Re: Re: BALOCHISTAN : Pakistani Army attrocities against Baloch community

Dear Mr. Ahmed Hameed,
I believe that incidences like these can never be condemned enough. I would like to extend my heartfelt grief towards the victims of this massacre.
I empathize with your for the expressed indignation, but this is not an act that has been democratically voted for and approved by Pakistani’s people. You do not need to be ashamed of being a ‘Pakistani’ because of this incident. This is an act approved by the head of the state representing the people. I wish also for a peaceful resolution and stability in the areas affected by this incident. I believe that if there is something that you should be ashamed of, is a poor choice in democratically electing such a president (I believe that you should understand that you want to live is a democratic society that values freedom and peace for its citizens and at the same time doesn’t have imperialistic agenda). I am sure that you wouldn’t have voted him a president without looking at his manifesto. If you be honest to your heart, I am also sure that you are well aware of the fund risings that occur in your country for promoting unrest in other countries. This is something that must make you feel ashamed of.
The only solution, seems to me, is choose another representative to take care of this situation before he becomes another Saddam Hussain! The lost lives can’t be regained and what can be done is to apprehend the people responsible for this act, right from the top of the ministry and prosecute them just like Saddam (call the war fair or unfair, we all have to agree that his approval of such a massacre is really cold. I don’t think that there is much to debate there because he should have brought the culprits involved in the massacre to his own mode of justice, under his governance) is being tried. If you cannot find any better representative, the situation would speak for itself and then you would have something to regret but not a reason sufficient to be ashamed to be a Pakistani (because it would be pellucid that he is the best of what you got in the lot!).
The only thing that seems to be particularly disturbing in your response is what you think was an “analogy”. The tone of your expression does unequivocally reek of your support for the imperialistic agenda of Pakistan. I sincerely request you to get your facts and history straight before you pass any of your “noble” comments. It is because such fraudulent thinking that the young minds in the Kashmir valley and in POK are getting perverted. There is nothing to talk about POK if you know what it stands for, it should ring a bell in your own mind how it was occupied by Pakistan. Don’t delve in past it is too bloody, try to be proactive in preventing any future carnages. History is definitely the foundation for both the present and the future but my friend, don’t be myopic, we were all one nation to begin with. Akin to an old house that need renovation, so does our relations as neighbors and as once-upon-a-time brothers of the same family needs remodeling. We have to work towards rekindling this instead of trying to set the neighbors house ablaze.
In all these years, we have invested a great amount of wealth and priceless human creativity into engaging in wars and tried to prove supremacy, but at the end do you want differ from me at best describing the animosity as nothing but a “family feud”? No one wins in a family feud, both the brothers loose. Even if one wins, they still loose their brother! Wait a minute, I will take it back, it is in the favor of the one who wants to make business out of the feud by selling arms. Therefore, do you realize that we have not learnt anything from our nation’s or nationas’ the oppressive colonial past? Try rethinking on these lines and you would probably differ from you own self!
Those poisonous words and the thinking underlying them is not in anyone’s favor my friend, I beseech you to relinquish them. Our countries could both have been prosperous and regained our past glory because of the quality of brains that we have, but only if we wouldn’t have chosen to invest all of it in engaging in wars! We have to each get emotional upon remembering the sacrifices that both the nations had to offer for our existence but we don’t need to get enslaved by them.
As deplorable as it is, those figures of the present incident stand no where near the massacres that occur in India powered by your nation. Don’t you think that it gives you something much more to be ashamed of? Bribing and creating radical thinking can never bring peace. Such massacres would keep happening. As once expressed in one of the Hindi films, you can grow wheat if you sow guns my friend.
You sure sound to be more concerned about the image of your nation but not the agenda or the consequence of such an agenda. This sure is a clear consequence of what could be expected out of such an agenda at its worst. My friend, do not get me wrong by being so elaborate on so many issues I do not intend to intimidate or insult you. I want you to understand that everyone’s life is valuable be it a person in Balochistan/ Pakistan/ India/ USA/ Iraq……
Each one of our life could be a legacy, a guiding lantern for somebody else to follow and improve upon.
I would like, at the end to point out at the way things are turning out all around the world. God had given us such a creative mind and the power to create and propagate our own kind. He is also watching us my friend and sure seems to be unhappy (pay attention of the number of calamities that have occurred this last year 2005). There sure seem to be a divine intent to annihilate his creation. Don’t make Him/ contribute towards His regret any more by spreading such bad thoughts that are more driven by canards than facts.
I am a sincere humanitarian, and anyone feel the pain of misery be it in Balochistan, Pakistan, Iraq, India, Africa or for that matter any where. With so much of development that we claim to have achieved, what good is it all if we can’t take care of our own kind and succumb to such heinous acts driven by greed for wealth and power?
I am a Hindu but I have an open mind to appreciate the good of all the religions, I do not know if Mr. President George Bush is a real Christian, but Christianity professes – Love the sinner and hate the sin, concept.
May God have mercy on all of us and forgive the sins that our human kind is inflicting on our own kind and on the nature, his creation!
“Asato maa sath gamayaa
Tamasoo maa jyotir gamayaa
Mrityor maa amrutam gamaya”
Meaning – May God empower us to move from lies and deceit to reality, from darkness of ignorance to enlightenment and from death to immortality (the only way know to man to become immortal is by becoming famous).

Sarve jana sukhinoo bhavantu
Lookaa samastaa sukhino bhavantu

May all the people be happy and prosperous. May the whole world be happy and prosperous. In other words, by following the path of His divine light as perceived by people belonging to different modes of worship, may every one in the universe be peaceful, wealthy and content.
