Pakistan not among 5 nations announced to have committed troops for International Stabilisation Force in Gaza

[Areesh]

PTI ke Chu's losing their minds over this news is hilarious to read, I would say collective brain rot but they never had brains to begin with lol

From the posts of pti boys it is getting really hard to understand whether they want Pakistan to send troops or not

oh bhai... itna kuch nahi kaha ma... you 'understood' a lot from my one statement and the video.

The video is mainly about elite whose interests are in looted wealth, which they have accumulated abroad. Therefore, they cannot safeguard Pak's interests.

When did the video or I say anything about Islam, or the rest are traitors, sell out, etc?

Yara, if you are not going to own up to such videos, don't post them.

The line of thinking in the PTI base is that only IK is the guardian of Islam. Anyone who does not support him is an agent of the non-Muslims, ready to throw Pakistan's support for Kashmir and Palestine out the door the moment Amreeka Bahadur shows up on our door.

You know the connotations used by the base. I see people posting that echo-chamber narrative here all the time.

so much for the Cult members here spreading Indian [pygmies] disinformation to polarize the Pakistani society that Pakistan is assisting the Zionist pygmies. Can the mod make a list of all members that continue to derail each thread with their disinformation campaign? Its a slow burning fire one that can light the whole house on fire if not taken care of. One of them roams the Iranian forum and does nothing but acts like a Persian wannabe Pick me like a true Achaemenid. More catholic than the pope
@Watandar I'm talking about you

Get well soon.

I think in between lines, IK was blaming PMLN. They have kept their relations with India under the carpet. Maryam's damad bought million $ machinery from India. It is speculated that BCB approached PCB through PMLN links to send Pak team to play with India. There have been many more examples.

The gist of the video was that politicians whose interests are abroad are easily compromised and can sell any strategic or national interests, including accepting Israel. I didn't believe that could ever happen. However, as we are in its periphery (the best way to avoid a sin is to avoid its proximity) now, so I posted that video as at least he has the foresight for that, while it wasn't even a variable for me.

Just that.!

You are completely wrong. We are not saying that IK is the solution to everything. We are saying that those who stand in support of injustice are the real problem facing our nation. They can see what’s happening in Pakistan. The rightful leader is in prison, and those who were rejected are ruling unjustly. They are so blinded that even the blood of their own people brings them no shame.
Our duty is to speak the truth. If you hide your disease, you are only fooling yourself.

On topic: I guess SS saying that Trump is a peacemaker in Asia while adding that a 2-sate solution is necessary is a good thing. A process, which was ignored by many major power will not last anyway. Even the US is not the anchor, but only Trump is.

Pakistan not among 5 nations announced to have committed troops for International Stabilisation Force in Gaza​

US President Donald Trump on Thursday promised $10 billion and Muslim-majority nations offered funding and troops for Gaza at the inaugural Board of Peace meeting in Washington.

Pakistan, however, was not named among the five nations who have committed troops for the International Stabilisation Force, which will be tasked with securing reconstruction zones and supporting a post-conflict governance arrangement in Gaza.

Trump brought together allies from around the world — many authoritarians, with few Western democrats who traditionally ally with the United States — to hail his peacemaking at the first Board of Peace meeting.


Presiding with a gavel over the meeting in the gleaming Washington building of the former US Institute of Peace, which has been gutted and renamed after the 79-year-old Republican, Trump hailed the “powerful people” who joined his board.

“We will help Gaza. We will straighten it out. We’ll make it successful,” Trump said, holding up a document with pledges before the disco beats of his adopted theme-song “YMCA” came on the speakers.

“We will make it peaceful, and we will do things like that in other spots. Spots will come up, things will happen,” Trump said.

The Board of Peace came together after the Trump administration, teaming up with Qatar and Egypt, negotiated a ceasefire in October to halt two years of devastating Israeli onslaught in Gaza.

The plan’s second phase calls for the disarmament of Hamas.

In a first for an Arab country, Morocco announced it was ready to send police as well as officers to the nascent International Stabilisation Force.

The force’s American commander, Major General Jasper Jeffers, said that Albania, Indonesia, Kazakhstan and Kosovo were also sending troops and announced that an Indonesian officer would serve as his deputy.

Indonesia, the world’s largest Muslim-majority country, earlier said it was ready to send 8,000 troops — nearly half of the 20,000 sought.

Trump hailed Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto, who attended, calling the former military officer accused of human rights abuses in East Timor a “tough cookie.”

Nickolay Mladenov, a veteran Bulgarian diplomat named high representative for Gaza by the United States, also announced the beginning of recruitment for a post-Hamas police force in Gaza and said 2,000 people had applied in the first hours.

Foreign Office spokesperson Tahir Andrabi was also asked about the ISF and Pakistan’s view on it during a weekly briefing in Islamabad today.

In response, he said: “We understand that a decision is awaited on the contours of the mandate of the International Stabilisation Force, and till such time, we’re not in a position to take any decision on this matter.

“We have identified our red lines quite explicitly. The deputy prime minister and the foreign minister has done so here from this platform, and elsewhere. Pakistan can be part of a peacekeeping mandate, but we would not be part of any disarming/ demilitarisation mandates. This discussion at [the Board of Peace meeting in] Washington might take place today. We will update you as and when these developments take place.”

For his part, Trump said during the moot in Washington that he hoped the use of force to disarm Hamas would not be necessary. He said Hamas had promised to disarm and it “looks like they’re going to be doing that, but we’ll have to find out.”

