Change

Tuesday, November 11th, 2008

Last week, many Pakistanis celebrated the ‘change’ that the American people brought to their country by voting a black man to allegedly, the most powerful office in the world, the office of the President of the United States of America. For the Americans, they are happy because they elected the better man. But what about us? What about the change we brought upon ourselves, ten months ago? Should we be happy?

And what about the fact that the better man of America wants to use any and all means to ‘put an end to terrorism’, even if it means cross-border raids into Pakistan without permission? So far only innocent civilians have died from that. And our ten-month old ‘change’ refuses to defend us. Moreover, he wants to reduce Pakistan’s army to a glorified police force. Making comments like “Pakistan doesn’t need a big army!”. Who the bloody f**k is he to decide whether we need an army or not? Why not reduce the Indian army? Hell, they are the ones wreaking havoc in Kashmir!

It’s high-time Pakistanis knocked some sense into their damn heads. Or I’ll keep on praying for another ‘dictatorship’. And a brutal one this time!
