This is the scum of Pakistan who call themselves liberals – by Imran Khan
Ayesha Tammy Haq is a good liberal supporter of Imran Khan. She was a former (failed) candidate for National Assembly by Imran Khan's PTI
Editor’s note: Here is an interesting excerpt from Imran Khan’s recent interview with India’s NDTV. Three noteworthy things in this excerpts are: (1) Imran Khan’s utter contempt for those who disagree with his world-view and politics, (2) his distinction between good liberals (ie, those who conform to his, i.e., ISI’s version of liberalism) and scum liberals (i.e., those who disagree with his politics and conduct), and (3) his respect for Tariq Ali. While harsh words used in this interview also explain the abusive attitude of Imran Khan’s followers who deserve to be forgiven for their trolling and abusing now that we know where it comes from, we are not too surprised about Imran Khan’s penchant for the “Taliban is equal to Pashtoon” fame Tariq Ali. Last but not least we note with interest that Imran Khan’s views on non-conforming liberals are not much different from another ISI-friendly journalist Mosharraf Zaidi (who has been recently installed in Pakistan’s foreign office by the Deep State) who too only believes in ISI-brand of liberals.

These are not liberals – by Imran Khan
Who are these liberals? I want to know because if you look at our rallies, for me it was very satisfying because I have struggled for 15 years, but it was all cross-sections of society. It was girls coming in jeans. It was women coming from deeni madrassas, it was Urdu medium, English medium, the religious. All of them came. It’s the only party in Karachi that does a rally and all sections of society come; the Pashtuns come and the Urdu speaking come and the Balochis, Sindhis. So it is a party that hopes to get all the country on one platform.
I don’t know whom you talk about. These liberals. I don’t know these liberals, because these liberals back bombing of villages. They back drone attacks.
I mean, I don’t call them liberals. I call them fascists. In my book these people are fascists. They have criticised me because I opposed this War on Terror. I opposed this criminal bombing, aerial bombing of villages, women and children getting killed. And these people were applauding it. These are not liberals. This is the scum of Pakistan who call themselves liberals, who have brought this country to this stage. Because of them we have extremism in this country. When they look at these people who stand behind every American policy which allows this country to, all human rights being violated, people being picked up and disappeared, and they’ve applauded all that.
These liberals, so called liberals, applauded the incineration, where they bombed this mosque when there were children and women in it, students in it. And these liberals were in the forefront. I don’t call them liberals. I agree. I really think these are the scum of this country.
In university, Mick Jagger and Karl Marx were my idols. Even now I think I find someone like Tariq Ali who is not religious but who is a Leftist. I find my views are far closer to Tariq Ali than probably anyone else. So I don’t fit in those stereotypes. I’m deeply spiritual. I lead my life with my faith but I’m totally leftist in my thinking.

Shirin Mazari is a good liberal supporter of Imran Khan
Nasim Zehra, former information secretary of PTI, too is a good liberal.
Majority of lifestyle liberals openly or secretly adore Imran Khan. They are good liberals, not scum.
One thing is atleast good in Tammy haq…she may never said that Corruption pay hamara bhi haq hai.
Corruption pay hamara bhi haq hai….Quote Abdul Quyyum Jaoi..Leader Pakistan people party shammeless
Imran Khan cannot write such a disgraceful article. Typical LUBP forging!
Imran Khan is against drone, I too am against drone. Human rights of Hakimullah Mehsud cannot be compromised.
