this is precisely the problem, my community thinks, it is beyond questioning!

if a party of thugs has ruled my community for over 40 years, I'd be hard pressed not to question the morality!

and re. the rest of the bunch, that really was not the question in the first place!

good point, but, I'd argue (nothing to take away what you have described is true!), it is also true, all the urdu speaking civil servants sold off their own community!

for example, Musharraf who supported for this thug gang!

and more resp, are the people, who did not utter a single word then!

BTW, who would you support Kehkashan haider or some rascal from sindho desh party or some AH from pathan terror gang!

I leave that question to you!

the way I see it, there are two thugs in Karachi:

1. silent population
2. those who take adv. of such silent freeks!

The interminable wait between life and death at Gul Plaza in Karachi

In Karachi, waiting has become part of the disaster itself: waiting for water, for help, for answers, for reforms. And in that waiting, lives are lost not all at once, but with each passing minute.

It wasn’t so much about the announcement or the declaration of death, muttered Qaiser, but the hours, minutes and seconds between the knowing and the not knowing — the brief yet interminable time of feeling suspended. On Tuesday, the elderly, bespectacled man entered his fourth day of waiting outside what used to be Gul Plaza.

Patches of dust, soot and perspiration stained his white shalwar kameez. His eyes drifted everywhere all at once, always searching but never landing anywhere. Every time a reporter approached him for an interview, he traded it for information: “Here is my phone number, please share the list of the dead whenever you get it,” he requested, and then proceeded to narrate his story.
 
“I tried to get into my shop, which faces the main road, and frantically tried to secure the merchandise, but the flames were huge, unforgiving.

All I could do instead was watch my livelihood burn before me and wait … wait for fire tenders, for divine intervention, for a miracle.”

Rescue teams clear debris of Gul Plaza building that collapsed after a blaze ripped through it.

Help did come, but a little too late. The first tenders arrived at the site nearly two hours after the fire broke out, Shujat recalled, and within five minutes they ran out of water.

“Once again, we were told to wait, this time for water tankers that were coming from Sohrab Goth and Nipa Chowrangi.”

But by the time they arrived, Shujat’s shop — which, according to him, held items worth Rs3 billion — was reduced to ashes. There was nothing left to save.
 
According to his team’s findings, the fire broke out in the air conditioning unit and then spread toward the artificial flower shops on the mezzanine floor.

“After waiting for two hours, when the KMC (Karachi Metropolitan Corporation) fire trucks finally arrived, they did not have snorkels, so the blaze on the top floors was not catered to.”

During every minute spent waiting, the fire gained strength, intensity, and control — eventually, it became a third-degree blaze.

“Every time, we wait for the government to come up with a better response, every time we wait for them to act promptly, every time we fall for the empty promises they make to us.”
