Hai uss zood pesheymann ka pesheymann hona

Listening to these yesteryears’ collaborators of every dictatorial regime presents a new low for Pakistani society. It is highly diabolical to see people like Mirza Alam Baig, Hameed Gul and Majeed Malik etc to give us lessons in democracy and democratic movement. I for one will never ever believe in their sincerity with democratic ideals. Look for the timings; they only came out when they were ridiculed by their former master. Had he not made fun of them they would have been happy living in their plush discounted estates.

Ki merey qutl ke baad uss ne jafa se toba
Hai uss zood pesheymann ka peshaeymann hona

All I can sense is that they are trying to steal the limelight from lawyers and civil society’s movement for democracy and contitutionalism. If they are genuinely desire for return of democracy they first and formost unreservedly apologies to people of Pakistan and give back all titles and rewards showered over them by former dictators for their services in destroying democratic and judicial institution in Pakistan without any further ado.

Even when they do this lawyers and civil society must keep their movement away from these born again democrats because of their dubious past.

As far as new COAS’s oft repeated letter to army personals is concerned it is nothing but a lip service or may I put it less matter and more art. Look how sincere our new COAS is with his new commitment that former COAS General Musharraf still occupies the Army house even when he reluctantly retired from army and occupied the presidency. Perhaps our new Army Chief thinks that once in army always in army and therefore his new directive does not apply to General (retd) Musharraf henceforth he has been allowed to reside among army officers.Or may be in General Pervaiz Kiyani’s definition, president can not be a political personality.

What do you think of the lectures in democracy by BB, and now by lohachore and Asif Zardari?