Imran Khan is not alone. Another ISI-proxy Mosharraf Zaidi too has similar views about bad liberals (i.e., those liberals who do not conform to ISI’s version of liberalism):
Here are some nuggets from Mosharraf Zaidi’s articles:
——-
Every pink-blooded Pakistan liberal worth the name has been singing a marsiya about the country falling into the hands of the wretched Taliban. Ah, this poor country, such a piece of tin it must be to fall so far, so fast, so furiously. (Source)
Meanwhile far away, in another part of town, uber-liberals and their friends are gathered round. The number one contender for new Lux Style Awards’ category should be “Shrillest and Most Depressing Prognosis of the Imminent Foreclosure of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan”. There would be dozens of candidates. From the op-ed pages, to the radio, the television and all around the world — the walls are closing in on this Glorious Liberal Garden of Eden. Pinkie, please! … Pakistani liberals are a reasonably well-defined sliver of the population… More than anything else, liberal and conservative, left and right, moderate and fundo, will all have to learn to sit together and enjoy a meal. Find common ground with each other, and invariably with the “mortal enemy” too — Hindu India loves cricket just as much as Inzi Bhai, and Wahhabi Saudis makes some of the best friend chicken in the universe. Find anything, but let’s be human beings and people — before we become either God’s or Jean Paul Sartre’s chosen people. We must eventually live in hope, rather than in fear. (Source)
Most of all, the MQM’s depth of relationship with urban sentiment is evident in the starkly different rhetoric that defines engagement with the issues between Pakistan’s Gucci and Prada liberals on the one hand, and the MQM’s leadership on the other. Convening an ulema conference was a stroke of urban Pakistan genius by the party. No self-respecting secular, progressive liberal (sic) would be caught dead at such a convention. Hence the difference between the MQM (a serious power-player in this country), and cheese and cracker liberals (a loud but politically sterile minority). As much as the lawyers’ movement was an a-religious movement, it was not amoral. And Pakistan’s people (even the ones in nice cars in the city working for banks and educated in the American Midwest) still draw moral inspiration primarily from Islam. (Source)
What lies behind the obsession of right and left, progressive and traditional, liberal and conservative to collectively want to mutilate this conflict into an ideological war that it is not? Perhaps it is the overwhelming instinct ingrained in an irrational public discourse. (Source)
Yet for too many reasonable Pakistanis, the allure of an ideological debate is too much to resist. Liberals versus mullahs. Secularists versus traditionalists. This is a losing proposition. It will, as always, transform into “Islam versus laadeeniyat”. This plays directly to the advantage of the unreasonable people that have already stacked the deck in their favour. (Source)

Dirty dogs of LUBP against Pakistan’s greatest leader
He said those who support murder of innocent are not liberal, they are the scum of Pakistan.
Get your facts straight LUBP. Imranphobia is getting to your head!!
So Imran Zani thinks that the army is not the scum which recruited children from poor families to wage proxy wars, which earned billions of dollars during Afghan jihad and war on terror, which gave airbases to US, which conducted mock military operations to protect its strategic assets. Typical tool of the mullah military alliance who doesn’t have the balls to name the real culprit.
For Imran Zani, the Taliban are not fascists who killed 1200 maliks, bombed jirgas, funerals and markets and killed thousands of pushtoons. This retard thinks that Taliban are pushtoon nationalists.
The PTI troll dos’t know the meening of morality. These islamofascists have been taught lies for the last 1400 years, it will probably need another 1400 years to teach them humanity.
@Faraz,
I hope you realize the irony in your comment, labeling someone as Zaani and then accusing them of being Islamofacsist?
Hey LYBP, PTI @31% and PPP @39 %, a poll on your own website. HAHAHAHAHA
You are clearly perturbed!!
@Tight Chuddi
Yes their is an irony in labelling Imran Khan as ‘Zaani’ and also accusing him Islamofasict at the same time and this irony is different then what you think
In a hope that you better understand the irony of Imran Khan being Zaani and Islamofascist at the same time I think I have to explain Islamofasism first.
Islamofascism is a variant of fascist ideology which is also totalitarian and of European origin. Hitler and Moussolini were flag bearers of Fascist movements, riding high on the notes of conservative christian religious influenced ideas on society and vision to achieve the past glory of holy roman empire by achieving Germany & Italy’s domination in the colonial world by hook or by crook.
That political fascist ideology transferred from europe to Moududi and Hassan Albanna and later Qutub via Mufti of Jerusulam Amin Al Husseini who was both an ally of hitler and Albanna and Albanna collaborated with Moududi and effectively mixed Islam with political fascist movement with retrogressive version of achieving past glories of calphate soem 1400 years ago…..that is what makes every, one who went to school after Zia’s time or come in contact with JI/Muslim Brotherhood, to think for Islam as a totalitaian ideology streching from politics, science and economy which is to dominate and rule the world.
So any one who is religiously motivated and mixes religion with politics and crave for midieveal or tribal based society is a Fascist…Islamofascist if the name of Islam is used for political purposes and it has nothing to do with pesonal piety and celebacy from sex.
