Old habits die hard, as the saying goes. Actually those of us who are old enough to remember him as a fast bowler and later as the captain of the Pakistan cricket team, know all too well about his stubbornness, and arrogance. And than he is a Pashtoon too. You may have herd 'Zameen jumbad, na jumbad, Gul Mohammed', The earth can be moved, but not Gul Mohammed. Somehow he got into this understanding that whatever bad is happening in Pakistan, it is a result of US intervention in Afghanistan. It is not that he is totally wrong, but he is giving lot more credit to US than she actually deserves. There is also an element of ethnic and racial bias here; he feels that HIS brethren (Afghan/Pakistani pashtoons) are being killed in a war that was waged by the US. Now I don't have to tell you, but when a person starts thinking along such lines, and view things through ethnic/racial perspective, than it is very difficult to reason with him.Has He EVER... EVER given a thought to a "possibility" that he can be wrong?
If I may add, same is the problem with Saleem Safi, though otherwise, he is known to be an educated person. Same is also true for Fazal ur Rahman, Sami ul Haq etc.
You are absolutely right my friend. Baat to sach hey magar baat hey ruswai ki.the day we had to see when those who took arms against the state are being mourned, praised and looked up to as ones who will decide our fate (Hakim Ullah, Abdul Aziz or Red Mosque) and those who fought them are either killed or under arrest & facing treason charges(and condemned / mocked by Talibanized media & Abdul Aziz)
this government and the Judiciary has a very skewed view about who is a traitor and who is a hero & "brother"
no , these crooked fellowmen of ours, they wont feel anything at all!thinking loud to my self (no need to ask the hypocrites)
were these women conducting Drone strikes? were they getting paid by Americans to fight the Taliban?
how much of an arsehole, stubborn b@stard and cold hearted with tar for blood one would have to justify this murder and shamelessly change the subject.
a good population of my countrymen shed tears for terrorist Afia sadique who is so central to Al Qaeda that even in Africa when Al Shahab (an Al Qaeda offshoot) abducted workers at an oil rig, they demanded her release....
then the picture of her malnourished and exhausted face is used to fan hatred but compare it to the nameless child, girls and women mercilessly gunned down, executed, blown up, sprayed acid, raped and mutilated (in Sawat) ... do my Fellow "Muslims" of Pakistan have any "Islam" left these nameless victims or is it only reserved for those who glorify killing fellow Muslims?
, yes I ordered the action because it was the matter of law and order, and if I were given a chance, I would do the same. He should not be defensive here, but if he doesn't show the courage and tries to escape by putting the blame on others, than it happens what is happening now.
