It is in the benefit of the State of Pakistan to seriously consider slowly and carefully changing the long-standing instinct of almost all Pakistani policymakers (from all institutions) to… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
All of Pakistan’s neighbours and most countries in the region have chosen their blocs and so must Pakistan. And I would seriously suggest choosing China. Not least because of obvious geographical reasons, but because the United States does not help any other country other than… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
China, on the other hand has very real, long-term, stable and strong ties to Pakistani national security interests and state objectives. Both countries have a large number of joint interests, and our alliance is naturally the most advantageous one. However, there is apprehension… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image

The Pakistani Intelligence Community has said that its unbinding assessment to the Election Commission of #Pakistan is that the security situation at this point in time, especially with regards to unconventional and insurgent threats, is not conducive for holding provincial
elections in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa provinces. This is a consequence of the ongoing multi-front battle the Pakistani Joint Security Forces are fighting against a number of armed terrorist groups that aim to destabilise Pakistani society through fatal violence against
Pakistani civilians, soldiers and infrastructure.

The current security outlooks, risk assessments and the latest intelligence indicates a non-coverable threat to the lives of civilian during polling activities.

It is heartbreaking to see the severe transformation of the public’s relationship with the military and the still-present downward, spiralling trend of the relations between the People, the soul of the nation-state, and the Armed Forces, the guarantor of its existential security.
The fact of the matter is that successive Pakistani leaders, of all kinds, have remained consistently unable to put duty & national interests above personal indulgences & ego.

The role of the people in aiding & abetting the election of these non-deserving dynasties is debatable.
Every day the people of this country wake up to a new wave of hopelessness and attack on our freedoms, future and right to decide our own destiny.

Every day our enemies hatch plans to further weaken our resolve and national interests.

Every day we choose to look the other way.
