Lose-Lose

Source: ET

All is well now. The natural order of things has been restored in the Fatherland. The interruption is over, the armistice has ended. Power completely returned to where it belonged, the journey of few miles from Islamabad to Rawalpindi has been made. Boys will be boys. And the ‘boys’ like to be in control, not merely in a supervisory capacity, but to have complete authority, to dominate and intimidate. The democratic experiment discredited. Discredited first on the streets of Model Town, Lahore, then on the television screens and now finally being turned into a cruel joke in the Red Zone in the Capital. This fight does not have protagonists; however it has a winner and will have many losers. Some will lose a lot of face, some a little less, however all of us will lose; perhaps have already lost. The last and only laugh is currently being had in “Aabpara”, sighs of relieves, smacking of lips, remarks of “what bloody idiots”. The only civilian who can possibly come out of this as a bit of a winner is DJ BUTT.

  1. Extremely brilliant Saroop Ijaz. You said what all was wanted. However I do not see any visionary Pakistani politician to undestand all this. Here all is done with personal and selfish motives. And that is the biggest reason smart “BOYS” keep on playing with the destiny of this nation. However one thing you missed. Those serriously observing these happenings have learnt some lessons. And “those” include certainly some politicians also.
