can’t you come up with something more witty than calling me a jiyala? I don’t blindly support or hate anyone. I was against Zardari and PPP when he wouldn’t restore the judges. but I support him, Sharif, Asfandyar and all political leaders regardless of party when they’re constantly criticized by traitors like Musharraf who want to take Pakistan back into the dark ages of dictatorship.
even then, okay I take back my comments which you for some reason always find so offensive. in fact, I will even apologize for them. though I think I was being perfectly reasonable when I said what I said. there was another thread where a poster said that she didn’t know much about Pakistani politics but knew that all of them were corrupt. explain to me what is rational about that statement. like what part of that statement makes sense to you. break it down for me please. I’m slow - draw me a picture if you can.
regardless, like I said I take my comments back. so now, explain to me rationally what is so bad about what Zardari donating his organs. what exactly is wrong with this particular act of his that he is still being thrashed?
lastly, even though I think Zardari should get all the credit for PPP govt’s achievements… but since he gets blamed for everything bad that happens in Pakistan, he might as well get some credit as well. so here goes:
- Pakistan was fast losing the fight against the Taliban barbarians. it was the PPP govt that FINALLY took ownership of the war. and started hitting back. yes, there has been a lot of pain and misery but in the long term Pakistan cannot survive unless these bearded barbarians are wiped out. credit must go to the PPP govt for taking this stance which at time was not popular. this is what leadership ought to do - take a difficult position even if it isn’t popular in the short term.
imo, should have been done a long time ago. I know the peace deal with the butchers of Swat was signed, was one of the darkest days I’d seen as a Pakistani. we practically surrendered a part of our country to matric fail retarded moulvis. but dayr ayad durust ayad I guess. finally the govt woke up and put the terrorists in their place.
regardless, PPP has done much better than that double dealing snake Musharraf and the beardos of MMA who spread this Taliban phenomenon in Pakthunkhwa. on one hand collected billions and in the process backstabbed everyone including his own country.

the PPP also deserves credit for how well it handled the IDP crisis. Pakistani ppl imo are just anti-govt. they’re not anti-PPP, anti-PML. they’re just anti-govt. they are like that paranoid child who is always afraid that the govt is going to steal something from them and run off. always scared of getting ripped off for some reason. this is why they hate the govt of the day so much. and never give credit for anything. but the IDP crisis imo was very well handled. IDPs were never going to be given five star accommodations (remember New Orleans?). anyone who expected it is a fool. but all things considered, the govt did very well in handling that situation.

freedom of speech, freedom of press. Musharraf the snake like to bellow about he had given the press its freedom and how the politicians would take it all away. well, guess what… politicians are here. and the press is freer than ever. not only is the press free. but what is said by journalists is noticed and acted upon by those in power. saying this on the basis of some episodes of hasb-e-haal and bolta Pakistan where politicians have responded and followed up on issues raised.
-
and even though the PPP govt should have restored the judges straight away as PM Gilani recently said… and regardless of how ugly things got, lets be fair here. things remained relatively peaceful and the judges were eventually restored after a lot of hoopla on the roads. nobody was murdered like in Musharraf’s time (Hammad Raza shaheed, remember him?).
there is plenty of room for improvement. obviously the visible things have to fixed first and foremost… things like power, inflation, etc have to be fixed before the masses will be won over. but the PPP govt has done plenty right in a short time frame…
