Pakistan is gradually developing.
PPP $600 billion GDP by 2015....that is not an insignificant economy with $13 trillion worth of resources waiting to be exploited through Chinese and Asian development INVESTMENT.
In order to develop there has to be stability in the country, which gives confidence to the people to invest in the future.
Pakistan has LOST $100 billion through opportunity cost loss in the ECONOMY.................because of the devious treachery of her generals who decided to fight a fake GWOT war against fellow Pakistanis so that they themselves could become rich and self important, for gora sahib chaud.
The Pakistan military is the REAL cause of Pakistan's failed state situation.
The situation becomes urgent by the year, where Pakistan's population will reach 355 million by 2050. One shudders to think what Pakistan will be like then. Did Ayub Khan say people in Pakistan will have to eat fellow Pakistanis if the population is not controlled?
The Pakistan military is already eating fellow Pakistanis metaphorically.
In a stable country people have to do the jobs they are assigned and paid by the taxpayer effectively, diligently and efficiently. Imagine the mess in the country if the barber became a politician, or the military general who fancied himself as a political leader with understanding of complex macro-economics and statecraft, or a accountant pretending to be an army general or a cricketer became a playboy married to a Jew, producing Jew children.
Nawaz Sharif MUST be allowed to finish his 5 year mandate, regardless of what people think of him.(He is better than Zardari bhen, but not much better).......what next, Imran Khan PM in an Insaf government for 2 weeks....or a PPP government for 3 months?
Bhai sahib.............. this is the politics of the 1950's when the army killed Laiqat Ali Khan on Churchill's London orders, and then proceeded to destabilize the next 100 odd civilian governments prior to the coup in 1958. This is what happened in the 1990's prior to the coup in 1999.......and then 9 years of Busharaf.
Imran Khan can cock suck for the army, destabilize and weakening the CIVILIAN GOVERNMENT ILLEGALLY, but the people MUST stand by Sharif, and the CONSTITUTIONALITY of his civilian government.
Shame on Khan and the foreign backed mullah Qadri.
JEMIMA KHAN IS RELATED TO THE ROTHSCHILDS OF LONDON....ANY SUCH MARRIAGE IS NOT A LOVE MARRIAGE......by Jewish law Khan has 2 Jewish sons through their mother. Have both remarried yet? Did they have a divorce? Does she supply and frame his political policies?
Groomed to lead Pakistan in 20 years time for London and Israel.....the one specifically on the left, who may not be Khan's son.
The current military SOFT coup must be thwarted by all right minded and patriotic Pakistanis.
Sharif must not bow down and surrender to the worthless military. He must fight for what he has legally and constitutionally earned FROM THE Pakistan people...he must roll up his sleeve. He must not exist as a worthless, powerless puppet of the military.

Pakistan crisis puts army back in the driving seat
.
by Times of India and therearenosunglasses.com
As tens of thousands of protesters advanced on the Pakistani capital last week to demand his resignation, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif dispatched two emissaries to consult with the army chief.
He wanted to know if the military was quietly engineering the twin protest movements by cricket star-turned-politician Imran Khan and activist cleric Tahir ul-Qadri, or if, perhaps, it was preparing to stage a coup..
According to a government insider with a first-hand account of the meeting, Sharif’s envoys returned with good news and bad: there will be no coup, but if he wants his government to survive, from now on it will have to “share space with the army”.

.
Even if, as seems likely, the Khan and Qadri protests eventually fizzle out due to a lack of overt support from the military, the prime minister will emerge weakened from the crisis.
.
The army may have saved his skin, but its price will be subservience to the generals on issues he wanted to handle himself — from the fight against the Taliban to relations with arch foe India and Pakistan’s role in neighbouring, post-NATO Afghanistan.
.
“The biggest loser will be Nawaz, cut down to size both by puny political rivals and the powerful army,” said a government minister who asked not to be named. “From this moment on, he’ll always be looking over his shoulder.”
A year ago, few would have predicted that Sharif would be in such trouble: back then, he had just swept to power for a third time in a milestone poll that marked nuclear-armed Pakistan’s first transition from one elected government to another.
.
But in the months that followed, Sharif — who had crossed swords with the army in the past — moved to enhance the clout of the civilian government in a country that has been ruled by the military for more than half of its turbulent history.
.
He irked the generals by putting former military head Pervez Musharraf, who had abruptly ended his last stint as prime minister in a 1999 coup, on trial for treason.
.
Sharif also opposed a military offensive to crush Taliban insurgents, sided with a media group that had accused the military of shooting one of its journalists and sought reconciliation with India, the perceived threat that the army uses to justify its huge budget and national importance.
.
India rapprochement at risk
.
Sources in Sharif’s government said that, with civilian-military relations in such bad shape, Sharif suspected that the street protests to unseat him were being manipulated from behind the scenes by the army.
.
He also feared that, if the agitations turned violent, the army would exploit the situation to seize power for itself.
.
However, the two close aides who went to see army chief Raheel Sharif in the garrison town of Rawalpindi last Wednesday were told that the military had no intention of intervening.
“The military does not intend to carry out a coup but … if the government wants to get through its many problems and the four remaining years of its term, it has to share space with the army,” said the insider, summing up the message they were given.
.
“Sharing space” is a familiar euphemism for civilian governments focusing narrowly on domestic political affairs and leaving security and strategic policy to the army.
.
The army’s media wing declined to comment on the meeting.
.
The fact that the military is back in the driving seat will make it harder for Sharif to deliver the rapprochement with India that he promised when he won the election last year.
Indian media speculated this week that Sharif had already been forced by the generals to scuttle peace talks.
.
New Delhi on Monday called off a meeting between foreign ministry officials of the two countries, which had been set to take place on August 25, because Pakistan announced its intention to consult Kashmiri separatists ahead of the meeting.
.
The Pakistani army’s predominance could also mean it could torpedo the government’s relationship with Afghanistan, where a regional jostle for influence is expected to intensify after the withdrawal of most foreign forces at the end of this year.
.
Paying the price
.
Few believed that the army would back Khan’s bid for power even if it used him to put Sharif on the defensive.
.
“Even the army knows that Imran Khan may be a great pressure cooker in the kitchen, but you can’t trust him to be the chef,” said a former intelligence chief who declined to be named.
.
Sharif may now pay the price for miscalculating that the military might have been willing to let the one-time cricket hero topple him.
.
“Thinking that Imran could be a game-changer, Nawaz has conceded the maximum to the army,” a Sharif aide said.
.
“From a czar-like prime minister, they (the army) have reduced him to a deputy commissioner-type character who will deal with the day-to-day running of the country while they take care of the important stuff like Afghanistan and India. This is not a small loss.”
.
But Sharif’s aides say a stint in jail under Musharraf, followed by exile from Pakistan and five years as leader of the opposition party, have made him realize that he needs to share power to survive.
.
“This is not the old Nawaz, the wild confrontationalist,” said an adviser to the prime minister in Lahore, the capital of his Punjab province power base. “This is the new Nawaz who has learnt the hard way that politics is about living to fight another day.”
