PM Imran Khan addresses to the Nation on Asia Bibi's issue | Complete video | 31st October 2018

. . .
The best time to make unpopular choices is soon after winning an election. If you do your bit right, in 5 years time, nobody remembers them because you have so many positive things you can talk about.
In normal circumstances...yes but IK's problem is that his govt has slim majority both in center and Punjab and on top of the that, the cheapo cheap CJP is creating hurdles for his govt. Now if he can't appoint an IG...how can you expect him to control the situation. What messages does it give to the bureaucracy that basically PM has no powers and real center of power the judiciary?
Now, IK has taken a certain section of the society head on with this speech and the institutions are not ready to obey him.... let's see how does it play out in coming weeks.
 
. .
Are you serious?
The woman at the centre of this situation was locked up and tried for 'apparently' saying something. If it was a free country nothing like the current situation would have even happened. Or is it a free country as long as you are a muslim?

No way should instigating murder by allowed as free speech and you will find that it is a crime to incite hatred in most Western countries. The mullah trying to get people killed should be arrested immediately.

Of course im not serious, that's why i added the lol.

I don't agree with the idiot molvi, but i do find it amusing how people claim there is no free speech in our country and no free media, yet here we have zero ka halwa molvi openly preaching treason.

Then why suppress the present protests?
If you'd paid attention to his speech, you would have noticed that he is not suppressing protest. He is admonishing them for lying about the CJ and COAS. And he is warning them against causing damage to life, livelihood and property.

So what do you think happened in his dharnas? Was that any different?

His dharnas were all about pushing state institutions to do their jobs and act against people who seemed to be committing crimes with impunity. Once the supreme court announced that they would take up the case, he stopped his dharnas.

Oh right. What is sauce for the goose .......

The tactics that he employed previously will now all be used against him, sadly.

And if they will choose to resist, what are the options?
Personally I think nothing will happen. They will just peacefully leave. Because this time people are with the government, last time was a bit different. They are just not getting the attention they hoped for.
Slowly these cancers of society will die and nobody will help them. I visit Pakistan frequently (1 week in a month), and lately I noticed that the people aren't anymore diehard supporters of mullahs, like they were in 2012/2013. People have realised that sitting on a road all day won't feed them, but only the one sitting on the stage/containers.

They are trying, but they do not have the moral authority or fortitude to do so.
