Several Pakistani entities are raising their voices against the Taliban on Facebook.
"The women of Pakistan hate Taliban" is one of the groups that are raising its voice against the Taliban-instituted system of gender apartheid. "Under Taliban rule women have been stripped of their visibility, voice, and mobility," wrote Syed Ali Raza, the creator of the group. "We hate the bombs going off. We hate how they think they own Pakistan and we hate the fact the whole world thinks we support them. For the sake of our freedom and peace we want them out of Pakistan. Join the group. Invite your friends to show the world we want assault rifle brandishing militants out!" read Raza's message.
"No place in Pakistan for the Taliban. Let's get them out" is yet another group floated by Ahmed Wahla. "Rise up fellow Pakistanis. Don't forget the principles on which our country was founded upon. Write to newspapers, come on news channels, and do everything and anything to make your voices heard. Let's let these Taliban know that Pakistan is united against them.
"My message to you all is of hope, courage and confidence. Let us mobilise all our resources in a systematic and organised way and tackle the grave issues that confront us with grim determination and discipline worthy of a great nation," wrote Wahla.
