We have only ourselves to blame for the mess that we find ourselves in.
KARACHI: The great leap backwards was when religious barbarians forced Pakistan’s name to be altered by the addition of the term ‘Islamic’. That day, Jinnah’s dream died. When we allow religion to dictate how the government is to run its affairs we hand over power to the mullahs. Hence, we have only ourselves to blame for the mess that we find ourselves in.
