Amir,
I know its going to be futile but, here I go
Like Kamran said, you need to open your heart and eyes before you open your mouth. Plus, don't take it personally but I think apart from being articulate you do need to learn the language you are writing in, because I see a case of 'lost in translation' here.
You need to understand that no one is above debtate or criticism apart from the Prophets,. be it an Allama or an Ulema. I would advise you not to try mixing people's faith with their being follower of the movement for Pakistan. This is for a fact that none of the Islamic parties per se were in favour of Pakistan, partly due to their vision of 'Islam has no boundries' and more so because they despised the Secular Jinnah.
It is also true that once Pakistan was conceived they got on to the bandwagon and then laid claim to the country as if it was their personal 'Jaggir' I am sorry if I have shattered any of yor pre-concieved notions or your belief system for that matter but these are bitter truths.
Ofcourse you are entitiled to your opinion, but please give way for others as well. Islam is not about being narrow minded on any thing.
