The Noble ‘Servant’ of Peshawar
By Shaheen Buneri:
Khurshid Khan, an eminent 60-year-old lawyer and deputy attorney general of Pakistan, wants to “heal the wounds” of the terror-stricken minority Sikh community in that country.
So he does an extraordinary thing at a gurdwara in the northwestern city of Peshawar.
Every day when he completes his work as a legal expert, Khan visits a Sikh gurdwara in the center of the city, wraps a piece of cloth around his head to cover it and thus show his respect, and sits in the doorway to shine the shoes of Sikhs, whose community has come under frequent attack by Taliban militants over the last few years.Click here to read full article.

[...] The Noble ‘Servant’ of Peshawar [...]
Pakistanis can never heal the wounds of the sikh (or the hindu) community by polishing a few shoes. The sikhs need to be given back their homeland which has been usurped or snatched by the agents and quilsings of arabic imperialism and of a totalitarian ideology from Makkah. Sikhism was created in the land that is now taken for Pakistan by the quilsings of islamic imperialism coming from from Makkah. The sikhs must get back their land.
Was it not Pakistan that used sikhs to kill hindus in indian Panjab in the name of Khalistan? The word Khalistan has the same meaning as the word Pakistan. When will Pakistan admit its evil deeds against sikhs and hindus?
@hiob,
You blame Pakistan for not treating the minorities well – well, I will post a list of groups of armed secessionist groups and movements compiled from Indian sources, fighting for their independence from India because of Indian State Terorism launched against Indian miorities. Clean your own much before you accuse others. We know our problems and we are making efforts to redress the annoyance.

I blame not only Pakistan. But the blame on India about its failings does not have to be written in a pakistani website for pakistanis.
Furthermore Pakistan means “land of the pure – you make a higher claim to sainthood, purity and superiority than India. Pakistan was founded with the intention of being better than India in EVERY matter of human life. “We muslims are better human beings with a better religion and ideology and ideas than you dirty evil foolish hindus. When we muslims have our own state then we will prove ourselves to the whole world.” – that was your pakistani founding slogan. So naturally Pakistan will be judged more strictly.

Does Pakistan become better and solve all its problems by blaming India? On a pakistani website one has to discuss Pakistan’s problems. Not India’s.
If a man has not eaten for two days, then does his stomach get filled with food if he ridicules another man who has not eaten for one or two or three days?
So no point making a list of India’s sins and failures on a Pakistani website.
We indians write on the PTH because Pakistan is exporting islamic fascism and terror to all countries and because (most if not all)pakistani children are being systematically taught to hate India and hindus by their parents, teachers and pakistani politicians and journalists. >>Otherwise we indians would have ignored Pakistan.<< Pakistan (this islamically decrepit nation and state) has no role in the lives of non-muslims except when Pakistan sends (islamically caused or instigated) terror, hate, violence and fascism into India and the world. Pakistan has nothing else to give to the world except islamic fascism and terror and arrogance and lies.
