areas, which are located close to the Afghan border, since the US attack in the city of Abbottabad that allegedly killed al-Qaeda leader the late Osama bin Laden ... he's rotten though not quite forgotten... on May 2 (May 1 Washington time). The Pak parliament recently passed a resolution condemning the US attack in Abbottabad and demanding a review of ties with the US and other Western countries. The resolution also called for an independent investigation into the attack, which the parliament called a unilateral action and a violation of Pakistain's illusory sovereignty. The resolution said that if they are not halted, such attacks could have dire consequences for peace and security in the region and the world. | |
