Physician heal thyself first…

October 25th, 2007 by mubasher · No Comments

Pakistan despite being a developing country has been trying to face economic, social, geographical challenges for the last 60 years after its inception. At the same time it had to fight on different fronts either for its own survival or others but astonishingly one of my American friends has declared it the most dangerous nation (published in the leading journal of USA) in the world without considering the feelings of 160 million people majority of which is peace loving and hardworking souls who believe in fraternity and mutual cooperation. This is what my two Canadian friends expressed in the dinner I hosted for them on last Saturday at famous Food Street of Lahore.

May I dare ask my friend, who has given a sweeping statement, that has he ever seen Pakistani forces occupied the land of another country?  Did Pakistanis ever question the system of government prevalent in other countries? Did Pakistanis ever invade any country to prove its supremacy? Did Pakistanis ever use force to make people believe we are right and they are wrong? Does Pakistan have more than 20 thousand modern sophisticated air crafts? Does Pakistan have thousands of war heads to save itself from the clutches of others? Does Pakistan have numbers of air crafts carriers to take its forces to other soils? Moreover, did ever Pakistan try to explore space by leaving millions of people on earth to starve? Rationally speaking, the answer to all such questions is no. Even then it has been declared most dangerous nation of the world. I would like to remind my friend that Pakistan was dragged to Afghan War in 1979 and since then has been looking after Afghan brethren. It was Pakistan which stood firm before the majestic power like Soviet Union and had courage to support Afghan brethren. Again what happened after Afghan War? All the Allied left Pakistan in wilderness to celebrate the re-union of Europe and there happened 9/11.

In my another article, Bill or Bull, I requested policy makers of USA to consult American friends  while chalking out policy about Pakistan who I met in Plymouth, Londonderry, Manchester, Boston, Washington and on streets of USA. They are the people who gave us love and declared Pakistanis are the most loving people because they had close interaction with us.

No nation in the world is dangerous until it proves and Pakistan has not caused any threat to others rather they themselves are suffering because of others’ policies. If people are killed, they are Pakistanis and not of any other nation. For God sake let the people of the world live peacefully and there must be an end of all this killing because of the hegemonistic designs. And further, it is humbly requested that pen should be used to bring to life and not to hate life… Long live humanity. Amen
