Defensive military warfare against an unjustified aggressor and regional hegemon compromising your territorial sovereignty. A beautiful sight to behold.
It took a while, but the Pakistani left has finally come out as pro-Ukraine on armed international conflict. Proud of us all. ๐ฅฒ๐ซก ๐ต๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ณ
#TwitterHive- Recommendations needed for a political history of the provinces in pakistan. Looking for instances of governor rule being imposed. 1947-present (but even up to 2000 is fine). Please suggest avenues for research and retweet i have no reach on here.
Why isn't PTI forming a govt in coalition with PPP? They could've got this over and done with yesterday. The answer to this question might contain within it an explanation for the events of the last 2 years - VONC, disunity in the face of ramped up hybridism etc.

But if there's one thing this party has consistently done - except for 3.5 years of its existence - is waste the people's mandate. Boycotting, dissolving, sit-in, sit out the parliament, the parliamentary process. Good luck to it all, others might choose to move on with the work.
Voters may have been brave to mount a stunning rebuke to establishment engineering at the polls, but the vehicle they have chosen to channel this anger is bereft of any creative solutions and leadership in crisis. It's a one trick pony: dharna fasaad.
To squander this victory snatched from the jaws of defeat would be a historic degree of political ineptitude. And yet that is precisely what is about to happen. All the while everyone else in the world will be blamed as it all goes down instead of stepping up to the moment.
To be clear: the answer is, the exterminationist logic of PTI. No opposition is acceptable, no negotiated settlements even from a place of numerical strength. Full spectrum elimination. Bend to single party, single person or no deal. Can't work in a parliam. system w/ 33% vote.

Popular vote count shows differential rates of growth in party vote banks from 2018. PTI has grown its votes >1.5x than PML-N; PPP has grown >2x.
PPP unscathed by PDM & benefited most in relative terms despite turmoil of last 2yrs.
@YusufMoeed Do you have any comments about foreign involvement in regime change in Pakistan in April 2022? Have you raised any concerns with your US colleagues? Do you plan on maintaining your American citizenship or can we expect an anti imperialist stance of giving up your citizenship?
