“The results also confirmed the provincialism of Pakistan politics. The two major winners were the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) and the Awami League (AL). The AL secured 160 seats of the National Assembly out of which only seven candidates belonged to West Pakistan. However, the AL could not win...
The reality is that the country will die - slowly or quickly - if the cancer is not removed.
Vengeance AND a tiny sliver of hope that the country will survive - I’ll take that.
My significant other often likes to remind me that if I EVER betray her trust, she’ll hunt me (and the person I betrayed her with) down and dance on our ashes.
I get it.
No questions about that SQ8, and call it petty vengeance or vindictiveness if you will, but the Faujeets have played a major role in bringing the country to its current state and even worse, they have betrayed an almost blind trust and loyalty and I want to see them pay for their actions and...
Well then that institution is a cancer. Just because the surgery to remove the cancer is dangerous does not mean it should not be attempted, because the alternative is that this cancer (if left untreated) WILL eventually destroy the country.
That institution (the Pakistan Army) is only ‘working’ to protect its own interests and influence at the expense of the rest of the country and doing so by violating the constitution, rigging elections, manipulating the political process, judiciary, law enforcement and torturing and killing...
The law was also ‘mocked’ when a black woman sat down on a ‘Whites Only’ bus seat, it was also violated when black children were taken to all white schools.
Selective applications and interpretations of laws by the State, directed by a fascist Fauj and its corrupt PDM lackeys, to undermine...
Continuous interference in civilian affairs, violating the constitution, recording and leaking audio clips of political leaders and the Prime Minister and President, carrying out coups to overthrow elected governments, refusing to accept civilian oversight, controls and instructions - the Fauj...
Anyone know what exactly is wrong with Zalmay Khalilzad’s 2 suggestions:
He proposed “two steps” to deal with the country’s challenges, the first being to set a date for general elections in early June to “avert a meltdown”.
Secondly, he called for using this time for the main political...
Where exactly are all these settlers coming from to marginalize Punjabis in Punjab?
Afghanistan doesn’t even have as many Pashtun as Pakistan, let alone enough to change the demographics of Punjab, so I’m curious as to how you think this will be accomplished.
The Fauji leadership’s balls are already deposited with the US - they aren’t going to instigate anything with India unless it is with the (covert) concurrence of the US (and possibly India) because the US does not want its mercenary Army to lose influence to a genuinely popular elected...
That works for people like Nawaz, IK’s politics is built on idealism/populism. Any hint of a ‘deal’ with the establishment and surrender (for any length of time) and he’s finished.
It is either stay the course, take the risks (they kill IK or imprison him till he dies) and win big OR lose and...

The only legitimate line of inquiry you have is the purchase of gifts from Toshakhana, and even that is per the law so call for the rules/laws to be changed instead of...
This is the level of panic and intellect on the part of the PDM government and Fauj - they are like monkeys throwing poo at a wall in the hope that SOMETHING might stick.
80 plus cases and 100 or so FIR’s. The State will use delaying tactics in case after case, schedule hearing after hearing and just keep moving him around (look up what was done with another senior PTI leader, Azam Swati).
The goal will be to keep him behind bars on one pretext after another...