Foreign Minister Gideon Saar, representing Israel at the meeting, demanded disarmament of Hamas and “a fundamental deradicalisation process” in Gaza.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in Israel that Hamas will be disarmed one way or the other. “Very soon, Hamas will face a dilemma - to disarm peacefully or disarmed forcefully,” he said.

In Gaza, Hamas spokesperson Hazem Qassem said any international force must “monitor the ceasefire and prevent the (Israeli) occupation from continuing its aggression”. Disarmament could be discussed, he said, without directly committing to it.

Trump, who has sharply curtailed foreign aid, said the United States would contribute $10bn to the Board of Peace. He also announced that contributing nations had raised $7bn as an initial down payment for Gaza reconstruction.

Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates each promised at least $1bn. White House Press Secretary said more than $6.5bn was pledged, presumably excluding Trump’s offer.

Trump also said FIFA will raise $75 million for soccer-related projects in Gaza and that the United Nations will chip in $2 billion for humanitarian assistance.

“Together we can achieve the dream of bringing lasting harmony to a region tortured by centuries of war, suffering,” said the realtor-turned-president, who has spoken improbably of building tourist resorts in Gaza.

Trump did not explain exactly where the money would go and whether Congress had approved the contribution he announced for the institution, which has drawn criticism for its opaque nature.

Trump will wield veto power over the Board of Peace and can remain its head even after leaving office, while countries that want to stay on permanently rather than enjoy a two-year stint will need to pay $1bn.

Critics say the Board of Peace remains vague, including how it would interact with existing institutions, including the United Nations, to which Trump has drastically cut support.

“It’s a confused mix of ambition and narcissism, unleavened by any effort at intellectual coherence,” said Bruce Jones, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution.

If I was Israel, I would not want Turkish or Pakistani troops on Israeli soil (read: Gaza Strip)

The rightful leader is in prison

That is precisely the falsehood.

IK is just another puppet who was installed by cheating and removed by cheating, just like all the others.

His followers want to concentrate on cheating in only one election that removed him while conveniently forgetting the cheating in the election that also installed him.

 

[Meengla]

The US offered us massive incentives from the 70s to the 90s asking us to stop our pursuit of nuclear weapons. This included billions in economic aid, F16s and waiving the sanctions that were in the works. Did we say yes? No, we did not. We were hit by the Pressler amendments and thrown to the economic grinder. Considered a failed state, and an Islamist pariah, we joined the ranks of Iran, North Korea and Somalia in US foreign policy. Our sovereignty demanded difficult decisions at the time and our leadership took them and we stood behind it. A quarter of a century later, it is reassuring to see that despite the challenges we have faced, we are still holding the line.

Overall a great post but also ponder the bolded part. IIRC, in the 90s, Pakistan was actually placed by America on some 'terrorism watch list', which would be a step to later declare 'terrorism sponsor nation' like North Korea, Iran. Why was so?? Because the same Establishment which controlled Pakistan then and controls now, was defying America. And yet the Imran fanbois have bought the damned propaganda against the Pakistani military totally. Note, Imran's propaganda against the military only started when he was about to lose power. A fact!

It's one thing to plead his case on the basis of his innocence and the charges being trumped up. That does not make him the one and only rightly guided khalifa for Pakistanis. To his base, like BBs and NS's, he is the end all, be all but not all of Pakistan is his base.

Fascism prevails in all Pakistani political parties, with possible exception of Jamaat e Islami, but not to the same level in other parties. There is at least some 'collective wisdom' in other parties unlike in Imran's personal political party called PTI. There are many who left Imran who'd verify Imran's extreme dictatorial tendencies--many who left and many who are still with him though they do privately.

Overgeneralizing like this misses the point.... PTI’s support cuts across regions, ethnicities, classes, religions, sects, genders, and ages. It represents much of the nation. Vilifying it like this misrepresents a country .. So, unless a stance is officially declared by the party or its leader, blaming the whole party for views of some frustrated people is misleading .... projecting fringe opinions as policy is a red herring...


And if the Army denying Imran Khan basic healthcare, costing him his eyesight, doesn't bother you, maybe it's time to rethink who the real cultist is..

Someone's personal dealings cannot become state policy.

The easiest thing for politicians to do is to start innuendo about the other.

If the Sharif's were India's har-dil-azeez, as IK claims, why are we in a state of war with them? Why does the bhai Jaan lean over and get chota bhai to make peace?

Pakistan will make peace with India when we are ready. The same goes with regards to the policy for Palestine.

To your last para, IK's progeny is from the west. Material interests pale in comparison to that.

All I'm highlighting is the hypocrisy and double-standards applied to others except to him. Others are suspect of treason on account of their financial interests abroad but what would one say about IK's blood/progeny being reared by a Zionist family? Do you not see how that comes across?

Be objective. I don't believe IK is a traitor but I grant the same to the Sharifs etc. unless I see something that is clearly undermining Pakistan at the behest of her enemies. You all should do the same so Pakistanis can find middle ground.

denying Imran Khan basic healthcare, costing him his eyesight,

Incorrect. IK has received the correct treatment for his eye condition and it has been effective. He is not blind. His right eye is recovering and his left eye is fine.

Stop acting as the propaganda mouthpiece for this illegitimate dictatorship. You know perfectly well you’re lying..

No sir. It is YOU who is lying here.

IK has not been denied eye care. IK has received the correct treatment for his eye condition and it has been effective. He is not blind. His right eye is recovering and his left eye is fine.

(And I have never supported any dictator.)
