Definition of word political hero in local context.

According to my left handed dictionary , HERO is defined as the person who dies in the first chapter of the Novel .But this hampers my search for hero who says he wants to live and by no means is contemplating martyrhood as he is waiting for world to look rozy via his second or umpteenth marriage after Naya Pakistan comes into being. Last time someone used word naya Pakistan it was Bhutto who was telling us that this smaller Pakistan is what we have to contend with .

This means we need to refocus our search and try to find someone who is ready to die in the first chapter , Qadri is in the last chapter of story and so is Nawaz so they cannot be the heroes of the novel . There is no banning on bearded heroes but Siraj ul Haq and Asfandyar defied martyr hood soon enough , rather Asfandyar was framed by Bhutto in blast case and Zia ul Haq take over saved him in the first chapter .

So only hero falling as hero in the first chapter can be a nameless suicide bomber which CH.Nisar says has entered Islamabad as this youthful figure is the only one prepared to die in the first chapter but nameless cannot become heroes especially when mission itself is unclear and bloody for others .

So luckily I have no heroes to follow and just trudge along the Novel of life . Let's see how others find their hero of political type .

Shaikh sb, I've been following your posts...I might disagree with many of the consiparcy theories but I have to agree that these 2 parties did not just hapen to be here , nor did they decide accidently to start thier rallies on the same day.
I'm a IK fan, but I was disillusioned during the first 3 days of dharna... It was clear to me that his actions resmebled someone who was seeking directions..he was killing time in the first few days.... his speeches didnot give any indications that how will he make Nawaz resign. WE heard things like "I'll announce something important tomorrow... why not today?"... The umpire's finger will go up saturday night....why not today?
These questions tell you that some in his party are leading him and have made him to belive that establishment will dispose of nawaz soon and he can go for relection.
In between, he did his usual "Bongi"..about the marriage issue. It seems the sparkling display of beauty arround him took the better of him.
Personally, this thing has become too obvious now as to who that hidden force is... Both sides should agree on a re-election date and call off this dharna..if we are to save the country.
