Voice from Waziristan

Coming back to what I was going to post.

Zee,

we have discussed this in the past. In our first interact you had said we are like this only and I had told you then change.

Many of you are fond of saying that there is a Surah in the koran that says (Though a former VHP colleague who is a Hafeez say it is untrue) "Who saves one life saves manking and who kills one kill entire mankind", in light of this what do you suppose you attitude should be.

If AQ is justified in striking America for its support to Israel then so is America hustified in retaliating against those it considers supporters of AQ.

Anyway the moot point to be considered is how can you cut your losses without invoking the wrath of either side (Waziris and America) to see that this deshat gardi is stopped in both your country and ours.

Fellow Pakistanis,

There is nothing to rejoice for us Indians over what is happening in swat. Ironically the safest place for Pakistani Army is LOC.

Correct me if I am wrong. The problem with tribal areas is that they never integrated with main land Pakistan and it's culture. However great administrator Mr. Jinnah was, he made this great mistake. He never integrated the tribes in Ferderal main stream and gave them too much autonomy.

Strange as it may seem the tribals are allotted a dozen of seats in the National Assembly of Pakistan to partake in making laws for the country which do not apply upon them. Moreover they are allowed utilities like electricity but they seldom pay the bill for it. WAPDA which is a terror for Pakies in general becomes a 'bheegi bili, vis a vis, the tribals.

An acquantis of mine, an XEN WAPDA, appoited in the tribal areas once narrated the following story to me of his altercation with a tribal:

XEN: Khan why don't you pay the bill.

Khan: What for?

XEN: For the electricity you used.

Khan: Who used eletricity? 'Kho chih' your electricity comes in through one wire and goes out through the other. I don't take out any of it. On the other hand it fuses my bulbs some time.

Only a tribal can dare say such a thing to WAPDA.

Re: # 67

Economical integration with hand in hand with political integartion is the only solution. One without the other is abmysal failure.