So Imran Khan who crave for 1400 year old Shariat and very close to Hassan Albanna/ Maudodi/Qutub and glorify tribal/ feudal cultures and thinks that achieving the past glory is a way to achieve success in the modern world is by definition a Islamo Fascist and and how much pious life he spent I think I dont need to explain to you!
I hope after my explanation you will see irony in your own comment and user ID which is even more starker then the one you yourself pointed out!
Farian,
Please don’t get out of the house, I am worried about you!
Thank you, Farian, very well said!
Imran Khan’s flawed logic on the war on terror
http://tribune.com.pk/story/324147/imran-khans-flawed-logic-on-the-war-on-terror/
another bout of verbal diarrhea from Sarah Khan
Farian,
I think @tightchuddi was pointing the irony of calling some an adulterer because that itself is Islamofacsism.
It’s a contradiction of terms!
But thanks for a lecture on Islamofascism. Isn’t it strange that so called liberals make a gratuitous use of a term coined by new-cons for their opponents? Oh the Irony again!!
😉
BTW, just a little secret for the donkeys at LUBP, Imran is an ardent follower of Ibn Arabi.
لال مسجد کا اشو جب ہو رہا تھا جب عمران خان لندن میں چھٹیاں گزار رہا تھا ،جب عمران سے پوچھا تو کہا کے یہ ایک ڈرامہ ہے جو ججوں کے اشو سے توجہ ہٹانے کے لیہ ہے ، لال مسجد کے پیچھے آئی ایس ے کے جہادیوں کا تذکرہ عمران نہیں کبھی نہیں کیا اور نہ عمران کی سمجھ میں آیا ہوگا
جب سوات میں فضل الله نے قبضہ کر لیا اور اپنا قانون اور اپنی شریعت نافذ کی ،لوگوں کو قتل کرنا شروع کر دیا اور سکول تباہ کرنے لگا تو عمران خان اسے بھی ایک ڈرامہ کہتا رہا ،پھر مذاکرات کی بات کرنے لگا
عمران خان اس وقت بھی غایب ہو گیا تھا جب آئی ایس آئی کی حمیتی یافتہ جماعتوں نے سوات کے طالبانوں کے لیہ شریعت کے نفاذ کی بات کی اور پھر عمران خان نے بھی شریعت کی حمایت کردی ، جب طالبان نے ہتھیار نہیں ڈالے اور اسلام آباد میں بھی شریعت کے نفاذ کی بات کی تب عمران خان آگے نہیں بڑھے اور پھر غائب ہو گئے
عمران خان خود نہ سوات گئے نہ وزیرستان
نو گیارہ سے پہلے سپاہ صحابہ ،تحریک نفاذ شریعت محمدی ،لشکر جھنگوی ، الانصار ،ہز المجاہدین ، لشکر طیبہ اور دوسرے مسلّح گروپ پاکستان میں کام کر رہے تھے اور مذہبی دہشتگردی نواز شریف کے دور سے ہوتی آ رہی تھی ، پر یہی برین واش عمران خان رٹ لگایا ہوا ہے کہ یہ وار آن ٹیرر کا نتیجہ ہے .
یہ سب آئی ایس آئی کے جہادی جنرلوں کا پھیلایا ہوا پروپگینڈا ہے
جب طالبان کی حکومت تھی تو دشتگردوں نے انڈین ائر لائن کا جہاز اغوا کیا اور اظہر مسعود کو رہا کرکہ افغانستان لیے اور دوسرے دیں اظہر مسعود جامعہ بنوریہ میں اپنا جلسہ کر رہا تھا اور آئی ایس آئی کے فوجی اسے سپورٹ کر رہے تھے
اگر عمران خان کی حکومت آگئی اور آئی ایس آئی نے اپنے جہادیوں کو بھیج کر کہیں دہشتگردی کروائی تو کیا پھر عمران کیا کریں گے ؟
عمران خان تو لبرل فاشسٹ نہیں ہے نہ ، تو پھر جائے طالبان کے وزیرستان اور ان سے بات کرے ، اگر وہ بھی کرنل امام کی طرح حشر کر دیں تو پھر کیا ہوگا ؟
@Chiti Churri
Calling Zani a Zani is like calling spade a spade and its not equals to Islamofascism.
But it does equals to Islamofasism when Zani ,due to his his lust for power, uses Islam and crave for implementation of Sharia law to repress, trial and prosecute every one else(except himself ofcourse) who comit zina that makes him Zani.
