PTI's Tsunami March on 14th August [Mega Thread]

[carbon11]

Its the opposite actually.Most of the crowd is with Imran.I was there three fours hours ago.It was huge and people were still pouring in.

They have completely shut down Islamabad.So the people that are now coming from Punjab and KPK are left stranded on the roads.If the roads open up which they should by tomorrow, this crowd will increase drastically.

Plus this crowd that you now see has people from Isb too belonging to every class.People here in Islamabad are mostly PTI supporters so they also went out in huge numbers today.

Hope this clears it up.

what about army in red zone what will they do?

will they take the side of imran khan or protect the nooras which may entail attacking the marchers which will be an unforgivable act if they shoot and attack civilians.

 

[saadibaba]

Whatever happens here, both PTI and PML-N will come out damaged. Long term, good for PPP and Bilawal. Yaay!

 

[Bewal Express]

I am loving this-finally we may have people in power who love Pakistan. The crooked PPP and the Nooras have raped the country with not a care in the world and built fortunes and family businesses when 180m live as slaves.

Imran Khan: Afridi if you don't join PTI then you can't live in pashtoon

Imran Khan said this last night.

So Imran Khan has bought ethinics into this

 

[speed]

Regardless of politics you must be a halwakhoor, soodkhaur etc to support nawaz shariff, Nawaz shariff suporters that I know, generally have pot bellies or can't see beyond ethnicity and other crap like that.

 

[s28]

Smart move. Now any blood shed that happens will be between the army and PTI with no police to blame.

can you decide what you want to happen ?

you want bloodshed ?

you want to grandstand and cry crocodile tears at bloodshed ?

you want those who want to clean the system to fail and the status quo corrupt kleptocrats to benefit ?

Video? Proof? Source?

I bet it was a light-hearted comment that was stirred and made into a drama by the OP.

I'm not deciding just commenting dude, chill out. I don't want any bloodshed to happen but if it does it will be on IK's hands. Police is considered personal servants of Shareefs so it would become an even bigger mess if police and crowds collide. It's better if Army handles any miscreants.

The quote referred to in the opening post is true, one hundred percent! I saw it live yesterday evening. Now it may come down to interpretations, but in my honest view it was pretty a needless and nonsense comment regardless of the nature of the it, even though I don't mean to say that he threatened him in the literal sense or anything.

I wouldn't expect Shahid Afridi to show up on Twitter for a few days, even though I don't quite know whether he has tweeted anything after it or not.

Imran Khan meant like in the community of Pashtoon people I would think.

WASHINGTON: The United States has urged all sides in Pakistan to resolve their differences through peaceful dialogue in a way that strengthens democracy in the country.

“We believe that all parties should work together to resolve their difference through peaceful dialogue in a way that strengthens Pakistan’s democracy,” Deputy Spokesperson at the State Department Marie Harf said.
She was asked about the situation arising from Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf and Pakistan Awami Tehreek marches on Islamabad. The spokesperson also called on all sides to avoid violence.
“We are carefully monitoring and urge all sides to refrain from violence, exercise restraint and respect the rule of law,” Harf added.

Pakistan doesnt have much of a reputation in global politics to begin with so this is atleast one aspect I couldnt care a great deal about.

 

[Fallen King]

DONT LIE..!!! He never said this.

He did say it. During that time, he was talking nonsense in the whole presentation which has shaken several its supporters. Now Imran Khan seems to be in under control. Credit goes to Qadri i guess, Allahu Alim.

 

[s28]

Best thing for democracy in Pakistan will be for the forces of Clean Democracy to take power and destroy the old family politics of the Kleptocrats. Should be added to Constitution that no more of the corrupt allowed in power again. Pretty sure that should be part of constitution anyway but probably been ignored because it suited the vested interests at the time.

 

[Square Drive]

Can someone summarize in 3-4 sentences what's happened so far in the march?

Any link?? I dont think he said so. Otherwisr there would be alot of noise on media.

 

[saadibaba]

I wonder if both sides will now accept the announcement of mid-term elections a year down the road with caretakers taking control six weeks before the elections. Let NS keep his job for another year till Zarb-e-Azb is over so he don't feel he got ousted immediately and IK and PTI also get their main demand but only a little but down the road. Maybe even Nisar as PM till mid-terms with noon staying in power till mid-terms. I'm sure some kind of formula like this one is being presented or will be presented to NS and IK soon by the military or their intermediaries.

I think we need to give credit to the govt. when it's due by allowing protestors to enter without any resistance to avoid bloodshed. If they would have started doing lathi charge and shelling than it would have been a huge disaster with the blame mostly going to the govt. side.


