Tbh, it’s already not a clean party. I remember how Mustafa Khokar punched that poor old man at the hotel. Miftah ismael is only semi competent. The others have a stench of corruption around them that actually was a liability for PTI- Tareen and Aleem Khan, so good riddance. It’s already a...
Do you really think that a party like JI is the same as say PPP?
What is your take on the objectives resolution? From your reply, it seems you don’t tilt left?
Which party’s policies do you find yourself aligning with more closely?
Assume we had the same political parties but a competent ECP under a neutral caretaker and secure electoral system, who would you find yourself voting for?
It’s not that boys don’t want to go.
I know for medical universities, for example, competition is pretty stiff and the girls have decided advantage over boys here. For some reason, people have a fetish with this whole medical thing and they really like having their daughters go to medical...
It’s very sad but our women especially in Pakistan are much more educated than our boys. Even in Karachi, they have to have reserved seats for boys so that they can make it to uni.
The issue of moonlighting has a tremendous amount of history and is very nuanced. It’s not easy to make cookie cutter arguments here.
First of all, the Greeks and the Mayans already had a method to predict the new moon at the time of the Prophet (PBUH). That was accurate to within minutes. The...
Yeah I guess that’s true. I suppose I may be a bit biased because of who I bump into in Houston. Most people I meet over here genuinely don’t care about ethnicity. Beyond if the person is Pakistani. My extended american family stateside has married into punjabis too btw.
Not true. The majority of people in say Chicago, do seem to be from Karachi.
Maybe it’s more fifty fifty in east coast. In Houston, it’s basically simple majority Karachi.
Surprised that the census would record which part of Pakistan they are from. Can you link the article?
And actually 50%...
Okay so I was thinking this out,
Currently, this won’t hold in court. What happens if the current CJP dies of a “heart attack”? Will Justice Esa Fraudia also rule this non-constitutional?
Given that the beghairty of the establishment who alsmost certainly did assassinate Liaquat Ali and...
Do you guys remember when some of us postulated after the SC order that set elections in 90 days that this was not over?
Credit goes to the PDM and the establishment- they are masters of Machiavellian politics. Us PTI boys don’t even have the imagination to predict what they can do next.
I...
Could it be that the republicans are signaling their interest in working with PTI because they had okay relations with IK under Trump and easier to swallow for them?
I am going to sound like a leftist turd saying this but the concept of ethnicity is imagined. There was no Han ethnicity before the Chinese cultural revolution; most ethnic identities that are stable are invented. Granted underlying all that is some shared history, experience and values.
Why...
That I have ideology does not mean that I deny or don’t realize realpolitik.
Real life is a balance between idealism and pragmatism. I might be proven wrong very shortly but Pakistan has a destiny- and her destiny is not limited to some shallow ethnic nation of some sort.
If we had had half...
This is exactly right.
The cringe poet is Iqbal. In two couplets, he is essentially cursing your ethnic centrists on one hand and your liberal secular crowd on the other.
It may be cringe to you- but the strength of a Iqbal’s poetry defined the boundaries of the country you live in.
Ethnic...
