It becomes more and more obvious by the year that the democratic form adopted by Pakistan is not working out.

Pakistan, over 66 years, has consistently fluffed up on what should be its national interest.

They bestowed democratic veneer to rule of feudal, tribal & business coteries whose nepotism, corruption is legendary.

The fine line between right and wrong has been obliterated due to the kind of leadership the state has suffered from.

Every non-Muslim member of the assembly had opposed the Objective Resolution, giving due warning of things to come.

Govt and its chums plead for “peace, tranquillity, stability and a tolerant and harmonious society” — a distant dream.

Policies play little role in Pakistan’s politics. It is all about individuals.

Today there exists voluntary self-censorship, inspired by persecution, prosecution, public opinion, intolerance fears.

Asking the terrorist lot ‘nicely,’ to be ‘nice’ and desist from activity was and is not a solution.

Drones are not responsible for the murder of Shias or for the daily Karachi targeted killings.
