Exactly Noora king has ordered his Gullu butts type of police to unleash hell on innocents.
That's a damn good point. They were talking about this earlier on Ary.
There were just a few army soldiers guarding the building and people didn't cross the line when soldiers told them not to. Shows there is much respect for the army.
We are the reason Pakistan is alive today otherwise leeches inside Pakistan would have sucked this well dry a long time ago.
You outlaws denounce every law and rule in the country which isn't to your liking. You place people's live in danger by bringing them out of their homes while you sit comfortably in your "containers".
You guys don't even know the meaning of loving your land. Mulk muft mein mil gaya hai, iss liye phit gaye ho. Thats why people like us have to step in and save the land of our ancestors.

Pakistan crisis a ‘tiny storm’, says Sharif
PM scoffs at size of crowd, says handful of protesters cannot dictate parliament.
Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Saturday dismissed the ongoing sit-ins at Islamabad’s D-chowk as a “transient storm”, adding that he could not submit to the unacceptable demands of few thousand protesters. (1)
Speaking to reporters in Lahore, Sharif said it has been government’s endeavour to resolve the ongoing crisis through negotiations. All legitimate demands of the protesters have been accepted but their insistence on his resignation had no constitutional or legal base. (2)
The prime minister said nobody would be allowed to undermine democracy. He scoffed at the size of crowd of protesters, describing it as a “roaring sea of empty chairs”. (1)
“You see how many people are there at the dharna?” Sharif asked. “It is a sea of empty chairs,” he said with a laugh. (1)
“This is just a tiny storm, a tumult, which would be ended in a few days,” (1) he added.
When asked if he would be willing to meet PTI chief Imran Khan to resolve the crisis, Sharif said the continuing talks are meant to lead to such development.
The “protest sit-in has caused massive loss to Pakistan’s economy”, he said, adding “we will retrieve that but they must realise that protests have affected the development projects.”
Sharif said protests have undermined country’s image abroad leading to cancellation of some important visits.
He said due to these sit-ins, two heads of states postponed their visits to Islamabad while he himself could not attend the oath-taking ceremony of the Turkish president.
“Now the Chinese president will visit Pakistan. We are collaborating with the Chinese government on a number of projects and this might have an adverse impact,” said Sharif.
Sharif said all demands of protesters had already been accepted.
“We have already accepted all their demands, of electoral reforms and establishment of a commission,” he said, referring to the judicial commission to investigate rigging claims.
Sharif added the findings of the judical commission would be made public and would be acceptable to his government
He said the National Assembly has passed a resolution that no conspiracy against democracy will be allowed to succeed and the government is determined to implement this resolution as it is the voice of the people. (2)
Pakistan crisis a tiny storm, says Sharif - Khaleej Times
--------------------------------
(1) They still cannot decide the protestors are few hundreds or few thousands or sea of empty chairs. If they are in small numbers why bring in thousands of police forces? If they are just sea of empty chairs do you need anti riot police to remove the sea of chairs why cannot municipal workers do it?
(2) Which constitution? the one which is does not give the rights to the citizens? It is nothing but worth pissing on it. Just give me the percentage of the population which get their rights as per the constitution?

Well, Shareef brothers are responsible for all this happening now, right after Model town tragedy Shahbaz should resign coz in both ways he know or doesn't know what happening under his premier sad thing happen. NS is fool as always, he should accept PTI demand for Four seats very early and he unable to read the PAT/PTI building pressure.
PTI/PAT unable to bring street power as they were claiming from start, it's now 17th days and only in ISD limited area other part of Pakistan stays away from these protests, the reason is that a vast majority of Pakistanis don't belives on both party. Short story, both PMLN and Inqilabi leadership failed miserably.
The Lost, few thousand mureed type suffered much, already shaking economy now tumbling to fall, we are best laugh of stock for other countries who watching a Nukes holding state's capital under sieged
by a violent group.

Yeah, keep on dreaming.
Pakistan is alive because of hard-working people like me, people who do not partake in corruption, people who work hard to make ends meet, people who contribute to economy of this nation by paying taxes and bills honestly, people who attempt to elect better people in power, people who want corruption/status-quo/mafia FITNA to end.
The leeches inside Pakistan have done really well for sucking this nation dry for a long long time, billions of dollars of worth of assets and funds stored in foreign nations. Not surprisingly, these leeches are Amercian and British nationals like you who prefer to keep billions in SWISS, AMERICAN and BRITISH banks.
You American nationals are among the biggest promoters of status-quo culture in Pakistan. Its apparent even in the organizations. Higher-ups attempt to engage in status-quo activities to impress their status-quo buddies and are mostly dual-nationals (American/Canadian/British).
Outlaws? You bloody idiot.
This nation is under strong grip of FITNA of corruption, status-quo and mafia. Most institutions are compromised, judiciary have history of releasing terrorists, let-alone provide justice to the common people. On top of this, terrorism is wide-spread.
What are honest and hard-working people supposed to do?
Once again;
Who is responsible for Model Town tragedy?
Who is responsible for not registering FIR against culprits behind Model Town tragedy?
Who is responsible for sabotaging investigations in to rigging of elections?
Who is responsible for not providing justice to common people of Pakistan?
Answer these questions instead of presenting baseless arguments.
A bloody American national is telling me that patriotic people like me do not understand the meaning of loving this land.
Tu America mein kiya kar raha hai agar tujhe itni fiqr hai Pakistan ki? Jhaak mar raha hai?
Apne American nationality ko khatam kar kei Pakistan mein wapas aa.

Seriously, PTI and PAT wanted this situation now they have it so enjoy, the problem is we never learn from our mistakes. But I think Gov right at least for the fact that they cannot abduct the capital and force their demands. N leauge is no saint but PAT and PTI as just made them look very saint by wicked things they have been doing since last 18 days.

As an ignorant bystander to the whole chain of events, I'd like to know certain things here, doesn't Pakistan police use water cannons at all, its far less lethal mean of dispersing a crowd. I didn't see even a single fire tender in action to disperse the crowd. Other than that does ARY has any personal grudge towards the PML(N) government and specially towards the Sharif's. During the last nights broadcast when a reporter just uttered the names of Hamza and Mariyam Sharif, the TV anchor scoffed the reporter and asked him if he performed "wuzu" since he uttered their names, I was wondering if thats the level of contempt on a TV channel how can they be neutral while reporting.
I don't know what you're implying but I @Meengla a gentleman who is very knowledgeable. I consider myself lucky to hold same views as him on many different things.
