Re: Election 2013

Maybe if the government takes a little break from never ending corruption and give a little time to actual governance, things would look better.

Off topic, but do you have an idea why we have the measles epidemic? Why the kids did not receive the vaccine?

Re: Election 2013

Why is your post only about Karachi? These parties are being targetted all over Pakistan wherever Taliban are strong. This includes both Karachi, KPK, and Balochistan.
You obviously have myopic vision. Taliban’s targetting has nothing to do with PhD to Rehman Malik or anything else. Rather it has to do with the basic ideology of these parties, which is against extremism.

PTI and PMLN are being spared by Taliban because they are right-wing parties leaning towards tolerance with Taliban ideology. While PPP/ANP/MQM are not being spared only because they are openly against it.
Nothing to do with performance or anything else.

I am amazed why people like you would hate anyone so much that it would cloud your common sense and ability to analyze things properly. Or is it deliberate spread of misinformation that you are looking for?

Really amazing that someone has to explain such obvious things to supposedly educated people.

Re: Election 2013

No matter what Imran's policies are, I am pretty sure that people who support him are desperate for change. Such people are definitely better than those who still support parties like PPP or PMLN.

Re: Election 2013

I do not disagree with you. You are talking about the reason they are being targeted which I do not dispute. The question is: Cry about it all the time or actually DO SOMETHING about it?

I am just saying these parties did nothing to prevent spread of this disease while being in government over last few years. Only crying about it would have been okay if it were PML(N) or PTI in power in Sindh for last few decades. I talked about Karachi specifically because it is actually these parties holding power there for decades and actually helped decay of law and order in the city through their own militant wings. Also specifically Karachi because supposedly people from outside came and carried out terrorist activities. Now, if police were trained and equipped to combat all this, instead of being used to fan violence, things would have been different.

All three parties kept on blaming each other during the first three years of last government and that's about it.

And maybe someday after the elections depending on the results IK will thanks PPP and PML-N.

Super and Permanent Lotay Joining Imran Khan’s PTI

Definitely there would be lotay joining PTI for quick gains. Probably PTI will turn out to be Jamaat-reincarnated. But I am just saying that common folks who support PTI do it because they want to see improvement and because they realize how hopeless other available options are.

Re: Election 2013

Agreed. It is not attractiveness in PTI, IK's charm or chrisma, quality of leadership, policies or agenda of the party, whatever. It is actually the disgust with PPP and PML(N)'s performance which leads people to PTI with a hope things might be a little better with them. People do not believe that PTI would or could be able to do what it promised but they only hope that the downward spiral that we are in might at least get slowed down a little bit.
