Dears,
During a few days of this week, two or three incidents have taken place. 32 have been killed in bomb attack at D I Khan on a hospital, while 70 plus have lost their precious lives at Wah Cantt due to bomb blasts.
I wonder no one speaks against such actions. I wonder to see insignificant reaction of our nation at large against such incidents. This reaction is dead-dog's attitude. We are speechless against the wickedness of the criminals who are a continuous threat for the nation. We feel that speaking against them is a taboo which will either take our lives or will ruin our religious status. How illiterate we are, how weak is our courage and how doubtful is our belief?
We are living in a country where criminal, wicked, evil, disgusting elements have all the powers to do whatever they like. Last day one of my friends came from D I Khan (he is inhabitant of D.I.KHAN). He told us such sort of facts that we don't even wish to hear. Among 32 killed, 16 belonged to same family by some sort of relations. As per his information such blast was mainly purposed to hit that family. He discussed the attitude and ill-doings of Mahsood tribal people living around them. He was personally caught up of fears and whims. He said, he is seeing some work at Islamabad and would shortly sell out all his properties in D I Khan, because if he will not do this, the criminals can anytime take unlawful possession. Having tears in his eyes he told "once we had to migrate from India and now we are bound to migrate from D I Khan". Kiyaa Bey Basi hai. What the hell is this? Where we are living?
He also told us a story of kidnapping of his nephew (who is engineer in Warid) while doing official survey at District Bannu. His nephew (along with two other colleagues) was kidnapped from Bannu and they kept on being sold and purchased by different militant groups. My friend told us that the demand was Rs. 20 million for each of the kidnapped person by the ultimate buyer kidnappers who appeared to be a group of Para-Chanar. How they managed to relieve those guys is a long painful story.
Hundreds of such stories are there which are created by such militant groups who call themselves Taliban. No one speaks against it. We are dead inside. Our interiors have been locked up. I wonder how we cry for Dr. Afiya Siddiqui while we never cried on seeing number of people dieing for the bomb blasts done by such Talibanized groups. We never agitated for number of kidnaps planned and executed by such militants. We never speak in favor of the families who have been forced to leave their residences. We never speak against the fear which is causing every educated Pakistani to look for some jobs out of the country by writing on their CVs the reason of such job search as "TO WORK AT A SAFE PLACE AND SECURE ENVRONMENT". This is to cause a brain drain in Pakistan. We use to cry for the death of the criminal militants and show our association with them by singing poems and raising slogans but we never cry on the dead bodies of the infants, children, women and innocent citizens.
I don't know where this Talibanization will lead the nation to. However, I can look into the future of Pakistan that will one day not be different than Iraq and Afghanistan. I had been saying and I am still saying, if this would happen, this would primarily be the crime of those militants who are doing such wild things against the innocent citizens of their country and indirectly causing the external forces to invade with a so-called intention to break their necks. The second responsibility would be of the nation/public who like cows and buffalos has become habitual of eating out the green fodder and sleeping in the cages all the life time.
May God give us courage, fortitude and wisdom to fight back the dark aged mind-set.
Regards,
KAMRAN.
