Leak that (universally) ruined the week...

Chalo jee. I never expected this when I was growing up, and of all the days in the week, it had to happen on Monday, the start of the week. I thought when I will grow up, everything would be nice and dry. Unlike childhood which is filled with embarrassing memory, I thought things would get better with time but then came school life where a lot of things leaked. Secret leaked, exams paper leaked, and even the results leaked. Finally, you step into your adult life (or like in 90s, they used to say "practical life") and you find out there are more leaks. Leaks that made adults leaks. If the world is really ending, I think its leaking towards the end.

WikiLeaks has surely made a quite mess for people. The problem lies with that USA had forefathers. Had they got any mother in between them, she would have told them that sharing is good. At least sharing honest opinions would have helped them and the world.

The Cablegate has made quite a tangled up mess. It has made leaders around the world, worried. Very worried, indeed but I guess nobody will learn anything from this leak. And if there are countries who are wise enough to investigate the actions mentioned in these leaks then Pakistan might not be the one in them. These leaks would end up on talk shows at dinner where they will cause nothing but sound pollution. The lack of confidence that our brotherly nations' leadership has shown towards Zardari and Sharif should make us ponder and question about the options we have for our next election. Picking any of the two would be grave mistake for Pakistan. Furthermore, we should really think about our stance in this "War against Terror". In 10 years, we have sacrificed a lot but we have never received any appreciation.

The information in these leaks are quite scary. Had they been printed as fiction, it would have been a bestseller in no time. These leaks are a true of reflection of time; a point upon which the leaders and the people of the world have to notice that there is too much hate prevailing in our hearts. We need to sort out our priorities, for our children and their children.

Khair, what happened, happened. In order to stay free and peaceful, the leaders should ALWAYS use a far-sighted sensibility rather than short-term greed so that their people can all have a happy period.
