Jamia Hafsa is a madrassa for women (thus "Talibat" rather than "Taliban"), and damn are they fundo. Clad in big black burqas, they seem to be extremely obsessed with extremely self-flaggelating prayers to God. . I'm glad to see Pakistanis getting upset with Hafsa's victimization complex. I'm not going to sit here and translate the Urdu, but the basic gist is: God, we are defensless and weak, so please take actions against "them" (apparently the word "them" covers all of Hafsa's enemies). Yeah Talibat, real defenseless, when you can beat up old ladies and make them read pre-planned confessions. That kid the video shows with the headband around his head, the headband says: Shariah or Martyrdom. That is sick. The speaker's basic argument is that since Pakistan was "founded for Islam" why doesn't Pakistan apply Islamic Law? Well, genius, for starters, Pakistan was founded as a nation for "Muslims" but there was no guarantee or movement that it would be run under Islamic Law. Those founders of the country understood this one little concept, that a Muslim can live quite happily under a non-Shariah system. In fact, the word "God" didn't even make it into the Pakistani constitution until 1956, almost eight years after the founding of the country. For God's sake, Jinnah, the founder of the nation, was an Ismaili Khoja (a group of people whom these Talibat would kill for being a heretic). So, what is the solution to these Muslim Ninjas? :
Pakistan produces the most internet searches for the world's pornography. You really think all those guys would let a bunch of ninjas impose Islamic Law? Problem with the porno Pakistanis is that they don't come out and protest. That is left for the human rights activists, who have to protest not just against the fundo ninjas, .
