Modi-Imran Acrimony; IHC Order to Release Nawaz Sharif

[RiazHaq]

Pakistan's new prime minister Mr. Imran Khan extended his hand of friendship to India that led to a mutual agreement for the two countries to meet on the sidelines of the upcoming annual UN General Assembly meeting. However, the foreign minister level meeting was canceled by India a couple of days later with a nasty message from Indian foreign ministry to Prime Minister Imran Khan alleging that he has shown his "true face" and exposed his "evil agenda". Prime Minister Imran Khan responded with an equally nasty tweet talking of "small men occupying big office" that "lack bigger vision" without naming Prime Minister Modi.


Why did it go from the hopeful meeting to saber rattling between the two South Asian neighbors? Did the Modi government cave in to pressure from within his Hindu Nationalist base? Have India's leaders whipped up so much anti-Pakistan hysteria that they have made it extremely difficult fo talk peace and friendship with the western neighbor? Has the talk of "chhappan inch ki chhati" (56 inch chest) and "boli nahi goli" (bullets, not talks) radicalized Mr. Modi's base and left little room to maneuver for his government on its Pakistan policy?

Islamabad High Court suspended the sentences of Pakistan's former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, his daughter and son-in-law and ordered their release while Prime Minister Imran Khan was in Saudi Arabia on a state visit. Did this release happen under a deal involving the Saudi Royal Family? Or is it a mere coincidence?

It is not just about Modi's base. It is the whole of India. We remember very well what happened in the past when we proactively tried for peace. Now, India doesn't trust Pakistan. That is the main reason.

Tweet from former Indian High Commissioner Sharat Sabharwal criticizing Indian Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) statement referring to
"the evil agenda of Pakistan stands exposed and the true face of new Prime Minister of Pakistan revealed to the world":

"IFS does not draft such election oriented statements or take such hasty flip flop decisions. Seems handiwork of 'muscular' thinking. More 'brawn' than 'brain'!"

Is this MEA statement drafted by the same dudes who write scripts for commando-comic channels? And seriously: can’t believe IFS drafted it. They know Imran has been PM for…

What do these tweets prove? The initiative might have been mishandled either intentionally or unintentionally to block the meeting. But why don't such things happen with other countries? The main reason is still the same: the Indian government and the people simply don't trust Pakistan anymore because of the past experiences.

These tweets show that Modi government is fooling its own people by making demonstrably false claims about Pakistan and Imran Khan. And it's being done solely for political reasons for the benefit of BJP that have nothing to do with India's best security interests. It's putting Modi's interests ahead of the nation's interests.

We really couldn't care less about this buffoon Imran.

He is a non entity who has zero power even in Pakistan. He is a napunsak pretending to be a man.
