Re: Battle for Lahore.
exactly Hanibal!!! ... Im afraid ppl hav pinned so many hopes on him!!! wht if hes just like other guys?
nobody knows how he is going to get rid of those bloody taliban or wht are his views on PAK-US relationship!
... his rallies, his speeches are no different thn the other guys!! ...
If he provides all the answers to the Pakistani awaam about how he is going to bring all the change ...ill happily support him or even vote for him! ... but until thn im not very hopeful! ... and also one more thing, isnt Jamate-Islami a close associate of Imran Khan?
It is like this, he is being used by PPPP, have you not noticed that both sides do not talk about each other and when pressure is built on Imran, he says a word or two about PPP/ZArdari and yet we do not see anything coming from Sharjeel Memon, Babar Awan and hard line supporter ( of Zardari) Altaf Hussain...
The thing is, even Imran didn't knew what is going to happen, he is just being mesmerized by PPP/Est, check the example of Bhutto, it took him three years and reached every where in Pakistan and that was on solid grounds i.e. having representation on root level... but here, even in the cities like Lahore, if you want do have to search real hard to find any union council office of PTI...
Anyway, he is creating false hopes, the same which was given by Zia and later the 6 point agenda of Mushy... this time Kiyani knows he is not in position to takeover, so what does he do, he is using a pawn, IK, and all they are doing is selling false hopes, selling Utopia, making big but hollow promises...( till here i've no problem) but the problem is, he is taking away the chance to bring the real change, the change which does not suit army establishment, the change which is not in favor of bureaucracy... he is the fake thing which is going to play..
Look at his hundred day plan for example, even you and I can make the same, and as a matter of fact, it has been done right here on Paklinks, several times... now lets for a moment assume that he is going to apply it... and who are going to be his tools, pals, companions, yes likes of Malik Zaheer Khokhar ( the one and only Lota in the history of Pakistan who will be remembered for his LOTAISM), Ijaz Khan Jazi ( who is known for his drug dealing and gambling business), Bhinders of Gujranwala ( Naam he kafi hay), or Fazal Hussain Chuhaan ( the only Lota of JI, who got elected on JI/MMA ticket, switched to PML-Q and now looking for a party and probably PTI is going to be his destination ( i don't know if he had already joined or not).
In short, the companions, the associates, the arms of IK are either LOTAs or the ones who are sure that they'll not get the ticket of their respective parties, be it PML-N or PPP... now i have asked this to many PTIans, both in virtual world ( where i've been boy-cotted, abused) and in real world... all the time PTIans resort to violent behavior, because the mirror they see shows them a real ugly reflection of their hopes...
I can understand the behavior of PTIans, it is like us, watching the match we know we have lost it but till the last ball thinking that Ajmal may hit the six sixes in the last over, or the opponent may ball a no-ball and a wide... and that crucial time talking about upcoming defeat is nothing but an unforgivable sin...
as Illama Iqbal says
Iss Khail Mein Taeyayeen-e-Maratib Hai Zaroori
Shatir Ki Anayat Se Tu Farzeen, Mein Piyada
Bechara Piyada To Hai Ek Mohra-e-Na-Cheez
Farzeen Se Bhi Poshida Hai Shatir Ka Irada!
Farzeen : Queen/Wazir
Piyada : Pawn
Shatir : Chess Player
