With a broken heart, I have lost all respect and love for the top brass of the army/military.
All my life I defended the army because the jawans and lower ranks sacrificed everything for the motherland.
I supported previous coups - such as the one against NS because these governments were corrupt and treasonous. So many cases against them, so many evidences of their loot and treason yet always got away with it, in part due to their friends abroad and due to corrupt and inefficient judiciary. I always thought that like us, the army was in search of a bold, honest, upright, sincere, patriotic leader.
For all his faults etc there was no doubt that PM IK fitted that mould and was even better because he was erudite, charming, sophisticated, confident, articulate and also carried the banner of true Islam. His speach in the UN alone should have ensured his position within the army and country.
He wanted an independent country, no droning by the murderous Yanks, no bowing to India, deeper relationship with China - the only country to invest in PK when no one else bothered. He fought back against India and won, he managed Covid, he managed the Afghan crisis, his relationship with the central 'Stan countries grew in strength, normalised with Iran and maintained solid relationships with Saudi Arabia, while deepening relationship with Turkey & Malaysia etc. He did not give up on Kashmir, He supported the Palestinians refusing to join the Abraham accords even under massive pressure.
The economy grew by 5.6%, his policies meant record exports, IT, record agri output and massive growth in job creations, remittances and dealing with diffocult cases like Reko Dik. Then the uplift - Ehsaas, the Sehat card ( for which he has a place in heaven already), the scholarships for poor families, the apna housing scheme so people can buy their own properties, the 5 dams being built, more roads than Nawaz Sharif could ever build in his entire life, 5.5 million new jobs, CPEC 2 launched, inducted the J-10Cs, Inducted Naval assets, Bought howisters and new tanks.
No corruption allegations, spoke the truth, stood up to bullying from America, never called us beggars, gave us dignity, glorified Islam by action and words, fought against Islamophobia.
Yet the army with the connivance of the judges ousted him, and have brought back the very people that conspired against them in Nepal, in London, the very ones that called Bajwa a coward and today his actions proved them right, Bajwa turned out to be the biggest coward, et tu Brutus, you stabbed the best leader we ever had.
We love our country just like PM Imran Khan does and will not forget or forgive what you did here against Pakistan.
