2024 Elections

2024 Elections
election results in 2024..PTI in 2018 just a pukhtun based party literally surged in Punjab and karachi to emerge as the largest party with 114 seats in the national assembly...Though imran did not win a majority in 2018,he even failed in 2024 because of more cooperation between the PMLn and PPP and the collapse of the majlis amal and the breakup of imrans coalition whom he derogatorily alleged were trying to blackmail him alongwith losing the backing of the army and the resurgence of the mqm-P and JUIf...Imran a very biased animosity proned person...on becoming captain he had sacked prominent cricketers Zaheer Abbas and Abdul Qadir..he did not like Abdul Qadir's praying in the dressing room...there is a large difference in the 2018 upright imran the cricket captain and the dubious looter/crazy politician imran in 2024 and the running after money, embezzler of party funds/funds from dubious contractors..looting state gifts and using a foreign office cipher for propaganda the world over..his mean and nasty influencers also did not help his cause...the PTI used to lap up everything the PTI influencers put out...Imran does not accept reality...!

July23-2026--while the USA has concentrated on military targets  Iran has gone for all sorts of targets...Iran's oil infrastructure could also probably be easily targeted...in an all out war both sides could end up with nothing left and than limp around rebuilding...with no sane minds in Iran the attacks could continue for months..it is Iran's choice...Ghalibaf should know that there are many other sources of oil apart from the gulf...with infrastructure destroyed nobody will remember the Hormuz or the gulf...

July22-2026--The Iran's interior minister shows a preference for the CDF as a mediator...Iran should realize that mediation is not the reason for the iran-usa talks tobe a failure...the key problem is the Iranian attitude which prefers war i.e.. firing at ships and gulf states...unless it can get around that Trumpian attitude and want and desire peace...for a few dollars per ship it keeps attacking ships...Iran must want peace and that means that it does not want to fire missiles and drones to hit and trouble others...Obviously a submissive peace is difficult...Pakistan too is guilty in even suggesting that minor border matters can help in solution of problems...if Pakistan wants to support Iran in war than it should get out of mediation and send its missiles and fauj to help fight the war...like the proxies that they are

July22-2026--The USA continues 11th night of bombings in Iran...The USA says they will look into Pickaxe mountains and any new nuclear activity for bombings...USA says they are open for talks but Iran not serious 

July22-2026-- petrol stations in Pakistan to go on strike from Thursday on needless daily pricing mechanism...basing prices on international changes is meaningless when nothing is being imported

July22-2026--Rumours have it that Iran wants nuclear scientists from Pakistan and missile fuel/enrichment spares...apparently four scientists left with Iranian delegation as Russians are refusing to come to work on three under construction nuclear power stations...Pakistanis who have all-round experience will study how to make fuel rods they say..! supposedly the jovial primemiister said they will advise Iran on nuclear matters...there are reports of two crates sent to Iran

July21-2026--Two Saudi tankers make U-turn and head for the Suez with oil for China and India as Yemeni threats increase

July21-2026--Iran and US continued attacks...with Iran even attacking private concerns like Amazon...many say Iran is now at best a Russian base and US should attack them with impunity... Houthi's followed Russian orders to blockade the red sea...oil cargo ships were disabled by both Iran and USA...many say Iran also trying to ship thru Oman channel and using other devious methods to hide their oil shipments

July20-2026--The US continued its attacks on Iran for a straight ninth day and included targets in the interior which host military bases while Iran continued to hit sites in gulf countries...while Yemen said it would blockade the red sea outlet for Saudi oil which would have to use the Suez canal increasing transportation costs...the blockades would leave no outlet for gulf oil and countries would have to depend on the US, Russian and African sources...In Europe... Norway and Britain produce oil but are dependent on gas from Russia and the gulf along with big countries like japan, india and china...much of Asia depends on  gulf oil...the war expected to continue until Iran and the USA can reach a clearer agreement...negotiations they say continue...technically mediators that are weaker countries have failed to stop the spiraling conflict...Iran, Russia, Saudi Arabia , Venezuela and USA have the largest oil reserves...Pakistan which initially received praise for mediation has failed as it started to become subjugated to Iran for various reasons and was seen tobe involved in Iranian war decisions and had outsized expectations...Iran's development of better missiles fuels most of the war...

