When I said that Partition of 1947 was a British swindle, and that Pakistan, created as an Islamic state, is a fake artificial country, and is really part of India, and will definitely reunite with it one day under a secular government, I was strongly criticised and even abused by many Pakistanis.
But what has happened today in Islamabad goes to prove that I am correct. A Shia mosque was bombed during Friday prayers, killing at least 31 Shias and injuring 169 others, evidently by Sunni extremists, who believe that Shias are heretics, and not true Muslims, and therefore do not deserve to live.

For long Ahmadis were declared non-Muslims and treated barbarically

Even if Ahmadis say there was another Prophet after Mohammed, are they cutting off anyone’s head, are they chopping off anyone’s limbs ?
And of course Hindus, Sikhs, Christians and other minorities in Pakistan are treated like second ( or third ) rate citizens and persecuted by blasphemy laws etc and not allowed to occupy high positions like President, Prime Minister, etc
Many Pakistanis think that Pakistan’s massive socio-economic problems will be solved once former Prime Minister Imran Khan is released from jail and again becomes the PM, after a fresh and free elections. But this is an illusion. Imran Khan has really nothing in his head, and has no solution to Pakistan’s huge problems of massive poverty, unemployment, etc. When he was the PM he kept talking of Madine ki Riyasat and other such reactionary nonsense, and before the 2018 parliamentary elections he gave PTI tickets to dubious ‘electables’, and hobnobbed with religious extremists.
The real solution to Pakistan’s problems is reuniting with India under modern minded patriotic leaders determined to transform our subcontinent into a modern industrial giant, like China, and steadily raising the standard of living of our people and giving them decent lives, as I have explained in my articles below :
