(MUNTAHA AZHAR, LAHORE)
I wonder how many years will it take to lift the smokescreen of terrorism, civil wars and revolutions from the massacre of Muslims. The whole Youm e Shuhada passed with no mention of jihad and Islam .Our objectives readily transforming to the protection of the mother land from the protection of Islam and its ideology. Even the national songs taught that Pakistan is merely a land to protect. Then again with what face the army has to say the words jihad and Islam when they are being consumed for the american interests ,army and government alike marching on the american policies. The negotiation and operation were the two paths that america carved for us .300 shops,100 houses destroyed in Waziristan claiming it to be the headquarters or compounds of terrorists or Taliban. Like the whole city was inhabited by them?curfews , killings, areal bombardment and using tanks in your own cities .The syrian government seems to do the same thing ,they bombard their own cities and say they are killing rebels .it is said it was a targeted operation then again the intelligence says number of casualties will be known afterwards.If it was targeted then why don't you know how many you killed? If you use the word Islam if you say Muslims you are labeled as extremists or stereotyped .Worst still people like Hafiz Saeed are left to give view points on Islamic ideology.prime minister decides to go to India on Modi invitation repeating the Musharaf's words of good relationships with India..like it is a settled thing that everyone wants good relationships...really why do we a Islamic republic want good relationship with those who burn our mosques and massacre Muslims. Just because modi is the prime minister we have to forgive,forget or you dont even consider that ,you can go and easily stand with that modi...yuck!! The tahafuze pakistan bill , and it is the first one and the counting does not seem to be finite from here.What is nawaz shareef a new kind of dictator??? We want peace,freedom in Pakistan ,our right of self determination is been crippled by the american policies ,zero deterrence and letting down our interests and identity for the fear or excuse called "for the sake of national security " Pakistan lost its sovereignty when it gave way to america into afghanistan .However,If situation like these will continue we will be a colonial state in less then 5 years,and worst still i doubt we ever will wonder how we get here!!!
