It is indeed sad that there is such indiscriminate killing in Karachi and the North West Frontier, overseen as they are by the Pakistan military. Such destabilization programs don't happen in the Punjab obviously since the military is run by the Punjabis.
For stability and peace to come to Pakistan the Pakistan military has to be neutered completely.
Then COMPLETELY circumcised from their gora pudi masters.
ONLY a strong civilian government can do this.
The Pakistan military is run by lower middle class Harijan Coolie Kuta's from the Punjab......It was one great philosopher from the West who acutely observed that the lower middle class are the most dangerous class, since they harbor the ambitions of the elite, but have the habits and thought patterns of the working class.
The Pakistan military strategically, with their "strategic depth theory" is the biggest threat to Pakistan as mentioned on this blog millions of times.....such points have to be memorized into media sound bites by natural patriotic leaders of the country.
Nawaz Sharif step forward for your country! Don't save yourself for 2013, by then it will be too late.
Shabana Azmi as Imran Khan? Why not in a New Goondawood flick.

In May this year, Imran Khan’s party — the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) decided to hold a dharna (sit-in) outside the Karachi port to block NATO supplies to Afghanistan on the grounds that Pakistan should stop supporting the US in the region. The dharna was a huge success by PTI standards as 7,000 persons turned up.
(Naturally it is not in Pakistan's interests to supply the 250,000 foreign troops and mercenaries in Afghanistan, as it means destabilization of Pakistan from Afghanistan....AND continued yearly serious accusations against Pakistan, justified and unjustified by the USA. When ALL the foreign troops go from Afghanistan, Pakistan will be a little bit more peaceful especially in Baluchistan, where insurgents in the province are backed by various entities from Afghanistan, AND the NWFP...again where various entities from Afghanistan back insurgent groups in that province........though SAD that it is ONLY a right-wing party with only one seat in parliament that is calling for cutting of supplies to the foreign occupation of Afghanistan. It would be far more appropriate if ALL parties across the political spectrum of Pakistan called for complete cutting of supplies to foreign occupation forces in Afghanistan.
Further since the occupation of Afghanistan by foreign gora troops, Afghan heroin/opium production have skyrocketed, and massive quantities of Afghan heroin have ended up in Pakistan creating social and political instability......very few political personalities talk about this aspect of the foreign occupation of Afghanistan. Forget the Pakistan military.
Massive amounts of Afghan heroin goes into Iran with 3 million addicts, where the nation is building a huge security wall/fence costing billions of $ in its Eastern border with Afghanistan and Pakistan, and the loss of 4000 security personnel since 2001 fighting the heroin traffickers from Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Afghan heroin goes into Central Asia, Ukraine and Russia resulting in the deaths of millions of people. It is a genocide, but since the government in Russia is Jewish controlled this quiet genocide is not actioned upon, or seriously addressed, or even mentioned. Instead the Jewish controlled Russian government assists the foreign occupation troops in Afghanistan!!!!!! So that they can kill more Russians.
Afghan heroin goes into the UK, where the UK military uses its C-130 planes to smuggle heroin into the country. The UK military flying into military bases don't have to declare anything or clear customs. Ditto the American military and their heroin operations in North America.
The Pakistan people would be doing a great service to the Duniya if they stopped the supply route to the foreign occupation forces in Afghanistan, who in reality are there harvesting opium/heroin using the hapless Afghan people as mules, and the country as one giant East India Company 18th century plantation.)
What people did not realise is that most of those in attendance were from different religious parties — including the right-wing Sunni Tehreek which earlier this year supported the killing of Punjab governor Salmaan Taseer and minorities minister Shahbaz Bhatti.
(uncivilized, law of the jungle politics.......Islamic Fundamentalism will destroy Pakistan, and is not the solution to Pakistan's multi-layered complex problems. This is not what Jinnah wanted. Closed shop narrow discourse which is slavishly loyal to the Pakistani military without question is to say the least bad for Pakistan.......the JEWSA got into Afghanistan using Islamists such as the Taliban and "al-Qaeda" AND the whoring services of the Pakistan military....and using them against Gaddafi in Libya NOW, and in Syria, in Yemen...and Egypt.
In 63 years of stop start civilian rule the Islamists have NEVER done well electorally, and should be kept at arms length by the mainstream parties. ALL ISLAMIST parties must be treated as fronts of the Pakistani military and their power base.)
