General Wesley
Clarke has entered in American politics as a breath of fresh air. He
is trying to bring sense to American politics by focusing back on
American constitution.
9/11 left American nation
confused, angry and frustrated. President Bush did what he could to
process the confusion, anger and frustration by going to Afghanistan
and Iraq. We wish he had exercised hurt American ego some other way.
General Wesley Clark wants to
repair hurt American ego by going back to the American constitution.
As a good soldier, he knows how important it is to follow the manual
--- and the manual of American politics is America's constitution.
The other day he was addressing
a gathering at Indiana State University. Someone asked him about
Patriot Act II. He made very telling remarks. He said we have a bill
of rights as part of our constitution. It is a very precious and
valuable document, therefore, I?ll tell former attorney general
Ashcraft (assuming he becomes president of the United States) to
freeze Patriot Act I and II.
A retired general has entered American politics
to remind American politicians that America has a constitution and
that constitution has an important part in it, which is called bill
of rights.
I heard these remarks from
General Wesley Clark and I was stunned.
Who is this general who is
reminding US politicians that United States has a constitution and
that constitution has bill of rights which is the most important
part of the constitution?
General Wesley Clarke is a good
general. He talks about the constitution. He talks about the Bill of
Rights --- and Bill of Rights is something, which every American
has, and which is essence of America.
General Wesley Clarke's remarks
made me think about 300 plus Pakistani generals. Pakistani generals
have dug in against the people of Pakistan; they have dug in against
the constitution of Pakistan; they have dug in against the Rights of
the people of Pakistan. And here is one general in America who is
re-assuring Americans against Attorney General Ashcraft's tyrannical
Patriot Act I and II by reminding them the Bill of Rights embedded
in the constitution of the United States.
Pakistani generals are holding
Pakistan back. They are the only hurdle in the way of Pakistan
becoming a real state --- a state where a constitution is above
everything and everyone.
United States is great because
it has generals like retired general Wesley Clarke. He is indeed a
good general. Pakistan has 300 plus generals but they are bad
generals because they have always violated and stood up against the
constitution of Pakistan.
Is there any Wesley Clarke in
Pakistan who can stand up and tell the people of Pakistan, yes,
there is a precious and valuable document in Pakistan and I?ll
defend this precious document --- the constitution of Pakistan ---
against LFO, because it guarantees some basic unalienable rights to
Pakistanis?
Is there any good dead or alive
(retired or serving) general in Pakistan who can stand for the
constitution of Pakistan?
