The Pakistani Spectator

In a session this Tuesday, the Punjab Assembly described Nov 3, 2007 as a ‘black day’ in the history of Pakistan.

Amazing isn’t it, that Nov, 3rd 2007 is a black day…but Oct 12 of ‘99 is …well not a colored day at all. Just a normal first time suspension by some nobody day. We don’t even remember it. Perhaps it was justified; no? Because Mr. Justice was on the lawbreaker’s side then.

Hmmm….What of the black days of Zia, then? Maybe (selective) amnesia lets our dear (selected few) Punjab assembly Members forget that. Or maybe that they were in Power becuase of the (not so popular now) dictator.

What of the amazing feat of overtaking the Supreme Court of Pakistan by these (so-called) honerable sugar-mill owners….oh I am sorry…I meant to say MPAs of the Punjab Assembly.

So by declaring Nov 3, 2007 black, we are supposed to think that Oct 12, 1999 was a white day?

I still don’t understand. What kind of just attitude is this? Or perhaps since Mr. Justice told everyone that it is a black day…it is indeed a black day, just like he told everyone that sugar be sold at 40 rupees…and sugar has been swept clean from the market since then…& who owns the Sugar Mills…?

Amazing co-operate Co-operation.  Black day…? Indeed!!
