The title is actually a question my cousin asked me when i told her that i had been robbed of my cellphone and cash for the 2nd time in this year.
What happened to Karachi???
What happened to Karachi is what is happening every where... people sitting quietly and letting the wrong doers do what they want. We as a nation (Muslims/Pakistanis) are not in this condition because of the people who ruin it or the people who do evil (as Einstein put it), but because of the millions who let this go on and do nothing about it.
We are all guilty to this whether we like it or not.
We can sit in our homes and turn our faces to the problems but what goes round comes round. Maybe some of us can "afford" to feel safe (for now) but what about those who aren't so blessed with money or power or location?
Are they not humans?
Are the innocent children dying in Waziristan of a lesser species than us? Don't they deserve to live like humans? Don't the Palestinians, Iraqis, or non-Kabul Afghans deserve to live in peace? Are those who live in Kashmir or the politically neutral people living in Karachi filth, that they can be abused all the time? are we a nation of mindless, heartless, soul less, respect less people who will keep watching enemies ruin us either through government, crime, direct war or any other means?
It hurts
Yes, and it hurts a lot, to see Muslims selling themselves and their faith short.
Why are we drowning in this inferiority complex? Why do we assume there is no solution to our problem? Why do we "assume" that Islam doesn't have solutions for these problems, and still claim in school that Islam is a complete way of life and a divine religion. Do we think God almighty has sent us here without proper guidance and will still account us? Or do we think that He has sent rules but they aren't enough to solve our problems.
State
A state must have a clear Ideology which it implements and teaches to its people and others do that it has faithful and supporting citizens. A state must protect its ideology and basic constitution at any cost. A state must protect its citizens. A state must choose to "do the right thing" instead of doing whats easy. A state should actively protect its borders and sovereignty from every opposition no matter how strong. A state should give pride to its citizens. A state should be responsible for providing all basic necessities like energy, water, food, shelter, security, health care.
"It is technically impossible for any other ideology other than Islam to form such a state!"

China .. the former USSR (and to some extent present Russia) .. North korea .. even semi communist states like Uzbekistan .. and secular states such as those in those in western europe fit to the definition of state that u hav given ...
what make Islamic state different from other states is just that its ideology comes from a divine source and all the laws implemented are divine.
interest and banking are allowed but all other ideologies. secondly ussr broke up, present day china does not provide all these things, and i am not awre of korea, will read about it soon.
Divie laws guiarantee stability in laws so that they arent changed by fooling the people into thinking the new law is good for them.
china allows private banking now, and im sure russia does too.
how they then provide every thing else in the long run is beyond me, since private banks always groups together to form larger banks which are more efficient in looting people's wealth.
socialists come pretty close but they are not a complete idelogy. Communism is one and it will always fail since people cant stay away from religion for long :)
