The Nation Lost Time and Opportunities for Political Change by Dr. Mahboob A. Khawaja 

Pakistan represents traces of compelling authoritarian  tyranny, stupidity, political sinisterism of rooted insolence of lost wisdom and hopes for a navigational change. Despite the national elections, pains, horrors and degradation of the nation for change are distinctly visible on the screen.The nation is fraught with loss of time and opportunities for political change and sustainable future-making. The February 8, elections arranged by the Generals and the Judges produced no signs of systematic optimism that the nation will lose more when sadistic egoism and the authoritarian governance of the few have left nothing more to lose. A paradox of unforgivable systematic infested political corruption complemented by the ego of few Generals aligned with higher court judges to a new threshold of emerging disunity, military intervention in public affairs and favorite perversion of evil mongering claiming to serve the 240 million conscientious Pakistanis. Despite the PTI (independent) clear winning majority of the National Assembly seats, the reports spell out the hidden truth of Sharif brothers – the criminally indicted terrorists, thugs and money launderers to form the next government. What a shame – what a disgrace to conscientious new  educated generations of Pakistanis.  One wonders, what was the precarious reason to hold the national elections when the Generals and few Judges wanted the corrupt and morally and politically disgraced Sharfi brothers back to powerhouse? These were the same neo-colonial families of Bhuttos, Sharfis and Zardari produced by the previous Generals who stole 50 years of the national lifetime, wealth and opportunities for change to buy palaces in the UK, France and Spain and discredit the nation, its honor and standing in global affairs.

Do intelligent people learn words of wisdom even from the enemies? General PNK Choudry (former Chief of Staff of the Indian Armed Forces), who fought wars against Pakistan, narrated that if Pakistan had honest and intelligent leaders, they could have averted the 1971 surrender and defeat at Dakka- East Pakistan. I asked him how? He disclosed that ZA Bhutto had asked Mrs. Indira Gandhi (PM India) to help him become the next president of Pakistan; whereas Sheikh Mujib Rehman ( the elected majority leader) was more a Bengali nationalist aspiring to become the next leader of Pakistan. If the Pakistani had transferred the power to Sheikh Rehman, it would have been the right thing to do and he would not have survived more than a few months as all the official machinery was based in Islamabad. Mrs. Gandhi agreed to help Zalfikar Bhutto but the price was defeat and surrender of Pakistan, and Bhutto was a power maniac to become the unelected leader of Pakistan. Altaf Qureshi (“Skoot-e Dacca say Purdha Utha Hey” the Urdu Digest), narrated the historic facts: ‘General Yahya Khan stabbed the body of Pakistan and Bhutto did the same.’ Please see: “British Colonialism and how India and Pakistan Lost Freedom.” 2022. https://www.globalresearch.ca/british-colonialism-how-india-pakistan-lost-freedom/5765810Are we not seeing the same story being repeated again in Pakistan after more than 50 years?

Imran Khan, the PTI elected leader was ousted by the whim of a few generals aligned to the politically cursed Sharif family – is that the mental microscope of the military leaders to rejoin the dead political

entities? Under false and politically orchestrated impulses, Imran Khan has been sentenced to 10 -14 years in jail on multiple bogus legal cases. Vengeful and paranoid Generals wanted to keep Khan and PTI out of power so nobody could question their wrong thinking and deceitful actions against the nation. The few generals under the Chief of the Staff Assem Munir have no sense of time and history as they are playing with the destiny of the Nation for which they have no moral or intellectual capacity, no right or legal mandate to do so. Most dreadful tragedies have infallibly resulted in victimizing the masses. Today, the nation is crippled with catastrophic events of insecurity, mismanagement and socioeconomic and political exploitation.

