17 Point Deal between TNSM and Government in Swat

Over the days a lot will be said and written about these 17 points. ‘Liberal’ people are going to create a havoc about these points and will continue their berate against Ulema and Mullahs. I don’t see anything wrong in this. And I sure hope that these and other points, especially, Islamic Economic System, are implemented in the rest of the country as well. I pray that the fighting stops and peace is restored in Swat. Ameen.

17 Points copy and pasted from Daily Dawn 4th March 2009
