Being able to read about events from people that are on the ground as it happens is why the internet has some good to it.
There have a lot being discussed and shared among the three metblogs of Pakistan (’Lahore’, ‘Karachi’ and aboveall ‘Islamabad’). The way Government of Pakistan seems to handle the issue is wise and commendable. There could have been quite a bloodshed which was saved. Plus the escape from the scene by one of the main leaders from Laal Masjid has opened the mind and changed the minds of many. He has only helped softening the severity of the situation. Hope things get there more quicker as it seems to be solving finally! ~ My thoughts for all the Peaceful Pakistanis outthere and Love!
