Conflicting Narratives

Re: Conflicting Narratives

@Iconoclast

There are two narratives in Pakistani Press & Social Media at present both with glaring inherent contradictions.

The Left Narrative: PML-N and PTI are supporters of Taliban, and responsible for lack of army action against them. Contradiction, a paragraph down this, Army establishment is protecting Taliban. Prototype of this narrative on GS ; Shamraz Khan. The question is if Army establishment is really protecting Taliban then why blame N & PTI, if there is no one to fight the war, whom should the political parties be asking to conduct operation.

The Right Narrative: Taliban are fighting against US forces. Any loss of innocent lives is work of blackwater or India to blemish the image of righteous bearded men. Pakistan shud join Taliban to fight US and live happily ever after (in afterlife). Contradiction, the Taliban claim responsibility of suicide attacks and they say no its not their work. Prototype of narrative on GS: Janjua

I fail to understand if this is a COUNTRY..and it is RUN by a GOVERNMENT why we need a telephone call from the TALIBAN to confirm if it was they or not. Where is the intelligence? taliban get support from other countries? do these other countries drop weapons from sky? or have dug underground tunnels? where are border security forces? and then its the PA claiming to be champions of the country. just get ur house in order and these things should fall in place..
who is actually benefiting from this ‘beating about the bush’? our enemies…
