Malala: An imminent politician with positively practical past but maliciously programmed future

                                       Malala Yousafzai Signs With UTA – Variety

Pakistan has witnessed in the hearts of its general public, the long and immensely oscillating waves of ultra-extremism and deeply normalized political emotions in the past few decades amid Afghan Jihad, post 9/11 and current relation of US with the militant group Afghan Taliban. But what the socio-political analysts sitting at Langley or SIS Building miscalculate most often is the amplitude and nature of the 'normal' political emotions of the people of Pakistan. 

Every time the west tries to push Pakistan to some point of its own advantage like against the Soviet Union during its invasion of Afghanistan or war against militants in Afghanistan post 9/11, a lag occurs in the emotional sequence of people of Pakistan.

Like they were still recovering from the wave of ultra-extremism after the death of Gen Zia ul Haq and end of Afghan Jihad during the alternating and relatively less extreme and even nearly secular governments of Benazir Bhutto and Nawaz Sharif, and 9/11 occurred and the US immediately came to Pakistan again, for armed help. Operations against Afghan Taliban, about whom a large number of Pakistanis held political sympathy, again jumbled the political line of sense relating to extremism, of people of Pakistan.

This wax and wane of induced political emotions have made Pakistanis quite sensitive and prompt whenever it comes to their views regarding the political system of their country and the approach and ideology of their political leaders. So it is going to be certainly a hell fun when the western actors will launch the Nobel Laureate Malala Yousufzai as a politician in Pakistan, in this very decade.

As far as the non-controversial and almost clear past and base of Malala is concerned, only one question can be raised upon it. And it is that which of her "achievement", all of her work, organizations and stuff, is hard for any other common person to accomplish when whole of the Western World and numerous inclined NGOs are pampering you in every aspect and respect.

One possible answer to this maybe is graduating from Oxford.

It will be worth seeing how common Pakistanis will receive this fresh leftist addition to their country's politics, who form the core of the political system of Pakistan, and whose majority towards rejecting the terminal leftist parties and ultra-rightists is increasing swiftly and simultaneously, and they are shifting towards non-orthodox moderate fundamentalist political circles like that of the rightist portion of PTI or that specific part of PMLN.


The far-right and far-left both are far from the actual and practical Islam, not just the far right. This is what the other thing the analysts and think tanks sitting at Langley and others misestimate. And whenever common Muslims start moving towards the actual teachings of their religion, they spurn both. So it is quite hard to influence a dominantly religious Islamic circle through an apparently leftist personality, and when the majority of the people already denounce that personality. The whole investment seems to be desertion.
