Pakistan heading towards a civil war?
2022-11-28
[OneIndia] While the top politicianship and army are busy in power struggle, a tanking economy, backbreaking inflation, massive unemployment and sporadic violence have further added to the woes of the common man who continues to seek comfort in Islamic mores.
Land Of The Pureâ„¢. Take succor in Islam, suckers.
What will happen in Pakistain? Is it heading towards a civil war? Will it suffer another breakup the way it had during 1971? Certain unprecedented events that have shaken the Islamic state in the preceding few months have given rise to all sorts of speculations.

After long, Pakistain has seen rise of a popular leader of stature of Imran Khan

#9  China is reportedly pressing Pakistain to permit Chinese security agencies to provide security for their personnel which, Islamabad is resisting as it meant boots on the ground for Chinese forces.

Wouldn't that be fun?

#8  It's fun to get Paki telemarketers and scam artists on the phone and tease them. They get very angry and obscene very quickly when they realize you're putting them on.

#3  In Pakistan there is a fine line between civil war and Monday morning that I have never been able to discern.

#2  Slavising, even the Paki civil bureaucracy earns a hefty monthly cut from the kidnapping, birthing and raising of children for beggary and prostitution. These are managed by the criminal underworld which is headed by the likes of Dawood Ibrahim etc. Plus, there's two trafficking corridors through the NWFP, Tajikistan into Europe and one into Saudi Arabia for children that may be attractive. The lowest of low criminals, Pakis. A goddamn lunacy letting a Paki moslem into any of your countries.

#1  Note: No mention is made of Pak military's historic involvement in drug trafficking.
For recent developments: ‘Pakistan Army, Taliban linked to narcotics trafficking, terrorism’; NATO report Sep 28, 2022: The Pakistan Army and the Taliban are connected to the narcotics trade in a ‘unholy’ way, according to a NATO investigation. The Defence Education Enhancement Program’s paper focuses on the expansion of the drug trade from both Kabul and Islamabad, [and] the relationship between drug trafficking and terrorism. The narco-trade between Pakistan and Afghanistan was facilitated by the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), the military intelligence organisation of Pakistan, according to a 2022 study titled ‘Narco-Insecurity, Inc’. According to research, the ISI carried out covert operations in collaboration with jihadist organisations that shared its goals. ...all largely relied on drug trafficking to finance terrorist activities, according to South Asia Press.
