I am dead against the Prime Minister of Pakistan to consult political parties on what action to be taken against militants and terrorists the same way as I am against President of America to consult Senate and Congress to decide what action to be taken against Syria for use of chemical agents prohibited by world communities. The Prime Minister of Pakistan as well as the President of America has expert advisers on what action to be taken to safeguard their nations and they have been elected with full power to defend their countries.
