12th May
By Asim • May 18th, 2008 • Category: Politics • 5 Comments •Only a hope we all have
our only possession;
to offer
through years of trial and error
Only a day we all have
Our only celebration,
To remember
Through years of our formation
Only a life we all have
our only existence;
to bring peace and comfort
through years of blood and terror
Only a nation we all have
entangled in crisis;
to gather
through years of evil and hatred
Only a dream we all have
our only friend;
to have freedom and justice
through years of struggle & protest
Only a word we all have
in darkened nights;
through years of abuse
for salvation and peace
Only a hope we all have
the intangible spirit;
through years of hunger & sufferings
to ignite, our drowsy conscience!

12 May… Day of Musharraf and One Party… Thumbs Up for their victory on Karachi Streets by Killing Innocent People and showing Paid Power in Islamabad (Rs200 per person plus pick and drop).
Shame Shame Shame…
Karachi is a metropolitan city with approximate population about 16 million .being head of business hub it enjoys all sights and seems of diversity from different peasant belonging to different ethnic horizon. Similarly due to its large number of different horizon based population there are number of political forces active as opponent on ethnic as well as political, and sectarian back ground. However, traditionally much is seen in political contest when we calculate the share of these political rivals in keeping and exploiting the environment.
Area based massacre, to mob insurgency has always been the traditional attitude, when we genuinely look in to the detailed scrutiny.
Being a city with active participation in political scenario this city has to bear multiple episodes of anarchical calamities, of and on some times in the name of sectarian whereas there are multiple instances on ethnic and political affiliation based ,in almost every new month of each year .
This weakness perhaps because of its political mapping is always in under consideration by these political goons all over the countries, who normally focus Karachi for their merciless activity, sabotaging its peace and then reverting back to their cities condemning a ethnic based political force, for all upcoming.
Similar episode of unpleasant environment was observed last year as the writer has indicated.
Although the threat that could become the fate of this city was perceived by the serving functionaries of that time, but some insane mongers, shattered the say of state and deliberately induced a well planned massacre so to engage the same political force in to the responsibility. This point can be supported by the writer assessment as well.
“The deposed chief justice of Pakistan, Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhry was to address the SCBA in Karachi but it was not allowed by the state & city government of Karachi”.
“The city government had shown alertness a night before as it had blocked all the major routes going to the Quaid-e-Azam international airport”.
Although it was expected that some untoward hidden hands were ready to maliciously involve this city and its people in another reservation of conspiracy but few beneficiaries matched the situation and enjoyed what was the intention.
On 12th may there were numbers of political forces who were showing their power as road show ,the chief flag bearers were ANP,PPP,TI ,JAMT-E-ISLAMI, on one hand whereas MQM,on the other .
This is a tradition here in our country to display the force by arms and ammunition, and none of the political force can be tagged that they were weapon free.
For this I don’t need to give evidence and there are hundred of footage available on net and media that may show that it was a state of anarchical situation ,with responsibility to be shared by all political forces on the road that day ,and only MQM can not be criticized .however .like all time theses all time rivals again targeted the said political force on the issue victimizing and claiming that they were pious whereas Karachi based force is a culprit .in my opinion ,this attitude has been seen by Karachi and karachite ,(NOT ONLY MOHAJIRS) multiple time and no one having roots and political stance in the form of force can claim to be decent .under such motivated targeting ,this attitude of the writer is a bias, malicious ,and malafide ,and well mannered targeting against single party ,hiding and distorting the ground realities .
let me say its my honor or perhaps one of life time credit in the vocabulary of achievement, to have on the table of discussion with different opinion oriented methodology regarding an issue that is and was, since the day it occurred ,remained the matter of criticism ,for many ,infact every existing thoughts in the shape and format of diversified ethnic origin, less ,person belonging to Karachi ,typically known as mohajir.
