Don't see the need to bring religion into the discussion. The "huge impact on regional peace and security" has been from the refusal of Israel's enemies to accept Israel; in refusing, truth has been turned upside down, logic distorted, and injustice promoted, for there is no other way to maintain the non-acceptance of Israel otherwise. Flip it around and there will be room for human minds to return to sane functioning. That's why the sooner Pakistan engages in open and friendly relations with Israel the better. Not for Israel's needs but for Pakistan's own.
That's been true for over 2,500 years. But that doesn't mean distant neighbors have to support Israel's enemies or that it's morally correct - even by their own professed standards - for them to do so.
Where are the Pakistanis willing to stand between the Salman Taseers and their bodyguard-assassins? Until then - until there are brave men and women willing to die for truth and justice rather than the pretense of it - Pakistan's media cannot truly be free, can it?
