Christian children sold into slavery in Pakistan – "iSodomize"
The Times recently published an article on a mullah militant, belonging to an Islamic organization Jamaat ud Dawa [also recently banned by the US government, who labeled it as a terrorist organization], who was involved in child sexual abuse, and the sex trade of selling boys.
A foreign observer, unfamiliar with the happenings in the “Land of the Pure” that we call Pakistan, would be shocked out of his mind.
Me? I think there’s nothing new about this news story. BBC once did a 2 hour special on the brothels in the city of Peshawar, where boys not more than 16 were interviewed, all who were working as sex workers in shady motels in the city. Ever since I have been living in Pakistan [which has been 12 torturous, frustrating years], I have come across such stories time and again. Child sexual abuse, 8 year old boys with the profession of “sex workers” in brothels across Pakistan is rampant, especially in the northern areas of Pakistan, where sodomy is just a past time for the sex-starved men.
It would be unfair to say that only members of a certain province are involved in such heinous crimes, since this is an established trade, and not everyone belongs to a single area of Pakistan. However, this issue has been brought to the attention of the public and the forces that rule this nation, that child sexual abuse is RAMPANT here.
Of course, the government officials are too busy bending over for Uncle Sam, collecting bribes and building up the balances of their Swiss bank accounts to give a shit.
The public does not want to talk about it. Shove it under the carpet, do it in the privacy of your home or in a hotel where you can get a room and a little boy for company under US$1, just don’t involve us.
Apathy should be our national sport, not hockey.
It’s easy to blame someone for this. President Zia, with his Islamization process. The failed political system. The lack of infrastructure and funds.
Maybe playing the blame game should be our national sport.
But.
Explain that to a little boy, who cries every night, trapped under a 50 year old man, and wonders when it was, that all the happiness vanished.
