MQM wont allow drone hits if empowered: Altaf

KARACHI - Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) Chief Altaf Hussain on Friday offered the Pakistani govt and Army that one million volunteers of MQM are ready to sacrifice their lives along with the Pakistani soldiers to fight against the big powers to stop the drone attacks on Pakistani soil. Addressing a large gathering at Jinnah Ground to mark the 27th foundation day of MQM, by telephone from London, he said that if his party comes in power, it will be mandatory training of one year for every Pakistan (man and woman) and then we will see, who attacks the country. He demanded of the American govt to grant the Diyat blood compensation to the victims of drone attacks. He said that if the 98 percent oppressed people of the country want to make Pakistan as a sovereign, independent and honourable state, they should promote the honest and loyal leadership to bring out the country out of the slavery of big powers. Altaf said that they will not accept the supremacy of any country including America saying that they would make Pakistan a sovereign and independent country and sever ties with IMF. He appealed to the heads of Armed Forces, intelligence agencies and security forces to resolve the issue of Balochistan and immediately stop the operation in the province.
