PAK-KASAB 2 LAST

"If delusions of grandeur like the one Yusuf Kasab
seemed to have been suffering from is a madness, then the
blasphemy accusation is the tool used by an opposing insanity
to cure a madness they do not like the contents of," Paracha
added.

The second Kasab, Sher Muhammad, was notorious for the
number of beheadings and cold-blooded slaughter of dozens of
Pakistani security men and infidels that he undertook.

"Done in the name of religion, this, at best, can be
defined as the extreme condition of the faith-based social
psychosis that had been developing in the country for the last
30 years," Paracha wrote.

"He is beyond detoxification. He must be used to reign
in similar mad men that, fortunately, are now on the run due
to the army's and the government's recent operations in Swat
and Waziristan."

According to Paracha, the third infamous Kasab, Ajmal,
is perhaps the most vivid example of public displays of
religiosity that has gripped Pakistan. "Thus, it was rather
natural for Ajmal to become a Jackie Chan for a holier cause:
Islamic Jihad…But this one got caught," he wrote.

"There are still numerous Ajmal Kasabs frequenting
mosques, madrassas and martial arts training schools in the
Punjab, caught between what they see in action-packed
Bollywood and Hollywood blockbusters and what they hear from
crackpots that masquerade as imams, maulvis and 'scholars',"
Paracha concluded. PTI RHL
