Cannot imagine how frustrating it must be to be from Balochistan & have to constantly listen to patronising, armchair analyses & policy prescriptions from people sitting in Lahore & Islamabad with absolutely no clue what they're talking about...
I was rejected by rishta aunties for having a foreign degree because ‘itni azadi?’, for being employed because ‘iski tou zaban chalti hogi’, for not being rake thin because ‘larki sookhi honi chaiyay’, and for being over 25 because ‘ab tou divorced hee milay ga’.
Give me a break
@escap1ngirls Needed some time collecting evidence.
So after re-installing X, finding my Twitter password, updating the bio, and shooting my shot like this, i wonder what scale of crazy you're on? 7 or 9?
P.S. I'm looking to get obsessed over someone
Taliban have taken over polling stations in Tappi, N. Waziristan in my constituency NA-40. Three of our female polling agents escaped a blast in the morning. I had conveyed my concerns about the security situation in Tappi to the DRO which were ignored. ECP has to take notice.
Six working class hairdressers from Punjab were gunned down in cold blood in Mir Ali, N. Waziristan which is highly condemnable and very saddening. Our condolences to the families of the victims. The state has abdicated it's responsibility of protecting citizens in our region.
This is the famous picture of Faris Odeh, a fifteen-year-old Gazan boy killed Nov. 9, 2000, ten days after this photo. According to the NYT, "His friends said he was shot while crouching down to pick up a stone. He was so close to an Israeli tank, they said, that they could not drag his still body to an ambulance for more than an hour. The hospital pronounced him dead on arrival." Does this picture make your uncomfortable? Do you think I should not show it? It makes me cry each time I see it, not because I am sad for his death, but because I cannot fathom the courage he had. I know of no culture, no religion, that would not praise him as a martyr (a Greek loanword into English meaning literally the same thing as shaheed: witness). If you have a problem with this photo, I urge you to ask yourself why.
