Naturally I would never condone violence, but it doesn't take much for the nation's collective patience to snap. When you're on a knife-edge, all it takes is one small push. I hope to God it never comes to this, but we're hurtling in the same direction.
I was horrified to see the same government minister we were debriefing on a weekly basis, popping up online in a video where he was made to strip down and beaten mercilessly - all within the confines of his luxurious splashy mansion in Kathmandu.
Pakistan’s political analysts are ill equipped to explain or predict what happens here. They confuse the legitimate fears of IK’s party, his family for IK’s wishes. What is happening is taking a brutal toll on him, but he will not concede. This makes these analysts very 1/2
The usual human rights defenders and card-carrying liberals will tie themselves in knots rather than accept that the precedent being set is disgusting and destructive. Fear the day when the tide will turn.
The moral boundaries of everything being done to Imran Khan, his party, and his followers are being continually redrafted. To the point where our overlords would rather double down - because if they lose, the proportionate retribution (if it happens) would annihilate them.
🚨 BREAKING: PFF Congress finally approves FIFA's suggested constitutional amendments. The FIFA suspension should lift soon and, if done before March 4, Pakistan could still play the upcoming AFC Asian Cup Qualifiers!
@javeednusrat I'd love to hear your thoughts about the perils of alcoholism, and the impact it can have on one's mental capacity. A full segment please.
PAKISTAN UPDATES:
It is 4:40PM in Pakistan right now. I have pieced together what happened last night based on confirmed reports:
- Protestors were gathered near D chowk Islamabad when all lights in the area, including on the containers, were turned off.
- There were multiple Pakistan Army Special Services Group forces deployed on the buildings nearbly armed with night vision goggles and snipers.
- After lights were turned off, the police and rangers on the ground started indiscriminately firing in the direction of the protestors.
- Meanwhile the snipers on the roofs started shooting at the cars and group leaders on the ground.
- At the same time, Army's infiltrators started setting fire to containers in which PTI leaders were on.
- Initially people did not realize what was happening, but as they saw dead bodies fall among them, they started panicking.
- Hundreds of people left their vehicles and fled on foot.
- Some dead bodies were taken to nearby hospitals, the govt has now stopped these hospitals from giving out accurate number of dead bodies or giving the bodies to the families of the deceased.
- Some people were transporting their dead to their hometowns on their own, those were intercepted by the military and 'arrested' - if you could call it that.
- Right now the military junta is trying to underplay what is now being called the "Islamabad Massacre" by lying to the international media and hiding true casualty figures.

this is a list of its founders jfyi.
“All records of dead and injured have been confiscated by authorities. We are not allowed to talk. Senior government officials are visiting the hospital to hide the records,” he said.

Whenever a legitimate democratic government is elected to power, I will happily through my support behind an extensive audit of local NGOs and Human Rights agencies. This scam has gone on for long enough.
The only revolutions our cucked liberal elite and academia can get behind is one that has red outfits, nice catchy anthems about Marxism, and Taimur Rehman butchering a guitar on stage.
