Change 2013

Being a Pakistani, i should have been sure by now who to support in Election 2013 as the voting is hours away. However, i have my reasons to be undecided yet. I am all confused. No one seems to be with clean hands. The only one who has not been tried yet is IK and seems a reasonable choice in this confusion, however, his so called revolution and promises, by far, sound unrealistic and need only miracles for them to happen. 90 days for elimination of corruption, sounds very unlikely, given very deep roots of corruption and wrong doings in societal setup of Pakistan.

The activities f Taliban continued. Killing, extortion, kidnapping, suicide bombings are all the same, nothing has changed. Now some people are saying that they should be given time but I am with the view that the matter is so sensitive that Pakistan could lose and lose fast. The agreement should ...

Deceptions All Around.

We being Pakistanis are always emotionally charged when it comes to politics, charged to the extent that any reasoning becomes beyond us. We put our loyalties and hatred to a specific political leadership and accept them wholesomely. Once we decide to like or dislike a political leadership, we make them somehow divine creatures. A leader is an angel and the reset demons,  One is saint and all others sinners. We even start living on polars and make it our mission to defend and attack, depends who is who with our hearts and souls. Imran Khan, when stepped into Pakistani politics, it was felt that he is a fresh change in long running two party political game. He did take his time building his reputation as a brave, man of principals sort. Everyone thought he is that chosen one who would bring about positive and constructive change in Pakistani Politics. He stood firm on his principals for some time.  But once he gained the position of political divinity among consid...
