Can I make a difference?

A lot has been discussed about Aafia Siddiqui.Media talks about her academic background and her association with prestigious institutes like MIT.At the talk shows Politicians from the ruling party defend themselves by saying that it all happened (Her arrest from Karachi) in Musharaf regime and they have nothing to do with it.Opposition scores points against the government by accusing them of negligence and poor followup of the case. “V” the Pakistanis talk about the fact that it could happen to anyone of us and that no Pakistani is safe and something should be done about it. “V” are discussing it the way “V” always do and things keep on getting from bad to worse .

Since the last couple of years I have started feeling that the people with decision making authority do nothing and they just talk about the issues and justify their failures.If I look down upon them for this reason than I should be different from them .After listening to the news of her conviction and a recount of the events by her sister I considered possible ways of reacting like Painting her name on my car to show solidarity.Wearing a black protest band during school hours so that students ask about it and I answer to create more awareness about the issue but these options looked easy.Irrespective of their effectiveness I had a feeling that I am doing what everyone else is doing i.e I am just talking!Than came the option of running a campaign against American products through the blog but we are bound to use so many American products which are required for survival and for our national growth and quitting such items would actually would’t bother Americans but hurt our own progress.I realised that even if I cant stop using microsoft Window or rest of the items which make America the largest economic entity on the planet,the least degree of sacrifice that I can make is to boycott such American items which are not needed for growth or survival like American entertainment so my dear fellas today on 5th of february 2010 I quit American music and movies
which I am so fond of and I am doing it because it’s the least that I can do to show solidarity to a daughter of my country who was taken away against Pakistani laws and without any trial due to the fact that “V” the Pakistanis are such shameless greedy cowards that we sell our women whenever we need to .”V” are a nation with no integrity,no moral values,no ownership to our heritage and no belief that there is a God whom we will return to !

Please share your opinion by adding comments to the following!

Would quitting American entertainment make a difference when “V” all get pirated media which does not generate any income for Americans and “V” cant boycott rest of the American products?

Do symbolic gestures (like quitting consumption items) really matter to nations?

Does it matter to feel sad and angry when no one else is watching?

Have we given up?

In Cricket ,senior team lost to a senior team and the junior team lost to Australia’s junior team . Winning and loosing are as common as sports themselves but when it comes to “V” the Pakistanis than winning always seems to be coming by chance or by luck and we never believe that winning is our right!

Why are Aussies always sure that they can!
And why are “V” always shaky that can “V”?

What are the stimulants of Hunger for victory?
Why do some nations keep on winning and some keep on justifying failures?

I analyzed various segments of our society and noticed few things.

Our poor people (People who have nothing to loose but still they keep on loosing!)

They scold the system but do nothing about it!and almost without exception they all are occupied with their physiological needs as one would expect but they really do not know the power they can have being large in number and getting united due to common interests the way the rich do!
They look towards the rich (Politicians) for help and rescue without realizing that the rich enjoy being rich to the fullest when they are surrounded by poor! So the interest of the rich would be that nothing changes around them!
The little that I know of about world history is that without exception no economic or political revolution became successful unless Masses (who were poor of the society) joined it and no autocracy survived once masses stood against it!
Inventions and Developments came by those who could see beyond the dinner table and beyond themselves when they had nothing to look up to!

When I look at the poor around than I observe dishonesty and laziness across all groups of people ranging from a Motor mechanic to a Molvi who teaches through the holy book! .They want to have free rides and lunches in the name of poverty but do not want work hard to alleviate it!

Our middle class (What would the people say? group)

They scold the system but do nothing about it! and people from this segment are always busy in portraying to the poor that they are rich and to the rich they portray that they are not poor! Our middle class overspends through borrowed money on occasions and events just to keep their Hats high! Their misery seems to be ever lasting and ever deepening! They save and borrow to spend at marriages/Death anniversaries and at number of occasions which have no religious or economic justification. Middle level socio economic groups just work or snatch!(through misuse of authority) to keep an image and status in the society as being rich and being in between rich and the poor they keep on consuming resources rather than investing them!

Our rich! (Big pockets but impoverish thinking group)

They scold the system but do nothing about it!.Religion and Economic systems both hold them responsible for rest of the society but they themselves keep on discovering new shapes and forms of hunger and they hardly work for self actualization. At parties the rich look desperate to have something which is just a drink! And they show off cloths/Mobiles and bags the way children do(impoverish thinking) and they never seem to realize that getting certified as rich through showing off consumption items is actually a sign that their heads are down towards their bellies and instead they should have been looking up to achieve something more than consumption of a human body!

When these social classes join than they also display few common traits!

“V” are Bad investors In terms of time and money (we consume a lot which could be avoided or saved like we spend billions of rupees to import Tea and Beatle leaf rather than using the money to grow such items in the country the way Saudis have become self-sufficient in growing wheat!)

“V” are not organized (Obvious signs come at roads, after prayer time at mosques, in our graveyards and our economic and social development policies!)

“V” lack self respect!(Consider conduct of our ministers/Heads of government/Heads of state, of those generals who withdrew in East Pakistan/Siachin/ Kargill, of those cricketers who are still desperate to play IPL after Indians have humiliated them, of us who still admire Indian stars without realizing what they think of us!)

“V” do not own our country (consider visa applications/immigration rate in our country!)

“V” do not believe in God so we keep on offending him through our acts!


We are sure that nothing is going to change but do we give up that easily on ourselves or on children when they are under performing? If not than why have we given up on our mother land? Please reply by adding comments to the post!