This is equivalent to a guy holding a gun to his head and asking to enter the red zone or storm the PM house otherwise he treatens to pull the trigger. Like that lone crazed gunman an year ago who entered the red zone with his wife and kids and threatened to kill them if his demands are not met. If you allow him to enter you are called a loser whose authority has been taken away so you no longer deserve to rule, if you don't and he blows his brains out, you are called a murderer. There is no easy way out when leaders put women and children in the way to put pressure on the govt. for their own selfish goals. It's sad really that they had to stoop to this desperate and pathetic level. Would have expected that from TUQ but a little surprised by IK.

There really wont be much repurcussions unless there is bloodshed after which some countries may recall ambassadors. But thats a loong shot.

Honestly international repurcussions are the last thing to be worried about. If thats the only reason might as well support the marchers.

My personal take is that Nooras brought it upon themselves. NS has a history of taking decisions which end up hurting himself (apnay paaon pe kuhlaari maarna to use an Urdu term.) For more than a year IK has been trying to use legal channels be it SC or election tribunals but the Nooras used delaying tactics by getting stay orders and whatnot. And he had been very clear at the start that once all legal options were exhausted he will come to the streets. So its not like there wasn't any indications

I dont agree with whats happening and its ugly to see such a thing happening in your country when you are abroad or otherwsie but also the point comes where you have to ask yourself whether you are a country of weak sheep which will accept whatever is handed to it as its government.

Of that there is no doubt that there was electoral rigging. 7 constituencies have been after a lot of legal wrangling and costs and in all of them, massive electoral fraud was found. There were over 70,000 fake votes in each constituency in some cases.

So why as the awaam should we accept a government which was not fairly elected? This is as much of a dictatorship. So why have a dictatorship masquerading as civilian government. Also if you start talking about their performace, then you can go for pages criticizing every aspect.


In addition, as far as TUQ is concerned, this is why TUQ does not get my sympathy or whatsoever. He never exhausted or even tried legal and constitutional avenues so he has no right in my opinion to have any say.

 

[KarachiKing]

You would HAVE HAD them had you let the democratic system take root.

But no, aap logon ki samajh ki baat nahi hay. Jao apna "revolution" enjoy karo.

My only issue is that this is not a democratically elected government with tens of thousands of unverified votes in each constituency so it should not be addressed as such.

PTI could have handled the situation with more sanity and sense but their poor decisions should not be an excuse for this govt.

Having said that even in a fair election PML-N would have likely won but the opposition would have much more seats atleast to actually counter. Right now PML-N can get anything passed due to their huge seats which is not right. Reminds of '77 where Bhutto did the same things

 

[Fallen King]

+1. Very correct. PML-N have been lying about this whole matter for an year now. They keep saying that they dont have the authority to open those constituencies and yet now they are ready to open more constituencies than what IK asked for before. And they dont even show any shame in lying so much. They probably think most people of Pakistan are stupid and will just continue to ignore their lying.

The western nations supported Sharif, he was their preferred puppet after Zardari. Both parties are in their pocket.

Imran Khan is the only independent political leader who has the nations short and long term interests in mind. He could be sat in London living a good life with a family but chose to sacrifice his life for his nation. If I was in his shoes I wouldn't bother trying to save millions of clueless people who happily sit back and criminals in charge. Sharif promised all sorts including stopping drone strikes but is letting his fellow countrymen being murdered by outside forces.

Imran Khan is a human, he can make mistakes but is the only real hope for a bright Pakistan. Amazing scenes, much of Pakistan has woken up.

A weakened Sharif, which he is whether these protests go further or not , will mean more of an involvement for the ISI who Nawaz has sidelined in Pakistan's foreign policy with Nawaz basically only looking after domestic troubles

Isn't PTI supposed to be different? If so, why do you guys constantly defend yourself through comparisons with PML-N and PPP? Is being a bit better than the old parties the sum of your political ambitions and/or expectations?

PTI is different.

I was responding to his silly comment.

The protest is similar to Tahrir square that is not to say the end result will be similar or even identical. I am hopeful that the military will not take over. Hopefully somehow a caretaker government will do so.

Saad Rafique was saying that their workers might come out to support N-League. Lol what kind of government ask their supporters to do that. This is faceplam worthy.

I am sure the Noora lackeys are worried about their future earning potential as no government means no bribes.

Speaking of which Najam Sethi gone very quiet on Twitter. Too busy arranging flight out of country ?

What kind of leader doesn't even come out and release a statement to the nation after so much is happening in the capital? I find it strange that there has been no response.

Many are uncomfortable the way country is going through uncertain times and it would be huge waste of time if nothing comes out of it but i don't believe there were too many options for Imran (or any other honest politician for that matter) to bring a real change. This political mafia has proven again and again that they only care about their own interests and the little infrastructure development they make is usually to strengthen their hold on power than anything else.

Agreed. Nawaz Sharif cannot hide behind his silence. His silence makes him look spineless
