@iamthedrifter As is said in Punjabi: Pego, pego kay juttian!~! @JehangirJm @MarianaBaabar @NasimZehra Didn't Nawaz Sharif say exactly this not only 5 years ago but even earlier. Indeed didn't BB say this also in 1988 when she was labelled a RAW agent?! Poor, poor Pakistan! 2/
2/ Didn't Rajiv Gandhi visit Islamabad when the two PM's promised to de-escalate on Siachen and the great Vai Ell did the cartoon showing a Hindu priest and a Mullah in the background and the two PM's in front saying to each other, 'Let us leave them BEHIND and climb the 3/
3/ mountain? But BB was again branded a 'Security Risk' by none other than Ch. Ghulam Hussain in his English rag he used to bring out of Gulberg Main Market! P.S. Vai Ell brought the cartoon to me at 6 AM to hand over to the Indian PM whose flight was departing at 9 A.M.!

If we are to survive, and to improve to become a civilised nation, NEVER forget this, my friends/Civil Society. NEVER forget that the man who now touts 'fixing our own home' today is the same man who revolted against an elected PM and government who said EXACTLY this 5 years ago!
2/ AND in a compact with the Judiciary saw him hounded out of office on one pretext or the other, including the crappy 'Panama Leaks'. Indeed, let us ask @OfficialDGISPR and include @MarianaBaabar and @NasimZehra who write on Pakistan's Security so often: If the undisputed 3/

@KlasraRauf @ZahidGishkori My dear Klasra Sahib, Just now saw you programme on Justice Qazi Faez Isa and have come away most disappointed. 1) Surely you know EXACTLY why he is being dragged through the mud? 2) Surely you know that this pathetic excuse of a #Selected 'Govt' has 2/
2/ treated the Judge shamefully by, say, pasting a notice from the FBR on the gate of his house in Judge's colony? Surely you know that people like Shahzad Akbar have been rude and discourteous about him publicly? As to Nawaz Sharif and Family I am afraid you delivered an 3/
3/ unkind cut by saying they always need a 'Judge' to overturn their sentences! I find it curious that you did not mention the terrible language used by Saqib Nisar and Khosa about Nawaz Sharif. Neither did you mention the fact that #Selectednikka @ImranKhanPTI was deemed 4/

I know President Zardari: he would never fall for a ruse of this kind. There's something missing here. Has something snapped?! Did MNS's strong words make them panic? I mean even the duffers can't expect this sort of blatant chicanery to succeed?! Or are they stupider than that?!
2/ OK! More leaks from #BunnyGala. It appears #selectedNikka is not so hapless, but that he has Bajwa/Faiz on the ropes. When @YusufRazaGilan1 won against Sheikh #nikka summoned the duo to #BunnyGala and read them the riot act: Defeat Gillani in the Chairman polls otherwise I 3/

You know what #GUTTERSNIPE? I knew you were a heartless, coldblooded crook when you took your good father's thumbprints while he was comatose to transfer his property to yourself. I also knew you would debase yourself serving our mendacious #DeepState and lie incessantly 2/
2/ in its favour. But I never knew you would dive so deep into the sewer to make some bucks! Have you seen the Food truck in which #nikkaNiazi is shown handing out food with a uniformed chef complete with toque on his head? What do you think that truck would cost? Ball 3/
3/ Park figure is $60,000.00 CIF. Thats almost Rs. 1 Crore for ONE! Got it, #Thumbelina? You are propagating bloody nonsense trotted out by the grifter! Be ashamed of yourself!!

There's been a long report on CNN by Becky Anderson just now on how the second of Suu Kyi's people have been found dead in their cells and how the Junta is cracking down on anti-Military reports in the Press/TV Stations and outlets being closed. So what's new for us Pakistanis?2/
2/ How about a report on the hundreds of our disappeared and tortured and beaten and shot to death, over the years? How about journalist Saleem Shahzad whose broken body was dumped in a canal in May 2011 days after we ran into each other in a briefing at the U.S. Embassy, 3/

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/

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/
