बे वफाई बी नेभाई बड़ी वफ़ा से हम ने!
हिजर तक साथ न छोडें गे येः कसम खाई है !!
बा आबाद हूँ या फ़ना दो जहाँ मेरे!
रहते आलम तक रहूँ गा तिश्ने दमन तेरे न जाने येः कैसी सजा पाई है!!
Pakistan has always been the first, The first Islamic Nation with the Nuclear capability, the first Islamic Nation on the Path to creating a hardcore Militia or Militants and now the first Islamic nation teaching rest of the world how to throw dictators out of the Power.
Pakistan has its share of Glory and miseries and it began with Pakistan’s failed adventure to capture Kashmir in 1947 (right after the Great partition of India), then a Princeliest state ruled by Hari Singh, Despite being a Muslim Majority State people chose to accede to India rather fall in the Hands of Pakistan which from the very beginning started with a human rights violations. Pakistani adversaries were pushed back and it was a slap on the cheeks of Pakistani establishment. Kashmir became bone of contention between both nations and till date they are unable to swallow the defeat of 1947.
India was eager to reply back so they, created a plan to separate west Pakistan now Bangladesh from the Mainland Pakistan, India was successful in its master plan, India has put in place the civilian force comprising of Indian Bangali’s and Pakistani Bangali’s and they were known as Mukti Bahini (freedom organization). Pakistani Military was defeated and more then 90,000 Pakistani soldiers were made to surrender by the Indian Army led by Lt. Gen Jagjit Singh Arora who went with mere 10,000 Indian troops, It was a shame that Pakistan may not forget for many generations, India was quick to rub salt on the open wounds by releasing all the Prisoners of War in a goodwill gesture and to show rest of the world how great a deed it was, rest of the world was taken by the generosity of Indian act and no one questioned Indian interference in Pakistani affairs and Bangladesh was born.
Russia which wanted to Invade Afghanistan forgot to consult their historians about the people of Afghanistan. Afghans have been nomadic since centuries and none of the Kings and rulers were able to fully rule Afghanistan since the history is kept. Russians tried their best to rule that part of the world but US was not very happy with Russian presence in the South Asia/ Middle East, so they bribed Pakistan with arms ammunition and money which Pakistan needed to match or keep up with its Arch rival India. Taliban was created with the Help of American Tax payers hard earned money to counter the Russian advances in Afghanistan. US was successful in its plan and Russians decided to leave the barren land of warlords, Now it was free for all situation, Afghan President Najibullah was assassinated. His blood-soaked body was hung in public in Aryana Square in Kabul, Afghanistan on September 27, 1996 and the nation was in the hands of Warlords and Taliban. US realized that they had created a monster (Taliban) who is hell bent to destroy the values of a free world, equal rights for women, freedom to Pray or choose religion. Afghanistan was pushed into the dark ages where women were not allowed out of their homes without the company of a man, they were not allowed to go to schools, so it was a sea of zombies walking in hijabs without any identity of their own. Afghan who can afford escaped to India and Pakistan to save their lives and of their families. Now US had a bigger problem to deal with and it was Taliban a brutal regime which killed people in full public view in the Open play grounds, No games were allowed during Taliban rule so Play grounds were converted into killing fields, Life was tough and many Hindus and Sikhs who lived in Afghanistan for ages fled their mother land for foreign nations never to go back, In order to counter Taliban US had to make friends with Gulbudin Hikmatyar another somewhat moderate warlord, He was helping US take control or defeat the Taliban which proved to be impossible as US intelligence agencies could not fathom the power or dedication of brainwashed fanatics so Gulbudin Hikmatyar was assassinated along with many others. US was expecting Pakistan to help finish the menace of Taliban but they forgot that Taliban was the creation of Pakistan and its intelligence agency ISI and people in that part of the world do not change their loyalties because you want them to so US is still having the challenge to work out a plan to eliminate the Taliban, Some in Pakistani establishment tried under pressure from Pakistan but the result is on the newspapers every day suicide bombers are at will to kill anyone any where.
After the death of Gulbudin Hikmatyar Taliban had no known enemy so they went ahead with their plan of Islaminisaton and encouraging many thousand on the edge fanatics to join the cause of God. (I am still trying to understand that part) Afghanistan the land of brave and humble traders were turned into the land darkness and assassinations. The seed sown by the US was a mature tree and the fruit was visible everywhere from New York to Europe, from India to Bali, Thousands of children were left orphans and thousands of desires were buried with them.
Taliban started demolishing the Historic statues of Buddha which were in existence for many centuries, the famous saying is that Bush was watch foot ball and their was a commercial break so he flipped the channel and found people destroying a statue with artillery, he thought it was fun and enquired what kind of game it was? He was told that it was not a competition but the Taliban were destroying the Mighty Buddha for the past few days without much luck. Isn’t the Buddha Dali lama’s (Dalai lama) relative? Staff said yes, so bush got upset and ordered to finish off these Taliban Guys, He proved his might and friendship for Dali lama that the Taliban had to run for life and their supreme leader (one eyed Mullah) fled on a bicycle (Makes me chuckle). Bush kept his promise and freed Afghanistan from a barbaric regime. I still like you Ex President Bush, you screwed everyone of us royally but you had a golden heart and that is your legacy.
So Pakistan became the first Islamic Nation to export terror to rest of the world and also became first nuclear Islamic Nation, thanks to Uncle Sam for all the money and technology so Pakistan can counter or compete its arch rival half sister India.
Pakistan has the history of dictators, more then half of its independence/ creation it has enjoyed under the some what strict regimes of Military dictators, but Pakistan became the first Nation to stand tall and firm against one of its own, General Pervez Musharaf a dictator who took Pakistan in a bloodless coup from a legitimately elected corrupt government (parliamentarians). Pakistani’s from all walks of life made Gen. Musharaf’s life hell with road side protests for months. He had to shun his uniform under pressure and later his presidency to fled to UK to save his life. Pakistan is the torch bearer for rest of the Islamic world including Egypt and lot of other nations are inspired by the Pakistani imitative to throw the dictators out.
I must say Pakistan makes me proud when it comes to throwing dictators out!! Pakistan has multiple contributions (bad or good) to this ever evolving world, But I truly believe that India and Pakistan, Russia and US are responsible for all the mess we have in the world today or should I say Kashmir is the bone of contention between two dogs.
