Just like a mafia threat. Keep your mouth shut or else you're gonna get it.

Establishment repeatedly miscalculates the generosity of the US. I don't think this is a fault of theirs per se, but a fault of the culture. Maybe the establishment thought the US would simply make the current account deficit dissappear? Perhaps all of its debts would be forgiven? Or maybe they...

My question here is how is US policy towards Pakistan any different now than it was before removing Imran Khan? The same IMF was approving loans even when IK was in power. Did the US sanction Pakistan due IK foreign policy? Was there any sort of embargo, increased negative media coverage? There...

Pakistanis are some of the most hypocritical people I have seen. You are right, they follow Islam where it suits them. I don't think other Muslim countries are as bad as Pakistan when it comes to corruption, bribes, nepotism, fraud, violating contracts, theft, etc. Maybe African countries are an...

I'm surprised he's alive.

FBR set to roll out new system to check sugar smuggling, tax evasion ISLAMABAD: After the failure of the Track and Trace System (TTS) launched in 2021, the Federal Board of Revenue has rolled out a new software-based sales tracking system to monitor the movement of sugar from mills to the...

SNGPL imposes Rs55m in fines over gas pilferage in Punjab, KP LAHORE: Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited (SNGPL) teams have disconnected 7,187 connections — 7,144 domestic and 43 commercial — in several operations from September 8 to date in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa due to gas pilferage...

The kitchen is starting to heat up. It was a really stupid move by India to assassinate a Canadian citizen on Canadian soil.

So was it Imran Khan the negotiated the arms deal? Also, I am more interested in whether the cash flow register on government books?

First real estate, then fertilizer, cement, then meat & cereals. Now they want to take over farming. I wonder what else fauj can do? Media and entertainment? Can Pak Fauj make a Bollywood? What about Fauji Dining? Fauji Chips? Cookies? Why not just get rid of constitution and change the name...

Religion itself is not the problem. You will find far more tolerance and harmony amongst religions in Iran or even Saudi Arabia than you would in relatively less religious Pakistan. The issue is with law & order. TLP mobs can run amuck, destroying cars and burning property. Try that in Iran or...

This goes back to my messiah theory and the chicken vs egg paradox. Pakistanis rely on a messiah to save them. This messiah will come to them, maybe Imran Khan? Or they will go to the messiah, in other words migrate to the west. Until either of two conditions are not met, they don't want to...

Before IK was removed, there was venture capital flowing in and startup culture was taking off. https://www.mckinsey.com/industries/technology-media-and-telecommunications/our-insights/whats-fueling-pakistans-emerging-start-up-ecosystem The problem is political & economic stability, but also...

I agree with IK not being able to deal with issues strategically. But how did they save Pakistan? This move by the establishment lost billions of dollars, stoked ethnic tensions, intensified the brain drain, and nuked the economy in way with no chance of recovery. You got a loan of $3 billion...

Can't he be court-martialed for this? Dude was jeopardizing entire country. Imagine that thing was nuclear-armed? Is army going to be okay with Karachi being nuked because of chain of command? The system is broken. There needs to be checks & balances.

One problem I've noticed with the people there is that they depend on everyone else but themselves. They are always looking for a messiah to save them, whether it maybe Imran Khan or even the Mahdi. Even the establishment bets on foreign powers to save them instead of betting on the people. I...

I just hope this isn't one of those water-powered car inventions. Hopefully some expert here can let us know if this is the real deal.

The question is, "will there be a Pakistan left for them to govern?" If Pakistan can hold out for a bit longer, maybe a decade. Long enough for the new blood to come in and the old blood, tainted by corruption, nepotism, toxicity, to die out. Then Pakistan will have a great future. The new...

I strongly believe the new and next generation of military and civilians will be much better than their predecessors. This is a different era, everyone is informed through social media. The 1980's mindset, which is what current GHQ and corrupt civilians are living in, no longer has any place in...
