We remain silent or, worse, misrepresent the ongoing Shia genocide in Pakistan by dishonestly giving it ethnic or sectarian colour. We blame Zia.
We work in dodgy think tanks which publish and reinforce the Deep States views and policies on Afghanistan and Kashmir. We blame Zia.
We never visit victims of the ongoing Ahmadi persecution, those whose graves and mosques are being desecrated and ordinary citizens being target killed, to offer our sympathies and support. We blame Zia.
We present and promote Hamid Mir and other pro-Taliban agency-thugs as anti-ISI heroes, and icons of journalism. We blame Zia.
We criticize incompetent and corrupt elected leaders, undermine democratic governments, become a part of ISI-sponsored caretaker governments. We blame Zia.
We keep serving corporate interests of private media whose policies and agendas remain shaped by programme ratings and loyalties to the military establishment. We blame Zia.
We enjoy sumptuous dinners and high-teas at five start hotels, US-funded social media events, flatter government ministers and other officials, discuss virtues of Marxism and socialism, while ignoring bans on websites of Shias and Ahmadis. We blame Zia.
Our progressive, Marxist heroes right from Faiz Ahmed Faiz to Laal Khan remained conveniently silent on excesses against Ahmadis, Shias, Barelvis etc. We blame Zia.
Our icons of freedom and socialism, Faiz Ahmed Faiz, Sajjad Zaheer etc join hands with an army general (General AKbar) whose hands are soaked in blood of innocent Balochs, Pashtuns, Kashmiris. We blame Zia.
We support General Zia in the PNA movement and march with General Hamid Gul and Jamaat-e-Islami in the Lawyers Movement: two establishment supported movements that furthered the cause of religious extremists. We blame Zia.
We try to suppress and ban those voices which question our selective morality and safe-topic activism. We blame Zia.
We remain deeply prejudiced against Ahmadis, Barelvis, Shias etc. We blame Zia.
We enable further Shia genocide by promoting voices of ethno-centric ISI-touts in Quetta. We blame Zia.
We thrive on elitist Punjabi-Muhajir networks excluding or misappropriating voices of ethnic and religious minority groups. We blame Zia.
We crack racist jokes against Pashtuns, Sikhs, Hindus etc. We blame Zia.
We equate Pashtuns with Taliban and Baloch nationalists with RAW and CIA. We blame Zia.
We continue to ignore the dead Baloch intellectuals and nationalists abducted and killed by Pakistan army. We blame Zia.
Our Pakistan starts at Islamabads Faisal Mosque and ends up at Karachis Quaid-e-Azams mausoleum via Lahores Minar-e-Pakistan. We blame Zia.
We exploit victims of acid attack for personal promotion and glory. We blame Zia.
We refuse to honour those who are laying down their lives to save us from Zias children. We blame Zia.
We remain engaged in commercially profitable NGOs and jobs, remaining silent on urgent humanitarian issues, while chanting mantras of liberalism and Marxism. We blame Zia.
We keep digging deeper into history while refusing to write on most brutal massacres which are happening right now in front of our eyes. We blame Zia.
We consider Shias as not as good Muslims as Sunnis. We blame Zia.
We consider Ahmadis and Barelvis as deviant sects. We blame Zia.
We remain racist and ethnofascist to the core. We blame Zia.
We blame Zia for everything we could have done right, but did not do because we are either morally compromised or coward. We blame Zia.
As LUBP explained in a previous post This too was Pakistan, Zia (and to a lesser extent Bhutto) is used as a convenient scapegoat to explain Pakistans current woes. This mindset ignores the fact that the rot of Pakistan had started right from its very foundations and genesis in 1947.
Pakistani liberals exaggerate Zias contribution to the mess Pakistani State is currently in without acknowledging the fact that they themselves continue to contribute to the problems of the nation.
The trajectory of Pakistani society and politics has progressed logically from what the Jinnah founded, Liaquat initiated, and several others contributed to. General Zia was merely a prominent marker in that journey. Pakistan will keep travelling down the road of never ending Islamisation and purification. What else can be expected from a nation whose very name is racist, Pakistan, as if all others are na-pak i.e., impure. Non-Muslims and Non-Sunnis really have no place in Jinnahs and Zias Pakistan.
Zia has long died but no one has dared to touch upon any of the discriminatory traditions and laws he, his predecessors and his successors introduced in Pakistan. Pakistan was created on communal basis and had to be put on a trajectory which has led it to its current state. Any entity which is created on hate (hatred of Hindus and other non-Muslims) begets hate.
Jinnah pushed a boulder down from the top of the cliff. Zia simply cleared the impediments for the rolling stone.
Since, the stone gathered speed because of the act of Zia, everybody blames him. But, the founder as well as the very foundations remain unquestioned.
Liberals will come and go. Zias legacy will remain, which also happens to be Jinnahs legacy.
General Zia-ul-Haq is a convenient cover up to hide or justify all what was done to Pakistan by his predecessors and successors. And of course himself.
He is a poster child, a powerful excuse for our perpetual failures, apathy and inaction.
Viva la liberals.
