But General Tariq Khan says ALL political partys are equal for the Army. That it gave the same support to the PPP and PMLN that it gives to the PTI🤤🤤

3/ Indeed it is nonsense. In this case the Army/ISI are PART of the #SHITSHOW...first pulling down the Balochistan govt. Then rigging GE18 in broad daylight and on Live camera, and then manipulating the Senate elections AND votes in Parliament!!
4/ So let me write in detail on Lt. Gen. Tariq Khan (who is clearly @OfficialDGISPR 's nominated spokesman)'s quite galling interview with @ranamubashir01, who as I said before, threw soft balls at the interviewee, laced with suggestions. So, on the internal situation Rana 5/
4/ So let me write in detail on Lt. Gen. Tariq Khan (who is clearly @OfficialDGISPR's nominated spokesman)'s quite galling interview with @ranamubashir01, who as I said before, threw soft balls at the interviewee, laced with suggestions. So, on the internal situation Rana 5/
5/ says (Please note all the words are NOT verbatim, but show what RM and TK actually meant), (Quote) RM: These days many people become tools in the hands of hostile countries and talking of politicians, they think they are macho if they bash/grill the Army. Why? 6/
6/ TK: 'Mubashir this is why I agreed to this interview. We must understand the environment. China is the largest economy in the World. It is building the BRI which will connect Asia with Africa and Europe, 2/3 of the World's population. The head of the BRI is CPEC. If someone 7/
7/ wants to harm BRI, they must harm CPEC first. Who is affected by BRI? United States is being isolated. A few days ago the US signed a defence pact with India. Who is the defence pact against? India cannot fight China so the pact is against CPEC. So how do you fight against 8/
8/ CPEC? There are two ways: One is War and the second is 'Other Means'. Now, war is a big phenomenon of which military conflict is the smallest component which comes at the end. The Economy; Infrastructure; Communications; Media, all of them are part of this War. However, now 9/
9/the War is at the stage of 'OtherMeans' which people do not understand. So, talking of the Internal Situation, people are divided into groups; Sectarian/Political/Extremist/Separatist and are being funded from outside which is why they are knowingly or unknowingly, playing 10/
10/ in enemy hands and spreading destruction. It'll make no difference to Pakistan or to the Army but this is a difficult time. RM: So what are you doing about it at your end? TK: Well, I am not the Army's spokesman(!) but it must be thinking of something! However the Army is 11/
11/ such a big 'Idara'; it has great DEPTH and a great LEGACY. These are small, insignificant (Chhotay Motay loag) people who come and go! These small men will go away too! (UNQUOTE). I don't know if your head is spinning, reader, but mine is, and I feel like throwing up. 12/
12/ I mean here is a retired Lieutenant General of the Pakistan Army, now heading one of its largest industrial companies and THIS is what he thinks of the Joint political leadership of this unfortunate country! Çhhotay Motay' loag? Who are being paid by foreign intelligence? 13/
13/ And who would be part of an effort to harm CPEC that the senior-most leader of the PDM, Nawaz Sharif did so much work for? See how he talks about the United States? Did he clear what he was going to say with the Foreign Office/the ISI/@OfficialDGISPR ? How can such a 14/
14/ senior officer mouth off on foreign affairs so nonchalantly? Whilst one has seen this behaviour before, it always FURTHER boggles the senses to see that these generals have learnt no lessons at all? Let me add that I always thought Tariq Khan was better than this! 15/
15/ I knew his gentle parents, may the Lord rest them. BTW, RM did not ask ONE follow-up question; did not attempt to challenge TK on even ONE of his utterances regarding political leaders. Not ONCE did he say TK was levelling most serious charges against the political 16/
