    FREEDOM Bilbar: What the fuck is this? William Shakespeare. Michael: dont start it.

    Preface

    Popular front or in less rhetorical and humanlike terms a group or collection or association of people with different ideas however combined for the advancement for a certain cause are vital for the propagation of the ideals of equality, freedom and justice among others.

    History has shown the effectiveness of these groups especially in societies which are ex-tremely segregated and traditionally dont get along together. Usually, popular fronts may be applied and created in order to unite societies and people which dont get along together. This play looks at the importance of a popular front may and its uses in society especially to unite people of different classes and different ideas. This idea of there being a popular front encourages people of different ideas and different perceptions and interest to join together for the advancement of a certain ideal.

    For a long time, religion has divided socialists from religious people although they may be off the same cause. By using a popular front, well-meaning people of all religions, view points and ideas may come together. The idea of a popular front is to have constructive dis-cussions and constructive action.

    Will this new popular front of high school and college students be sustained or will it be de-stroyed? I welcome you to go behind the scenes of a multi-cultural popular front. See the arguments which happen between different people and find out how they decide to solve them.

    {The prince and the old man where in their private jet flying from Paris to Riyadh. The prince had

    emerald rings on every single finger. The old man next to him spoke in a French accent}

    Old man: In France, in paris, we had this same problem. But then we found a solution.

    Prince: No, no, no. I dont want a revolution. I didnt hire you for this. Old man: Wait, relax! Remember you are not hiring me, I am hiring you! Prince: Sorry, I am only use to talking to my people.

    Old man: It wasnt a revolution! It was a change of power.

    Prince: I dont want to give my kingdom up to Ayatollah. That guy is a Shite!

    Old man: No no not that. You dont have to do that. Remember that movie 3 idiots.

    Prince: The one with me, you and whose that grandpa Mubarak sitting together yeah!

    {The old man put his hand on his head}

    Prince: You mean the movie

    Old man: Yes, that one! In that movie remember that guy said. That all you need. All you need is

    to change your clothes in order to enter a new world or something like that I cant remember.

    Prince: So you telling me that my son need to change his clothes in front of national television to

    get better grades. That can happen any time, wait I call him right now!

    Old man: No, no, no! You change your appearance. You dont change your clothes directly in front

    of national television.

    Prince: So what do I do get a make up artist?

    Old man: Yes, and that make up artist is called a corporation. You see these corporations are able

    to change your appearance very easily.

    Prince: So if I get a thinner nose and a Mr. Bean face than my people are going to obey me.

    Old man: No. How should I explain this? Let me get a plastic model

    {From the cupboard the old man got out an inflatable man. After 10 minutes, he managed to get a

    kufiyeh tied around to his head}/

    Old man: This is you. Prince: I dont have a blue face. Old man: This is your people.{he took out his shoes}

    Prince: My people look worse than that Old man: And then they slap you in the face Prince: You forgot that if they slap me they go to jail.

    Old man: You see people are like cockroaches. Ever go anywhere in the world. Nowadays, you

    cannot control them. You see it is becoming harder and harder. You find it harder and harder to

    deny people a visa to Mecca.

    Prince: I see carry on... Old man: There is one simple solution. Change your title from Prince to CEO. Prince: I see. Than

    I can come around to Wall Street and bang the bell.

    Old man: Exactly and then. You make a ruling party which installs fake elections. All you have to

    do is make people believe in a stupid magic trick. In one part of the country, people are tired, sit-

    ting in a line waiting to put a piece of paper into a box. You, will be there. Like doesnt matter

    whatever they will be doing. I will be the ultimate judge.

    Prince: I see than I wear business suit.

    Old man: True. All the people who are against you. Even the liberal ones. You can brand them as

    traitors.

    Prince: Irhabi

    Old man: Yes, just call them irhabi. Then you can smile and watch how the world falls into your

    hands. Some idiotic liberals will start to love you as they think youll be changed. But you know

    that and I also know that. I will then make up some random attacks on people known as liberals.

    You then pretend to worry and condemn them.

    {The prince went to the toilet. He couldnt open the door. Inside from the toilet was a recorded

    voice, you are hacked, you are hacked.}

    Prince: Quickly FBI Opened the door.

    {Three or four officers with military suits busted the door open. On the walls of the toilet it was

    written You are hacked.}

    {On a pole there was a flag with a green background and two stars and a crescent in the middle.

