Pakistan and Future

It is amusing reading and hearing the so-called analysts on the current political developments in Punjab. I actually believe that most of these “political and defence analysts” are nothing but establishment’s agents against democracy.  

In the last article I said that there is nothing wrong with the political maneuvers by both parties in order to gain more space. Asif Zardari tried to take the advantage of the DOGar court’s decision to get a PPP government in Punjab, and Nawaz Sharif making sure (by taking the people to street) that Asif Zardari “PAY THE RIGHT PRICE” for his “inexperience”. Now these are simple political moves by two politicians , part and parcel of democracy (We can write 100’s pages of articles why these agitation SOMETIMES turn violent in SOUTH ASIA, why some youth would like to smash the ATM machines or why some middle aged middle class men would try to burn the cars…. all this happens in South Asia not only Pakistan but in Bangla Desh , Nepal , Sri Lanka and India yes India “the largest democracy in the world”). 

As I said problem is not with “Zardari’s DICTATORSHIP” to overthrow Shehbaz Sharif’s government in Punjab , neither is there any problem with “the politics of agitation” of Sharif’s brothers. Problem is with the establishment (military mafia) in Pakistan , which is not only waiting like a cunning fox to overthrow the democratic governments of both Center and Punjab but also sowing the seeds of hatred amongst different sections of society.  The “analysts” of establishment are working overtime these days to prove how “politicians are incapable of ruling the country“.

I will pick only two examples from the media (I am deliberately not picking the examples of KNOWN establishment’s writers , but the ones who are considered “Democrats” and “Liberals”). 

The first example is of a so called “analyst” cum compere Talat Hussain (these days he is on Aaj TV) , in the recent episode of  “Live with Talat” on 26th February. During the program he said :

If a dictator decides to impose martial law now than it will be the faults of these politicians.

No Sir , it will always be the fault of the dictator , his lust for power and his naked agression against the people of Pakistan.

Second example is more interesting it is from “DR.” Hassan Askari ’s article in “The Daily Times” , this one is full of establishment’s myths about democracy. Let me share with you few of his quotes.

Pakistan’s current transition to democracy cannot succeed without active cooperation between the PPP and the PMLN within the constitutional framework. 

Time is fast running out for the PPP and the PMLN. 

This strategy may create a situation where democracy suffers a major setback and both the PPP and the PMLN lose.

Now tell me why “democracy can not succeed” , why “time is fast running out” , and what “major setback democracy can suffer” , Dear Dr. you can not make democracy succeed by putting gun on the heads of politicians and ask them to play according to the rules using the terms like “constitutional framework” that sounds to good to ear.  And remember whenever a dictator overthrows democracy it is only HIS FAULT , and no fault of any politician or people of Pakistan.
