In the current times and with all the events taking place in and around Pakistan, it’s a no brainer that anti-pakistan activities are at their fullest. There is some real pondering to do here. We as a nation, have to look beyond our petty differences and think on a single-focal pro-Pakistan agenda.
We’re at a stage where even a nobody like Karzai has the nerve to threaten to attack a sovereign nuclear power. Pakistan has lost more lives in this War on Terror than any other country in the region. We’ve paid with our own brothers/sisters/kids’ blood to fight this war and take a stand against what deemed wrong. But yet, we’re still blamed every now and then by our very own ‘Ally’ USA of not being effective enough. The rhetoric runs so high, the skies seem short.
I believe it’s high time for Pakistanis, regardless of their difference of opinion or party-affiliations to unite. Because ladies and gentlemen! If we don’t take the steps of uniting as a nation, an unavoidable war will fall upon us which will force us to become united. We can prevent that from happening. The current situation of a divided Pakistan is open to the world like a book. Everyone is just about reading and analyzing our internal turmoil and weaknesses and taking full advantage of that.
I pray and hope that Pakistanis can unite and send a very strong signal to anyone looking upon this nation of the proud and brave that we can and will defend our land in the face of any threat. No matter how big the threat.
I do not think Karzai is capable of attacking anything. He has been embarrased in his “own” (or so he thinks) nation when Taliban fighters broke into a jail and freed over 500 Taliban fighters. Not only that, they have taken control of several villages right under the watch of Mighty NATO/US. So, it is not Karzai talking. It is a message to Pakistan via him, that we ought to expect more of the same over and over because we’re ‘oh so reliant’ on the foreign aid. I would rather starve and live with dignity. Besides Pakistan has plenty of natural resources, if utilized properly can be relied on and benefitted from in the short and long run. (Natural Gas, Coal, farming, etc..etc..).
All for one! One for All! Pakistan all the way!
We may belong to different provinces and have our differences, but we should not allow outer forces to take advantage of that and create rifts.
Just my thoughts…please add what you think.
