And how about the GrandDaddy of Kruppshunn, Ayub Khan, Chief? I've told this story before: After Ayub had leaned on GM to take the agency of Bedford trucks and Holden-Australia cars away from Western Motors and give it to Lt. Gen. Habibullah Khan and his son-in-law Gauhar Ayub 2/
2/ and they began to make money handover fist black-marketing the vehicles, QU Shahab says to Ayub during a Cabinet Meeting in flattering tones: 'Sir, Captain Sahib (Gauhar) is doing well in business'. 'Haw, haw, hawww' bellows Ayub, 'Didn't know the boy had it in him! Didn't 3/
3/ know the boy had it in him'!! Note: There was ZERO corruption in Pakistan before the advent of the Great Field Marshal! You listening Gernail Bahadur @GenAmjadShuaib A little shame will do you good. P.S. And what about the Cowardly Commando, @P_Musharraf aka #Mushy?!

Dear Gen. Shoaib, Do you live on Planet Earth, in the Land of the Pure, or do you live on Mars? I should take him to court in a blighted country where neither the Superior Judiciary, nor NAB takes any notice of the huge corruption scandal swirling around Lt. Gen. @AsimSBajwa, 2/
2/ (which made him resign as SAPM?!)? In a blighted country whose first elected PM is assassinated and the assassin is shot dead by a police official who 'happened' to be standing next to him? A country in which another elected PM is judicially murdered by another Army 3/
3/ dictator through a purposely skewed Supreme Court with 4 Punjabis and 3 Non-Punjabis on it, the 3 Non acquitting and the 4 Punjabis hanging him? Where elected PMs are dismissed by autocrats working hand-in-glove with Army Chiefs? Where another PM was jailed and then exiled? 4/

Seen all 3 clips. The time has gone, Fahd, far gone. Too much has been done to Nawaz Sharif and his Party by the Army-led Junta, from rigging the 2018 elections; to #Selecting the absolutely vile @ImranKhanPTI; to having him disqualified through dodgy JITs and dodgier 2/

NAB was NEVER created with good intentions! It was set up as a coercive tool by an Army dictator to put the screws on Opposition politicians, and to pummel them into submission. As the story goes: When Gen. Amjad, a better General than most, hauled Sadruddin Hashwani up, he 2/

Okay. Three matters have come to my attention over this weekend:
1) The 'friends' from my Army days who I have reported on before now asking me to go easy on the #RIGGERS and the #DISAPPEARERS have today charged me with opposing #SelectedNikka @ImranKhanPTI because he 'kicked 2/
2/ you out of your Ambassadorship' (their words)! Lie! Damned lie! The day it became apparent Election 2018 had been stolen and the PMLN had been #ROBBED (NB: @YusufMoeed) of victory I wrote out my resignation and waited for the political moves to end to see who would form 3/

Agree 100%...Kindly note the long whine about India doing this and that and the other (which IS true!); but what then is the Mother of All Agencies whose name must not be mentioned, doing? Poking its grubby fingers into politics and leaving the game to the bloody Indians! 👏👏2/
2/ Must add that given the heightened tensions in the country, GHQ/ISI should NOT rig the elections in GB. But do they have an iota of sense? On another note Re: the whine, the World will not give a fig about countries such as ours which cannot protect its minorities; where 3/
3/ people are disappeared every day; where human rights advocates like #IdrisKhattak remain disappeared for months on end; where innocent University students like Shahid Baloch are shot dead in front of their parents for no reason at all, and where most senior police officers 4/
