Security threat
With reference to your
editorial “Security threat” (December 22). Sometimes it seems that we can never
win the war against terrorists when we hear that the Sindh Chief Minister wants
to buy another helicopter worth Rs. 1.6 billion for his personal use. Or when
we see six police vehicles standing outside the houses of provincial ministers
in Karachi’s DHA; and when we see police mobile vans with women and children shopping
in Sunday Bazaar. If our leaders believe that the entire security budget should
be spent only on protecting themselves and not the ordinary people, we may as
well hand the country over to the Taliban.
