Bro, you're always giving away laugh reacts, but this is comedy gold. :partay:

Nice summary. Actually I've been saying for a long time that Imran is the Nawaz Sharif of the 1990s. Bought to power by the establishment, but nothing lasts forever. Establishment's petting zoo has a very high turnover rate. :D

Establishment has always had close ties with the US. Has the country been living under a rock since the Ayub era? Btw, let’s see if the current US conspiracy enters our history books.

Didn’t IK conduct a crusade against US foreign policy by meeting with Putin? And now Putin congratulates the so-called US stooge? Lmao.

That's a great suggestion quite honestly.

CJP already consulted the establishment on this matter with his now dissolved bench. He'll probably look into again to see if the read itself is different to what he was told.

Disagree with the last point my friend, they’ve had it worse I think. PTI is just getting a taste of the system it supported over the last few years. IK in his personal capacity used NAB, FIA, ANF, etc to go after his opponents - that was in addition to the thuggery by the usual crowd. But rest...

Hard to find any, but it’s sole purpose is this. It’s use against corruption is entirely secondary. The constitutional institutions each have defined roles, this one is not among them. And as for anti corruption, this area is already covered by multiple other agencies - and better agencies I...

It’s a crap department of whose only solid purpose is to harass and victimise any opposition. Whoever is in government can easily use it to conduct all sorts of frivolous and extreme measures against opposing parties.

Markets don’t like uncertainty or instability. Read into it whatever you want. Technically both sides can be right, markets on balance might prefer opposition to IK’s government (marginal preference that has less to do with economic performance). But more than anything, they dislike turmoil...

Good list, fully agree with the sentiment here. I can point to countless discussions on this forum on this subject.

Aye, I'm sure many are thinking the same. He was one of those traitors until about 48 hours ago. :D Noorani too was once attacked by "na maloom afraad", they stopped his car and beat him with iron rods, he suspects it was establishment goons. Also, I just remembered another event to refresh...

I'd like everyone to take a moment and reflect about all those who were called traitors, picked up, detained and threatened. It's time for people who condoned or denied these events to look at their own predicament and admit that they were wrong. Zeenat Shahzadi - kidnapped - but that's okay...

Brother, welcome to the state of mind and same experience opposition had been complaining about in years gone by. Journalists picked up, kangaroo courts set up, ECL and NAB employed without reason on trumped up charges, illegal detentions, implicit threats, media blackout via phone calls to...

Agree.

Not from you certainly, you were one of the most reasonable. There are people we could call out here, but it'd be bad taste to rub salt in their wounds now.

This is a way of trying to deadlock the current assembly. Works best if you command a majority. Here's the thing though, if dissident MNAs stay put and the NA muddles through, it'll seriously undermine this strategy.

The amount of shyt we got on this forum for calling out this sort of behaviour when it was the other side of the political divide that was the target of establishment goons, huh?

Sooner or later everyone sits down to a banquet of conséquences. - Robert Louis Stevenson

He’s a necessary force in the system, he’ll go into opposition, what happens at the next election is too early to say, we don’t know when exactly the election will be and what will happen in politics over the coming months, the last national polls put PTI/PMLN neck and neck, with PTI marginally...
