Re: Who are really Racist in Pakistan?
MQM is not just a racist party, MQM is a terrorist party. MQM has killed more urdu speaking ppl then all other ethnicities combined. This group needs to be disbanded, altaf dragged in chains through streets of karachi and executed along with his pals. The creators and benefactors should be pimp slapped around as well.
I know you have been hurt by MQM personally and I pray that Allah give your uncle a place in heaven.
Here is my argument, when you say MQM has killed more urdu speaking people than any other. I get a feeling that you are neglecting what Mullah and other ethnic tribal leaders have done in the city of Peshawar. They are litteraly killing each other indiscriminatly. Moreover, PPP and PML (N) group have not done us any favor. PPP has supervised the division of Pakistan and Nawaz who is a mini-me of Zia, has run one of the most corrupt, racist and self-serving administration ever.
Let me try to make it personal. I have lived in Karachi and in a area where MQM, Shia , Sunni were present. This is '96 I am talking about. There was violence every where, I do not know how many times I escaped death just by going school or standing at the corner of street on Friday evening. It is not just the power and people with seats who were affected by voilence in our country. Middle class and poor people went through literal hell. I still remember the day when I was coming from local shop and met this guy from our gali said Hi to him and next morning saw his picture on front page of Jang. He was shot 64 times just after I left.
It is something that as a generation we have went through. I do not think all of it was because of MQM. It is something we have lived most of the lives and sad part is there is no end to it.
To say this party or person's end can bring ease to tension is a very simplistic view, IMO. I believe that it is something that every member of society have to think in a sense what is Pakistan going to achieve from it. All of these parties are self-serving and their supporters believe and know from fact that only this affiliation can bring security and food on their plate. My argument is, if MQM is a terrorist party than they would not have this many supporters who work for pennies a day. If all MMA are killers than they would not win so many votes despite government and Superpowers being against them. If we are looking for easy answer to the violence and discrimnation in Pakistan, than there are none.
