A couple of weeks ago, Newsweek’s cover proclaimed that Pakistan is the most dangerous country in the world. It was only mildly disturbing, since constant immersion in hostile media does tend to numb one’s senses.
I came across this wonderful article a few days ago. Every once in a while, an article comes by that scrapes the callouses off your brain and reminds you why you feel so strongly about your country. My country. My country.
(And reminds you why you feel so personally embarrassed by, and distraught at, the complete and blatant lack of integrity that allows our one-time rivals to casually brand us a failed state.)
