I don't see what advantage anyone gets from giving Nawaz Sharif a 'deal' at this point. It's not like the PMLN is making life miserable for anyone. He's disqualified for life and at this rate his 7 year sentence is going to be used up while he keeps getting 'treatment'.
So, You means NS is already dead politically and about to dead physically as well therefore PMLN is on its last breaths already....hmmmm....Vey naïve assumption dear.
Just imagine the opposite of what you believe and try to comprehends the situation which every political analyst agrees at the moment in Pakistan.
PMLN is popular; After Nawaz Sharif his daughter (who is more anti-establishment) will take charge more forcefully and commendably.
So, An Evident Deal with Establishment by Nawaz Sharif will Kill Nawaz Sharif/Maryam Nawaz Politically....Period.
Nawaz Sharif "Posture" at the moment amongst his followers is "Anti Establishment" and this takes deep roots.
Establishment wants to change this narrative builds by NS/Maryam in last two years by luring them back into the club and humiliates them in front of their followers.
NS/Maryam agrees to keep quite on their anti-establishment rhetoric for time being but absolutely not agree to give safe passage to PTI/IK & Establishment out of this current mess. What that safe passage is?
Look at the moment the political situation of the country; do you have any precedent of it in past.
I mean; everytime any govt didn't performs there are political movements starts on the streets to replace.
This way the party who dislodge from the govt unceremoniously as well as who replace them both...politically stay alive. The model was i.e. Quarrelling Monkeys (PPP, PMLN) & the Fox Judge (Army). This was going on an on.
Now, This PTI govt is beyond incompetent in past 70 years yet you didn't see any genuine political movement on the streets, Why? Fazl-ur-Rehman is vociferous on rooftops yet both main opposition parties...sitting idle theoretically. This is because both opposition parties are agreed to Punish establishment this time by not dislodging current PTI govt unceremoniously and giving a safe honorable passage to IK to re-emerges after sometime. They are aiming for the Kill of Fox this time.
If current PTI govt falls under his own weight....then IK/PTI finishes forever from political scene.
If PTI govt go on and on unpopularly like current situation then Army too will burnt politically as well.
That exactly, NS/Maryam wants at this moment.
But if PMLN & PPP, Dislodge this PTI govt forcefully on the street power and backing of establishment like good mentor; then everything will be good according to script.
PTI will stay relevant politically; claiming there opponents of dislodging her by Saazish & cheat through establishment backing, not allowing her to complete his constitutional term and delivering true benefits of her rule.
Establishment will be happy; of thoroughly comprehends the situation with addition of one more Monkey (PTI) into the system and kept its position of a best Judge and only hope to ordinary people against corrupt and incompetent civilian govts.
Therefore, the best hope establishment is vouching for is to lure NS/Maryam into the club fully; and their support to dislodge current govt on the street power, so that the model, they have created from past 70 years stay relevant again.