The Pakistani Generals are not the people of reasoning and open to listening and learning. Bhuttos, Zardari and Sharifs are not the people of honesty and leadership to rebuild the nation for its survival. They cannot realize the imperatives of hopes and expectations of the new generation of educated and morally and intellectually competent people. Future belongs to the new generation of educated people, not to the naive and obsolete Generals. They view “power” and “Pakistan” as their own property. The authoritarian leaders played with its destiny and future without being questioned. The Five military coups were stabbing the living body of Pakistan. They are the wrong people, with wrong thinking and doing the wrong things. Please see “ Pakistan Confronts its future under betrayal of Generals.” 01/24 https://www.uncommonthought.com/mtblog/archives/2024/01/15/pakistan-confronts-its-future-under-betrayal-of-generals.php

Progressive Nations Produce and Enlist Educated People of New Generations to Make the Future

Progressive nations search for new-age educated and intelligent people of new ideas and integrity to build a sustainable future. Ironically, Pakistani neo-colonial systems have kept old and obsolete to run the country. Nations cease to exist when educated people of new generations who could have replaced the old and redundant guards leave the country and never return to build the nation. Young educated generations embark on migrating to Europe or America and never come back.

 Today, the nation is crippled with catastrophic events of insecurity, non-productivity, mismanagement and socioeconomic and political exploitation. The Pakistani ruling elite and the Generals are not open to reason and accountability. They are engaged in systematic subversion of national freedom, security and future-making.They cannot realize the imperatives of hopes and expectations of a new generation of educated and morally and intellectually competent people. Future belongs to the new generation of educated people, not to the naive and obsolete Generals. They view “power” and “Pakistan” as their own property. They are the wrong people, with wrong thinking and doing the wrong things.

Although Imran Khan spoke of moral and intellectual values and nation-building, he did very little to support that agenda. Khan could have arranged evidence-based legal prosecution of Sharif brothers, Zardari and others  for corruption, killings and stolen wealth but failed to do so. He did not kill anybody nor robbed any banks and political governance was infested with corrupt figures of the past. They never imagined–how the present and future generations will identify them? Please see by this author:“Pakistan Imperatives of Political Change for a Progressive Nation”2019; “Pakistan where Politics and Corruption are the Same” 2014; “Pakistan in Search of Freedom and Security”, Uncommon Thought Journal and Global Research: 10/20/22, and “Pakistan, Planned Political Chaos: Imran Khan a Victim of Hope for the Future”, Global Research: 11/06/2022; “Pakistan Striving for Its Soul.” 8/23 https://www.transcend.org/tms/2023/08/pakistan-striving-for-its-soul/

Tyranny of the Few Darkens the Future of Nation

The few Generals and Sharif brothers are egomaniacs with an overwhelming pathological urge for political power to distort and reject the will and aspirations of the people of Pakistan striving for political change. Tyranny is always powerless and transitory.  Imran Khan  and some 20k of his party  supporters have been imprisoned under false pretext of political vengeance and to pave the way for another opening to the crime riddled Sharif family. What is the solution to the morally and intellectually sickening political culture of Pakistani politics?  A reconstruction and overhaul of the law and justice system and non-intervention by the Generals into politics and transfer of political power to the majority elected leader and party.  It is a long way to build a working democracy in Pakistan. If not, could the few Generals and top Judges be tried for violations of the Constitution, human rights, arrests of innocent masses and fake cases against Khan at the ICJ and ICC, the Hague? The possibility is there for accountability.

Pakistan needs an urgent navigational change but a few Generals and judges are part of the problem. Would they ever realize and learn having wrong thinking, wrong priorities and wrong actions? The current state of Pakistani affairs reflects a complete societal breakdown and march towards self-annihilation. Despite hollow claims of the Generals, no moral and ethical behavior is seen in the sudden and inexplicable plunge to human wickedness highlighting the affairs of the besieged nation. They would claim democracy at work when the majority winning party (PTI) is being blocked to form the next legitimate government and masses are outraged and oppose the Generals and Judges lacking respect, professional integrity and impartiality to serve the nation.

