Going for peace (II)

Letter October 23, 2013
Social injustice cannot create a right of centre movement or religiosity — real or fake.

ADDISON, ILLINOIS, USA: Lack of social justice is not the reason for militancy in Pakistan or a demand that Pakistan have a sharia-based system. Economic inequality finds expression in leftist philosophy like Marxism and Leninism — like in Latin America and India. Social injustice cannot create a right of centre movement or religiosity — real or fake.
