It’s mind-boggling to learn the details of the so-called peace talks in Islamabad — they were a trap all along, set by China through Asim Munir for the Americans, and the Americans walked right into it!

DTF!

اگر امریکہ کو منیرا مستری جیسا چاچا بھی پھدو لگاسکتا ہے تو پھر، ایران اور چین والے تو اس سے لاکھوں درجے زیادہ عقل مند ہیں بھائی!

نہیں سمجھ آئی؟
ٹھہرو، سمجھاتا ہوں کچھ دیر میں!

سیاست اور جنگ، دونوں ٹائمنگ کا کھیل ہے۔ پچھلے 40 دن وہ ٹائم تھا جس کا فائدہ اٹھا کر پی ٹی آئی اپنے سیاسی مطالبات، جیسے عمران خان اور سیاسی قیدیوں کی رہائی کی ڈیمانڈ منوا سکتی تھی۔ مگر افسوس کہ پی ٹی آئی قیادت ناصرف بزدل نکلی، بلکہ نالائق بھی!

The Chinese are playing a deep game. They were behind the Islamabad talks all along, and they are also the reason Iran refused to bow to the narcissistic US position.

I have a serious threat to my life from the Pakistani deep state and certain political actors, which do not like looking in the mirror I present to them. Arshad Shareef Shaheed was assassinated for the same reason. The police in the UK is actively protecting me, and require me not to attend pre-planned public gatherings or political commitments due to the serious nature of the threat to my life.

I was forced to leave Pakistan, for the safety of my life and more importantly to speak the truth, which is not possible in Pakistan. There is no freedom of speech in Pakistan and no matter what or who you are, living in Pakistan, you must make a compromise for your own or your loved one’s safety.

Definitely not. My mother is being held hostage in Pakistan after being abducted by the intelligence agencies during an effort to legally leave Pakistan. Her safety is a constant concern for me, but I am fighting against this kind of fascism not only for my mother, but for the mothers of all Pakistanis.

I took voluntary retirement from the Pakistan Army as a Major with full honours, awards and earned benefits including pension in 2017 after 20 years 8 months and 24 days of exemplary military service. For more details, watch my vlog. (mein kon hoon?)

I will Insha’Allah return to a free Pakistan where democracy and freedom reigns supreme instead of fascism and law of the jungle.