    The pole was in a cricket field. In front of the cricket field was a gigantic lake with a small bridge}

    Akbar: Ek tha mazdoor aur ek tha kissam. Unka ek balatkar tha. Bahut sare hai unka balatkari. Wo

    abhi bi mojud hai. Lakeen ek ya do abhi ek gantae kay bad es lake ko cross karange gay.

    Sachin: Meri phone nay bola mujko ki Philip Hughes mar gaya eik boll se.

    Bilbar: Wa wa! To tu mujko bol ra he ki unkae balatkar karna ka hathyar mere cricket bat se be

    bara hai.

    Akbar: Nahi. Bas unke tariqua balatkar karnae kai bahut ache hai. Bilbar: Julian nay bas abhi kuch

    {Sachin came closer to Akbar}

    Akbar: Dikha mujko kaisa mara wo.

    Sachin: Abh kaun hai cricket ki aulat.

    Akbar: Leiken inquilab ki awaz metha karnai kilyah. Habib: Mujko eik joke yad ayah. Akbar: Suna

    Habib:Kyoki inquilab eik methai hai inquilabi walo kilya. Inquilab wala gana khabibi nahi

    quatham hota hai. Kyoki inquilab wali shola khabibi nahi bujti hai. Inquilab wo alag ganna hai

    juiska rus ethna metha hota hai. Or uski laher ithni garhee hoti hai. Ki har adhiraj ki kursi jala da

    tha hai aur jo rothe hai azadi kilya unko utha data hai yeh undhere hokom ke khilaf.

    Sachin: Mai abhi ganaa lata hoo. Sarak pei eik juice ki dukan hai. Mujko kuch metha chaiye.

    Akbar: Inquilab gaana nahi mang ta hai. Wo samajdari mang ta hai. Jashn-e-inquilab banah tei hai

    dimak se. Jo janat kilyah acha hai, jo mazdoora ki takhlif kum qarta hai, jo mamuli insan ki

    behsati kum karta hai. Wo sabh eik inquilabi ka kam hai.

    Sachin: Meri samajwadi tera plan kya hai.

    Akbar: Tu Sachin About baneh ga. Jub mei signal doong ga tub tum motae kutae ko Philip banaa

    do.

    Bilbar: Leikhan, moti kuta ko aur Gorae kotae ko eik dusra ko deikh na nahi chai yeh. Kyoki agar

    {Akbar, Bilbar, Sachin, Habib and Fatima were sitting on a chairs staring at the TV.} {The news-

    woman was in her usual uniform. It was CNN} Akbar: Tu nay Beyond Closed Doors kabibhi para hai! {Akbar put on the glasses of reality}

    Akbar: Try this on! {Michael put the glasses of reality on} Michael: Interesting. A man carrying two balloons and geting high on helium.

    {An advert came on}

    Second man with balloons: Hello! I am a rich man. In French, I am called the bourgeoisie. In Hin-

    di and Urdu Amir. In other words, Bastard! That is right, in order to order one of my personal gifts

    shit in your toilet and smile while you put your face right in it. In other words, you are never going

    to get it. Being a feminist, if you so desire. If any women wants to get more money. Its very sim-

    ple! Come in a swimsuit to my front door and spent a whole hour of me helping you take the

    swimsuit off. I will help you earn more money and I will have fun and so will you. Win-win situa-

    tion

    {another advert}

    Another man with balloons: What you are saying is completely wrong? Men need to treat women

    better. If you want to treat your women better go to a good beach in phuket. Fuck her there while

    listening to Lil Wayne music. Put yourself in debt. Come back in this brainwashed society and go

    back to work because you know that you are never going to come here ever. You are never going

    to own the world. You better know that.

    {third advert}

  • Azadidome FIction LitERATURE 29th of June 2015

    Third man with balloons: No no no. There is a way out of it. All you have to do is give up more

    time in your life. I mean waste. Put a business suite on and come to a place called office. You

    wont be called worker. You will have a new nickname, employee,. In this one, you would be

    able to do anything except be free. We will sell you an overpriced food product which was inten-

    tionally made in system of oppression and cycle of continuous struggle of the proletariat. A new

    outcome. You will be able to fuck more whores. You will get the props to act like me. You know

    business suite and some money. You will be promoted from field negro to house negro. You will

    be the shepherd that run the sheep around. But you depend on me. Remember that.

    {Bilbar walks in and presses the remote}

    Bilbar: If we have to do something. We must take direct action. The only way to advance the situa-

    tion the poor man and the agressive system of oppression that the rich impose and the poor. We the

    people. Peasant, Proliteriat. Mazdoor. Kissam. Have to unify via timed congresses which aim to

    find simiarities and then form a realistic approach. These realistic approaches have to be aimed at

    with diligence and conviction. Our rhethoric has to become even more concise. Our actions need

    to be on amplifiers.

