You are either disingenuous, clueless or on regime's payroll if you think this fuel hike is just because of Iran War.
This is colonial style extractive politics 101 at work.
If it was really about Iran war the regime would absorb the global macro/oil shock themselves by ending the costly war in Afghanistan right away, and giving up their free petrol allowances, luxury jets, and privileges. But they haven’t and they won’t.
Because crises like these are the best time for illegitimate regimes and tyrants to pass on the burden of their corruption and misgovernance to the public, and extract quick billions on the crushing backs of the poorest people in the society. It's just too good of a moment to miss robbing your people. You can always celebrate their resilience later.
Just remember, the regime didn't go through all the effort of robbing an entire election, your vote, to serve you; they did it to plunder you and distract you while they are at it, which is exactly what they have done for past 3 years.
Iran war is just one more convenient excuse for the Pakistani ruling elite to do exactly what they’ve been doing for last 77 years.
Wake up, or you never will!
I asked ChatGPT if it wants to say something to Bakhtawar Bhutto Zardari
Here is the answer:🤣😂🤣
1.“She’s so rich and sheltered, her idea of ‘struggle’ is when the Wi-Fi drops to three bars on the private jet.”
2.“She calls it ‘self-made’ because she once picked a handbag without her assistant’s help.”3.“She calls it generational wealth. Everyone else calls it ‘missing budget’ with great skincare.”
4.“She didn’t grow up with a silver spoon—she grew up with a gold shovel, helping bury the ‘family business’ details.”
5.“Her inheritance isn’t ‘earned’—it’s just taxpayer money taking a scenic route.”
Our demand has been clear from the beginning: Imran Khan has to be examined and treated by specialist doctors in the presence of his personal doctor (Dr. Asim Yousaf) along with a family member present at Shifa International in Islamabad.
The Govt rejected the specialist recommended by our doctors, so they were provided with alternative names. We had given Dr. Uzma Khan’s name to represent our family. We were told that Imran Khan’s sisters will not be permitted and we must provide an alternative name to represent the family. We then gave them our cousin Dr. Nausherwan Burki’s name to represent the family. We are very disturbed when they rejected his name as well.
This is unacceptable! Our concerns are growing as to WHY are they rejecting our family member to be present? Are both names (Dr. Uzma and Dr. Nausherwan) being rejected because they are highly qualified doctors?
Dozens dead in a suicide bombing last week. Former prime minster goes partially blind from inhumane prison conditions. Human rights lawyers are jailed for a tweet. Not a good look on Pakistan. The State must do better. If not for ethics then at least do it for the optics
Imagine supporting a man opposed by the CIA, Mossad, Zionists, Raw, liberals, and both local & international mafias. What a man, I’ll back him in every lifetime.
While the Govt of Pakistan tries to hide face and pretend to make a u turn on the Trump Plan, citizens who raise voice for Palestine are going missing. Jameel Behram, a vocal activist on Gaza, has been repeatedly abducted 1am last night from his home in Karachi as per family. #ReleaseJameelBehram
اس ویڈیو کے آپ تک پہنچنے سے پہلے ہم پر اسرائیلی حملہ ہو چکا ہو گا اور ہم قتل یا گرفتار کر لیے گئے ہوں گے. میں اس موقع پر پوری قوم سے ایک بار پھر کہوں گا کہ ہم جس مقصد اور جس مشن کے تحت یہاں آئے ہیں - نسل کشی کو رکوانا، انسانی امداد کی راہداری کو کھولنا - اس مشن کو آگے بڑھانے کے لیے آپ اپنے تعلیمی اداروں میں، بازاروں میں، بار کونسلز میں، سڑکوں پر، ہر جگہ آواز اٹھاتے رہیں۔

You have surrendered the interest of the Palestinians to the Zionist powers. You have arrested your own citizens for speaking up on Gaza. Today your citizens are in the captivity of Israel. Do you have the courage to at least demand and ensure their safe return? @CMShehbaz@OfficialDGISPR
IMAGINE SENDING 20 WARSHIPS TO INTERCEPT BOATS CARRYING MILK POWDER AND BABY FORMULA FOR STARVING CHILDREN. THIS IS THE GREATEST EVIL EXISTING IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW!!!!!
We categorically reject the Prime Minister’s statement. The United Nations Charter is clear: every nation has the right to armed struggle if its land is occupied, and no power can forcibly deny this right. To praise any so-called peace proposal built upon the bodies of 66,000 martyred Palestinians is to stand with the oppressors. Without the will and consent of the Pakistani nation, how can any individual dare to speak in the voice of Donald Trump?
My passport prohibits me from entering Israel because the Pakistan I belong to has a duty to the Palestinian people. A Pakistan that forsakes that moral and sacred obligation is an embarrassment and a humiliation.
To the people of Balochistan: The time has come to claim your freedom. As we bring an end to Pakistan, rise up, strike, and take what is rightfully yours.
Being exposed to absolute psychopaths from India, one does feel a special kind of joy and gratitude for being born on the right side of the border. Pakistani people, with all their flaws, are miles ahead in maturity and class.
