Kamran Khan interviews Justice (ret) Javed Iqbal, son of Allama Mohammad Iqbal, the poet who dreamed of Pakistan in 1940. Javed Iqbal says none of the founders of Pakistan, either Qaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah or Allama Iqbal, could have imagined even in their worst nightmares the Pakistan of today. Geo TV anchor of the show Kamran Khan says that Pakistan has lost 30, 000 lives in the last few years of war against Pakistani Taliban while only 15, 000 people had died in three wars Pakistan fought with its main foreign adversary India. Pakistan was invaded and attacked twice in the same week, he says, once by the US which violated Pakistani airspace and killed Osama bin Laden on Pakistani soil, without taking Pakistan authorities into confidence, not far from Pakistan military academy in Abbottabad and then by Pakistani Taliban. This, he says is unprecedented. Pakistan will just have to decide whether to take on the Taliban or surrender to them. Justice Iqbal blames the Mullahs for spreading hatred and demoting the vision of the founders of Pakistan. "Nafrat phailanay wala Mullah ha, or jitni nafratein Mullah nein phalien hein us say Haram ki buniyadein tuk hil gaien hein"- Allama Iqbal quoted by his son Justice (ret) Javed Iqbal | |||||
