Pakistan's situation

A suicide bomber strikes in Islamabad; more than 15 dead. Five to Seven bomb explosions in Karachi; one killed and many injured.
What is happening in Pakistan? Are we seeing disintegration of a nation or breaking up of a country? Is it part of USA plan to give North West Frontier Province (NWFP) to Afghanistan and make an independent Balochistan? It seems so.
Being a born Pakistani is torturous. You love a country where you were born and raised. You feel hurt when it is becoming a failed state. The pinch of its being failure is hard to bear.
Majority of people in Pakistan are blaming General Pervaiz Musharraf for all this. This may be true but one should not forget the tyranical rule and real dictatorial rule of late General Mohammad Ziaul Haque who ignited interfaith rifts and supported those Madressahs that are the breeding ground of those students who are now called Talibans.
Not only Talibans, there are other groups like Sipah Sahaba, Jaish Mohammad, Lashkar Jhangvi and similar groups who are the outcome of US policies in Pakistan.
These groups were created to counter the fast spreading influence of Iranian revolution in 1979 and engage Shias, who were in favour of Sunni Shia friendships, into Sunni Shia fighting. This cancer of religious intolerance is the gift of Zia. But just because he was a Punjabi he is spared of the venom which is being thrown at Musharraf. I know this may not please some but this is my view. However, I will welcome comments and reaction.
Now, Pakistan has a population of over 150 million and sadly majority of them are illiterate. Lack of education, coupled with Saudi brand of Islamic fervor is the reason for these suicide attacks.
Do the so called islamic zealots ever think that killing innocent people in planting bombs in different places is a service to Islam? even targeting policemen in Islamabad, who are Muslims, is Islamic? Is blowing oneself on people who are themselves struggling to meet their ends is Islamic? Who told these stupid people to kill themselves and take innocent lives?
What kind of Islam they are following? American Islam?
Musharraf may be a reason for the present instability when he removed Iftikhar Chow dry from the post of chief justice. But, remember! he inherited corruption that is the hallmark of Pakistan ever since it was created in 1947 by the British.
Musharraf is not an angel. Even if an angel comes to Pakistan to steer it out of problems either he will be killed by Sipahs of different names as happened to Shaheed Arif Hussain Al-Hussaini, or he will also get corrupted by the army, beaurucrats and politicians. Pakistan is a place of corrupted, heartless people who are nothing but a curse on humanity, religion and mankind.
There is no future for Pakistan. It is destined to break and disintegrate. If nobody stops the beheading mentality as being done in Parachinar by crazy, bigoted, illiterate, US funded elements who think that Shias are worst enemy than Hindus, Christians and Jews, the country will not survive. They do not fight with US but they will fight Iranians. Such kind of approach will ultimately make Pakistan a state that once existed on map. The earthquake of Balakot couple of years ago was a reminder from Allah that if you kill innocent shias then this will happen to you.
I think people have not learnt this lesson. I fear more earthquakes to come.
As for me, I have no other place to go. I am in Canada. Here, I am nobody but a Muslim who is looked down. My being Pakistani is another disadvantage for my progress and survival. I am caught between devil and the deep sea. Have mercy on me.
