In last few weeks, I’ve been listening to Imran Khan’s speeches, talk shows etc. He seems to be the only beacon of light in the darkness that has taken over every nook and corner of our beloved country.
Today, I was listening to “Khari Baat” a show of Mubashar Luqman where Imran Khan and Hassan Nisar were guests. One suggestion that Hassan Nisar and Mubashar Luqman gave to IK was to start mobilizing the masses NOW against the corruption and current political mafia.
I totally agree with Hassan Nisar. I think, in politics, TIMING IS EVERYTHING. Today, Pakistan is burning, Karachi is burning, corruption is at its top, morality has never seen such low levels as we see now, people are dying by bullets, hunger and no one is standing up for their rights. There is no justice in Pakistan. Mafias and ghundas are running the affairs of our country. There is no protection for majorities or minorities. Chrisitians, hindus, ahmadis are butchered everyday at the hands of religious extremists.
If today, people of Pakistan don’t rise against the injustice and socio-economic horrors that are brought to us by these Political Mafia, then we can safely say ‘good-bye’ to Pakistan. It is very close to becoming a failed state.
I think, NOW IS THE TIME THAT PTI NEEDS TO MOBILIZE THE MASSES AND COME OUT TO STREETS OF PAKISTAN AND DEMAND JUSTICE. IT IS NOW OR NEVER.
I humbly request MR. IMRAN KHAN to trust the people of Pakistan and give a 1 MONTH DEAD LINE to GOVT. OF PAKISTAN to bring the affairs of state in control OR PEOPLE OF PAKISTAN WILL DO IT FOR THE SAKE OF PAKISTAN. IF WE HAVE TO GIVE OUR LIVES ANYWAY, WE SHOULD GIVE IT FOR THE SAKE OF PAKISTAN.
Taking mashwara from Mubasshir Luqman and Hassan Nisar!!
I think Imran is better off taking advice from Meera
Good advice is after all just that.......good advice.... doesn't matter who is giving it. I totally agree that PTI should mobilize the masses and root our this corrupt and anti-pakistan government. The people with vested interests in corrupt parties ruling pakistan will obviously feel a lot of pain from stuff like this. Quite frankly, what else is there to wait for, hundreds of thousands cannot use railway anymore, villages and small cities have virtually no electricity, wapda is gone, previously profitable organiztions like PIA are flooded with incompetent jiyalas whose hefty pays are making the travel costs impossible and losses even more, target killing in every city of pakistan is the norm not the exception.
I think pakistan needs a revolution and from the current lot, PTI is the only option we got for good or for bad.
You may feel that PTI is the only hope or the light at the end of a very dark tunnel......but you have to be realistic......is the party truly ready to take on such a task?
So, what other options do we have? PPP? PML(N)? JUI? Out of this lot, PTI is the only one that can deliver. Besides, Imran Khan on his own has delivered Shaukat Khanam and Namal University. What has the past two decades of democratic and army rule has delivered besides corruption, looting and fundamentalism?
This is what prob gonna happen. A sincere politician (let's call him imran for our discussion's sake) is prob gonna pass away in a couple of years and people will come on sites like these to say things like "it was just a matter of time that he would've been elected and he was gaining popularity etc etc". Whereas in reality this sincere politician has no chance of ever becoming a pm or president in Pakistan since there is too much jehalat and loyalty to ppp, mln, mqm and other luttamar parties for personal gains

Why such hopelessness? If we don't take a stand against these luttarays, then who will? Nations are built by people and destroyed by people. God doesn't help people who don't have zeal and zest to help themselves.
I totally support Imran. Let there be no mistake about that.
But I am not blinded by hope alone.....I see the state of the party and I feel like we are not ready.
For a group in its infancy there is already so much dissension in the ranks......very little leadership other than the man himself and too much in-fighting to make fast progress.
Or maybe I'm just no good at politics and this is what all parties are like.......
I would hate for them to gain control and suck at it so badly that they never have a chance to return. Better they come later than screw up their chances.
I have never voted in my life. I wanted to vote for obama but i didnt and i am happy i didnt. Now I feel like i shld go to pakistan and vote for Imran Khan.
You can be sick and tired just like the rest of us are.....doesn't mean that a group of people that can't organize themselves well without being in power will be the answer to our prayers.
I totally support Imran. Let there be no mistake about that.

do you support an official wahabi/taliban rule in certain parts of the country? you would have that if hazrat imran ullah khan was in power for some reason.
also, what if there is dhoop outside. hazrat imran would have extreme problems dealing with that.

I'd be much more inclined to take your comments seriously and answer them if you presented a decent argument without sarcasm and name-calling.
Obviously your expertise lies in discrediting yourself......
