Pakistan Today

Nothing depicts our political landscape and national discourse more aptly than this:



6:47 mins of bad entertainment.

Unfortunately - the only thing that can be said of Pakistan's political and military leadership - be it the ruling "cabal" or the opposition is this:

"If you've been bamboozled long enough, you tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. You're no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured you. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to yourself, that you've been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back."

Pakistanis unfortunately, carry egos the size of mars to ever acknowledge how easily they are fooled by "roti, kapra, makaan, enlightenment or insaaf".
