Why Jihad must remain in the Pakistani school curriculum
Editorial in the Nation
"If modernising the educational system means excluding jihad from the curriculum, then the US must understand that it is asking Pakistan to negate a basic concept of Islam that has also been part of the motto of the Pakistan Army since Independence"
"extremism in Pakistan would automatically come to an end if the West stopped action against Muslims. This is a reminder to the USA that extremism can only be eradicated by focussing on its underlying causes and just resolutions of the political disputes that lie at its root."
