2/ There's a story about the '65 War which I've written about in several articles in our press over the last 30 years, possibly in the TFT too! Three retired Pakhtun officers were talking about the debacle when Mian Abdul Rasul Rasa the famous Pashto poet and an Information 3/
3/ Dept. officer said to his friends, all sitting around a fire in Nowshera: 'Yera, I met a Foreign Office chap the other day and asked him:' Why did we attack India'? He answered, 'We thaat the Indians would not attaick across the International Barder'! 'Alaka, why you thaat'?4/
4/ Mian Sahib said right back to him!!! Please Pakhtun friends, this is how my Pakhtun friend said it, I am not poking fun at your accents, I swear! 🙏 Likewise my friends at #NayaDaur 'Alaka why you thaat' that #SelectedOaf the quite #Vile@ImranKhanPTI would not do what he did?
Well, Imad, this is the FIRST time that a 'rift' is being bandies about so publicly and so ferociously. Either @OfficialDGISPR should come out and forcefully deny that there is any rift, or the miscreants should be dealt with very severely. On the one hand we are threatened 2/
2/ with jail for 'criticising the Fauj' and on the other #Youthiyas are openly cursing the COAS himself PUBLICLY and asking for soldiers to take off their uniforms and rebel. Action must be taken immediately! Cc @jrshami@MarianaBaabar@JehangirJm@NasimZehra 3/
3/ What a spectacle we are making of ourselves across the World! The COAS can send a Lt. Gen. home through a simple 'Administrative Dismissal', no Court of Inquiry, no nothing. Unless this is all PsyWar against 'Bloody Civilians' and everybody is onside. P.S. Retd. #Khurpas 4/
@jrshami@MaryamShKhan@DrOsamaSiddique Owaise remembers the speech. But far worse was asking troops on the front-line how many they had HAD! At the same time making the Punjabi lewd gesture with the hand! There WERE exceptions: The local school Headmaster a Hindu gentleman came to a student of mine then posted to 2/
@jrshami@MaryamShKhan@DrOsamaSiddique 2/ East Pakistan and told him that a soldier had raped his daughter in his presence. This young Captain from then Lyallpur, lined up his company and asked the young girl and her father to identify the rapist. They pointed him out and the Captain proceeded to hit him with his 3/
@jrshami@MaryamShKhan@DrOsamaSiddique 3/ rifle butt until he broke his arm. He was court-martialed and defended himself so well that all he got was a severe reprimand. There were/are good people too.
Not only that. Facing ignominious defeat with our soldiers abandoned and starving and without ammunition, he begged then PM @NawazSharifMNS to travel to Washington D.C. DURING the July 4th holidays to get Clinton to pull the Army's chestnuts out of the Kargil fire. Clinton 2/
2/ describes his discussions with MNS as the most 'ferocious' ever with NS not yielding. And what does the ungrateful wretch Musharraf do? Mount a coup against his benefactor who forced his way into Washington D.C. against Clinton's advice not to come. THIS is the way our 3/
Open letter to @OfficialDGISPr Dear General Iftekhar, from all accounts you seem to be a good man. So could you start by cutting off the stipend ISPR pays to keep @CynthiaDRitchie aka CynthiaDBitchie on air at @WorldPTV running at the time under the kind control of Ms. Tahira 2/
2/ Syed's husband wotsisname? This 'B' abused the first Muslim PM of a Muslim country, Pakistan, namely #ShaheedMohtarmaBenazirBhutto, in the vilest of terms! Its all on YOUR record. 2) STOP sending your/ISI's goons to harass poor people who help look after my house in Wah 3/

@mazdaki So well said, Doc. This man is so shameless that when he stabbed Benazir Bibi in the back and joined Sardar FL AND became a minister, he badmouthed her in horrible terms. Not only that, when Bilawal became Chairman this swine abused him: a young man we had seen as a 2/

Hear Hear. As I foresaw 2 years ago and more; India seeing us divided: Army against Elected Politicians whom it turfed out of office and then robbed them of their victory, the #Vile#Braindead Idiot using the good offices of NAB locking up former Prime Ministers, even their 2/
