Dears,
In my view, actually people were concentrating on discussion and not on the backstage. Even I viewed both sessions of this programme on 14 and 15 August but could not pick this point. I have no doubt to beleive that muslims of any country cannot have the pro-jew school of thought and as such no body should deliberatly change the star or anyother sign of his own nation's flag.
I dont exactly know what might have happened since I am not the witness of any such jewish sign but, still, inadvertent mistakes are not to be punished. This has ever been a basic human law. Even inadvertent murders are forgiven on this basis. The question would be of accepting it or not accepting it as an inadvertent act.
There is also another problem for us. This pertains to our pre-set minds based upon suspecious thoughts and doubted strategies. This is not only confined to Pakistan but also to so many other people around us in this global village. If some one has watched the inidan movie "GHULAM-E-MUSTAFA" he/she must remember a scene where the character Ghulam-e-Mustafa called the son of a Hindu as "VIKRAM" and at that very moment this name sounded to the hindu mother of VIKRAM as "AKRAM". And she became extremely worried that Ghulam-e-Mustafa is endeavoring to convert her son VIKRAM into AKRAM by preaching him Islam. I always cant help laughing when I see this scene.
So, there might be some issue of the same nature while evaluating the star on the backstage of programme hosted by Dr. Shahid Masood and Barkha Dutt on Geo Channel.
However, I must say that there could either be a possibility of mis-judging the star by some viewrs or some inadvertent act from hosting people. But in my view one needs not to portray any jewish sign on Pakistan's flag. We cant blame any one's intentions while he/she is a pakistani as well as muslim.
If anything has happened inadvertently, we hope it should not happen in future.
However, considering it to be some possible mistake on any end, I think there is no need to call for such a strict forgiveness.
Some of you might have also noticed the color of Pakistani flag on some newly printed currency note as red or maroon. This appears to be a turkish flag. Still, SBP has not taken any action to amend it.
Best regards,
Kamran.