Term IslamoFasism is not invented by neo-cons but coined by muslim scholars from North Africa and may be I need to deliver another lecture on where this terms comes from but may be next time..
By the way neo-cons invented term ‘Liberal Fasiscts’ to term and mock those liberal intellectuals who opposed US invasion of countries like Iraq based on international principles.Unfortunately Fascism and liberalism are controdictory philosophies but any how our Talibani media picked this term l’iberal fascists from’ neo-cons and applied this term to liberals in Pakistan who raised their voice against Talibani violence and Terror…my be its another irony for you!!
@Farian,
Keep manufacturing “facts” or pull them from your bum but that won’t change the reality.
“The term “neoconservative” was popularized in the United States in 1973 by Socialist leader Michael Harrington,, who applied it his opposition to the policy ideas of Daniel Bell, Daniel Patrick Moynihan, and Irving Kristol.[3]
The “neoconservative” label was embraced by Irving Kristol in his 1979 article “Confessions of a True, Self-Confessed ‘Neoconservative.'”[4] His ideas have been influential since the 1950s, when he co-founded and edited Encounter magazine.[5] Another source was Norman Podhoretz, editor of Commentary magazine from 1960 to 1995. By 1982 Podhoretz was calling himself a neoconservative, in a New York Times Magazine article titled “The Neoconservative Anguish over Reagan’s Foreign Policy”.[6][7] In the late 1970s and early 1980s, the neoconservatives were driven by “the notion that liberalism” had failed and “no longer knew what it was talking about, ” according to E. J. Dionne,[8]
The term neoconservative, which originally was used by a socialist to criticize the politics of Social Democrats, USA,[9] has since 1980 been used as a criticism against proponents of American modern liberalism who had “moved to the right”.[4][10] The term “neoconservative” was the subject of increased media coverage during the presidency of George W. Bush,[11][12] with particular focus on a perceived neoconservative influence on American foreign policy, as part of the Bush Doctrine.[13] The term neocon is often used as pejorative in this context.

@Zalaan
Looks like you have to eat dust once again but I guess you are use to eating it. Read the news link below, it might or might not soothe your aching butthole
http://islamabad.naibaat.com/ePaper/19-01-2012/Detail/p8_18.jpg
Addendum to the post above:
——-
The term “Islamofascism” is included in the New Oxford American Dictionary, which defines it as “a controversial term equating some modern Islamic movements with the European fascist movements of the early twentieth century”.[1] The term is used in this manner by writers like Stephen Schwartz[2] and Christopher Hitchens,[3] to describe Islamist extremists, including terrorist groups such as al Qaeda, Hamas and Hezbollah. William Safire makes particular note of Hitchens as a “popularizer” of the word, though Hitchens declined credit for coining it.[4] The terms Islamic fascism and Muslim fascism are also used by the French philosopher Michel Onfray, an outspoken atheist and antireligionist, who notes in his Atheist Manifesto that Ruhollah Khomeini’s Islamic Revolution “gave birth to an authentic Muslim fascism”.[5]
The origins of the term are uncertain. William Safire writes that the “first use [he] can find” comes from Malise Ruthven in 1990, when Ruthven wrote in The Independent that “authoritarian government, not to say Islamo-fascism, is the rule rather than the exception from Morocco to Pakistan.”[6][7] Albert Scardino writes that the term “seems to have appeared first” in a Washington Times piece, in which scholar Khalid Duran used it “as a criticism of hyper-traditionalist clerics.”[8] According to the Times, this piece appeared in July 2001.[9]

@tight Chaddi
Imran should go to Waziristan then , Remember Khalid khuaja and Col imam ,They also used to support Taliban .
Taliban love to kill …any one ..lol
@Tight Chuddi
Its funny that you couldnt get the irony that a Zani calls liberals scum and hails the terrorists
@Tight Chuddi
1) Read my postings again as I never contested over the origins of neoconservativism.
2) I never judge or presume anyone by face or even by ID even if it is wierd as it is in your case but as a matter of fact these days only school going kids come up with wikipedia references over serious academic issues.