Pakistan: The Generals and Judges Who Betrayed the Nation By Mahboob A. Khawaja, PhD.

Pakistan: The Generals and Judges Who Betrayed the Nation – By Mahboob A. Khawaja, PhD.

Are the Generals waiting for another mishap of formative history? Please see“British Colonialism and How India and Pakistan Lost Freedom.” Global Research and Uncommon Thought Journal: 1/01/22. In “Pakistan Leaders or Criminals”you will discover how Bhuttos, Zardari, Sharifs and General Musharaf – these thugs stole billions and billions to own properties in UK, France and Spain.They never imagined–how the present and future generations remember them? Please see by this author:“Pakistan Imperatives of Political Change for a Progressive Nation”2019;Pakistan in Search of Freedom and Security”, Uncommon Thought Journal and Global Research: 10/20/22, and “Pakistan, Planned Political Chaos: Imran Khan a Victim of Hope for the Future”, Global Research: 11/06/2022; “Pakistan in Search of Its Soul.” Uncommon Thought Journal: 8/06/23

Imran Khan is a person of new ideas and ideals and the Pakistani masses view him with great deal of optimism and integrity and hope for political change, free of corruption paving opportunities for sustainable development and a better future. The neo-colonial agents feard him to imprison Khan under bogus accusations of corruption. please view “Pakistan Confronts its Future under Betrayal of Generals”,:Uncommon Thought Journal:1/15/2024

Tyranny is always powerless and transitory. Military dictates and absurd judgments lead to distorted propositions of conflicts and instability. Often when political conspirators cannot solve one set of problems, they come up with other naïve ideas to create more critical problems to distract the masses. What is the solution to the morally and intellectually sickening political culture of Pakistani politics? It needs a navigational change, new public institutions free of neo-colonial implanted culture, a New Constitution and new educated and honest leadership. History will judge the imposters by their actions, not by their claims to serve the nation. In summary, We the Conscientious People of Pakistan invite Urgent attention for a navigational change, equal participation of all the political parties to a fair, representative and just national elections, and reconstruction of a new political system of governance. Otherwise, February 8, national elections are a dress rehearsal for continued military rule and travesty of justice imposed upon the masses of Pakistan by the few against all:

1. Pakistan, its people and its future are NOT the sole property of a few Generals or the current Chief Justice.

2.The General’s insane ambitions and actions are the outcome of the briefing and dictate by the US political interests.

3. If bogus elections are held to bring the indicted criminals and money launderers – Nawaz Sharif family back to power as appears to be the case, there will be massive socioeconomic and political chaos, disruptions, street battles and bloodbath between the armed forces and common people.

4. The Generals and the judges do not plan economy, agriculture, education, moral and intellectual hubs, or build nations but people of knowledge, thinkers,visionary, specialists and young people of moral and intellectual integrity contribute for such a vital national agenda.

5. Pakistan’s socio-economic, political and strategic needs are not the task and mandates of the judges and the Generals – they are a misfit for such roleplays..

6. The few Generals and Judges are misusing the time and opportunities for individualistic agendas and creating appalling socio-economic and political misfortunes for the nation. We, the People of reason, remind them that they are not above the law and justice and could face public trial and even the firing squads for their treachery and dishonesty to the future of the nation.

7. There must be a free and fair national election inclusive of the PTI and its leadership. Pakistanis believe if a free election is held, Imran Khan will be the next legitimate elected leader of the country.

Pakistan: The Generals Plan Fraudulent National Elections- by Mahboob A.Khwaja. Ph.D.

No Comments

Pakistan once again faces a critical situation of LIFE and Death for its survival.

General Asim Munir and Five of his colleagues, vengeful, paranoid and pursuing wrong thinking and wrong action to hold fraudulent national elections by depriving the PTI and its leadership. The Generals lack understanding of time and history and repeating the 1971 story of loss of East Pakistan.

