Dear Readers,
While All Things Pakistan has remained alive and online, it has been dormant since June 11, 2011 - when, on the blog's 5th anniversary, we decided that it was time to move on. We have been heartened by your messages and the fact that a steady traffic has continued to enjoy the archived content on ATP. While the blog itself will remain dormant, we are now beginning to add occasional (but infrequent) new material by the original authors of the blog, mostly to archive what they may now publish elsewhere. We will also be updating older posts to make sure that new readers who stumble onto this site still find it useful.
We hope you will continue to find ATP a useful venue to reflect upon and express your Pakistaniat. - Editors

Such a valuable resource.
Independence is to be able to think freely, speak freely.
He is independent.
powerful video and yes very inspiring
Ali, yes the video you mention is probably the most powerful and moving in the series (at least of the ones I have seen). We did a post on it at ATP here
Razi,
Politicians are definitely not exonerated. Every political leader has been a tyrant himself/herself including ZAB, NS, BB.
However, it is the army which is the absolute authority in Pakistan. The whole political setup is their dog and pony show.
If I were to pick one thing to fix in Pakistan which must happen in order to build a system supported by strong civilian institutions, it will be the return of army to it’s consitutional role.
I hope the moderators will not filter this statement, the army under ghaddar generals has become a deadly cancer afflicting our nation.
Nawab Bugti said, “It is better to mismange our affairs then to let others manage our affairs.” The civil society in Pakistan needs to become more proactive and assertive in reclaiming the country.
