Re: lets say …just for the sake argument
First of all PD, thank you very much for not calling me wajib ul qatal, wajib ul drone attack, wajib ul jail time and wajib ul Altaf Hussain proposed butchering. Maybe things are not so bad after all.
Secondly, excellent display of selective logic and wisdom. You have no problem when damaging accusations and sour, frustrated judgments are made against PTI supporters for having difference of opinion (while they do not differ in their aims with others), yourself have made such an ill informed and narrow minded assumption in your post, but you decided to appear upset over an impression I’d drawn? Every other person posting on this forum thinks the person next to them have no knowledge about the ground realities, some even say that people living on ground have no idea about the realities around them. So let’s not waste time on arguing who knows how much and how.
Thirdly, why get so insecure and baffled when PTI supporters question army and PMLN? Why shouldn’t they? When every other person tells you that Imran’s views are so unpleasant and disliked then I ask you, why PMLN and army’s narrative didn’t come on top? If one one political party has difference of views, why on earth other parties and army didn’t form a solid policies? Now it’s a separate issue that PMLN really doesn’t differ in their policies with PTI and it was APC that agreed to launch peace negotiations and support it. But of course people like you would choose to focus on Imran, make him a central point of everything, start and end every debate on him, cannot look beyond him, never stopped talking about him and have the audacity to ask why he’s relevant and so talked about? What kind of logic is that? Doesn’t it sound like hypocrisy?
Fourthly, you are right, hate is a strong word and sad to say, I have seen more than strong reaction and hostility against that man for having an opinion is that I see no reason why not to use that word. It is what it is. Don’t you find it disturbing that Imran’s is literally more attacked and condemned than Taliban? In which civilised country, the leader of second largest part can be referred to as ‘Taliban Khan’ for just offering a different approach to finish this war? Can you any imagine any European leader being termed Nazi a by bunch of journalists and they not just get away with but be praised for it? You find nothing wrong with such toxic judgements? What do you have to say about such poisnous culture of political intolerance where you can’t even hear a differing view without calling another person a TTP supporter or a kafir? Why isn’t there a middle ground? Why must be labelled either a kafir/foreign agent or TTP supporter by extremists from both ends? You see nothing wrong in that?
Fifthly, please properly explain how PTI supporters’ ‘ideological commitment is flawed’. According to you vast majority of them belong to urban middle class who are genuinely secular and equipped with social and economic mobility. These are the people who want free, fair and a well established welfare society. So how on earth anyone could imagine these people have any support to Taliban’s Shariyat (in fact most of them don’t even like Pakistan current constitution with heavy Islamic influence), just because they think selective operation is not a solution and full fledged nation wide operation is something army will not commit to? They are criminals because they are pacifists? They are wajib ul qatal because they think enemy must be defeated differently? They cannot be taken seriously because they think all previous policies have failed to bring peace? They are shameless and callous for asking a swift and bloodless end to this war, so they can finally concentrate on nation building? They are traitorous for always considering heavy civilian casualties and massive scale material destruction? They are narrow minded and ill informed for asking army update the nation on current situation and just make any commitment, any small promise to defeat the enemy and bring peace? I’m waiting for you to yell “NO NO NO NO…WRONG..” and accuse me of having dictatorial behavior, whatever that means.
P.S Great Britain wasn’t called Great for no reason. Thanks for your kind words. Freedom is a wonderful thing, peace is an absolute blessing, and I am so glad to have both in my country. I hope Pakistanis also see and experience these miracle one day too.
“wajib ul qatal, wajib ul drone attack, wajib ul jail time and wajib ul Altaf Hussain”.
“Thirdly, why get so insecure and baffled when PTI supporters question army and PMLN?”*** at least it is not me…i guess you forgot to spot this thread of mine on NS when you were doing some investigative work on me…
http://www.paklinks.com/gs/pakistan-affairs/636248-ns-and-taliban.html
i have laid out point by point why NS sucks on taliban issue…now if rest of the forum is not willing to participate on this topic, what can i do? why didnt you pay attention to this thread?
look, all I am saying for a while is that the discussion on IK, NS and army in relation to taliban and terroism should be mutually exclusive …not mutually dependent. While they have an intertwined relationship on this topic, a mutually-dependent discussion unfortunately always ends up in labeling your least preferred party a scape goat.
Thoriee thandiee laassi peo!!! plzzzzzz