1. The General’s insane ambitions and actions are outcome of the briefing and dictates by the US interest.

2. If bogus elections are held to bring the indicted criminals Nawaz Sharif family back to power as appears to be the case, there will be socioeconomic and political chaos, disruptions, street battles and bloodbath between the armed forces and common people.

3. America-India Strategic Alliance is in-waiting for such political chaos to emerge and to move-in under the guise of protecting the Pak nuclear arsenals and then demand surrender – the END OF PAKISTAN NATIONAL FREEDOM.

4. As a non-partisan, non-political scholar and a fellow Pakistani, I love my country and people and its present and future is of utmost importance to me. I ask you to PLEASE RISE UP to the challenge and help to save Pakistan from a catastrophic disaster in the making by few selfish and terribly naive and unprofessional Generals currently running the show and so called system of law and justice.

5. You have served the nation honorably and at this critical moment of our life, you can organize yourselves and make your VOICES heard to stop the stupid Generals from acts of insanity against the very people they claim to serve.

Pakistan Confronts its Future under Betrayal of Generals

  • Written by Mahboob A. Khawaja, PhD

Nations cease to exist when educated people of new generations who could have replaced the old and redundant guards leave the country and never return to build the nation. Young educated generations embark on migrating to Europe or America and never come back. It is an irresistible necessity of time and truth that those in power must be warned and listen to voices of reason and political necessity for change and truth for restraint and civilized behavior.

When would we learn about our wrong thinking, wrong priorities and wrong actions? This current state of Pakistani affairs reflects a complete societal breakdown and march towards self-annihilation. Despite hollow claims of the generals, no moral and ethical behavior is seen in the sudden and inexplicable plunge to human wickedness highlighting the affairs of the besieged nation.

Most dreadful tragedies have infallibly resulted in victimizing the masses. Today, the nation is crippled with catastrophic events of insecurity, mismanagement and socioeconomic and political exploitation. The Pakistani ruling elite and the Generals are not open to reason and accountability. They are engaged in systematic subversion of national freedom, security and future-making.They cannot realize the imperatives of hopes and expectations of a new generation of educated and morally and intellectually competent people. Future belongs to the new generation of educated people, not to the naive and obsolete Generals. They view “power” and “Pakistan” as their own property. The authoritarian leaders played with its destiny and future without being questioned. They are the wrong people, with wrong thinking and doing the wrong things. If there was any fair system of accountability, some of the Generals and accomplice politicians could well have faced firing squads for their crimes against the nation. Are the Generals waiting for another mishap of formative history? Please see “British Colonialism and How India and Pakistan Lost Freedom.” Global Research and Uncommon Thought Journal: 1/01/22. In “Pakistan Leaders or Criminals”, you will discover how Bhuttos, Zardari, Sharifs and General Musharaf – these thugs stole billions and billions to own properties in the UK, France and Spain. The Thinking People of the New Generation view them as the most corrupt, crime riddled monsters who will never come to terms with reason and honesty to reflect on their own wrongdoings. They never imagined–how the present and future generations will remember them? Please see by this author:“Pakistan Imperatives of Political Change for a Progressive Nation”2019; “Pakistan where Politics and Corruption are the Same” 2014; “Pakistan in Search of Freedom and Security”, Uncommon Thought Journal and Global Research: 10/20/22, and “Pakistan, Planned Political Chaos: Imran Khan a Victim of Hope for the Future”, Global Research: 11/06/2022; “Pakistan in Search of Its Soul.” Uncommon Thought Journal: 8/06/23

