Blasphemy: Mob burns man alive for burning Holy Quran – The Express Tribune

The changes in human behavior that gradually transformed it to express itself in an extreme form of expression, lacking of any logic or reason, would be the result of  the atmospheric conditions of the subject society. I was shock to read that a person had burnt alive in front of police in Pakistan which is clearly a contributing factor of an atmospheric conditions of that country which in my opinion, stems from  an apartheid system that has been propagated by the every successive governments of Pakistani ruling elite in Islamabad, which on one hand was to exploit religious sentiments of the masses where literacy rate is very low; to divert their attention of real problems of poverty, unemployment,corruption, mismanagement,  absence of human rights and justice; and on other hand to deny the very national identity of the people of the diverse cultures, religions and ethnicity.

If one look at their actions such as beheading opponents; hanging dead bodies on an electric poles; displaying images of their barbarity on videos; blowing-up buses and buildings filled with innocents people;  glorifying after becoming mass murderers by killing men, women, children, old and young in the name of Islam and to appease divine will. The main reason and root cause to my understanding: is the ideology, that based itself on exclusiveness, hate and discrimination. Is it possible that any given society which preach, propagate and support the values and norms that all in its substance and contents filled with hate and exclusiveness, yet to expect from it to become an integrating and cohesive?

I am certain that  Pakistan would not be able to stay intact if it continue to follow the course that had been adopted as a state policy to follow. Burning people to death shows the values of the subject society that has declined into the lowest of the low.  I would say, it has transformed from human-creature to a creature-of-barbarity-and-cruelty. There fore in my opinion, it is a Pakistan specific question which need to fight on its own terms with top priority, leaving aside the world opinion. The notion of cultivating of a negative force  to turn it into a strength against enemy had and has been  proved self-defeating and self-destructive. Pakistan itself already enjoying the fruits by relying on such notions.