The positive in this is that, although no NATO supply tankers were stopped or delayed, with the dharna staged successfully in terms of numbers of people attending, Imran Khan’s political future seems to have brightened.
(From one seat in parliament to eventually running the country in possible mid-term elections?? seems a stretch.......his good looking, is a media personality, is Punjabi with Pashtun lineage, he is right-wing so obviously appeals to certain elements in the military.
On the other hand, he's making the right noises, doing the right things, and is not linked to the establishment obviously, otherwise he'd have more money and more seats in parliament......but represents a certain urban middle class voice.
As a important, albeit unrepresented VOICE for Pakistanis, he needs to pull about a 1000 media stunts around the country non-stop, peacefully and continue with his good work until elections arise. Maybe in the future one day he can lead the country, but he's got a lot of work to do, and he needs to find patriotic Pakistani sponsors who are filthy rich, without selling himself and the country out in order to get a few more rupees.....in elections in South Asia, its just not about speeches, but about money ultimately. Congress is in power in India because it spent the most money, AND not because its the best party for India)
Post al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden, things are looking bright for the former cricketer and playboy.
His anti-American rhetoric coupled with his ambiguous stand on the Taliban has won him the support of the ultra-right, while at the same time, his unending tirade against corruption continues to gain him followers from the middle and lower income groups.
(Wholesome stuff that needs to be translated into policy papers which are easy to follow. This is what Sheikh Mujibur Rahman did after he was released by the military government in the late 1960's. Its ALL good that he is pointing out ALL the problems of the country in rallies and in the media, that allows him to connect with the aam admi of Pakistan......but he also has to come out with clear cut solutions of what HIS VISION FOR Pakistan is which will make things better)
What is interesting, say political observers, is that as relations between the army and mainstream political parties deteriorate, Khan appears have become more acceptable to the men in uniform.
(He's Punjabi, good looking, politically naive in the sense that he has not exercised power...though he has been in politics for a over a decade, and therefore the military think they can manage him as a potential future leader, just as they did Benazir Bhutto 1988---1990, 1993--1996......but did not trust her for the Third Term. The military recognize the cold fact that billionaire crook Zardari even in Purduh is a "no sell" to the Pakistani people and cannot be kept indefinitely in power, WHILST the Pakistani military exercise REAL power in Pakistan and fuck the country up even further. Zardari has to go soon, so the military are groping around for another political civilian front to cover their real power.
Has Imran Khan criticized pointedly and directly the Pakistan military???? There is absolutely no point in seeking power in Pakistan unless as a civilian leader the first thing you do is neuter the Pakistan military.....and second cut their linkage with the gora pudi powers)
“Imran Khan is talking in a language that the army wants to hear. He is talking about the good Taliban and the bad Taliban. He is critical of the United States and is taking a stand on the drone attacks. He is attacking the main political parties. And he is flirting with the religious parties,” says Rana Sanaullah, a key figure in the PML-N party.
(NOT GOOD......there is no good Taliban, only bad....created by the JEWSA in 1994, using the Pakistan military as "Controlled Opposition". Islamic fundamentalism is not the way forward for Pakistan if it wants to be a modern Liberal Democratic state which is industrialized and respected internationally, and prosperous. You cannot use religion to run a country.. doesn't work----look at Iran)
Political parties are increasingly becoming critical of the armed forces — that too in public discourse. PML-N leader Nawaz Sharif has asked the army chief and the ISI head to step down as they have “no moral authority to head the armed forces after the Bin Laden and Mehran base debacle.” Sharif is not alone in his criticism. There is a rising demand for more accountability of the military and for political overview of the armed forces.
(Naturally! He's the man.......how can Harijan Coolie pudi sala, Assfuck Kiyani and his sidekick Suja Pash still be in power after what happened in Abbottabad especially? That operation was carried out by the SSG for the JEWSA, and Obama's re-election campaign.....AND then Assfuck Kiyani and Suja Pasha stood to attention whilst the JEWSA gloated over the killing of Osama, taking credit for it......AND insulting the Pakistani military by saying that, ""The Pakistani military has been humbled"(Mullen) and "We can attack any part of Pakistan at any time in the future" (Mullen/Gates Freudian slip).......ie..Mehran naval base attack.
Either the above, or the fairy tale that the America's came ALL the way from Afghanistan on a hour flight, undetected into a garrison town which is heavily militarized being near the Indian border, ALL the radar switched off, and ALL the garrison men sound asleep for 1 whole hour, including 25% of the military who would be on night duty, whilst the Americans shot up Osama's compound......AND then took him away on a further one hour return flight to Afghanistan.