The Generals and Sharif family wanted to dehumanize Khan and his PTI organization and for the last two years, they bent on destroying his political integrity under false charges of corruption. Pakistan’s failure to hold any credibility of the law and justice system is widely observed by all concerned. Although Imran Khan spoke of moral and intellectual values and nation-building, he did very little to support that agenda. He did not kill anybody nor robbed any banks and was keen to have legal accountability for the stolen wealth and killings by Sharif brothers, Bhuttos, and Zardari and others. But political governance was infested with corrupt figures of the past. Tyranny is always powerless and transitory. Often when sadistic politicians cannot solve one set of problems, they come up with other naïve ideas to create more critical problems to distract the masses. Khan has been imprisoned under false pretext of political vengeance and to pave the way for another opening for the crime riddled Sharif family. What is the solution to the morally and intellectually sickening political culture of Pakistani politics? It is hard to imagine that General Assam Munir and his few sadistic partners including the Sahrfi family would create an environment of free and fair elections. The law and justice system has already collapsed and Pakistan could fall into another conspiracy for its disintegration. They would hold fake elections and do their best to see the return of the Sharif family corresponding to the geopolitical agenda of the inept generals. If the Generals and Sharif have any sense of history, reasoning, and accountability, they should not be part of any conspiracy against the people of Pakistan.They could well face the same fate as all conspiratorial and traitors should do – court martial and firing squads to clean the floating scum.

History will judge the imposters by their actions, not by their claims to serve the nation.

What Ails Pakistan? Way Forward by Brig,Gen(Retd)Asif Haroon Raja

After the Partition in 1947, mishandling and mismanagement of Evacuee Properties laid the foundation of corruption in Pakistan. It created a class of upstarts who prospered during the decade of development of Ayub Khan in the 1960s.

Devaluation and nationalization by Bhutto pulverised the economy and industry. Jayala culture and promotion of secularism indisciplined the society and promoted liberalism.

Fighting someone else’s wars for thirty years militarized the society and infected it with extremism, intolerance, ethnicity, sectarianism, religious bigotry and divides, and the cultures of Kalashnikov, drugs and other social vices. The Junejo era gave birth to bank loans, Mafias and parallel economy.

The era of the 1990s saw Pakistan getting engulfed in the aftereffects of the Afghan war which nosedived our morals and values, and craze for making big money overnight intensified.

The political class, bureaucrats, the military and big tycoons got involved in power politics and political engineering to protect their selfish interests.

VIP culture and cultures of commissions, kickbacks, graft intensified. Merit was discarded and was replaced by nepotism and loyalists. Pakistan’s economic hub Karachi was mercilessly plundered by MQM and PPP.

The elite class controlling the wealth, and with all the levers of power, got detached from the commoners. They neither made any effort to integrate the nation, or to reform the state institutions. The accountability was in name only. The IPP deal was the worst which is one of the key factors of our debt burden. Agriculture being the backbone was neglected.

These factors bolstered black economy and strengthened the Mafias.

The post 9/11 era saw Pakistanis getting bloodied and traumatized in the US imposed war on terror. Enlightened moderation was promoted to show the soft face of Pakistan, but it heightened the secular-Islamic divide and promoted obscenity and immorality. The 20-year war destabilised the country, divided the nation, and impoverished the economy.

The war didn’t make any difference to the rich class which continued to live an ostentatious and pompous life, and detested simplicity. To upkeep their high lifestyle, they got more loans which were pilfered.

The 3rd political experiment made by the military establishment to improve economics and to maintain its control over power politics proved devastating for the country. Pakistan is still suffering from its consequences and is still clueless how to get out of the self-created mess.

With so many internal shortcomings and vulnerabilities, it was easy for our adversaries to keep sprinkling oil on our weak areas and keeping Pakistan perpetually politically destabilised, socially divided and economically weak and dependent.

The tool of media was used to mind clone the educated urbanites. The hirelings and the misled added to Pakistan’s troubles. They picked up arms against the State and their Army and unwittingly promoted the dangerous agenda of enemies of Pakistan.

It is because of the misconduct of the civil and military leaders and the bureaucrats that Pakistan today finds itself gripped in multiple crises which include political, economic, constitutional, judicial and moral crises. Political polarization has scaled new heights of hatred.
