I am not protecting or justifying the ulema, but the institutions and organizations who regulate and control such issues are failing and have failed.
The juridiciary system can't really do anything because the big mafia running the industry have enough money to bribe the system.

From my own sources; meaning few familymembers who are members of Jamat-e-Islami, according to Jamat-e-Islami's own risala;
Jamat-e-Islami have burned so many such videos in Peshawer but, the videos are smuggled and distributed to "underground-agents", who sell them to customers.

Ulema; regardless who they were and which religious line they were from; have spoken and demonstrated against such perverted acts many years ago, but they were stamped on this issue as backwarded and primitive for the modern and progressive media by the mediachannels themselves.
Which in reality, it was a sidetrack and to manipulate the masses that vulgarity and perversion was "ok". And everyone against this were the "badguys". And if anyone was with the ulema then it meant an individual was siding with the taliban because those were early years of the war against terror so that became a mixed mess in the complicated issue.

I am confident ulemas want to get their point of views loud and clear to the masses, but they aren't getting enough airtime on the mediachannels.
E.g. in 2008, when I was in Pakistan there was a programme with Samina Peerzada; a very famous Pakistani actress and programme host on PTV; at her programme an alim was speaking about "haqq and batin", he was just to begin the meaning of his point in details about the present situation of Pakistan at that time; when she cut him off!
I clearly remember, he only got less that 2 minutes "freedom of speech" in the whole programme. He just sat there while all the other guests, who were liberal and secular in their opinions spoke out clearly. While that alim just sat there; only answered very brief like he was redundant in the show.
The host's job was to balance every point of view and getting every group in the society together, so the viewers got a clearer picture "we are all the same, we have different opnions, but we have the same basic opinion in reality".

My point is, the question should be do the ulema get enough airtime on the mediachannels, how are they themselves prepared before any interview and how are their rhetorical approach; why aren't they coming forward in the society; is it based upon the media's interest to invite them as shorttermed guests or are the media channels only interested in the opposite of what the ulemas say.
Lets all be honest, with so much porn, sex, vulgarity, perversion, under the influence of alcohol, drugs and high domestic violence and being violent against each other; which is filled in the Pakistani society - how many of the ignorant masses, the mediachannels, the politicians, the people who own the mediachannels, the people related to Pakistani showbiz really really really want to get back on the right path and track, since they know in their deep inner hearts none of such would help them in their graves or the Hereafter.
None. Period. It's all about living in a practical deception and manipulating with other peoples' minds that join "our way everything is fine, nothing is wrong or don't let your over consciousness ruin your life". "Knock yourself out and enjoy - but it's your own responsibility what you do".
Another side issue:
A big marathon for women was held in Lahore, in 2001/2002; women wore skirts or less clothes. This was the first time such event was held in the public - people from Lahore demonstrated against the marathon because it was vulgarity that was being shown, the figures of female bodies was actually to be seen.
What happend was the people demonstrating against the event, were laughed and mocked at, and many were arrested for demonstrating against the marathon.

And now in present time, every single Pakistani channel is showing women wearing less clothes and showing more skin.
For showbiz it means more viewers, the more viewers the more popularity, the more popularity the more domination in the Pakistani showbiz and domination in the minds of the masses.
The ones who are against such issue are in the minority group because everyone is manipulated; they can't be selfcritical of how the Pakistani channels can effect them in their social daily lives so they become the living example of the donkey and the carrot. it is difficult to discuss with manipulated Pakistanis. I've tried that and now I focus on myself, my family and those people who can agree that our future generations wont end up as uncritcal objects.
