The reason it is two days is to (hopefully) kick start a movement and to give a wake up call to the whole nation (comfortably sleeping at the moment). It will also bring those parites closer who are "really" opposed to the drone attacks and those who only provide lip service. Something needs to be done about this mass murder of our brothers, sisters and children. It will make them understand that the rest of Pakistan does feel their pain.

unfortunately the blockade is only going to be for 2 days and that's not enough, it should be at least for a week!

PTI rally halts Nato supplies
PESHAWAR - Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, Imran Khan, has said that people of Pakistan are now ready to stand up against corrupt leadership and defend the country from US hegemony.
Today we are making history to get rid of US slavery and this sit-in would be the first step towards independence of Pakistan in its real sense, PTI Chairman Imran Khan remarked while addressing the mammoth inaugural session of his two-day sit-in programme here at Bagh-e-Naran Square on Saturday.
Besides party workers and central and provincial leaders, Senator Professor Ibrahim of Jammat Islami, Provincial Information Secretary JUI (F) Abdul Jalil Jan, central leader of Jammiat Ulema Islam (S) Hamid-ul-Haq Haqqnai, sister of Dr Aafia Siddiqi, Dr Fauzia Siddiqi, Rahmat Khan Wardag of Pakistan Tehrik Istiqlal, MNA from North Waziristan Agency Kamran Khan and others attended the sit-in.
Imran said that corrupt leadership of the country had made the country a puppet in the hands of the United State. He said that time had come to announce rebellion against Pro-US policies. He said that todays sit-in against the United State was in thousands but the day was not far away when such a gathering would comprise millions of people. He said that main mission of todays gathering was to get rid of corrupt leaders and at the end of this gathering they would clearly convey a message to the rulers that Pakistani people were not animals but were human beings and they wanted justice.
Imran said if people in Tunis, Egypt and Libya could stand up against the rulers then the day was not far away when Pakistani nation would stand against them.
Addressing on the occasion, Dr Fauzia Saddiqi said that today they were united for national agenda and that was stopping brutal drone attacks on Pakistani soil. They said that the governments silence over US drone attacks was meaningful and they had given open license to US authorities as well CIA operatives to target innocent Pakistanis.
The other leaders speaking on the occasion said that today they were appreciating this historical sit-in arranged by PTI chief Imran Khan as if the US and their allies were not stopped of such brutal steps then the lives of each Pakistani would be at stake. They said that US targeted innocent tribal leaders in North Waziristan despite Raymond Davis release.
They maintained that Pakistani nation would neither tolerate the US intervention in the territorial limits of the country nor they wanted Pakistan a puppet government in the hands of others.
Before arrival, PTI Chairman Imran Khan also stayed in Darul Uloom Haqania where a large number of PTI workers were present to receive him. After a brief stay and speech to seminary students, Imran headed towards Peshawar along with hundred of vehicles.
Meanwhile, representing their political parties, thousands of workers and supporters thronged the PTI show. Waiving their parties flags the workers of PTI, JI, JUI, Tahrik Isteqlal, PML(N), PPP(S) and PML(Q) arrived to the venue early in the afternoon and remained there till the arrival of Imran.
Meanwhile, in the wake of sit-in in the provincial metropolis, supplies to NATO forces in Afghanistan remained suspended on Saturday, sources told The Nation here. They said that supplies to the allied forces in neighbouring country Afghanistan has been suspended from Friday and would be continued till Monday owing to the two-day sit-in.
Likewise Khyber Agency administration following the orders of the federal and provincial government stopped NATO supply to avoid any mishaps during the PTI set-in in Peshawar.
Agencies add: Supporters of cricket hero-turned-politician Imran Khans Tehreek-e-Insaf party gathered on the Peshawar Ring Road Saturday for the planned two-day sit-in aiming to block the route used by supply trucks. The party called the demonstration to protest over US missile attacks from unmanned aircraft in tribal areas, which infringe on Pakistani sovereignty and kill civilians.
They (the US) are losing the war - they can never win it, Khan told a gathering in the northwestern town of Akora Khattak on his way to the protest site in the Bagh-e-Naran neighbourhood. The sit-in will start will end tomorrow, he added. The administration in Peshawar said the NATO trucking service had been halted for three days, and the vehicles ordered to park in other cities on the route.
More than 20,000 people gathered locally for the protest, and many more are expected to arrive in caravans.
Banners on Peshawars main road bore the message Stop drone attacks on innocent tribal people, and images of crossed-out drone aircraft, while posters of Khan and his party dotted the city.
Covert missile strikes targeting militants in Pakistans border regions stoke rampant anti-American sentiment throughout the country. Most supplies and equipment required by coalition troops in Afghanistan are shipped through Pakistan, although US troops increasingly use alternative routes through central Asia. Two truck drivers have been killed this week by militants in revenge for transporting goods for NATO.
