Qazi Hussain Ahmed - Ameer J.I. has demanded a referendum to find out whether the Pakistanis want the Western culture or the Islamic way of life. Well done, Qazi Sahib. What a question? In fact what a trap for the gullible and the naive? You remind me of your party's once upon a time mentor Zia, asking the nation a similar question, "Do you want Islam in Pakistan, and if yes, then I will be your president for the next five years".
Which Muslim woman, Qazi Sahib, in her proper senses, would opt for Western culture and not the Islamic way of life? What choice are you giving the poor lady to choose from? If you are really sincere in knowing her real preference, please ask her, "Would you like to lead your life under a progressive and enlightened Islam or under the medieval and Taleban style of Islam? !
And you in your heart of hearts know it fully well that there will be a resounding vote in favour of the former.
