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 want to be subservient to anyone. However, our situation and the mahaaz that we open up for ourselves and those that others open up (quoting a newly made famous media person) against us require alignment with this Khan Bahadur. I understand the frustrations too since we are the leaders of ummah in our own minds and thus how could we possibly be dependent on others but reality is quite different from wishful thinking.
From day one, I have maintained that Pakistan-US relations were "off-keel" and this was making itself play out in the domestic political side and the stance of the establishment. We are too "ghairatmund" as a mighty nuclear nation to admit this dependency and as such have to lie and constantly put up veneers to shield the reality from our populace. Bajwa and the incumbent, all have nothing personal against IK/PTI. The day the real "Khan Bahadur" puts the stamp of approval on our Khan sahib, he will be ushered back into the halls of power. Everything else is a bundar tamasha on the side.
