A good reply in an interesting debate deserves post of the week award.
Am sure there are differing views on the subject but this is as good as it gets.

Yet the vigour in which you constantly attack the man who is at least trying to do something is quite perplexing.
Is Imran not contesting elections? Is Imran not holding to account those who choose to operate outside the democratic system?
In fact, what democracy are you talking of? The one with rigged elections? The one Imran is trying to clean up?
You're right, no one man can do that. However, as far as I'm concerned, a vast majority of Pakistani's are traitors to their own nation when their vote is bought for a plate of biryani, or with bradri allegiances, or by those who have enough money, that should the surface be scratched, their life of exploitation and corruption would come to the surface.
The House of "Democracy" you wish to protect by backing the corrupt system is a house built on rotten foundations.
For all his good and bad, Imran is like a bulldozer who will destroy that house of corruption, and will build the country afresh with new foundations. It will not be a perfect country. No country is perfect. It will be a darn site better than the pathetic nation it is now. Pakistan, for all its potential, could have been something great. That's probably the saddest part of it all.
Who knows, maybe if the Army trusts that a decent leader has finally come to power, they won't have to instigate a coup.
