There is one major difference between Sharif and Taliban. Taliban are visibly insincere to Pakistan and they admit it, whereas, sharif’s insincerity is wrapped in several layers of delusion.
Unlike Zardari, he hasn’t shown even an ounce of improvement in his behavior since his last tenure. He is a prime example of why democracy has failed previously in Pakistan. Even an imbecile can catch that he is constantly distracting the government from governing and dealing with the critical issues faced by Pakistan. Instead of moving forward, he is taking Pakistan back to the same cultutre of Zaban darazi, jehalat, Jalao gherao, leechar siyasat.
We all know how truthful he is to his favorite rhetoric “adliya ka taqaddus.” As some of us still remember, how hundreds of armed supporters of nawaz league stormed into the court room and attacked Sajjad ali shah to prevent him from giving a ruling against him. Later, the same unruly mob stoned the Supreme Court building. In his tenure, he skillfully weakened and divided the judiciary on ethnic basis.
It’s clear as day light that he lacks vision, depth, leadership skills, and most of all sincerity toward Pakistan and its people. He will keep creating chaos and restlessness in the country to create hurdles for government. Fasten your seat belts and get ready for some intense wheat, rice, and water crises originating from Punjab.
The real irony is, he still has a support base of likeminded pakistanies.
