Re “Pakistanis shocked by video of Taliban flogging,” April 4

It is unacceptable that atrocities continue to be committed by the Pakistani Taliban. President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Yusaf Raza Gillani must take strong actions against the perpetrators.

It is even more shocking that a religious scholar has endorsed such behavior on national television. It is unfortunate that the Taliban and the mullahs have taken Muslims back to an age of ignorance.

The prophet Muhammad was appointed by God to raise the status of mankind, but the extremists refuse to follow in his footsteps.
