Milking a crow

It is inconceivable to milk a crow, no matter how hard one tries and how much sophisticated genetic technology you apply. It simply does not work that way. That is the rule of nature.
But crows have a remarkable genetic sociological quality to offer: their communal loyalty to their own kind is unflinching, absolute and amazingly superior to human conduct. The Punjabi proverb: Pra prava dai, kah kahva dai (brothers loyalty to brothers - just as crows are loyal to each other) is a testament of their perfect sense of communal belonging. Compared to crows, the human fraternity is seriously flawed. Nations have fought each other for their specific national self-interest, communities have fought against communities, religions have waged wars against each other, and, contrary to the Punjabi proverb, brothers have cheated, betrayed and deceived brothers. The powerful have oppressed the weak, human beings have exploited each other in every sense of the word, even the battle between the sexes has gone on indefinitely, and the mental, emotional, financial, physical, socio-psychological abuse amongst individuals has remained unabated in the annals of human history.
But, perhaps, the worst harm done to human fraternity is inflicted by the "Politics of the powers that be." "Politics" is the art and craft of serving people - the masses that together form the basis of a nation: the collectivity of human souls - children, old, young, men, women, sick, impoverished, affluent, the weak and the strong who sometimes by choice and mostly by the accidents of history form a union to live and die in a defined geographical boundary called a country. A fundamental purpose of "Politics" is to serve a country - by serving its people. The slogans of "my beloved country", "patriotic nationalism" and "Pakistan first" etc. are meaningless until and unless the citizens of a country are served well. Politicians, in the ultimate analysis, are the servants of people - they are not to govern (in the classic colonial mindset), but they are and should be in the business of providing welfare, cohesion and tenacity to their countrymen. Loyalty, in every sense of the word, be it emotional, intellectual, philosophical or in the managerial capabilities directed to deliver "welfare" to the people, is the ultimate test of political leadership. Without proven national "loyalty," a political leadership stands annulled.
In the present day Pakistan, the incumbent political leadership's "loyalty" to its nation has been undermined by a series of political events and their alarming consequences. A climate of doubt, perpetual incertitude and antagonism prevails all over the country. A hopelessness has gripped the entire nation as contradictory policy statements emit from the corridors of political power in Islamabad.
American Senator Feinstein publicly claims that unmanned US "drones" are being flown out of Pakistan. The missile strikes by these "drones" are killing Pakistani citizens and causing the destruction of their homes and lives. Former Chief of the Army Staff, General (retd) Aslam Beg, says that these "drones" are being flown out of an American (CIA operated) airbase near Tarbela. General Beg further states that these "drone" flights are being conducted with the explicit knowledge and approval of the Pakistani leadership in Islamabad. The incumbent Pakistan's government denies that it has entered into an agreement with the US government, or given permission or even has the prior knowledge of "drones" operations. The administration in Islamabad, in fact, lodges regular protests against "drones" missile attacks inside Pakistani territory and has even summoned the American ambassador to the foreign office to officially lodge a protest against repeated violations of its national sovereignty.
