The lawyers movement is aimed at restoring the judges and it is aimed at ousting General (r) Pervez Musharraf. Now after tolerating the unending delaying tactics of the Pakistan People’s Party, the lawyers have started their promised Long March, and they are expected to rock Islamabad.
But what is irking me is the exploitation and smearing of some tiny faction. Now the children of our elite study in the institutes like FAST and some others like it. This elite represents the establishment of this country, who has sucked this country dry, and all this misery and frustration and angst in the country is due to it. Now some of the students of these institutes are posing (mainly on the web) that they are the champions of this movement.
Have they ever slept in the load shedding? Have they ever slept with empty stomach? Have they ever received a baton on their jeans-clad asses? Have they ever tasted tear gas aside of their burgers? Just don’t get me started. Just writing some fancy posts on the web doesn’t make you the champs. The genuine people are those who are fighting for the cause on the roads, and who have real problems at their home. These are the people who are receiving the brunt of establishment for the last 60 years.
And that is why they cannot even imagine to pay fee of FAST for their beautiful children.
Aye to Long March, and …. to Short March.
