Random Thoughts 2

Random thoughts because pieces of jigsaw puzzle are either missing or mixed rather messed up.

Chief Justice allegedly caught bottles of alcohol on bedside of hospitalised Sharjeel Memon and laboratory results showed honey and olive samples. Whereas, two weeks after Abu Sulaiman’s (we can’t take ex PM’s name now as per PEMRA instructions and instructions of PPEMRA instructors) arrest, honourable health minister found traces of cocaine & alcohol in his urine. Imagine, someone 72 years old who not very long ago received multiple gunshots and is in constant danger of arrest or assassination, indulges in booze & crack. To believe this we will have to believe that brain is already drained from Pakistan. All we are left with is numb people, dumb leaders & duffer leaders of leaders. 

Once Mati Ullah Jan was abducted in last tenure, the whole of the western media, govts and even NGO vigils (موم بتی آنٹیز) drew significant outcry. But there is complete radio silence on human rights violation against my brothers & sisters by my brothers. A mess of proportions. What is not messy is that Mati Ullah with his dodgy ‘orientations’ has become a senior analyst and we accepted to live under New World Order.

Flipping through news channels has been made easy by current regime, they all appear to be clones of PTV. So much for free media.

For centuries, Punjab had been the hub of political prostitution and it still lives up to its reputation. Even our previous masters were totally satisfied with notables of Punjab.  Battalions of both East & West Punjab were considered ‘loyal’ to the crown.

“If we fail to improve economy within 6 months, name me Imran Niazi”. Said Imran Niazi when he was Shahbaz Sharif before assuming office. What? The deal is off. It was valid for only 6 months. Can’t call him Niazi after 15 months. Jo hukam sarkar. But if the  economy of the common man is not back on track by the end of  this calendar year, tell your puppeteers, kuch bhi nahin bachay ga. 

A soldier who speaks nonsense has been counterproductive to PTI’s cause and has turned against his own institution. Fictional Khamosh Mujahids are as silent as intergalactic dark space. Being an insider, ‘knowledge’ of the system coupled with intelligent (in evil sense) worked for him. Resultantly, a cheap product with even cheaper language became instant hit because of degenerative trends in society in general and social media in particular. Sensational cheap stuff sells fast and accrues greater revenues. 

Jinns when heard Quran said, “Indeed, we have heard an amazing Quran”. Surah Jinn, (01-72). Says a lot about how good Jinns were kept in the dark. So now you know why Pak people feel betrayed. In my forties, I feel being duped for forty years.

  

Helpful tip for the people who have to live in Pakistan - Reconcile with the status quo. Minus Abu Sulaiman hung parliament with old & new King’s Parties taking their share of the booty. Might create history by selecting first LGBT PM of the Muslim world in conformity with New World Order. Some economic relief may come after Budget. Seeing few dollars pouring in would mean normalcy. Company runs the show, long live the mad king. Long live not so mad King Sam. 

Always wondered what was wrong with Jalib, Faiz, Faraz and likes? From whom they sought freedom? What revolution did they long for? Whereas, everything was and is so perfect in this country. 

They must be taking cheap drugs. 

Lastly, awareness is double edged. Wish we were as ignorant as earlier generations, because ignorance is blessing. Wish we didn't have access to this much information. Wish we couldn't process this information. Wish we had that device which erased people's memory like the one in movie 'Men in Black' that would have lessened the misery of our countrymen/women so that instead of taking them to unknown 'heights' Men in Black Utility Trucks' would just flash that magic beam and erase their memories.
