Re: burgers of karachi and their lifestyle
LI,
The burger group is relatively small but extremely influential. The Mullah Kings constitute a large part of Pakistan's population, but they have little to no recognization in the upper echelons of power at the moment. (Except in NWFP and Baluchistan) It's a fine line our Government is walking, between the demands of the progressive contingent and settling the feals of the religion oriented.
Really as Minerva noted in her excellent post, this is just a transitionary period, folks. Western countries went through similar metamorphisis around the turn of the last century. India is also going through the same phase - so are many other countries. Where this will all lead to is anyone's guess. Newton's third law is well at work. Remember, we are talking about fringe extremes here. A multicultral society sustains all types and all sorts, and that is what Karachi really is. Move to B area or any of Jamiat's strongholds and you will see the opposite for yourself.
Up here in Punjab we just sit back, relax, drink some lussi and watch the ants wrestle the bull. tis fun. :)