A Hollywood movie is coming out soon!!!!!
Assfuck Kiyani and Shuja Pasha and the particular SSG unit which carried out the fake raid for the JEWSA COMMITTED treason against Pakistan. Commited treason in carrying out a fake raid for the Obama and the JEWSA. Commited treason for allowing the JEWSA to insult the Pakistani military, whilst remaining silent)
President Asif Ali Zardari seems to be playing both sides. He accuses Sharif of inciting dissent in the armed forces and trying to promote extremist elements within the army. But he has successfully pushed for greater powers for the prime minister and supremacy of parliament.
(Billionaire crook Zardari is guided by the American embassy on his daily visits there next door to the Presidential palace.....lets not anoint him with special political wisdom and acumen where non exist....ditto ManMohan Singh through Sonia, though obviously as yet no signs that MMS is a billionaire crook.
As to whether he has successfully pushed for greater powers for the PM position, and the supremacy of parliament...I doubt it. On security and foreign policy, by the overt actions of the state, it is still the Pakistan military which is dictating policy)
Last month, finance minister Dr Hafeez Shaikh promised more details of military spending in the coming budget and let out that it is “government policy to ensure there are more answers being given by the GHQ.” Till now, the army leadership has brushed aside civilian interference in its affairs.
(Thats why Assfuck Kiyani's and Suja's Pasha's service terms were extended? Or was it based on the advice of foreign entities)
Setting the mood in what can be seen as a policy shift, ISI chief General Ahmed Shuja Pasha gave a closed door briefing to parliament on the Abbottabad incident.
(OK kiddies yaar here is the daily Kabor....one day there was this sleepy little military town known as Abottabad, now children do you know where Abbottabad is?)
This was followed by a fiery question and answer session in which Pasha exchanged hot words with opposition leader Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan. In many ways, the army seems on the defensive. On the other hand — as seen in the Saleem Shahzad killing — old habits die hard. But there are some who still defend the actions of the men in khaki. One of them is Imran Khan.
(Not good)
When asked, Khan suggested that the Shahzad killing may have been an attempt to tarnish “the good name of the military.” He called it a conspiracy at a time when all other political leaders demanded a commission of inquiry be constituted with a Supreme Court judge as its head.
Journalist Shamimur Rehman says that the recent popularity of Khan’s dharna suggests that he is being backed in his political ambitions by a third force. “This is not new in Pakistan. Ironically, the army’s biggest critic, Sharif, also enjoyed military patronage in his early political career,” adds Rehman.
Some wonder what the next stage for Khan may be. The army’s relations with political parties continue to deteriorate. Zardari is trying to build bridges only because army backing is needed for him to continue to stay in power. There are complications here as well. “This is a party that the army traditionally distrusts because of its secular credentials,” says Kamran Shafi, a political analyst and former military officer.
As a grand opposition alliance comes into being this month, there are expectations that the political temperature in the country will rise. On the one hand will be the ruling party and its reluctant ally, the PML-Q party, which owes its existence to General Musharraf. On the other would be the PML-N and the MQM, two major political forces which represent the urban centres in Punjab and Sindh provinces.
(AND The next government in Pakistan ...........inshalah!)
As has been the case in the past, there is a likely scenario that the army would come to the rescue of the government if the situation becomes critical. Such a situation was seen in 2009 when a long march by the PML-N almost shut down Punjab province and forced Zardari to reinstate the chief justice. That deal was brokered at the prodding of the army chief, say insiders.
Such history may be repeated. Analysts say that Imran Khan is now being seen as the “reserve candidate” of the army high command. Acceptable to both right and left, Khan may be installed as a compromise prime minister if political forces are unable to reach a compromise. Ruling party figures say that such a possibility would be “unacceptable” to them.
“The thought seems ludicrous,” says information minister Firdous Ashiq Awan. However, stranger things have happened in Pakistan’s political history. And with corruption becoming a national topic of debate, such a proposal seems to be gaining ground in many areas of Pakistan.
(If Imran Khan's Insaaf (Justice party) has only one seat now, and in the next mid-term elections he suddenly has enough seats to form a government then a "soft coup" will have been conducted by the Pakistan military (ISI).........just as the PPP under Zardari was brought into power in 2008, after they murdered Benazir.....Benazir in her Third Term would have been too smart for the military. She would have been too familiar with their tricks of the trade.)
