In Defence of Benevolent Dictators
Posted by thbuzz Mar 8, 2006 02:10 pm
press wASNT censored during zias regime?????? hIs opponents wereENt supressED??? which age are u living in my freind????? why dont u start with zamir niazi`s book the web of censorship? it will explai what zia`s rule was REALLY like.
i do NOT on ANy account agree that democracy shouldnt be there. the people should rule, but what i disagree with is a `capatalistic democracy` ....a `socialist or communist democracy` is what would be fair and just in my opinion. no one wants trash like benazir, altaf, or sharif. but no one wants to have dictators and the army however benevolent they are have no business to do this. we have had equally bad experiences with the men in green, as we have had with our so called democratcially elected leaders. even the `70 election was rigged by bhutto, so i really doNt know when the last honest election was. the only way in which the class gap along with poverty and other anti-social elements can be removed, is by bringing in proper CLASSLESS democracy otherwise there will always be a middle class, an elite class and the lower class. Feudalism shuold be completely abolished, and if Musharraf is a so called admirer of attaturk, then he should act rather than collaborating with those idiotic mullah-forces. sorry for being politically incorrect but line `em up and shoot `em. purge this country.

The Last Moments of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Posted by thbuzz Mar 8, 2006 09:47 am
regardless of his political views (supposedly socialist, although he was never atempted to disown the feudalistic spirit in him), his ulterior motives, and other flaws that people saw in him as a politician or a person, this account of his last days does provoke a certain humane sympathy inside me. Somehow or the other it was the anticipation of death that makes it so moving and scary, and its easy to say that ``Bhutto was hanged`` but to actually delve into the gory details is something else. Its always a prisoner`s anticipation of death-the feeling that he is going to die soon, is the thing that makes it this way. for example had he been shot directly without him knowing it, or plainly murdered without his knowledge, it wouldnt have been scary in the way it was now.
I found this piece to be quite interesting.

Faraz

errrr i dont remember the interract number nor the name of the person...but one guy said that suicide isnt affected by PEOPLE. well it is, and if you read philosphy...if you have EVER read and understood it, it can be quite depressing. and im sorry thats all im goinna say, bcs i joined here to submit and read articles not to start an orkut discussion. And Albert Camus or readings omething serious is not a ``FAD``, because the meaning is the thing thats important. You read books to think to know to imagine, not to start a FAD or LOOK COOL. and yes JAUN ELIA spelt his name like that and for your information he was a serious depressive, I know people who know him Personally. Yeah im talking abt the one married to Zahida Hina....anyhow, i really dont care whether people agree that a person is affected by philophiocal theories, but it happens. And i know a lot about depression, what the hell it is...
Faraz

Re: # 15
Hey I dont think that its a very good idea to tell you publicly why Faraz`s parents highlighted this as a murder case. But the police files closed shut on the fact that it was a suicide after beggining the investigation taking into account that it was a murder. They had their own purposes, but if we (his freinds) were in their place we would have done it differently. That wasnt all, you see, his father did a lot of other lowdown things after Faraz died that caused everyone problems. You can say it changed lives in the way that they shouldnt have changed.
Faraz was in the philosphy department and yes he knew all about Camus and Sartre and Kafka and of course Neitzche, etc. His suicidal reasons were something perhaps another wouldnt understand, but anyway i think its that person;s business to decide whthere he wants to live or not, not anybody elses. No one WANTS to be born, people are born and they live with it all their lives, most of them never even questioning things. Well Faraz was one of those who did. And I also know that he would liked the world to shut up about his death and not make him into a celebrity like people usually do when others die. But i sometimes feel angry at him, for ending his life in the way that he did, i feel angry when im sitting alone in my room, awake at 5 in the morning crying with depression and fear nd guilt picturing his dead face, and how he must have felt. I feel so pissed that i want to kill him and slap him and abuse him. But he was desperate. Cant u feel his desepration, Xari, when he was smiling at you the last time he saw you, in this complascent manner coldly planning his own death. Jumping down when he was scared of heights.

Faraz

Yes this is the answer to Elusive`s question: whether his parents tried to help him. Faraz was never understood proeprly by his parents. perhaps his father somehwat understood him. Yet even though faraz visited a psychiatrist, he wasnt satisfied with the progress. I couldnt have imagined him living for long. He couldnt live the life that people thought was ``normal``. He was alienated, more than many of us are. I wasnt surprised when he did this to himself. I was just shocked at the suddenness of it all....
