Re: Begum Nusrat Bhutto dies in Dubai
Sindhi, of course, being the key word here. It’s interesting because a) you could’ve simply said feudals, as feudalism is not the preserve of Sindh alone, b) you’d think feudal mentality wasn’t any different in say, Punjab, making the Sindhi distinction unnecessary and c) since the hypocrisy and corruption of self-styled democrats is being protested, similar lists of offenses could be drawn up for the industrial and military elite of Pakistan. But that was the entire point - to comment specifically on the Sindhi Wadhera who is uniquely corrupt.
Scratch beneath the surface of any Pakistan-related discourse and you inevitably find ethnicity politics. Moral outrage is exaggerated or muted according to which province/party the offender is from. No wonder the nation can’t move forward.
