I just read ‘Talat Hussain’s slap in the face’ & I like Aatekah Mir Khan’s write up.
Angelina Jolie made an honest report about what is happening in this country. That report cannot put any Pakistani in a state of shock, as we know how things are in this country. But Talat Hussain took upon himself the task of besmearing her reputation by digging about her past & calling her characterless & not just that, he thinks if Angelina Jolie had spoken of her deeds as a Pakistani she would have been stoned to death infinite times. And he also thinks that people like Angelina Jolie shouldn’t be given any honor.
God knows who gave him the right to judge this actress. And I just can’t believe that a reporter is talking about Rajm in this manner. This is not an Islamic punishment; it’s a Jewish punishment. Just because it’s on the statute book doesn’t mean that it should be applied on anyone Mr. Hussain doesn’t approve of. He needs to get his facts straight. You can see for yourself how Hudood laws & the god-damn Blasphemy law could be misused by people who only hate & here is one such prime example in which a journalist made a suggestion about it. This is how reporters play with the minds of people & pour their ideas into the heads which can't think.
Although Mr. Hussain is renowned a journalist, but it seems he doesn’t have the character to speak the truth or fight for it. He may regard Angelina Jolie as characterless, but I think she has more of a character than him. She made that report & she was quite shocked at the behavior of big shots when people are dying & have no food, but he's in a state of denial about Pakistan where he lives. She has done a lot of good deeds. She has provided home & love to kids. What has Mr. Hussain done so far? Why the hell is he judging a woman who is sensitive to the needs of others? Oh but then Mr. Hussain may not know such emotions & doesn’t have any clue that a person can help others without expecting anything in return. Angelina Jolie happens to have her heart at the right place. No wonder Mr. Hussain can only throw dirt on others. I think he’s a complex & he has that typical mentality. He just cannot stand a woman who is better than him in every way.