3) Even if the term Islamofascism is initially coined by neo cons then still the nature of violent totalitarian nature of political fascist tendencies and its merger with Islam by Albanna/ Moududi and Qutub is very well documented and researched and one cannot deny the existance of violent groups who do all the crimes against humanity in the name of Islam.
4) Try to read Abdel Wahab Meddeb, Bassam Tibi, Abdullahi Ahmed AnNaim who had written extensively on these issues…I guess I have to say nothing more because in these times of populas fanatasism likes of Zakir Naik would appeal you more then any one else who are stars of Salafi apollogists of Fascist political-religious movements and who openly sypathise with likes of Osama.
All political parties in Pakistan are corrupt except PPP.
Farian,
When you “assume” you make an ass out of you!
I am not interested in religious babble talk. Zakir Naik is donkey much like the rest of the fundos.
I was merely pointing out your demagoguery and I am vindicated.
Your pscho-babble, smoke and mirrors are good for those simpletons who say Talies are evil, God bless America.
But the reality, my friend is much more complicated than that!!
Excellent observation by Imran Khan. If anything, they should be referred to as the illeberal “liberals”. They’ll usually babble into neocon derived conspiracy theories…
Tight chuddi, love your lYbp (let YOU build pakistan). M Zaidi is right when he defines them as loud but politically sterile. Sums up the jahil-fever on this site.
If IK is ISI backed, then “Sarah Khan” is CIA and RAW backed. Accusations are easy.
@Jamshed
Two scumbags who were the foreign ministers during the war on terror are with Imran Khan. Shah Mehmood Qureshi is the senior vice president of the party. Come out of the cult and realize the contradictions in Imran
@Faraz
You seem like a confused child of Zia and PPP’s political marriage of convenience.
Babar Awan is that you?
To liberals, if someone is Zaani, Sharabi or a chronic masturbator like Nawaz shouldn’t matter, if it does then they are not liberal!
Now get the irony?
@Bawa
You are imagining things I haven’t said and then commenting on it. I have no problem if he commits adultery. Such petty matters only attract attention of immature minds. I don’t care what he does. But then he shouldn’t attend rallies of sectarian terrorists like SSP, or ISI dollar jihadists like Hafiz Saeed, or Molana Sandwich Sami ul Haq. And you can’t ignore moral policing and fascism of Taliban when you have humped hundreds of women. When Taliban were bombing schools in Swat and flogging women, Imran Zani was saying that Taliban have brought quick justice. At least Qazi Hussain Ahmad has never been a playboy; his arguments supporting Taliban don’t attract criticism.
Now got the irony?
Faraz
Imran calls himself a humble sinner. He never claimed saint hood. He is against drone attacks because they kill innocent women and children.
But you are claiming that he is trying to be a saint, you are confused not him!
You are knee deep in irony and don’t realize it, oblivious much?
@Oh Bhains
Imran call himself humble sinner then why he appreaciate and want to enforce laws that calls for stoning to death for adulterers???
Imran is against drones that had killed 2000 militant armed terrorists like Baitullah Mehsud and arab, chechin, uzbek, afghan and other illegal residents and very innocent civilans…but he is not against suicide attacks that had killed more then 36000 unarmed, innocent people including women, childrens by those terrorists who are targetted by these drones….isnt it clear that Imran is on the side of Hamid Gul and Jihadi generals/establishment who finance, provide explosives and training to their strategic assets Taliban and Jihadis?? Irony..every suicide attack by jihadis which kills innocent people in the name of Islam is an irony for Islam and for Jihadi terrorist syphathisers like You, Imran Zani(the Adulterer-PlayBoy cum Shraia-law Fan Humble Sinner ) and the Jihadi Establishment
@Oh Bhains
Army runs your foreign policy not civilian government. Politicians weren’t in charge when Army entered SEATO CENTO, Afghan jihad or War on Terror. Army gave airbases to US to conduct drone strikes. ISI shared intelligence with US for drone strokes. Imran is barking up the wrong tree. Liberals have no role in policy making. For the record, I am against drone strikes.
Imran states that the elected government is entirely responsible for the policies. So according to his argument, Mehmood Kasuri and Shah Mehmood Qureshi are responsible for war on terror and drones. And both are in his party. Half of Musharraf’s cabinet is in PTI.
