i feel pity for him seeing behind bars
Now, when the people have acknowledge the true face of Musharrafa and Benazir, Nawaz shareef is gaining popularity and there is nothing abt Imran in the media!!!!!
when will we discern that all these old Faces are looters, only Imran can save PAkistan????
Dear Admin,
If possible try not to be part of the prevailing YELLOW JOURNALISM.
Doesn’t make sense?
Let me give you a clue.
If only you can start some constructive discussion/ forum it will help a lot.
Still confused?
OK let me try other way.
In fact everyone loves commenting on the problems because it is “INâ€? these days and is accepted as the benchmark for PATRIOTISM (feel gloomy when look at this state of affairs in our nation and to tell the truth sometimes pathetic about ourselves as well). Ask some Psychologist who I hope will agree that it is only fuelling the fire of FRUSTRATION in the nation. What will we get out of it, nothing but “false perceptions” and “angry decisions”, thus sponsoring political schism and helping status quo in our national politics to stay, for the better of retrogressive forces or, more appropriately, should be called anti-national forces- all this happens because truth is hidden from us, but for a nation it should not mean to loose heart and become victim to these negative forces which will always be around.
At least few if not many will agree that this is not what we need but on the contrary are desperate for the change long due for us. This can better be done if we focus more on translating and transforming prudent individual efforts to collective force needed for this change. It can be achieved more effectively by “bridging the differences� not between the political forces in the form of leadership but in the form of general public- the impetus behind the aforesaid.
Again there is a big question mark “From where to start� there can be many answers or points to start e.g. we can begin by making an individual believe that he/ she can make a difference by “voting� all according to own political understanding and irrespective of the thought that it will not make a difference. Again this is not to happen once but always in life and if those who were elected failed to accomplish his/ her promises to less than 50% will not get that individual’s vote next time.
Beyond that if the individual is willing than should try to make at least one other individual around to participate with same conviction and confidence in the political process. In this way an individual can not only influence the political system but can well be part of the social articulation for a new and “evolutionary political system� representative of true national aspirations and needs- which is strong and just and is always there to compensate for the occasional absence of strong and sincere leadership which nations have to suffer at times.
Dear Psychologist
Every little helps. Admin is doing a wonderful job and should carry on. This is democracy where everyone has right to say. True there may be frustation and people might vent up their frustation. But people should know whats happening. Why do u call it yellow journalism. Admin hasnt done anything. It has provided a forum where anyone can come and express themselves. If you dont agree with the questions they pose u can choose either not to answer that or answer the one u like.
So I would suggest that http://www.pkpolitics.com is doing a wonderful job and should continue to do so. This is democracy and everyone has the right to express themselves according the UN Human Rights Act – FREEDOM OF THOUGHT AND FREEDOM OF SPEECH.
In fact you are acting against free press by objecting to it.
It can be the best site voted for all the Pakistanis especially who are overseas.
God bless
First of all this site is a good effort… I love open forums myself; see what happened to the forums on yahoo news, they had to shut em down… so I think admin is doing a nice job by keeping things simple….
Now a word on the Benazir-Musharaf deal… Benazir stole millions of dollars from the Pakistani people and all the black money is being turned into white by this deal. To me by doing this Musharaf should be charged with treason… Army see treason in the case of Javed Hashmi but their own chief has proved to be the biggest traitor of Pakistan by compromising on national interested, killing his own people and dealing with wanted criminals who have eaten our country… By doing so he is also encouraging others to come in politics eat the nation and get away with it… it’s a shame… Musharaf says his uniform is his second skin; I think he needs the uniform because it is his “Do-whatever-I-want-and-get-away-with-it” power… he ain’t gonan go away like this.. only people of Pakistan can drag him out of the scene.. we need a CIVIL WAR to correct things else one traitor will be replaced by another…. God save our country from enemies foreign and “domestic”. Amen
Well we are not the people who take their rights by force we been silence for around 60 years. What will you tell when we see Lal Masjid Massacre and no one stands? We are totally divided by language and religion and we always wanted someone will come from out side and do some magic. Now every one looking toward our newly independent judiciary including our politicians.
Yeah there will only be one way we will be united as its happened earlier to other nations is a nation wide disaster may be a War.
I ask Allah if only war can make us unit then i ptay for a war Ameen.
i really appreciate the effort and time u r putting in this forum…. all programs uploaded r v.very informative… there is another program on AAJ TV hosted by “Talat Hussain” by the name of “Live with Talat”…. i live in US and couldn’t got time to watch it on tv… i would really appreciate if u start uploading that show also in here…. i watched some of its shows on youtube…. its amazing man!….. Talat Hussain come on camera with full confidence and with complete preparation, he holds complete grip on the subject matters…. he also keeps the show very much focused and his thesis is always about the core problems of Pakistan….. i will admire if u start uploading…. “LIVE WITH TALAT” from AAJ TV…. i would say it is one of the best talk shows on any TV Channel.
thanx

there is no doom and gloom from the admin, it is the mush gov. saying so and even want to impose emergency, certainly they won’t be doing it saying we are doing aswesome..they will say we are in deep trouble so need to declare emergency…it is about time we let the people decide who should rule us and not the army generals
