hahaha.....u liberals are funny creature ...when u can't find any logic..u simply label other person..conservative..maddrasa culture..joker propaganda etc.
he is talking about basing the whole economic system on islamic rules and he has clearly denounce the western system( i suppose you became deaf during that part of his speech) ..that it has failed to provide any solution to man's financial problem..still u think it's a political statement..
If that is your stance..then it can also be said about his statement on 11th August that it was a political statement..can't it???there are numerous statements about how Pak should thrive on islamic principles...and only 1 line..which says state has nothing to do with religion(n even this statement was given regarding rights of minorities..which Islam also allows)
So, even if we consider your point that he wanted to separate religion from state... what do u think can be political stance of one person ...a stance which he has reiterated many times or a single line he uttered once in his life.
