Its all good, but criticism should not stop, calling spade a spade should continue, however we should not compare ills of current govt with previous govt and say "oh they did that too".

The inner fued and hatred displayed among each other is the weakest point of our unity and it indeed does keep us from thinking positively.
Stopping of name-calling should not be limited to "politicians" alone, it should be extended to all leadership (including army) as well as past leaders.

Who knows one day, one of us maybe in a position to lead the nation (you never know) and if any of our discussions and debates here can influence and bring the best in us, it will be as if we, as a forum and a virtual community contributed towards the brighter future of Pakistan.

My humble request to you all, is to ease on the friction and think focally. No name-calling, no mud-slinging. We should all portray to get along. Lets see if we can manage to do just that atleast thru Pakistan Defense week.

Long Live Pakistan
Point of "discussions" here is not to "influence" politicians, rather spreading awareness, hopefully it will spread to print and electronic media and someone will be able to do the right thing.

As Rebel X said we should be able to hold politicians accountable, we need to raise voice against the wrongs, may be can call the "live" TV program where they discuss politics, current affairs, write to print media about the wrongs etc. We have to participate in the progress, if we want to progress that is, otherwise we'll continue to blame the "leadership".

Pakistan Zindabad
