#1 Yet the Maulana's illegal FM station continues to broadcast.

A single laser guided bomb would have taken care of this station.

#2 stopping the media from criticizing the head of the state, military or judiciary or showing bodies of the suicide bombers or their victims.

The ordinance says, that private channels would not be able to broadcast video footage of suicide bombers, terrorists, bodies of victims of terrorism, statements and pronouncements of militants and extremist elements and any other act which may, in any way, promote, aid or abet terrorists activities or terrorism.
(Snip)
Under the new powers to PEMRA, channels would not broadcast any programme inciting violence or hatred or any action prejudicial to maintenance of law and order.

I like it, we need a similar law here, drive the final nail in Moonbat Media.

John, much has been made of the Perv's military foray defeats into Paks's Tribal Areas.

Has the Pak Army with all their assets and manpower been holding back as I suspect when conducting Mil-Ops against the Islamo-Rustics, Or has he and the General Staff lost support, ie command and control over the rank and file of his own Army?

#4 Perv has been holding back.

The scruffy looking fellows being captured are not regular Pak army. They are paramilitary troops recruited from the local areas, poorly equipped and trained.

The actual Pak army units that are trained and equipped to fight are on the border with India.
Perv has not moved them.

The Paks haven't even used a small fraction of the artillery and airpower they have.

When first line Pak troops actually engage with the Taliban, we'll know Perv is serious.
