Ch. Nisar’s wife, children are US nationals: WikiLeaks
Updated 49 minutes ago

KARACHI: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N)’s leader of the opposition in National Assembly Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan assured the US in 2008 that he and his party were pro-American, according to a US embassy cable released by WikiLeaks.

“Saying that his wife and children are in fact Americans, Nisar did admit that he went to the US Embassy in London to renew his daughter’s passport because he wanted to avoid being seen at the US Embassy in Islamabad.”

More telling, however, is Khan’s stance on US military action within Pakistan, and how the PML-N would act to remain “publicly credible”.

Nisar reportedly avoided saying that the PML-N opposed either air attacks or US ground action, contrary to its reaction over the May 2011 raid in Abbottabad by a US Navy SEALs team which killed al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.

“What he did say was that the PML-N would have to criticise the Government of Pakistan for allowing US action. Otherwise, said Nisar, the party would have no credibility with the people.”

Nisar said that US policy needed to be more transparent as “confusion bred unhelpful conspiracy theories”. He also told US diplomats that former president Pervez Musharraf was seen as too pro-US and so was “tainted in Pakistani eyes”.

The release of the US embassy and consulate cables in Pakistan has also highlighted how various politicians have lobbied American diplomats for support. From Maulana Fazlur Rehman, the leader of his own faction of the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (JUI-F) to former foreign minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi to the late former Prime Minister, Benazir Bhutto, every major politician in Pakistan has looked to the diplomats for help.

And people still blame USA for all the problems - If our own representatives are corrupt then we should try to change our government instead of blaming USA.The wife and children of politician who rallies on Anti Americanism are American Citizen - How ironic.

The truth about the drone strikes has never been told, while publically or through leaks the powers in pakistan keep telling the common masses what they want to hear, that is the govt is against it, in reality the same powers are complicit. That any reasonable policymaker does not know the risks of not taking the people in confidence on such matters is difficult to digest. Infact these risks are being allowed to become issues so that the 'business' keeps running smoothly.

About the OP, that these rightwing nutjobs are infact hypocrites of the worst kind is not news anymore.

Almost ALL prominent Pakistani politicians are in the same boat, with immediate relatives being foreign/dual nationals and/or permanent residents abroad, ranging the spectrum from Pervez Musharraf to Fazlur Rahman, and every shade in between. Add in senior bureaucrats and military personnel, and one can have some idea of how pervasive this practice and its results actually are.

Pakistani minister's and ambassadors all had been granted US nationality while they never lived or worked in US.

It is not limited to the nationality... even their assets are abroad..

When they sell Pakistan... they clearly see what is becoming of Pakistan in future.

So let me summarise this as under:

- The president of the country has his Billions of dollars in SWISS Banks and property scattered all around the globe sparing the country he rules.
-The chairman of the second biggest party has his properties and accounts in London and Saudi Arabia along with the Governor of the country's biggest province.
- Leader of the opposition and his family are US nationals which is being accused of trying to disintegrate the country by none other than interior minister of Sindh Province.
- The chairman of largest political party in the biggest and revenue generating city of Karachi is a British national.
- Interior minister of the country too is a British national.

Did I miss anything? Feel free to add.

What kind of country we live in?

His family was already foreign national. We should not involve families, right. But we must expose the politicians who on the one hand say **** about US and on the other hand suck ***** americans.

 

[truthseer]

Wondering why US diplomats have so much to say on Pakistan and nothing on Israel or India. Makes you wonder who is behind Wikileaks