As regard to disagreement with me, regarding multiple issue, I owe reservation with oblige and consider it a prerogative as in my opinion it is this difference of opinion that opens horizon of thoughts and transformed the sphere of thoughts in to extended perceptions and conclusion.
Discussion on the table of criticism should never give an impression of motive or personal reservation behind the theme.
The idea of such discussion is to highlights the factors and its causes, on the available platform of facts, figure sand ground circumstantial evidence based opinion, and vest the power of decision in the hands of the reader so to get their version of thoughts and say, whereas leaving the subject, to get some new version and opinion, thus interpreting as final comments in conclusive manner, embarking and disembarking the desired motive or thoughts.
If I conclude my above self made methodology of opinion ,in the light of floated idea and comments regarding the event and your perception regarding subject political /ethnic force ,there is no way that I can safely manage to get you away as non bias commentator.
it’s all about how one, perceive and interpret things.
Perceptions and feel has a very little line of demarcation, and most of the times used inadvertently and interchangeably as synonymous. Up to the point of definition and synonymous arteriation in a vocabulary of books, terminology does not create mess but if we get out of definition and implement the terms on factual ground realities, there seems to be a mass difference.
This is the root cause of deranged directions of thinking mechanics.
We feel things through our innate abilities that have been destined by virtue of our god gifted natural tendencies in the shape and format of nature, as smell, taste, sight and scene, hearing, and touch.
These are the modes by which we appreciate the end result or resultant in the form of good, bad, stink, and etc.
However perception is an integrated phenomenon.
It’s the cumulative effect of feel and associated paraphernalia with element of interpretation. If I observe state in the light of perception my feelings would be different, as compared to a person who observes state by his feel, as closed observation would relate element of emotion with in the domain of definition.
Decisions of states are always authoritative and demands implementation.
State has the in born element of administration and administrative methodology is based on rule regulations, enforcement and restrictions, long term impact, fear, obligations based criteria and many such elements that may create a traditional attitude to follow.
Any trespassing with loose command and unstable and weak implementation, challenges the writ, and this becomes the turning point.
Relief being granted in lieu by nation is always considered as the placebo treatment.
It is the same realization that is implemented in the form and format of writ of the state and constitution.
Such attitude of the state is neither on behalf of any foreign agenda nor a personnel conflict.
Decision makers and ordinary man desire, should always be perceived in the light of expertise and requirement, availabilities of facts, figures, opinion oriented systemized observations and experience considering and fore casting the overall issue whether international, or national and local and of course after effects.
This is a horizon based methodology where ordinary men can only share by desire and requirement.
Dictations are not acceptable at the platform and domain of governance.
What is being said, decided, seen and moved it has to be followed by all.
The threat of afore mentioned scene was felt by the government as well as subjects leaders of lawyer committee and every political party involve in the scene that day, as well as people residing in Karachi that same event of unwanted episode may be initiated, but subject leaders without realizing the thrust resisted to express their power on roads and to the state.Just an eye opener that who was actually involved in 12th May, the video will tell you.

Its not a problem of one party or two parties or three parties… after all who were the victims of all this dispute. I often see that victims are only Ambulance Drivers, Rikshaw Drivers, Labour, Women or innocent 3/4 yrs kids. I can tolerate all killings but I can’t tolerate killing of small babies on roads. Its the worst kind of humanity. Please spread awareness among each other that stop this…
Or like Peshawar, give Pistol to each and every citizen… crimes will automatically stop. No body will dare to robe other, no body will dare to start bursting in populated areas, no body will dare to insult women on buses or on streets… When these criminals knows that every body is having Pistol or gun in their pocket then they never comes in public so nakedly.
Have you ever saw extreme kind of crimes or innocent deaths in NWFP big cities. Reason is only one. If you will try to robe some one, any body can shoot you from surroundings. You will find bank robberies or jewelery shop robberies there once in a blue moon also. This terrorist suicide bomb attacks is different chapter…which is introduced by some one else.
