"I just can not understand these behaviour patterns and they never change in our country."
"You mean we never learn from experience?"
"Precisely."
"But what works will work again."
"That's true but where is the self-respect, the self..."
"Hush. Don't get idealistic. Only the one with the power is allowed that."
"I guess."
"So I assume you were referring to our politicians, more accurately described as Lotas, when you said things don't change.
"Right."
"Politicians will always be politicians I say. And bureaucrats will always be bureaucrats - carrying out the will of the politicians and whoever they think holds the power."
"So you and me both support Nawaz Sharif's amendment on the non-movement of Lotas."
"I guess and don't forget bureaucrats are Lotas to who ever is up there at the top, and they aim to please with minimal use of their brains..."
"If you are referring to the death of the six year old in the minister's car..."
"Hasn't that already been hushed?"
"Or to the escape of Qazi Hussain Ahmed from Mansoora and his arrival at the venue he was going to give his anti-Musharraf speech..."
"Is mind boggling, don't you think? If a six year old's accidental murder can be hushed and a man as old as Qazi Sahib can escape with an entire police cordon, then one can just about understand why crime is on the rise in this country - crime, not what you can dismiss as terrorism."
"You reckon Qazi Sahib has an underground exit from Mansoora that no one in the police department knows about."
"Don't be facetious. The guy is a religious leader and..."
"Many a Muslim religious leader has had to go underground and..."
"Qazi Sahib built Mansoora in the good old days - when religion was not linked to terrorism and when the military was favourably inclined towards the Maulanas."
