To all of you who say that IK was totally against siding with MQM in govt in the past no matter what... this video is for you. This always has been IK's stance about MQM.

Imran Khan always said he won't ally with PPP and PMLN. The rest are open

MQM-Pakistan has separated its ways from the terror based politics of AH. As far as voicing their sentiments for the people of Karachi, we are with them. However people of Karachi have realised that MQM is not the right choice so they have voted them out and in future, MQM will vanish.

I am still struggling to acept PTI allowing MQM in. I am not entirely convinced that MQM is fully clean from it's past. Inevitably some within the 'clean' MQM will have blood on their hands. In addition possible RAW penetration. But I also recognise that politics is often dirty, more often then not you have to comprise and go choose the least worse option which can make for odd bedfellows.

And PTI/MQM are odd bedfellows. But if that is what it takes for 'Naya Pakistan' so be it.

If RK's book is to be believed then you are too late to stop IK. But still rook sako tu rook lu

Imran Khan was the one who was most vocal against MQM during Altaf era, personally as Karachiite i am not happy with this alliance..its as if PTI and PMLN announce their alliance in Punjab... but i understand PTI have no other option..

Lets see if PTI make effort to lure MMA..

Both MQM and PTI are educated secular middle class parties. Strange bed fellows?

MQM

Who has their leader? Altaf. Bhatta tax. Bodies in cotton sacks. Torture. Possible RAW funding. You name it. Not exactly middle class virtues. And just because they are secular which I don't believe they are [convenience] does not cleanse their record of murder, mayhem, extortion and Indian collusion.

Please remind me after August 20, 2018, I will explain it you.

Below are the options available to IK, You may help in choosing better
1. Sit on opposition benches for 5 more years and hope that he will get simple majority
2. MQM + PMLQ + Other 1, 2 seaters
3. PPP
4. PMLN
5. Convert engine to Diesel

I would have to bite my lips and go for MQM. I said politics can make for having to compromise. And it can make odd bedfellows. So I know there was no choice but does not mean I am happy with it. I am hoping that once PTI make government their position will gain traction as the old order is uprooted which PML-N has planted over three decades of being prominent.

Iam sure no one in the PTI camp is fully happy with this outcome. I would've first loved PTI to have 2/3 majority atleast so that they can make all sorts of necessary constitutional amendments and pass all sorts of law legislations but alas we barely have a simple majority just by adding other parties in the fed. govt. But you gotta be satisfied with what you have gotten so far.

Imran Khan has taken the least damaging option

True. That is politics. I am hoping that PTI consolidate their hold and next elections grab even Sindh. That province needs help. Or it will keep Pakistan dragged down. I just hope PPP hold is weakend in Sindh and the peope wake up. It is time people vote on delivery and not personalitry or dynasties like royal families.
