THEY may go on for a while, but are very badly exposed as the courageous @MaryamNSharif and her good father are pointing out. The country is almost penniless; the poor are starving; law and order is worsening; and Afghanistan is about to blow up. Time for a FAIR election 2/

2/ under the Constitution with a new Social Contract which transfers real power to the representatives of the people, not those forklifted into power by Political Generals. In India the Services Chiefs wait to see the Defence Minister, here #MasterTeeliCharsi @PervezKhattakPK 3/

3/ our so-called 'Defence Minister' stands on the COAS's left! Which reminds me: perhaps it IS time for @OfficialDGISPR to ask the question: 'Why don't Indians criticise their Army Chief/RAW'? WHY? Why doesn't @adgpi the Indian DGISPR sic a retired Lt. Gen. on to, say, 4/

4/ novelist, political activist Arundhati Roy like @GenAmjadShuaib was sicced on to the eminent scientist/writer/activist Pervez Hoodbhoy? Food for thought, for Ms. Roy heaps ridicule and criticism on the Indian State every so often...! More later...

5/ So, my friend @OfficialDGISPR have you and other Generals asked yourself the question that I have suggested you ask: 'Why is it the case that Indians do not speak of their Army Generals the way Pakistanis do'? I'll try and explain it to you: 1) No Indian COAS has EVER 6/

6/ imposed Martial Law in India; 2) No Indian COAS has EVER colluded with the Indian judiciary to remove an elected PM from office; 3) Every Indian COAS considers himself bound by the Constitution of India; 4) No Indian @adgpi (Your opposite number in the Indian Army) 7/

7/ has ever 'Rejected' a statement by the Government of India like Ghafoora did; 5) No Indian General has ever, first encouraged the siege of New Delhi and when the object of destabilising the Government of India had been achieved, paid the besiegers government moneys to lift 8/

8/ the siege; 6) No Indian COAS has ever welcomed the PM of India to Army HQs bareheaded so he wouldn't have to salute him/her (as the disgraceful Aslam Beg did with BB); 7) No Indian COAS has EVER asked for an extension for himself; 8) No RAW officer has ever interfered in 8/

8/ parliamentary elections; 9) RAW has not disappeared fellow Indians/journalists like we see happening every other day. The list is too long and I have to go back to editing my book, but let me end this session with: 10) NO Indian MI General has EVER said he will 'SMASH' a 9/

9/ leading Indian political leader, and a lady at THAT!!!!!!!! So, put that in your pipe and smoke it, and THINK! Do pass this around GHQ/ISI to see WHY it is that we Pakistanis complain about the way our Political Generals behave. Also please understand that #nikkaNiazi aka 10/

10/ @ImranKhanPTI, your #Selectee, has brought the country to its knees in every possible way: destroying the economy; ruining its standing Internationally; and providing pathetic governance. It is time to cut the #Idiot loose; to go back to your Training Areas and 11/

11/ barracks and to pull your noses out of politics. Let the political forces sort out political problems before it is too late. It is time for fair elections, and for adults to TRY and repair the immense damage that has been done to our country...More later...Be well...

12/ You chaps have done so much harm to the country @OfficialDGISPR that one's mind and heart is so full of loathing for what you've done, that one forgets your other awful older trespasses! No Indian COAS has colluded with, and threatened, the highest Court in India as the 13/

13/ tyrant Zia did with the Anwarul Haq Supreme Court of Pakistan, to hang to death, an #ElectedPrimeMinister, Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. You are too young to remember, but being the @OfficialDGISPR you are sitting upon ALL the news stories concerning that great ignominy! So do ask 14/

14/ your very well paid underlings to P.U. to you the interview that my dear friend @jawabdeyh conducted with 'Justice' Nasim Hassan Shah who was ON the hanging bench made up of four Punjabis against the three OTHERS, to know all, understand all. Go on, do it, and share with 15/

15/ the other youngsters who now form the 'Forum' (as 'Ghafoora' put it) i.e., the Mighty Corps Commanders/PSOs Conference! Pal @MarianaBaabar disappointed you are not part of this conversation! Neither you! @NasimZehra! C.c. @JehangirJm @ZulfiRao1 @ShakilRai2 @SajKhan01273642

16/ Oops! Forgot, my friend @OfficialDGISPR, More soon Insha'Allah. BTW Pakistanis who live abroad and who oppose anti-democratic Army Rule and HR abuses in their country believe that the Pakistani #DeepState sanctions assassinations of dissidents abroad! Note, please: @hrw /17