    Michael: Well, well, well! That would be good. But I came here for an internship thats it. Not for

    some bloody inquilab.

    Bilbar: You benifit from the poor. If we werent starving then you wont get a university offer.

    Fatima: He is right you need to try to understand the culture and the contininous dangers that we

    live in. In order to help us.

    Michael: At least I am not named after some religious prophet

    Fatima: You are only named after a coward.

    Akbar: If you want to really change Pakistan then why are you still here? Michael: Well so are

    you.

    Bilbar: We are here cause we are tired and we have worked the entire day working at small shops,

    getting money called zakat and investing that collectively into large projects.

    Fatima: By the way Michael you dont understand what I been through. No, you wont. you never

    will. You dont understand what it is like trying to increase the self-esteem of our people while

    getting hated on by the entire world and media.

    Michael: I shouldnt have signed that deal with you guys. The one for the merger of my British

    NGO with your islamic rolling-the-floor

    Fatima: Its hip-hop Michael: Or your Samajawadi zakat for Christian and Muslim unity neighbourhood

    Akbar: You dont discriminate your aid to people based on their religion. I am a secular like you.

    But people deserve to get food and shelter doesnt matter if they believe in a religion or not.

    Michael: I forgot your urdu blabbering ass too Bilbar: I teach urdu dumb motherfucker. To the people. So that they can stand up. {Bilbar picked

    up a book} Bilbar: What the fuck is this? William Shakespeare. Michael: dont start it. Bilbar: Real good investment of peoples money Michael: Its me remembering my culture back at home.

    Sachin: Shifts in values follows development and technology. You need to use your money to

    build applications about Shakespeare in Urdu.

    Michael: Shut up

    Sachin: I came in because you told me that my technological skills could help make my country a

    better place

    {Hearing loud sound, Habib comes} Habib: Did you see CNN the trio were shit after all? The dams at shore are all blocked with a heap

    full of shit. I got a picture on twitter.

    {Hearing Habibs voice, Haytham arrives}

    Haytham: He could have taken too much of an analgesic what is that called Magnesium Hydrox-

    ide

    Bilbar: Hum kam kar ra hei.

    {Habib and Sachin walk away}

    {Michael picks up a book with a title called Diary.}

    Bilbar: this is not right.

    Michael: I dont want to hear all that bullshit. I am not in a mosque i dont need to hear about

    haram.

    Michael: Dear Diary, We have just made a coalition with a new NGO. The guy the head has Can-

    cer.

    Akbar: Told you

    Michael: Why didnt you tell me that you knew I had cancer?

    Fatima: Since you started read on.

    Michael: That man is like a little kid stepping on everything and challenging everything on his

    path. He reminds of us. How the three of us, came up from an orphan..

    Bilbar: Urdu blabbering bastard was an orphan

    Michael: We must find a way to unite together. He doesnt understand that our orphan manager

    grew us with Habib Jalib literature. We left when we woke up and realized that he hung himself

    because he couldnt pay the rent for the orphanage.

    Bilbar: through the streets we ran begged worked multiple jobs. All of this came after years of

    hard- work.

    Michael: According to the doctor, the three of us are going to say quda hafiz tomorrow. After the

    cancer has spread throughout our whole body. We hope that this young man can help us transfom

    our dream of a free, self-sufficient, peaceful and equal south asia into a reality

    {Akbar, Bilbar and Fatima falls down} Michael: Only if I had time {Michaels body turns black} {Sachin, Habib and Haytham curiously pick up the book, which Michael dropped}

  • Azadidome FIction LitERATURE 29th of June 2015

    Narrator: The three curious minds leave. Thinking that their elders have taken a rest. Unaware of

    the arguements, sacrifices and wasted time of the people older than them. What they dont realize

    is that their elders are going for infinite sleep still explored by most religions. After all they are just

    curious minds. Soon the trio leave the household and vow to make a difference in the world.

    {Sachin, Habib and Haytham are on a stage with thousands of people in front of them}

    Sachin: I dare you to be brave

    Habib: You can be us. All of you. Believe in yourself.

    Haytham: Be curious, explore truth. Never let the boundary of assumptions prevent you from

    knocking over lies

    Sachin: Say it together with me. Sachin, Habib and Haytham: Inquilab Zindabad

    narrator: I guess its just history repeated
