It’s getting difficult to keep pace with the events happening in Pakistan. Apparently, these recent events are referring to one thing – the smell of a conspiracy. Massacre of more than 100 people in Quetta in twin blasts, protestors’ sit-in for four days with 86 dead bodies in sub-zero ambient with occasional showers of freezing rain, clamping of Governor’s rule in Balochistan while dismissing the elected government, statement by Chief Justice that people are looking to army for protection, Tahirul Qadri’s long march which reached Islamabad Monday evening asking for immediate dismissal of federal and provincial governments, and now Supreme Court’s orders to arrest the prime minister on corruption charges. A job well done by some hidden forces. Stage is being set for a long-term interim government with army and judiciary taking the lead role. Perhaps, we will miss this once in a lifetime opportunity for an elected government to complete its entire tenure.
Good luck Pakistan!
