    Good morning@banasy@chrissy
    lol@chrissy. Assad does need to be taken out, Iran has to be invaded. Problems solved. World would at last be at peace. We need not concern ourselves with what we have done to places like Iraq, Afghanistan & Pakistan.

    Unending cycle of violence, last decade and plus written in blood, tens of thousands of innocents killed, generations to remember the death & destruction. Propaganda, hatred & fear. Legacy of the war on terror.

    Islam prohibits art, sculpture, music, and pictures. While it is difficult to express oneself, Pakistanis do have a need to express themselves just like everyone else. Pakistanis are just different and they have a different way of expressing themselves. Think of a Pakistani bomb scene as a canvas which is painted with a strong preference toward the red color.