Unlike the educated class which loves the army, I hate these mercenaries. These sick and shameless generals recruited children from poor families, indoctrinated them in deobandi-wahabi madrassas and dumped them in Kashmir and Afghanistan. Tens of thousands of young men died in Afghanistan and Kashmir while generals played golf. Prominent among these bastards is Hamid Gul who, according to columnist Haroon Rasheed, asked Imran to enter politics. Other organizers of this multi-billion jihadi enterprise are found in Imran’s rallies like SSP, LeT etc. Who is responsible for the indoctrination and deaths of these tens of thousands of children?
Well I have no problem with what he does in his private life. But why was he silent when Taliban were bombing schools, beheading women teachers and musicians, flogging women, destroying barber and tailor shops? Dont you see the hypocrisy? The leading sectarian terrorist organization of the country is SSP which is responsible for deaths of thousands of Shias. But PTI’s party members are part of SSP. What about the deaths of 40,000 civilians in blasts and suicide bombings? Taking his lame argument that Taliban are only taking revenge, then why don’t the relatives of 40,000 take revenge. Why don’t pushtoons living in Karachi conduct suicide bombings against MQM target killings.
Can you please point out the irony in my arguments? I am not a cult follower like PTI fans. I have my own brain to think with. You may support Imran, but disagree with him where he is wrong.
@Faraz
I had some doubt that you may be confused but now it’s confirmed. Who said anything about the foreign policy?
I am talking about those who applaud the droning of innocent women and children and Imran called them the scum of Pakistani society.
He said they are not liberal, and if they claim to be liberal than such liberal are the scum of our society because no liberal in his/her right mind would endorse arial bombing of innocent women and children.
Now go to bed, I think you have used up 50% your brain cells.
@Oh Bhains
Dear, the devil lies in the details. Drones are connected to foreign policy. What about Shah Mehmood and Qasuri? What about Imran’s romance with murderous Jihadi groups. I think like most of the middle class, you have no problem if children recruited by madrassas get killed in Kashmir and Afghanistan. You see no contradictions in Imran?
I have a prediction. Imran is naive; if he comes to power, he will realize that the real problem lies in the GHQ. He will turn against the GHQ and GHQ will have him removed through the dozens of lotas that are joining PTI
First of all i am against drone attacks yes drones have taken down some hard core militants which Pakistani army couldn’t have reached but has anyone checked the statistics of causalities with every 5 militants killed 10 to 20 innocent people are killed the original number of casualties is hidden from media because of the fear of the masses growing more resentment towards the government and USA with every drone attack stronger the taliban become these innocent people later join the taliban for revenge you people are blind if you don’t see we are killing are own kinsmen Imran khan suggests brute force isn’t the answer to this not only it strengthens the Talibanas but Pakistan as well suffers with money being wasted to fights these our own kinsmen.Violating Pakistan’s airspace we all have seen how osamma bin laden was taken down what an embarrassment it brought to the country a foreign army intruding into Pakistan near a military academy i believe i don’t need to say anymore about taking down someone who wasn’t even active for years who was just a symbol still i suppose those supporting drone attacks support USA army coming into Pakistan as well.
As for Shah Mehmood Qureshi,HE LEFT PPP BECAUSE OF A REASON that reason was patriotic not his personal. Those saying that he was a foreign minister backed foreign policy he let alone doesn’t make the decision he follows what the party decide i believe that’s how everyone does they do what the party decides but again HE LEFT PPP for a reason which was quite clear he didnt agree with PPP.
This conditional aid of USA is more like USA filling the wells of the rich with more money if this aid had any benefits then tell me why is country still suffering from load shedding why has the CNG prices growing why are the petroleum prices 24/7 fluctuating why is the poor still poor why is country still engrossed in problems its been since the last decade why is country’s economy going down.All these facts show PPP has failed as a government wikileaks reports quoted King Abdullah as saying: “When the head is rotten, it affects the whole body.” I believe mr.10% spent 8 years in jail, NRO beneficiary, or nawaz sharif who set up a fine example for the young generation to come with himself getting a position in Kay Parkers scandal there like curses on people of pakistan.
Look people you are arguing about Imran Khan’s foreign policy and his ideologies atleast give him a chance everyone has the right to it i think he is a far much better politician and a thinker than our current old farts who in their times did nothing country’s still in crises as it was in their times give imran khan a chance if he turned out bad we had been through dictators and again going through zardari we will go through him as well.
