Another master stroke by the PM. He is going leaps and bounds in terms of balancing opinions and narratives. May he live long, prosper, stay honest and continue to march in the right direction.

Fantastic choice. This is how you 'purchase' influence in global centres of power, Washington, London, Paris etc. Also you get understanding how those global centre work as this chap is a 'insider' with intimate details as how things tick. And will have reach in US/Wester media. This is exactly how you improve your image. I am absolutely impressed.

Trust me guys this is a kick up Modi's and Gangus in US gonads.

 

[SIPRA]

Of course, his appointment would have got the necessary clearance from the Establishment.

 

[Indus Pakistan]

Expect more from this installed government in coming days.

Better then Gen Zia's illigitmate child Nawaz or ZAB's watered down spunk* aka Bilawal.

Of course, his appointment would have got the necessary clearance from the Establishment.

Of course. Like in any state officials to top posts need to get clearance.

*English slang: spunk or semen or sperm.

For patwarees all expats Pakistanis are agents of CIA and MI6 except Hussain and Hassan Nawaz.

 

[Chakar The Great]

Excellent decision.

Good choice would be a team of retired army officers.

Sure matric passed people who go and become generals. You want them to lead the country ? They have destroyed several departments already not because of ill-intentions but pure ignorance and incompetence. Be sensible.

An american mouthpiece is here as a special advisor to PM on national security. Expect more from this installed government in coming days.

Do you even know how hard he tried to fight the pakistan's cause . He is the only pro Pakistan pro pak army voice in America . While every one was anti Pakistan he was fighting your narrative and just in a moment you wrote him out as American mouthpiece.
How can you do that in your ignorance .
Even India was so weary of him . They call him a pakistani spy on us.

the person you quoted is without doubt a tooi wal.

what is your view on 'vote ko izzat'?

 

[AbuzarIlyas]

Ofno

Try not spreading your ignorance on the board. You have no idea who Moeed is and why he is where he is.

Ignorance is a quite crude word dear which you have used twice. I have every right to criticize every decision of government and i have also found his several interviews as pro US maligning Pakistan and Pak Army. And i am sorry if he is your close relative or friend and you found my words harsh. But its my point of view and we both have to respect each other's views. Have a good day.

I have found several of interviews against Pak Army and denouncing the sacrifices of our soldiers in WoT and that too on some serious forums.

Better then Gen Zia's illigitmate child Nawaz or ZAB's watered down spunk* aka Bilawal.

From ZAB to IK, every puppet was installed. I hate Nawaz for his corruption and IK for abusing our jawans when they were busy in critical operations against TTP. Those interviews of IK were really hurting for me as i was fighting this war with my pen.

Maryam nawaz should be special Assistant and adviser for everything.....

Maryam nawaz should be special Assistant and adviser for everything.....

She would make a very good advisor on how to loot effectively.

 

[KeyBORED Warrior]

I accuse you of working for ISI... now you are equal candidate!
The job is not for an ISI individual. National Security Council should be the prime advisory council on matters relating to defense of Pakistan.

Well i think it'd be naive to assume that he'll be the only one to work on national security. Offcourse its not the job of a single individual, he'll just add a more broader and fresh perspective to it. He's qualified enough, as far as i think a good choice.

Ik ki izzat bhi loot kar lay jai gi....balatkaar
