Then is that really a Pakistan issue or the Pakistani-Mohajir or whomever you call on, issue?
My simple question is this, fine your grand parents moved and migrated. But you did not. So why are you so stuck in the past that you cannot fathom the present and see the future? It's been 67 years god dammit.
It is true that MQM has slept in bed with everyone, including the PPP. But you yourself know that their tactics had been limited to the few seats in the Sindh Assembly and a couple more in NA. I mean, how is it that a 30 year old party finds itself only in Karachi and Hyderabad? and no one else seems to give a single damn...not the Punjabis or Pathans or Balochis or even the Sindhis of the interior.
The issue is, we know very well the mafia culture they brought in. Their extortion collection is better organized than the tax collection of FBR. Their intelligence of the neighborhood is better than ISI operating in the neighborhood of Pakistan. So clearly, it is a systematic setup like no other. But here is the thing, in order to deal with the thugs, you have to be a thug yourself.
Business community in Karachi is actually having a sigh of relief since the Rangers operation began....but more specifically, the operation targeted mostly MQM...right? So why does an operation against MQM lead to a better peace in the city? it happened in the 1990s as well, so that is a two out of two instances.......clearly not the usual 'correlation does not mean causation' type scenarios.
It is only after AH had introduced the thuggery in his ranks that likes of TTP/JI/PPP started doing the same.
Oscar, if you are caught stealing/murdering in the united states of America, do you play the discrimination against Pakistanis card....discrimination against the Muslims card....discrimination against Punjabi/Mohajir (whatever you associate with)....or do you simply acknowledge that what you did was wrong?
Isaac Newton, lived during the time of jahiliat in Europe, yet he made some remarkable discoveries. He was once asked, or as they say, how were you able to think all of this? And Newton replied....'if i have seen further than the others is because i have stood on the shoulders of giants.'
AH clearly isn't one of those Giants.....well physically maybe.
And in those 67 years the rest of Pakistan has not gotten over the fact that these people are essentially Pakistanis. They are either accused of being Indians, land usupers, mohajirs and what not. At the same time, these people were willing to tolerate the MQM and its tactics because it benefitted them. You would have had to live in the MQM areas to see the cult like status it had/has... it does soo by behaving like the mafia and takes care of its own. The result is that support base that doesnt go.
For 65 years there has been either Jaag Punjabi Jaag, or Jaag Pashtun Jaag.. or Jaag Sindhi Jaag or Jaag whatever you want. Hence these people have every right to have their own Jaags.Regardless of whether they are murderers, thieves or the lot.. they are Mohajir and hence the support will come. The same goes for all the other parties.. why the heck does the PPP , PML(N) or any other person have support? Or are their sins washed by milk?
Since no other alternative emerged to end any Jaags and the PTI has failed at its very own opportunity to end this scenario.. which leaves nothing else except the military...to which many are running to now again.
