@SecBlinken@anwaar_kakar The single most anti-democratic force in the world today is the US State Department. Remove the popular, elected government; watch the absolute suppression of the population and the popular party and call it "free and fair?" How stupid do you think the world is? Shameless.
@BrookingsFP@MadihaAfzal Just as assassination has been outlawed, so too must political interference of any type also be outlawed. If it is unacceptable for Mssrs. Putin and Xi to interfere in our elections, so too must it be unacceptable for us to interfere in any other democracy.
@BrookingsFP@MadihaAfzal Donald Lu (not mentioned in the piece) is not a villain. He is only the public face of an entrenched philosophy of superiority and domination that oozes from all of our institutions (public and private) in the invisible empire that prolongs modern neo-colonialism.
@BrookingsFP@MadihaAfzal There is nothing new under the sun. As Bilawal so aptly stated in a meme that will surely be played a million times during the next elections: "Welcom to Purana Pakistan."
@BrookingsFP@MadihaAfzal While the Brookings piece suggests engagement on non-security issues, the goals still remain domination (of US national interests), exploitation, and from the subjugated, obeisance and obsequiousness. Criticism shall not be brooked.
@BrookingsFP@MadihaAfzal "a big opportunity to fundamentally alter U.S.-Pakistan relations." Good luck with that. The level of rage within Pakistan and within the diaspora doesn't bode well for re-engaging with the kleptocracy during their short tenure wherein their primary goal is to erase their cases.
