People who are to blame for this disaster and for bringing Pakistan to a point where it is becoming increasingly difficult for the country to stay steady are now proposing a national government in which everyone would have a say and try to tackle Pakistan's problems.

Pakistan had always supported and continued to lead international efforts for building bridges between cultures and civilizations. The international community must ensure to implement this landmark resolution to combat Islamophobia.
