Dear @CMShehbaz, please call out the mosque shooting in San Diego and condemn/scold (along with Asim Munir) Donald Trump for the bigoted Islamophobic ecosystem he has enabled. Given that Trump admires & respects the Field Marshal, he might just listen and change domestic policy.



Jo koi b dropsite chala tha ha is not a wellwisher of khan. Digging bigger holes for him. Lol. I feel bad for khan but seeing youthias i remember why i hated him




@MoosaAsim6 Most 18 years old work in Pakistan? 🤡 Seriously? Who hires them ? Do they give them salary in cash or via bank transactiom? Do the employer deduct income tax? Do these 18 years old file their tax returns?

🚨 Drop Site’s piece reads less like investigative journalism and more like a carefully constructed validation of PTI’s long-running political mythology. Imran Khan is portrayed throughout as the lone “ghairatmand” nationalist leader — an independent thinker who resisted the Americans, brushed aside Saudi pressure, refused to meet the CIA chief with his famous “absolutely not,” and stood firm while everyone else around him allegedly sold out Pakistan’s interests. Meanwhile, Gen Asim Munir is framed almost exclusively as a Washington stooge willing to compromise Pakistan’s strategic interests, even insinuating readiness to expose sensitive nuclear-related matters to the Americans. The article essentially repackages years of PTI talking points: the so-called “London Plan,” the narrative that every military and political actor except Imran Khan was compromised, and the idea that Khan alone resisted foreign diktats. Its treatment of CPEC is equally selective. The piece accuses Munir of bringing CPEC-II to a halt while conveniently whitewashing the role played by Imran Khan’s own government, where figures like Razaq Dawood openly questioned Chinese agreements, contributing significantly to the freezing of Chinese investment and distrust in Beijing. Ironically, despite attempting to lionize Khan, the report may have damaged him the most. The publication of the notorious cipher in its original form raises serious legal and political questions. If this was indeed the same classified document Khan claimed was “lost,” its appearance in media circulation could potentially reopen debate around mishandling of classified state material and expose him to further legal jeopardy. The piece also revives competing narratives around Asim Munir’s removal as DG-ISI. One version suggests he was sidelined for refusing to align with Khan during the Tehran visit, allegedly upsetting the Iranian leadership. The more widely circulated counter-version remains that Munir was removed after raising concerns regarding Bushra Bibi’s alleged dealings with Malik Riaz and probing too deeply into matters linked to Khan’s inner circle. In trying to build a heroic political myth around Imran Khan, the article ends up exposing contradictions, recycling partisan narratives, and publishing material that could carry consequences far beyond journalism.


Hmmmm
