New Delhi, Feb. 23 -- Recently, Pakistan's government employees staged a protest in Islamabad demanding a raise in wages. The government responded with a overwhelming teargas shower on the protesters. When asked to justify such a brutal response, the Home Minister said, we had a vast stock of the gas in store so we decided to test its potency in a live situation. Only in Pakistan could this explanation fly, but then Pakistan is a unique laboratory created to test the efficacy of the World's first Islamic State and its failure has not yet been acknowledged.