July20-2026--Brent prices of crude topped $90


July20-2026--The Islamabad memorandum is dead as both sides refuse to follow it...Iran was dead set against the memorandum anyway while Trump also did not like some details...Iran refused to believe that it cannot fire on civilian oil carriers...and USA says that it will retaliate Iranian attacks...Iran also refuses not to retaliate against gulf countries...It seems that hard liners which is most Iranian officialdom have gained strength in Iran while reports suggest that the military is gaining almost full control...Trump who now wants another full scale war is restricted many say by petrol prices, upcoming elections and reduced military supplies...Centcom's attempts to clear military installations from the Iranian coastline have not succeeded...Iran believes that it can handle a ground invasion on hormuz or Kharg  and that they should capture some soldiers from US bases...however capturing US soldiers or killing them will have negative repercussions on US opinions...

July20-2026--many donot understand while locally manufactured diesel and petrol prices will change daily...? many think that government is bent upon creating problems for ordinary people needlessly...!Pakistan does not do any trades in oil or its derivatives on a daily basis

July18-2026--another suicide van destroyed in Wana along with suicide bomber...In DI Khan a known terrorist killed

July18-2026--Andy Burnham set to be the next prime minister of England says he will not temper with defence and foreign policy...that leaves the difficult tasks of mending domestic policies and either reducing spending or increasing $6 billion in revenues(i.e..  just the increase in defence spending)…he says he will only be Labour and try to create regional hubs of finance and make life affordable... social care, NHS and welfare make the people happier...and the people need happiness for a government to survive...!

July18-2026--USA and Iran attack infrastructure projects...gulf states bear the brunt of Iranian animosity...attack's on Erbil and even Syria and Oman...USA and Houthis board tankers while USA and Iran hit tankers and disabled them...Iranian reports about mines said tobe false

July18-2026-- Pakistan initiates anti people daily petroleum rate changes...petrol and diesel rates raised...diesel goes to 354..since Pakistan is not ordering daily imports the daily change in rate is a dubious slyness tactic and will create problems for petrol stations...Many say Pakistan government showing its 'challaki' (meaning nastiness-slyness - makkari) against its people, gulf Arab states and USA. Senior government officials only seem happy in Iran hugging and smiling...Here they show morose dull serious angry faces in mostly governance chakarbaazi

July 16-2026--Governments must realize that AI is a help tool and only provides help when you ask for it and usually cannot do the task yourself or it would be take much longer...the decision making remains yours...The tasks involved are so difficult that ordinary humans would not even attempt to do them..AI brings specialist knowledge to your fingertips...Even than you must know what you want and decide that knowledge being given is what you want...most people are not artists or computer programmers...but AI can write code for you if you have some knowledge or draw pictures on your instructions...AI is very helpful to experienced people and does low level tasks for anyone

How it all started...coups and politics and islam and democracy...

How it all started...coups and politics and islam and democracy...
how bhuttos and imrans uncle(a general) + profesor ghafoor(JI) got into politics ---the ayub coup was a gath jor between sindhis and pukhtuns to topple the majority provinces of Punjab and Bengal in 1958...

debacle in Dacca

debacle in Dacca
another imran uncle---total humiliation...India had steadily destabilized east pakistan over twenty years playing on ethnic, financial, development and military concerns...pakistan was not that rich at that time and the ethnicists played on phsychosis generated by cyclones, floods, tea and jute...the army and west pakistani politicians could not accept a bengali dominated government and a small army contingent could not defend against the mukti bahini and the indians as teh US withdrew its support as usual...When teh going gets tough teh US chickens out as usual...!! The indians have continued teh same themes in karachi, sindh and balochistan but similar tougher responses have not allowed their success although pakistan is now at best a divided land with a pathetic center...!!While it left pakistan numb at the time many now feel the seperation was a proper solution as east pakistanis did not get along with pakistan and they would be better able to solve their problems with india...others still pine away for the lost land of rivers, tea and jute...others suggest that india should handover kashmir in exchange...while some still want to repatriate those considered pakistanis and left stranded in bangladeshi camps...others however heave a sigh of relief as teh problems with the remaining provinces are generally insoluble.....and ethnic regionalism or provincialism mixed with economic and racial nonsense is not a pleasant mode of politics anyway...

allah be praised
