POT decade
)
To those who say he was owned, couldnt answer questions? etc
Which questions could he not answer?
and PTI haters are out proving NS is honest....lolzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Nawaz Sharif is honest.
Lol do you even re-read what you type?
Even Nawaz Sharif doesn't think Nawaz Sharif is honest
Please don't take my comment out of context. I have always maintained that Nawaz is a crook, but he is honest as far as his views on Kargil War are concerned. It was a war that we instigated, and we fully deserved the subsequent humiliation.
You can refer to April 2016 when the Panama Leaks surfaced, and you can see that I was clear in my view that we don't need Supreme Court's verdict to know that Nawaz Sharif is corrupt.

I do not support Nawaz Sharif, but I would support anyone who stand up to the bullying of the military establishment. An institution that has done more harm to the country than any corrupt civilian government. Nawaz himself has a deep-rooted history of licking military boots, and he did not listen to Benazir when she warned him that the military will be his downfall one day.
Fast forward to 2018, and today Imran is the one who doesn't realize that the same military will derail his government when push comes to shove. PTI is backed by the military now and I cannot support it anymore.
As far as Imran's interview is concerned, he was asked straight-forward questions about PTI's failure to meet its objectives, and he failed to answer. When PTI won in KP in 2013, they stated that they will create x number of jobs and build a hospital as well as a university. They have failed on all fronts, and Imran's defense was that people in KP do not give second chances and his party is still the most popular one in the province.
That is a ridiculous answer and he managed to embarrass himself in international media. It wasn't a long-winded answer, and he wasn't handicapped by the shortage of time - it was nothing but mumbo jumbo, and an attempt to divert the topic.
PTI has been relatively better than ANP, but they have still failed to meet their objectives. The two biggest examples are the metro bus disaster and their failed health sector reforms. To elaborate on the latter, when PTI came into power, they decided that they would abolish pension system.
However, the doctors and other workers protested against this proposal, and they decided to take the matter to courts. In the last couple of years, they have decided to paper over the cracks (and their failures) by spending some money on aesthetics by painting the walls and constructing new labs, just so that they can post pictures on their social media pages and prove that they done great work.
The truth is that in every sector, they have failed to meet the majority of their objectives, and that is why Imran Khan is doing "aye baye shaye" and refusing to answer straight-forward questions with straight-forward answers.
He was clearly rattled because he wasn't expecting these direct queries. He is used to media-friendly interviews with ARY and Bol, who are not willing to ask him tough questions.
Furthermore, he is both right and wrong about the ideology of our people in KP. We have never voted for the same party twice, but that is because no party managed to win the loyalties of the people of the province the way PTI has, which has been by far their biggest accomplishment.
Much like PPP in interior Sindh and PML-N in Punjab, PTI has become a cult in KP. People will vote for them regardless of their performance. There was a "loyalty void" in KP and PTI managed to fill that void. They have been successful in selling their manifesto to the people of KP because their loyalties were up for grabs, and at a personal level, Imran has also been successful in selling his wannabe Pashtun image to the people of the province.
Imran Khan's defense for PTI's failures, i.e. that his party is still the most popular party in KP, is no different to Nawaz claiming that PML-N has done wonders in Punjab which is why the people are still loyal to PML-N. PTI is pretty much to KP now what PML-N is to Punjab. PTI will not win the elections, but they are 100% guaranteed to win again in KP.
Imran is a good man with good intentions. He gave people hope and optimism, but his desperation to become the PM has finished him. He has walked back on his manifesto and ideologies, and PTI today is a pale shadow of what it was 5 years ago.
He is willing to welcome anyone in his party if it will help him get in power, and as a democratic leader, he is happy to side with the military and use them as a springboard to the PM-ship. He is a shadow of a leader he once was, and the whole world can see it except for his cult followers.
People defend his decision to welcome crooks and lotas under the guise of "electables", because you cannot win elections without them and since Imran is honest himself, he will ensure that everyone works for the betterment of the country. What people don't realize is that politics is not a top-down process. Nothing will change as long as Imran surrounds himself with crooks.
I actually fear for him now. After he fails once again to become the PM, I wonder if he will have enough sanity left to continue to lead his party after the coming elections.
