Asif Zardari could easily be Moin Akhtar's replacement on Anwar Maqsood's shows. Hai tau banda tez...

Ok, put the PDM jattha in the exact same situation and let's say PTI was ruling, how would the optics look to you then? Amreeka Khan Bahadur is a factor of consequence for Pakistan. I don't think any external power should ever be a factor for us but they are. What next?

Another example of revisionist history to suit your narrative. No country is founded by the military. The country is what leads to the establishment of the military. So not sure what your point above is because regardless of what the wakeel sahib says, nobody in khaki has ever claimed to have...

If there was a better example of generalization, I'd love to see it.

And you are since you sit in judgement of 700,000 of these gents and ladies?

Perhaps this "chaudrahat" on bestowing the title of "patriot" should be revisited. As an example, if someone happens to be a supporter of PPP, PML, MQM, it does not automatically make them unpatriotic. Not everyone is a chor with millions of ill-gotten money stashed overseas. Bardasht honi...

Is that a trick question? When were we not a satellite state of either the Americans, Saudis, or Emeratis etc.? Yes, perhaps but then is PTI support this fickle that out of fear of horse-trading, attendance in parliament is forsaken?

We don't need Afghans to bad mouth Pakistan. We have it covered all by ourselves.

Whose fault is that? Perhaps time to come back to this parliament? Better to play this game on the inside than sit out. I think it was a shortsighted move on the part of PTI to rush to resign.

Yes, in a way, good observation. :-)

Because of the binary rhetoric constantly shoved down the throats of the base that supporting/talking to anyone else is akin to picking baatil over Islam. This rhetoric has left no space for political dialogue. Quite similar to the Trump rhetoric based on a non-truth that Democrats are a...

Slightly off-topic: F/A-18 pilot: "I'd take a slick, brand-new F-16 every time...it is the sexiest, most aggressive fighter ever made".

Please elaborate.

The situation is what it is. Sarcasm, pun etc. won't change that.

He has the least to lose in any of this. At least his stance is principled (even though this time around it serves his interests). The heading of this thread should be changed to "Aik Zardari, pooray mulk pay bhari".

Elections won't happen for as long as the alignment with a key foreign power is not addressed vis-a-vis IK/PTI. In light of this, the calculus is that it makes no sense for the establishment to support elections which would take the country back to pre April 11, 2022 dispensation. Every single...

Imo, a better reading of the situation and what flows thenceforth is needed. Khan Bahadur (KB) wants nothing to do with IK/PTI currently thus the PTI machinery in overdrive to redress this in the US. Establishment is also managing this misalignment and it entails cornering PTI and also...

Are you Ras Al Ghoul? ;-) All roads lead to Amreeka Khan Bahadur. This was the case when these respected elders were in uniform, same is the case now. This is also why PTI/IK are making contacts/lobbying efforts with US congressmen and potentially even the WH. I understand our urge to not...

So were Hindus just a few decades ago (and I can bet there are countless underage marriages going on in Hindu families across much of rural India). Underage marriage has been a phenomena world-wide. Let's not try to make this look like a Muslim/Islamic notion only. Legal age of marriage in...

Sarmad sahib, Thank you for your view. Our issue has never been defending the army against what is rightly wrong on their part. 110% agreed on absolutely no room for army in politics, repression against civilians (fellow citizens) by khaki and political engineering whatsoever. I abhor all of...
