Death to our enemies.

Sixty five years after independence Pakistan is holding historic general elections. Historic because for the very first time a civilian government will pass on the baton to another civilian government without a period of army rule in between. Nawaz Sharif, who was deposed by Pervez Musharraf  in 1999 when he would not allow the latter's plane to land in Pakistan while returning from a visit to Sri Lanka, is supposed to be the fovourite because of his hold on Punjab. However, Sharif, who leads the PML(N) party, will probably not get a clear majority because former cricketer Imran Khan, who leads the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party and was once married to heiress Jemima Goldsmith, fell from a makeshift rickety lift while on an election rally and has fractured several vertebrae. It is thought that this will generate a lot of sympathy votes for Khan although the crafty old war horse Sharif immediately cancelled campaigning for one day projecting himself as a gallant opponent who does not take advantage of his adversary's misfortune. These 2 men are up against so called secular parties which are Muttahida Quami Movement ( Altaf ), Awami National Party and Pakistan Peoples Party of the present president, Asif Ali Zardari. However dubious the claim of being secular maybe, these 3 parties have been targeted by the Tehrik-e-Taliban who have killed over one hundred politicians so that these parties are having to campaign quietly. Even today, on the day of election, at least 10 people have been killed by bombs. The former Prime Minister of the PPP, Yousuf Raza Gilani's son Ali Haider was kidnapped at gun point. Both Khan and Sharif have said that they will make peace with the Taliban. Does it mean that they will allow the Taliban to try to take over Afghanistan when NATO troops withdraw next year and continue to kill minorities we do not know. However, it is unlikely that any new government will be able to control the ISI in its support of Lashkar-e-Toiba's attacks on India. A bunch of idiots in India are talking about peace with Pakistan and trade increasing from $3 billion to $30 billion but this is unlikely. We must build a fence to keep the mad dogs caged in Pakistan. Our other enemy, China is hugely powerful and extremely dangerous. China cannot be stopped militarily so we can only pray for mother nature's help. The Chinese habit of eating every living creature means that viruses can transfer from animals to humans. The SARS virus is said to have originated in civets. We now have the H7N9 virus, probably from ducks. Once a virus learns human to human transmission there could be an epidemic. Such an epidemic may kill millions worldwide but if half of China is wiped out causing its economy to collapse resulting in civil war Tibet will become free and the danger will disappear. Is it wrong to wish death to enemies?
