Swat refugees and the insensitivity of the country - why?

  • Mood: Angry

Pakistanis are intensely emotional and patriotic people. Ever since I can remember, the nation has rallied together whenever faced against difficulties - be it Nawaz Sharif's campaign to rid the country of its debt, be it the nuclear tests of  1998, be it the battle of Kargil, and perhaps the greatest unification was seen during the October 2005 earthquake tragedy.
So the Pakistan Government took it for granted on launching the Swat Operation, that the nation would help clean the mess created. However,the Prime Minister is suprised to see the lack of response this time around.

The nation is tired of lifting itself out of trouble due to the poor planning of the Government . We ended up being vunerable to a Western raid amid fears of insecurity over the A-bomb, we ended up in a greater debt mess through which we cannot even imagine to get out of, we ended up losing Kargil in disgrace and we still  don't have a clue regarding how to deal with natural disasters.  We ended up creating  the Taliban and then fighting them. We ended up teaching children that Jihad was the way to win heaven, only now to be told we were brainwashed. We ended up seeing the horrible horrible tragedy of innocent children dying at Lal Masjid. What was their fault?

Their fault that the Mullahs, that in the first place used to have patronage of the Government and the West, were now the bad guys. So thank you, our Government, for screwing with our heads and ideology. We no longer know who we are and we are angry at you for stealing our identity. And as for the Taliban, we are disgusted at how in the name of Islam and Jihad you ended us up in this bombing mania. We hate you for this mess we are in. We hate your double standards of using illegal drugs, raw weapons and minors for your so called campaign to spread the word of Islam.
So, hell no, we are not going to give to your Prime Minister's fund or the Taliban supporting parties fund, because you screwed us and we are left with no identity. We are a nation of nobodies with no direction, whatsoever. We, the Generation X, are angry because you keep changing what is right and wrong and we are stuck in the middle.

P.S Help the Swat victims directly. Do not divert your money to any organization or party, because they have lost our trust. Such ill planning of the internal displacement is a horror to watch. Help the kids who are as confused as we are, because they deserve the right to find out who they are one day.
