Javed Hashmi earned his respect before he joined PTI
He graced the party with his political credentials.
But He Failed, ..
He could not sell his philosophy to IK and SMQ + JT managed to sell theirs
A few months down the road you guys will be cursing SMQ and JH will be a saint once again...
We tend to mix things up. SMQ and JT being opportunists or people who are looking out for their interests has nothing to
do with JH. Hashmi has been a misfit. As people praise IK and consider him a saint and a revolutionary the same people consider
JH as a saint and someone who can't do no wrong but as with IK JH has baggage too - he has weaknesses and shortcomings. There were
lot of unanswered questions from his past too. His only credible credential listed is that he withstood Musharraf's torture and oppression.
But Saad Rafiq, Siddiq Farooq, Kh. Assif, pervaiz rashid all went through similar or even worse torture. Though we don't consider
them as stalwarts of democracy. Basically in Pakistan its hard to tell who is a true democrat or the bitter truth is that
there is no true democrat. JH is no exception!
Basically my point is that it is my personal opinion that JH has not been stable since he got sick (he had a stroke or something). I personally
though that he should retire and take it easy given his blunders - he shouldn't be blamed as it is obvious that sometime his thoughts are not
in his control. He says one thing and then backtracks. I think that everyone should have done him a favor by not dragging him along on these arduous
marches or dharnas. He should have been kept away from it all as a ceremonial president. They got him involved but at the same time didnt get him involved
in everything and they are paying for a person who is not 100% feeling jilted.
