Dear
@Waqkz ,
I just saw this at 7:20 IST.
You are labouring under a serious misapprehension. I have not, personally ignored your posts, although I have recommended to those Indians who want to learn more about Jinnah to ignore them. I had read through most of them, bar one or two, and
consciously rejected them. Your interpretation is different from that of the person I follow most closely on these matters, and whenever I have tested him with a seemingly contradictory piece of evidence, he has very convincingly and rationally bridged the gap. I do not know who Azlan Haider is, but he seems quite familiar with PTH, and in particular with the writings and analysis of YLH, and his exposition of the subject adheres so closely to that of YLH that not much daylight shows between the two.versions.
It is not that there is any personal animus against you in my mind, it is just that intellectually, I am completely aligned to YLH's interpretation, except in one or two matters, which are so intimately connected to a long-dead individual's innermost soul and value system that they cannot be tested, but must be accepted or rejected purely on the judgement of the reader.
There is no effort at presenting fairy tale stories or passing them off as historical facts, and there is also no question of our pressing bizarre and alien views on the history or ideology of Pakistan. What you believe is correct has been shown to be false by a far more forceful and eminent exponent of the matter. Therefore, I prefer to go with that version, an altogether Pakistani version, developed and presented based on concrete evidence by an array of loyal and patriotic Pakistani exponents, rather than yours.
I sincerely hope that you are not bringing me into the comments in order to somehow associate the view of Jinnah opposed to yours with hostile elements from India. That would be underhand, and I expect you to deny any such intention.
