O Karachi. Part II

Jay what kind of prat are you ? No matter what the mood of the discussion you dont hesitate to bring in your very own crap, faultfinding with Pakistan may have been your strong point but you must keep the lid on your sick brain when something pleasant is discussed. Sicko, I really pity you.

...pardaisi...just read your intro...all i can say is good luck....better men/women than you have tried and failed...

Jay first of all from reading your postings, I think that you are more of a fundamentalist than most people I know. No matter what the subject may be, you tend to digress along one line. Have you ever been to Karachi?

What makes you think that people who write on Chowk dont walk the streets of Karachi and that have not worked with social welfare organisations? You always ask others to do something, but dont you think that you should sit back and think about what you are doing other than spreading the seeds of hatred?

I dont know about your contributions to society, but I do know of mine and I dont think that you or anyone else has the right to criticise others without really knowing anything about them.

By the way some of my best friends were and are Hindus so I dont know how you can pass judgement on people that you dont even know.

Jay,

you are back! in a way I am glad that you still love life in some weird way and have not slashed your wrist or throat. Keep swallowing Prozac and you will be fine.

You talk about Bakrid......Jesus sacrificed himself for his believers what do you say about that ? (Now stick to the subject don`t bring killing by militants or anything to justify your comments).

Happy Chowking!

Shehzad,

what about Zehri`s and Zarwani`s harami pun on the streets of Karachi? Zehri around Shaheed-e-Millat road (near Duty Free Shop) and Zarwani`s in DHA, I can only speak about these 2 you mentioned as I know his brother Khalid Zarwani.

Were you are the wedding of Najeeb Zarani _ I believe he married Salma Agha`s sister ? Do I remember my 80`s ? I am wondering if I know you..hmmmm

hi, as far as da collections of automobiles is concerned still there are few people who have got the best collection of latest ones. After going through your personal experiance bot yur passion, i guess i need to be under your guidance for sometime. but i guess U forgot somthing bout collection of Nadem khan and pardesi guyz......hope to c yur comments in da next one

Shazad,
Reflect on the days when goans were a major force in karachi, think of the days when there used to be daily flights from karachi to goa. think of what happened to the hindus, and then reflect on the TNT, the notion that hindus and muslims cannot live together idea of creation of pakistan cast into the young minds through education.
Istead of sitting and reflecting, walk the streets of karachi, walk with the edhi foundation crew and collect abandoned dead bodies, 90 per week, and think of the uncountables of pakistan. Reflect on jihad, the legitimisation of killings, of course the kafirs, and how it has turned to killing for gains. Think of the bakrid killing of the animals in the backyard of karchi, and think how it has desnsitised the pak poulation and supported the street killings. The dead bodies on the roads, are they very different from the offals in the streets following bakrid.

You are talking about karach of 50 years ago, you are on a trip to the past, the next stop could be 1600 years back, and many in pakistan are of that mind set. Ask tahmed about jihad, he is also in the past, the book so old is still piling the dead bodies in karach streets. Open your eyes, do something about, rather than idle reflecting. Pathetic.

no other city in the world compares to the metropolis karachi....u need a brave heart to learn to love this city...its unique culture and people...i grew up in karachi in the 80`s and 90`s...and despite all the violence ....dirt....and maddness of the city.......no matter in which part of the world i live in......i`ll always be a die hard karachite!

You never know, InshAllah the good old days can still come back... its nice that you have memories like this of Pakistan, for younger people bought up on sectarian violence and fast creeping poverty its important to know how things used to be, it gives a little bit of hope for the future for us...
