his world created by God is very strange. There was a time when a strange and strange forest came into existence. Like every forest, lions ruled here for the most part. But then the leopard made such a plan that everything turned upside down. Whether it was the guardians of the forest or the sheep and goats of the forest, all the leopards started singing. It seemed that the leopard had some magic that enchanted everyone with this magic. The lion kept saying here and there that all this wonder was due to a leopard. The leopard was the hero of the jungle. The lion was a prisoner. The lion’s few companions were scattered. The prisoner was the lion’s brother, but he ran from one pole to another to get the prisoner lion out of the net. What could God do in such a situation? The hawk had a fight with a red-eyed hawk. When the hawk went to tell the leopard about his house, the leopard became angry with him and expelled him from his duty of surveillance. Before that, the hawk was a strong supporter of the leopard, but this incident turned him away from the ruling leopard. The leopard did not understand that this was not an ordinary hawk, but a special hawk. He carried out whatever he set his mind to. This blunder by the leopard was such that the decline of the leopard began. Walls began to be built around him. Then a time came when the leopard was not only relieved of his rule, but was also arrested and now he started living at the mercy of the hawk.
This forest was initially like an ordinary forest, but then a war broke out between the lion and the leopard that left nothing for the lion and the leopard to die. The leopard thought that hawks only fly in the air. If I kill the lion, I will become the sole ruler of the forest. But the fight between the lion and the leopard aroused the fierceness of nature to such an extent that the hawks grew so big that even if the lion and the leopard met, the hawk alone would dominate them. Now many sheep and goats are hoping that something will come out of the negotiations between the lion and the leopard’s companions. Now the game is in the hands of the hawk. The lion and the leopard are now the so-called rulers of the forest. The giant hawks bring the so-called lion and leopard in front whenever they want, and whenever they want, the hawks themselves descend into the forest and start running the forest system.
The captive leopard used to think that he was popular in the jungle, who could keep him captive? But in this jungle, the lions and leopards had surrendered all their power to the hawks in the fighting and marketing. Now it was very difficult to take back the power from the hawks. The wings of the hawks had also spread so much that it was impossible to cut them. The leopard, through public sentiment, called the sheep and goats several times and even used a stick of goon, but the system did not crawl on its head. Then the table was set for negotiations, but despite decorating the flower beds, the fragrance of the flowers did not come out. Only the pricking of thorns could be felt. What were the negotiations? They were an excuse to trap each other. The forest government seemed ready to release the leopard, but with the condition of closing the leopard’s mouth, as if a new NRO would be issued, which would nullify the entire narrative of the leopard’s past. On the other hand, the leopards are demanding that the system that the hawks had worked so hard to build collapse on its own. The intentions of both sides were not good, so the chances of the negotiations being successful were very low. The hawk was the strongest of the strong, and the lion shared his strength, but his brother’s four legs and feet were tied. Everything was done only after consulting the hawks.
The leopard’s companions thought of seeking help from the new leopard of the world’s largest forest. In his election campaign, he was pleased by giving him donations, promises were made, and now it is being thought that when the world’s largest forest sends a message to the hawks, the hawks will be afraid and will believe everything and release the leopard under pressure. But the leopard did not know that the hawks have advanced so far that even the super jungle doubts that the hawks’ missiles will not reach us. The hawks are assuring us that nothing like that is happening, but the people of the world’s largest forest are not ready to believe this.
The ambitions of the hawks are not limited to the local forest. They also keep a close eye on global politics and are also preparing what the strategy should be for both reconciliation and hostility. On the one hand, messages are being sent to the new global hawk through various channels. Sometimes they are holding correspondence with the Saudi and sometimes the American hawks. A very important federal minister will also attend the ceremony to take over the reigns of the American hawk.
Finally, it is submitted that the defeat of a leopard and a lion does not happen just like that. Where the strategy and force of the hawk worked, there is also an unwise fight between a lion and a leopard. Even now, if the leopard and the lion understand, there may be a slight change in the situation. The lion has a problem of legality, while the leopard has a problem of acceptance. If the lion and the leopard act reasonably, communicate rationally, both make sacrifices, both give space to each other, and show flexibility, then everyone’s pain and suffering can be alleviated.
The leopard should understand that in the fight between power and the oppressed, other powers support power instead of standing with justice. The agreement between Benazir Bhutto and General Musharraf was made by the United States, Britain and the United Arab Emirates. Security was necessary to guarantee their lives, but the American Vice President Dick Cheney forgot all the promises of his government and at the last moment supported General Musharraf, leaving Benazir Bhutto alone to be shot. The leopard has very little chance of fulfilling its hopes from the global super jungle.