@Farian Lets see we all know germany became strong under him hitlers economical policies were excellent enough to get Germany back on its feet from its loss in world war 1 and Germany is still strong and getting stronger even after its loss in world war 2.
Imran khans a fascist or not but if his economical reforms and policies are going to bring change in the current state of Pakistan for the good then let alone he deserves to be the next prime minister of Pakistan im not comparing him with Hitler just wondering WHOCARES WHAT IDEOLOGIES HE HOLD atleast give him a chance we have seen ppp or pml-N they did nothing but rob their own country.
Assets declaration is enough proof for who is better and who is not.
col.imam was killed under the leadership if hakim ulla mesud they just call themselves the taliban there not taliban there savages col.imam didnt support savages he supported the talibans under mulla omar who, requested hakim ulla not to kill him but still they did showed how divided they are get your facts correct not every terrorist just becomes the taliban just because they call themselves that there simple terrorist.
In the end give imran khan a chance he deserves it and dont twist his ideologies and dont let your narrow over grown thinking make you ignore the feelings and needs of a common man.
P.S:ignore the typos people
@Faraz.
I don’t have problem with your prediction, Imran must be given a chance, we have got nothing to lose!
If GHQ removes him I know whose side I’ll be standing on (Imran’s) but what about you and other clairvoyants on LUBP?
@Tight Chuddi
You can search this webpage through Search tab or Google by entering my name (in small letters), and tell me where did I support PPP or Zardari?
I appreciate this blog for taking stance on issues of military, terrorism, minority rights, intolerance, women rights, and busting myths of other holy cows in the media, judiciary etc.
You can surely talk about the pro PPP bias, but you cannot refute facts on these blogs. There is a mullah military alliance which props up political parties, and it’s currently supporting Imran. By not criticizing the mullah military jihadi enterprise, and comparing terrorism with pushtoon nationalism, whether intentionally or out of naiveté, Imran has done the greatest disservice to the nation.
I don’t support any party. And I may vote for PTI, only because Imran talks of better governance which is essential to end terrorism, as poverty and unemployment creates a huge pool of poor people, from which terrorists groups can recruit members.
But I am quite sure it would be my last vote for PTI.
PTI will cease to exist if GHQ turns against Imran. Imran will return to his pre 2009-10 status of a TV celebrity. But i will obviously support Imran if he tries to control these property dealers sitting in the GHQ
PTI will not cease to exist if GHQ turns against it because PTI’s voters came first and then other politicians started joining PTI case in point is Oct 30 Jalsa. Not a lot of politicians joined PTI before Oct 30, but people came out in drones on Oct 30th to show their support for Imran.
Every party needs electables and electables join parties which are viable. PTI has established itself as a viable party hence electables joining it. Now, inshallah when PTI forms it’s government it will strengthen it’s voting base.
And if GHQ get’s in Imran’s way, he will be on the streets with his people demanding superiority of civilian ruler. Bhutto was probably the only leader with genuine support amongst masses, he built his vote bank from ground up. Similarly, Imran has built his vote bank from ground up by struggling for 15 years. Those who say it took Bhutto 2-3 years to built his vote bank are wrong, Bhutto joined politics in 1956 when he joined the cabinet of Ayub Khan.
Benazir inherited her father’s vote bank, it wasn’t her own. Nawaz Sharif is probably the most despicable piece of trash accidental politician. He licked Zia’s balls to have his industries privatised and than by chance became a leader of rightwing. He is the most useless pile of dung to ever exist in Pak politics. He has a history of running away from hardships, i.e. escape to Jeddah and apology to Mush, ran away to U.K during Raymond Davis affair, and now again he ran away to U.K during this memogate scandal.
What despicable pile of dung this bald fart really is!
i suppose we all can reach a consensus since its too late for criticism we have come a long way road of criticizing each other that’s why we stand at where we are ruled by incompetent people.
Quid-E-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah had already foreseen what future Pakistan beholds that’s why he stressed about a secular Pakistan.Zardari tried to bring consensus among the political parties but like the King Abduallah said “when the head is rotten it effects the whole body” he cant be trusted and every ruling party sought its own favors and means for it to be on power.
I never personally supported any political party but i believe imran speaks of a change i want to see what he has in stored for us.
I accept the points you make. Isn’t it correct that things will be easier When the economy improves?
