In the business community, Asim’s posture would be considered submissive, signaling indecisiveness and weakness.

 

[Taimoor]

Outside of Pakistan, it has to be led by a deeper bench than just Zulfi and Dr. Gil. They need to start recruiting people, elevating those that helped the letter writing campaigns to congress.

All efforts don’t need to be synchronized, it needs a grand strategy blessing from IK, to give it that blessing that will end potential infighting or people losing focus and breaking the momentum. If one mid level leader falls, there need to be junior people that can take the place and move up the ranks.

What really pissed me off is the role MBS played in all this. IK supported him when he was down and out during khashoggi episode, played vital role in being a bridge between Saudi and Iran, took him as his younger brother but this b@stard ditched IK, because he felt threatened by IK international standing. Same with the little mimime in UAE. MBS applied all sort of pressure domestically to get that amendment passed, knowing fully well that it was against IK. PTI needs to realise this and preempt any MBS lead influence within new Trump administration which is anti-IK.

Also, people are making a lot about Jared kushner, I am getting impression he is not as influential as he used to be. Not sure if all is hunky dory between Trump and his son in law. Has kept low profile and it was very interesting to note that during the family pic of Trump clan, he was relegated right at the corner. Just an observation.

 

[Taimoor]

One more scenario that is very likely to play out, Putin having a word with Trump about IK, as to how he was ditched by his generals when he visited Moscow, and then these GHQ rats supplied Ukraine arms and ammunition to be used against Russia, fuelling the conflict. Likelihood of Trump and Putin ganging up on these 22nd graders in GHQ, I would say probability is very high.

I wish you were right, however I think you may be overestimating Pakistani significance here, we are way way down on the Trump admin to do list

Seems like they are interested in re-engaging on Afghanistan. That is impossible with Asim Muneer regime in GHQ. Afghan Taliban hate him with passion. Its just not him, whole lot has to go.

Hopefully IK has learned a lot in these few years of turmoil, and will try to organize through the means that don’t have competing interests. MBS can be brought around AFTER PTI gets its own house in order and he a unified plan using the diaspora, Russia, Zalmay, and the Afghans.

Trump has cycled through Jared’s usefulness in his first term and can now do things more directly.

IK should ditch MBS and focus on Turkey, Iran, Malaysia and Indonesia block, which he was trying. Snakes cant be trusted anymore.

I dont think Jared usefulness or lack of is the issue, I have feeling Trump felt being let down by his son in law when chips were down. PTI already have access to Trump inner circle through diaspora, its better if Jared is relegated down the packing order so these rats in GHQ via MBS cant do much.

 

[Olympus81]

My opinion would be the Pakistani diaspora organize itself and come up with a plan that provides a lucrative environment for American investors. It does not have to go to the length of providing them with interests in strategic assets, but an investment vehicle where Americans can easily invest and Pakistan provides some guarantees to safeguard those investments. On a bilateral level, many countries have that arrangement.

With that investment vehicle in place the Pakistani diaspora can nudge the Americans to whip the duffers. Going by history it will take a couple minutes for them to be dislodged.

This level of thought process is way above the duffers IQ level. They can only come up with a hodge podge SIFC which even the PDMers are not taking seriously.

Agreed
MBS is pure filth.

Some are arguing that they are doing allot behind the scenes to undermine the zionist cabal and that they can't give too much away bla bla bla but frankly 100,000s of dead gazans demand an upfront & confrontational approach...its simply not good enough.

That is not to say stuff isn't going on though for example no longer trading oil in USD is soon going to reach fruition buy buy petrodollar ???

Bit out of scope, but I am sure that IK was removed and this cabal of generals-Shareefs-Zardaris were brought in to facilitate the Gaza genocide. If IK was in power, this wouldn't have gone this far.

On the issue of Jared

Donald Trump's top team: Who is in - and who could be in?

Following his win over Kamala Harris, Donald Trump will now set to work on assembling the administration for his second term in the White House.

news.sky.com

Mr Trump's daughter and son-in-law, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, were among his senior advisors during his first term. But will the businessman once again keep any family members close when he's in the Oval Office?

In June 2023, Mr Trump said he didn't want his children to serve in a second administration, saying it was "too painful for the family".

Nevertheless, while Ms Trump and Mr Kushner have stayed away from politics since, two of Mr Trump's other sons - Don. Jr and Eric - have played prominent roles on the campaign trail.

Eric's wife, Lara Trump, already has a significant role in US politics, as she serves as co-chair of the Republican Party.



I guess these GHQ rats were firing chalay howay kartoos.

The response to Gaza genocide would have been different. This is why the generals are worse than Netanyahu. Traitors to the ummah

 

[Sal12]

Despite the awful situation, I still have very high hopes for Pakistan. But only if the generals can be brought under control. Like the saying goes: who will bell the cat?

No. These generals need to be punished the way they have terrorised and colonised the 250 million humans.

No. These generals need to be punished the way they have terrorised and colonised the 250 million humans.

Also not to fight the sharifs and zardari clan who have terrorised the public through their personal police forces…

Pakistan doesn’t have the bandwidth to go too many steps at once. Besides, down the line Pakistan needs the GCC as a market for its products and its workers.
