Not human...?!

A nice breeze was blowing, the weather was lovely and delicious smell of grilled kebabs and tikkas was wafting through the air, making the mouth water when suddenly my eyes fell on a young boy sitting on the darkened steps of a closed shop, crying and rubbing his eyes.

 Don't worry this isn't a scene out of some fictional drama, rather it is the reality of Pakistan that i witnessed less than 30 minutes ago!

What has this country become, heaven for some and hell for others. The great big politicians, the fancy elites don't care if 90% of the country is without electricity, water, gas or food. Would it be wrong to ask someone that how the kebab go down their throat when they see that boy crying on the stairs? Or is it not their fault and they simply missed him on those steps? I don't know what the answer is but it is definitely a lesson for everyone.

Think about this young boy when you whine the next time you aren't able to get some luxurious item, or when you make a face at some dish on your table just because you didn't like it. Think very hard the next time you waste food on your plate, or make  a face at 20 dresses hanging in your closet just because they are 2 months old.

How many times do you sit and ponder over such kids? Does it break your heart to see such scenes?

O Imam(ajtf) it is another eve of Friday and the world is still without you, the oppression is increasing. O imam(ajtf) please come soon...he heart cries for you.

Why?

Is Pakistan not a Muslim country? Was Imam Hussain(a.s) not the grandson of Holy Prophet(saww)? Did the Prophet(saww) not love him? What in the freakin hell is then the problem with people that they kill innocent people just because they love family of Holy Prophet(saww)? Since when has it become a crime?
What is wrong with the people of this nation? Why have they become dead and insensitive to the continuous atrocities? May Lanat fall for eternity on the killers and the like of them...May they rot in hell forever and ever.

Wake up people before its too late. Stand up for your rights and see whats happening. Don't close your eyes, your blood is not cheap. See what the enemy is doing! Please for heaven sake before its too late to counter the damage!

See the pictures below and think about the families who are left behind? Does your heart not cry at these images? Aren't you a little bit saddened? Or are you still going to go on with your frivolous life style, go visit expensive restaurants, spend on designer clothes, dance to Bollywood songs while your sisters and brothers in faith are killed? Are you not becoming part of oppressors as well?

Propaganda

http://www.thenews.com.pk/TodaysPrintDetail.aspx?ID=65824&Cat=4&dt=9/4/2011

After reading this above item i have been shocked at the level of propaganda. First shia are killed everyday in the country and then they are the ones that are implicated in crimes. And the funniest thing is that hezb which doesnt have any presence in Pakistan is named here.
And even funnier than that is the fact that while shia are killed everyday, some so called fictional shia group would train shia guys to look banks and create mayhem in Karachi while their brothers and sisters die in Parachinar. None of it makes any sense.

While the terrorists roam free and are freed everyday, victims are made out to be the terrorist. MashAllah at the level of justice in the country!

Pakistan Resolution-March 23 1940

On the eve of another Pakistan resolution day when we are more excited about the prospect of a holiday than pondering on what the day means i feel compelled to share my thoughts with others. Its really sad how we have forgotten the essence of what such days mean and just celebrate them for the heck of it. The biggest tragedy is that if you were to ask a kid of this generation they would fail to tell you about the meaning or significance of this day.

How ironic it is to note that the resolution which called for protection of minorities sees them being killed left and right.There is no rule of law left...the inspiration that was this resolution has been left into nothing but ashes.

What must the Quaid now feel after seeing us fall into the depths of destruction?!
Is this not a time to ask ourselves what Pakistan means to us? Where we want to see it?
Or will we go on like zombies celebrating all the important holidays meaninglessly?!
What will it take to make this nation to wake up and realize the lost dreams of Quaid?
We should just hope that when we finally wake up its not too LATE!

Adios for now fellow Pakistanis and well wishers. I hope these words wont also be mind shredded and put in that place of the brain where we habitually put all our humanity and ethical emotions that might actually make us think!

Does any one care...?!

Whereas many from the world population face the problem of obesity...create numerous diets to shed weight...spend thousands on spas and gyms...MANY are dying from hunger....if only while eating extra or throwing food in the dustbin we could remember these people...maybe someone might not go hungry...THINK about it....!!!

******************************************
ISLAMABAD: World hunger is projected to reach a historic high in 2009 with 1,020 million people going hungry every day, according to new estimates published by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) on Friday.

Poor global harvests were not blamed for the most recent increase in hunger but the world economic crisis that has resulted in lower incomes and increased unemployment. This has reduced access to food by the poor, the UN agency said.

This year, mainly due to the shocks of the economic crisis combined with often high national food prices, the number of hungry people is expected to grow overall by about 11 per cent, FAO projects, drawing on analysis by the US Department of Agriculture.

Almost all of the world’s undernourished live in developing countries. In Asia and the Pacific, an estimated 642 million people are suffering from chronic hunger; in Sub-Saharan Africa 265 million; in Latin America and the Caribbean 53 million; in the Near East and North Africa 42 million; and in developed countries 15 million in total.

The urban poor will probably face the most severe problems in coping with the global recession, because lower export demand and reduced foreign direct investment are more likely to hit urban jobs harder. But rural areas will not be spared. Millions of urban migrants will have to return to the countryside, forcing the rural poor to share the burden in many cases.

Unlike previous crises, developing countries have less room to adjust to the deteriorating economic conditions, because the turmoil is affecting practically all parts of the world more or less simultaneously.

The economic crisis also comes on the heel of the food and fuel crisis of 2006-08.

While food prices in world markets declined over the past months, domestic prices in developing countries came down more slowly.

They remained on average 24 percent higher in real terms by the end of 2008 compared to 2006.

For poor consumers, who spend up to 60 per cent of their incomes on staple foods, this means a strong reduction in their effective purchasing power.

It should also be noted that international food commodity prices are still 24 per cent higher than 2006 and 33 per cent higher than 2005.

Why the silence?

These questions are for all my non-shia brothers and sisters...WAIT...let me edit and add some Shia's to this list as well:

How may of you know that a place named Parachinar exists in Pakistan?

How many know that taliban have been killing shia's there for a very long time now...the place is besieged and there is no supply of food, water or medicine for them?

How many know that even now fighting is going on there, more than 25 shia men have been killed and their families displaced...the village over taken by the taliban?

How many know of all the kids and women that have died there and are still dying?

Every heart aches for kashmiris and palestinians...all of you sit and curse indian army and israeli's for their oppression....what about the oppression going on in our own backyard?

Are these people not worth a thought 'cuz they are shia? is their blood not of value?Why doesn't the media show such an important issue that is taking place inside the country? how come all the leaders and religious scholars are mute on the subject?!

WHY?!

Everyday the level of my dissappointment in us as a nation reaches a new level...the pit seems to have no bottom.

May Allah(swt) have mercy on us...ameen.
