Waziristan.. Luck Helps The Brave!
Author: Rizwan Yahya
I am enjoying it, the twists of people sitting in their posh drawing rooms, looking at their 60 Plasma TVs, rubbing sweat from their cultivated heads, wishing it was all a nightmare, they are not watching this, it is not real, someone has to wake them up, someone has to tell them thats not real, their breathing has gone erratic, and their hearts are drowning with what future holds for them, or even if it holds anything.
On the other hand, there are other people, sitting in a large house in the Capital of the country, watching the television in horror, watching the history turning, watching a new history in making, watching their masters plans getting destroyed, watching possible ending of their earning spree.
What has Khan done? Why? Why did he do it? Where did we go wrong? Questions after questions are questions coming to their mind.
Then the red telephone rings
Yes Sir
What the hell is going on there? Dont you know its election time here? What are we paying you for?
Sorry Sir, we tried our best, we tried to bribe him, we tried to make him join forces with your second choice, we paid the anchors and analysts, we even bought the whole media centres, but he didnt budge, we even tried to threaten him, told him about possible suicide attacks, told him that there are 9 suicide bombers ready to attack
What did he say?
He asked for their mobile numbers sir
Mobiles?
Cell numbers sir, cell numbers
Didnt you threaten the followers?
They are crazy sir, just like him, they dont listen, they are the youth of the country
Ahaan.. So what are you doing now?
I have asked the political agents and the local governments to stop him before he goes to Waziristan
You Stupids! What is it going to do now?? Its already all over the world media, whatever brain washing we
had done over a decade it has started getting nullified.. You are all useless crap
Sir we are not crap.. Im president of a country
Shut up, ensure you have your plane always ready, and tell that other jack to get himself ready too.. you might have to fly out pretty soon.. Darn it! Now I have to take care of you two useless people too
Click.
The shades on his face are changing colours, he never thought this day will come..
Call that Liar here He shouted at the door man
Yes Sir.. a prompt reply came.. Who sir?..
That goof who calls himself interior minister..
Oh okay Sir
Seconds later..
Yes Sir?
What the hell is happening? You told me he cant go there, you ensured that if he went, there wont be more than 100 or maximum 200 people, why are there thousands of them?
The guys head went down in shame.. He had failed his master.. And masters of his master..
Ring Ring.. the black telephone this time..
Yes
He shouted in the receiver..
Its me.. You ensured me that Ill be the next Prime Minister.. You promised.. I saved you so many times and now your people failed.. I have lost credibility.. I cant go there.. Its too dangerous
Oh its you No.. Your people failed miserably too.. You couldnt even control the flow of media.. You told me that it has been taken care of
Yes I took care of it.. didnt you see the programmes for last few weeks?
Then how come there are thousands of people there right now with more coming?
Dont know.. I think Khan knows magic
Shut up! You are all useless, I let you have the province you wanted, even promised you the premiership next time, and you couldnt control this new tsunami?
Dont worry.. You can come to my house.. Ive asked my builders to raise the house 20 feet high, and build the walls a bit higher
Oh you doofus.. Im talking about this peoples wave going towards Waziristan, not the floods of Baluchistan, Sindh and Punjab
Oh okay, sorry big brother
Damn! I can keep writing this conversation whole night.. Im enjoying it.. But the bottom line is that Khan has thrown a stone in the stationary water and well see the ripple effect all over the world. Kudos to Khan and team for not stopping, getting afraid, or kneeling down to pressure.
Waziristan has opened a wormhole of events, a ripple effect all over the world. Questions are being asked, concerns are being shown, and pressure is going to increase. This is what he wished for, this is what he wanted, and this is what he will get. Luck helps the brave, and brave he is! Without any shadow of doubt.
