For Pakistan those periods are still on.

Seriously, this country never fails to amuse and inspire me with its unique selling points in the form of sick landlords, their inhumane practices and their blasphemous beliefs of being the gods for their people/slaves.

Recently it has been found that a B**ti minister has a private jail
in Sui where he keeps, rather tortures, his slaves. The latest
entertainment that this minister got was out of ordering five of his
slaves to walk on fire. Out of which one was actually made to
attempt the endeavor.

If they refused to walk on fire, they were to receive death as a consequence. After the news was on media, one out of the several trapped prisoners was relieved. God knows what happened to him later, and what happened to the rest of the prisoners.
The minister’s own nephew told the media about this evil. I would
actually want to meet him, and acknowledge him for this. We are
fortunate to have such people in our political arena people who
care about the ordinary man instead of just taking him as something that is born to be exploited by them.

But you cannot help but wonder how such practices take place and are
hidden for so long from getting on to the macro level! Or is it that
the local people do not think there is anything wrong with whatever
cruelty is going on in the area?

The other thing which hit me was when I watched a video in which a
renowned person from the same clan was accusing Pervaiz Musharraf
for killing his forefather, and trying to dismantle their power and clan and what not. I mean seriously! If you torture innocent people like its your birthright, you ought to get more rather than just a fire!

Besides, whom are you fooling anyway? Yourselves undoubtedly.
Because even a half-minded person knows the difference between right and wrong, and humanity and evil. So if you think becoming gods of your premises and people will get you anywhere…it might be to hell for all you know.
