Pakistan is a much more Complex Society than what we believe.
We have lawyers who took out a march to save Judiciary;offer prayers for a terrorist.
We have religious Fundamentalists,some hawkish media.
We also see balanced media(Dawn).
We hear some sensible voices on the Affairs in Pakistan with out tunnel vision.
Proud people who do not want to beg and become a vassal of the US;we have politicians running like a frightened children to the US.
Majority of people do not seem to like Terror Groups, while the Government ,Army and ISI play hide and seek with terrorists.
People need clean Government yet call a corrupt and exiled leader to lead the Country.
They want openness, while the Government signs an agreement with the US to hunt Osama, but declares it has not.
Government brags that it can meet any external threat but says it was not aware of foreign Elite Troops entering their territory deep,conduct about an hour operation ,spirit away dead bodies.
One is called the mass Leader(Z.A.Bhutto), yet hangs him.
Rich in Culture and Humane,Pakistan where are you?
People seem furious for sheltering Osama’ the Government does not know how to react
The Lahore High Court lawyers show their true fanatic and reactionary colors by actually offering funeral prayers (” Namaz-e-Janaza“) for the recently killed Al Qaida leader, Osama Bin Laden. Hundreds of lawyers attended this “funeral” and immediately afterwards there were several speeches in which the speakers vehemently condemned the US action and termed it as a clear violation of Pakistan’s sovereignty. Several speakers hailed the dead leader as a “hero” of the Muslim world and sternly warned USA that after his “martyrdom” the opposition to its hegemony would actually increase.
PTH condemns such actions from the lawyers and expresses concerns that the legal community is increasingly displaying worrisome signs by veering towards path of religous fanaticism.
