Re #153 by kkkandk ``...Just ask the Bengalis. They were the most ardent supporters of Pakistan and in the end, they had to fight to be free from Pakistan - thanks to Punjaibi domination. ``
Sure.. and let`s see how Muhajirs protested to the Punjabi brutality:

``Thus when General Yahya Khan refused to honour the results of the 1970 elections, in which the East Pakistan Awami League secured an absolute majority in the National/Constitutional Assembly, and ordered military action to suppress the Bengali protest, the Mohajirs overwhelmingly joined the Punjabis in supporting the action and went into a frenzy of ethnic bigotry against the Bengalis.`` (1)

`` (1) Ethnicity and Politics in Pakistan`` by Feroz Ahmed, Pages 111-112, Oxford University Press

Memories are indeed short.

KKKandK,

Can you please quote the exact post or article that I might have put up which can be construed as ``Punjabi nationalist`` ? If you had even a shred of decency you would post up exactly what... or admit that you are the biggest liar on chowk.

I find it amazing that you will call me that of all people... who so far has been the proudest un-Punjabi on chowk... Anyway... because of your ignorant and obsessive posts I am beginning to reconsider everything... maybe Sameerjb was right all along and I was wrong.


Thank God we don`t have fools like you in Pakistan.

This is disgusting. sick. wrong. A part of my family moved from Ajmer sharif to karachi, and the other part is from Kokan. Going by the definitions I am as ``Mohajir`` as they come, but what kkkandk is saying here is nonsense. Among my family friends and rishtaydar, I have never seen any bias of this kind. I live in Lahore now, and I found PAKISTANIS living in Lahore to completely laid back, maybe even more so than Karachi, about such ethnic biases. I have never been asked where I am from. I am at ease in this city, as if I have lived here all my life. Maybe now I am a `Punjabi nationalist` too, but I think these biases are deliberately concocted by idiots. People like kkkandk don`t represent the opinions of the common ``Mohajir``. I should know because my father`s family in Karachi is as common ``mohajir`` as they come. This word has been abused for long, and it is time we all acted Pakistani.

I am surprised what complaints can there be against Punjabis. The President and COAS is a Mohajir. The Prime Minister is a Mohajir Elect. The country`s founder was Karachiite. The country`s most popular Prime Minister was a karachiite. Out of the 4 dictators this country has had 2 were Mohajir and 2 were Pathans. With the exception of Nawaz Sharif, all Prime Ministers have been Non-Punjabis. Punjabi language is not the national language of Pakistan, the Urdu language is which is the language of the so called ``Mohajirs``. I think it is the language of all Pakistanis. So far I haven`t seen my ``Punjabi`` husband speak a word of Punjabi. On his ID card his mother tongue is stated as ``Urdu``.

so stop imagining bogies that don`t exist

Gentlemen...

This is news for me.... According to KKKandK:

Musharraf is a Punjabi, Zia ul Haq was a Punjabi Ayub Khan was a Punjabi and Yahya Khan was also a Punjabi. In the long list of Punjabis ... let us not forget... Tikka Khan, popularly knows as Butcher of Bengal, was also a Punjabi and Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, who ordered the Pakistan army to crackdown on the Balochs in the 1970s, was definitely a Punjabi... Benazir Bhutto, who cracked down on the MQM, was also Punjabi.. Ah... amazing Punjabi domination so far... the previous Prime Minister the Fatso was a Punjabi... he had to be ... how did he get so fat if he was from a backward famine ridden province. Now the Prime Minister designate is a also a Punjabi ... And let us not forget the real tale of Punjabi domination... The constitution of Pakistan has declared that Punjabi is the national language of Pakistan... Punjabis are evil... Kill the Punjabis.

Thanks, I put PAsh on the highest pedestial compared to other contemporary Punjabi poets. It was unfortunate that he was murdered by the rascal Bhindrawale jamaat. He would have continued his struggle against the oppression by all the fascistic elements within Punjab politics, bureaucracy as well as the Sikh religious community. He was a true martyr!!
