I might be wrong here but the system that has taken root in Pakistan over the last decades is geared for the elected to make money and exercise power. It's all about sticking your snout in the gravy train and supping it.This time around some well-seasoned opponents have lined up to take on the might of the Govt.
Imran Khan threatens the very system because his motivation is not money. All the political class have united to turf out IK - who only managed to narrowly form the government thanks to the establishment.
I think the establishment is still behind IK but the opposition have all rallied because their existence is at stake. IK took all of them and his rigourous approach only managed to unite what are in fact die hard historical rivals. IK should have perhaps aimed at only one group.
Now they have ganged up and are using their considerable financial power and promise of lucrative positions to buy out PTI members. This is nothing but brazen corruption circus being played out.
Yes, such events happens in all vibrant democracies but that is always over some policy, POLICY differance. Here there is no talk of any policy but simply crude power being sold and bought. It has no bearing on the people of Pakistan but its all about lining the pockets of the political elite with Bhuttos/Zardaris, Sharif leading from the front.
