Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

Although the other conversation is more relevant here ... I wanted to say that it was the war on terror that brought the Taliban into Pakistan in the first place. There was absolutely no link of 9/11 to Afghanistan ... except the idea that Usama bin Laden was there ... to get just one man they could have sent spies over a course of 2 years to root him out ... the attacks were totally unnecessary.

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

I like Imran Khan ... he has feelings ... he behaves like an "insaan da puttar" as they say in Punjabi ... can't say the same for any other politician.

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?


and just because you have 'personal knowledge' of this everybody should stop supporting PTI, and based on "my personal knowledge" everybody should stop supporting PPP, based on someone else's personal knowledge everybody should stop supporting PML-N etc etc etc

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

No need to stop supporting him,
Hope to see him some thing of Lahore by grace of Malik Riaz and establishment after next election.

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

:p

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

As of now, even his worst critics are estimating at least 20 seats for PTI. And there're no signs of elections YET. His popularity peaks in Lahore/GTR belt and is fast spreading elsewhere, as can be seen from the response to his public gatherings. He does use a lot of rhetoric, but my guess is it's mostly motivational in nature to mobilize his support base.

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

The simple answer is, not among voters - those who vote for baradries or along ethnic lines, the wadera followers etc. - that really matter

It is going to be hard for IK to break the staus quo

I admire his sincerity and determination but do not support his indifference to taliban and religious militancy. The threat from extremists is not imagined but real

I, however, oppose drones because they kill more innocents than criminals. Loss of innocent lives in the name of collateral damage is unacceptable to me atleast

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

so true. NS is a duffer, can't speak coherently or intelligently on any issue

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

Imran khan is the biggest jowker and so are his supporters

He threatened Abdul sattar edhi along with ISI, His regularly contacting azhar mia to help him in making his party stronger and azhar mia is the person the formed PMLQ along with musharraf

he at this moment has got a soft spot for musharraf once again and he is dreaming of becoming a governor or the prime minister.. his living style is better than nawaz sharifs when he's earnings are no where near Ns's

and more than all rather than focusing on zardari a peoples party he is just after Nawas sharif which clearly shows his intentions and sincerity

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

Sounds like BS to me. Would you like to explain how Imran Khan threatened Edhi?

If you don't support him, don't make such outlandish claims.

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?


Imran Khan gives more than Rs 12-15 lac in income tax whereas your beloved Nawaz Sharif hardly gives Rs 5,000 income taxes, try again.

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

It was Nawaz who first started a dirty smear campaign against Imran by unnecessarily bringing up his personal life (Sita White affair) on the eve of the 1996 election. And are we talking of the same Nawaz who has been playing friendly friendly himself with Zardari and co. for the last 3.5 years? PML-N has failed to provide meaningful or effective opposition in parliament. jab bhi poocho why is opposition so weak & useless and not playing it's due role ... jee hum system ko (in other words apni corruption ko) bacha rahe hein!!! What a joke of a politician. And Sharif's rightist religious leanings are well-documented.

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

RS are u feeling ok... its a well known fact that muslim league and ppp were the worst enemies.. and IK always supported anti nawaz vote

secondly bringing up Imran Khans personal life was not done by nawaaz and dats an accusation by IK as i mentioned earlier imran is too low for nawaz's level so he (nawaz) doesn't bother to even respond to him and that is something imran khan begs for

3rdly being a prime minister of the islamic republic of pakistan is not a small thing and a man with a dirty personal life can never be given such a role so thanks god he was exposed and nawaz sharif has religious leaning and thats the reason which qualifies him to be in power as its according to our 1973 constitution

And Mr Captain Nawaz sharifs tax was 22 lac before that 18 lac.. 5000 is a propaganda done by IK again.

The problem is imran khan has no limits when he criticises Nawaz and then when he realises it has back fired then he starts blaming the media and says oh N-league are running some campaign against me etc etc and that's something which exposes his immaturity more and more
i seriously used to like imran khan and still do but recently some of his policies reflect his immaturity that's the reason why i am favouring Nawaz over him, however i have nothing to do with nawaz or his party im just a political student and that's all

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

What could be better PR for Siree Pavay than a self proclaimed Gujjar as his supporter? Will you slaughter us all with an axe if we're not with PMLN?

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

And think of big hording on every street of** Chicho ki Malian**.
There will be no mod to give a warning

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

If anything Zardari emerged a bigger politician after 2008 elections. He used NS like tissue paper before the ouster of Mush. Nawai-i-Waqt editor Majeed Nizami was even propagating the idea on TV that since no party had won a clear majority, if the PM was from PPP, then the president should be from PML-N ... sadly NS ka yeh khawab adhoora reh gaya..

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

I don't belong to pmln, i have a right to express my political view as well as others.. the problem is when you align someone with whom they have nothing to do with

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

Assumptions

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

it good to see his popularity rising, now only if it can translate into reality and win votes.

Re: Is Imran Khan's Popularity Rising?

don't like the sharifs because they are corrupt but I quite like Javed Hashmi in PML-N
