#1 I think I've found the problem...

Karachi citizens give their views on India's Mumbai accusations

Amin, street vendor: India is totally wrong in making these accusations. It always does this, even though they find out later someone else is involved. This is very wrong. If there is some evidence, then they should take action against the Jamaat-ud-Dawa. But there has to be strong evidence.

Shaghi, housewife: They are just making things up. It's not like that. They are responsible for the attacks themselves. As far as Dawa is concerned, they should have a conference and get together and talk things over. Otherwise, this will never end.

Habibullah Ansari, businessman: Indian accusations go back a long way. Whenever something like this happens, the Indians blame Pakistan. It is actually a result of their own brutalities. Now, they are all using it because of the upcoming elections. We should not comply, until and unless they provide hard evidence. And then the people should be arrested and tried under Pakistani law.

Faisal, student:This is our own weakness. What can we say? We ourselves have been a victim of terrorism. But if it's happening in India, or elsewhere, Muslims are blamed. This is due to differences between ourselves. Until Muslims get united, this will continue. India has to provide strong evidence before asking Pakistan to act.

Iffat Ashar, housewife: We don't believe Pakistan is involved in these attacks. They are because of their internal situation. They are just accusing Pakistan. I think Pakistan's image is like this in the world - whenever something like this happens, Pakistan is automatically blamed. I don't think Pakistan will take action against Dawa. They will do what is in their interest.
