Mr. Iqbal has listed all the facts starting from the birth of Pakistan to its demarcation and creation of Bangladesh.  One could not agree more than what the facts are.  However, I would like to blame the civilian and military authorities in Islamabad for all the troubles and turmoils Pakistanis are going through on a daily basis.  If the Pakistani leaders have followed the intent and purpose of what Mr. Jinnah had in mind before separating from India, Pakistan would have flourished internally and externally the same way India and now Bangladesh have been experiencing.  The intent was to create a secular state and not a state predicated on a contorted version of Islam which is what the military leaders have been practicing since the birth of Pakistan.  Unfortunately, the civil governments in Islamabad have no say in this matter.  Majority of Pakistani revenue and donations from external sources are being spent on the military and no consideration is given to educate the masses left them being the subservient to the military and landlords of Pakistan.  With this on-going ideology and spread of jihadi element in the country, one cann't see a better outcome for Pakistan in the long run.
