In the Garden of Good and Evil.


The world has evolved or should I say… has always been, a place where good has to pay and evil walks the crime. Not only walks but lives the rest of its life in Eden, is remembered as a hero and is awarded the best of the society. Most of the time, the Good goes, unnoticed. Usually the Good has to pay for the crimes that it had no concerned of. Hats off to those people that still pick Good as their path and live up to the hopes of the innocents. What would you do when you knew the passage doesn’t lead to a safe place? Obviously, if wise enough, you would abandon it. But the Goodfellas just don’t want to live by that rule. They live by the right. By this, they are successful in making a difference.

Clique, a name that came out as a synonym, for the word group. The idea behind it was to make a facebook page that would provide the users the material of a magazine. It isn’t yet in a shape that we can claim… unusual/different from the others. But we are trying to make it possible in any means we can. We need people who think they have ideas but could get a chance to present them in front of the others. So folks; Clique is your Representative. Send us what ever you have, in whatever shape you have with your name and some mini biography, to clique.it.here@gmail.com and we’ll bring it to the world. And this will be done regardless, of any regional differences.

What we need mostly, are the people, who are interested in the editorial stuff. Like checking mails, proof reading, monitoring… etc. not to forget the columnists. So pick up your pen, PC, MAC… whatever you like and deliver it to us. Let the world know what you think and who you are.

Until then, keep reading and promoting, “Clique”.

Restless

After going through half the city, in search of a PC cooler, having trouble with my almost dead bike and confronting an unwanted person, I thought to myself, what else can go wrong? And you know… it did. Just when I was about to sleep I kept getting calls and I was forced to wake up and deliver this issue to you.

What I saw this eve was a demonstration of how senseless, one could be. Ex President, Musharaf announced his participation in the APML (All Pakistan Muslim League), officially. It was a bit hysterical of him. But one could easily get over it without having a serious injury. You could easily count the hairs on his mustache and number of his supporters, by sitting right in front of your TV. I don’t want to go through the whole speech but why should we give this person another chance, who claims that he was misused and misguided by his advisors? Well, that’s what his advisors claim that they were misused by him. One way or the other, they both are trying their level best to make fool out of us.

They would have succeeded, if you ask me. Luckily, we don’t have enough time to consider this buffoonery. You want to know my favorite part of the speech? It was when he said that he will make Islam as the supreme law. I would have written “LOL” here, but it’s against the customs/etiquette of the article.

Barrister Aitzaz Ehsan defined this particular act as just to create a tension in the political environment. Let him enjoy his days, while he still can. I am pretty optimist that he won’t be enjoying it for long, just as his predecessors haven’t. It’s an explainable reaction when one is restless. It’s a shame that we don’t learn from our past. We keep on repeating the mistakes. It has become a hazardous habit and God knows where will it end?

Not to forget the recent speech of Zardari. You can clearly see the crowd. Musharaf sure did out number him on that. It’s hopeless to dwell on the dream that someday this government will get its senses. Still, there is something that can be done. The Midterm Elections. We have already passed the half term. Let them do their time (i.e. the other half). Believe me it will bring a good trend. But still there should be a midterm election. So that it could be analyzed, what the government had been doing all this time, just the way it’s being done in USA. It’s an opinion and no harm in considering one. I am sure we’ll get a chance to trap Mr. Smokey, aka, Musharaf. Until then, fingers crossed.
