conspiracy mongers


A lot of things going around make me wonder and one such thing is what pops on in social media regularly after two to three weeks and that is something about the shooting of Malala. We all must have read this or shared it on face book how her shooting was fake and how her wounds were fake and how she was working for CIA and her father was cashing in on it and how this is only a conspiracy against Islam and Pakistan etc etc. well for starters not even 1 person claiming to know all this actually saw her or was there when she was operated but still for the sake of argument even if you were not present there or knew somebody who was present there, you want people to believe your photo shop version of the so called “truth” rather than believing half of the armed forces, people who tended to her operated her looked after her in Rawalpindi and abroad. All these reputed doctors and security personnel are lying , helping being part of this conspiracy , all but you who for the sake of it changed the pictures in photo shop and are feeding people false conspiracy alarm. I also wonder on the intelligence of the so called educated politicians and youth that they try their level best to find a conspiracy behind this event but they overlook some very important issues which are actually effecting our strength as a nation. We would keep on waiting for that attack on our national interest which was helped by shooting malala for some reason but we wont try to stop this new plague that has started to grow and our politicians are trying to put this in our heads to forward their own agenda which is getting votes. I never heard anybody raising a voice or sharing a picture when Bilawal addresses the Sharif as the Sharif of Punjab or as the Sharif of Lahore, nobody asks him why are you discriminating them why not call the Pakistani, why Punjabi? Why telling the rest of the people that they wont be thinking of other provinces because they are from Punjab. Similarly nobody asks Mr. Asfandyar Wali when he said that Urdu is the language of the enemy...... I was taught that Urdu is the national language of Pakistan, why call it the language of the enemy just because MQM claim to be Urdu speaking..... and why and how can we call some people muhajir and make it a tug of war for the most important city in our country. The people who came to Pakistan from India are as much Pakistani as we are who were born here, why still fighting for some issue which is being imposed on us. This is the same issue which was raised by raw made mukti bahini before east Pakistan was separated from us, they also made Urdu the issue which was never the case. You can read books written by so many Bangladeshi’s that Urdu was never the issue of the people, this hatred was fed into the hearts of Bengali for the non- Bengali slowly similarly the way they are feeding it in hearts of muhajir n the rest of the people. It was only the game of power, who would get to be the prime minister, who would rule and they tore a nation into two. Urdu which was the uniting power for the creation of Pakistan , how can it be the dividing rule for the nation it identifies with.
So its my humble request to the overworking minds of the conspiracy mongers that if you really want to find CIA or raw's role behind a conspiracy than find out why are we people demanding separate identities rather than being the one that we are blessed with. And we should also stop defaming malala because America is attacking with drones..... seriously this is the most illogical link. If you also condemn drone attacks like me than start making yourself heard instead of bashing a small girl who was shot, start a petition write to United Nations, write to foreign news blogs and channels, get your petitions signed and then make them known to the authorities. Ask the self proclaimed “only educated” political party that if they condemn the attacks prove it by providing the youth with these pledges and letters which can be signed and send them to the outer world and organize seminars which will guide the youth to learn to protest and prove their point the way educated and mature nations do. There should be a difference between educated politicians and uneducated ones. Social media should be used to spread values and knowledge instead of making people hostile against each other. It should teach youth tolerance and responsibility rather than ignite them to burn buildings and kill teachers or hang themselves. If we agree to them than we are being partners of their crime, the crime all of them are committing just to get political power, power over our lives. Even if they have power to control our lives I think they should not have the power to control our minds and we should not allow the the comfort that they can make us believe anything whenever they want, we have a right to raise voices and issues , the right which is given to us by our identity that is “ Pakistani” at least this is the only identity I have. Please don’t anything or anyone make you question this identity based on any discrimination.
