So apparently, democracy here in Pakistan is like a rented car — the people think they’re driving, but the steering wheel’s just a prop. 🚗💼

Heartbreaking news from Pakistan: women & children brutalized, 'honor' killings for greed, while perpetrators often escape justice. Some flee West, others buy 'golden visas.' A system failing its most vulnerable. #JusticeForAll #EndViolence #Pakistan

Imran Khan blasts deep state puppet Asim Munir's fake 'hard state' from jail—it's just dictatorship crushing democracy! Dynastic crooks like Sharifs got VIP jail perks, but Khan's isolated for fighting corruption. Your vendetta's crumbling, crooks! #AsimLaw #FreeImranKhan

Israel never misses a chance to spit on America’s face — bombing Gaza after the US-sponsored peace deal. Washington looks like a father shamed by his own spoiled child. Power? Gone. Prestige? Dead. #Gaza #Israel #America #USPolitics #MiddleEast #WarCrimes #Shame

Nations that borrow to produce, progress.
Nations that borrow to consume, collapse.
Pakistan’s choice is simple — dignity or dependence.
It’s time to borrow smart, invest wise, and end the cycle of fiscal slavery.
#Leadership #PolicyMatters #FutureGenerations
Pakistan’s Never-Ending IMF Story: Borrowing for Survival, Not for Growth When Will We Finally Learn? Each time an IMF tranche lands in Pakistan, it’s celebrated like Eid in the corridors of power — applause in the Ministry of Finance, cheers at the State Bank, and smiling headlines across media outlets. Yet, outside those air-conditioned rooms, the nation braces for another storm — higher taxes, costlier electricity, inflated fuel prices, and a tighter noose around the common man’s neck. It’s no rocket science, but it seems we’ve forgotten the basics of economics. Borrowing for growth fuels progress. Borrowing for survival fuels decay. When nations borrow to invest in education, agriculture, manufacturing, and technology, they build wealth, capacity, and resilience. They create jobs, exports, and innovation — a cycle of productivity that strengthens both people and currency. Let’s be brutally honest — it never does. We’ve borrowed for decades and built little to show. We’ve paid interest in billions yet gained no self-reliance. Worse still, we’ve built a culture where even educated professionals and economists rush to congratulate each new loan approval, as though dependence were a national trophy 🏆. That applause is not patriotism — it’s economic servitude dressed as success. It’s not about politics — it’s about priorities and dignity. A proud nation borrows to produce, not to consume. A wise nation borrows to rise, not to survive. The formula is simple — yet forgotten: Nations that borrow to produce, progress. Nations that borrow to consume, collapse. It’s time Pakistan breaks the chain of fiscal dependence and redefines what “economic success” really means. #EconomicGrowth #PakistanEconomy #DebtCrisis #FiscalResponsibility #PublicFinance #IMF #EconomicReform #Leadership #Accountability #FutureGenerations #PolicyMatters #BorrowingForGrowth #SustainableDevelopment #ThinkPakistan #FinancialLiteracy

Pakistan bled dry—talent gone, poor & illiterate remain. I, a dynastic heir, love my fractured land. Imran in prison, Maryam reigns, I’m PM, Punjab & Sindh shadowed, Balochistan’s mines feed foreign powers. I vow to rebuild her glory.

When outsiders dictate Gaza’s destiny, it’s not peace
it’s colonisation dressed in blood.

Palestine deserves self-determination, not foreign bargains.

#FreePalestine #GazaUnderAttack #EndColonialism #StandWithPalestine #JusticeForGaza
The absolute stunning audacity of the people who have funded the decimation of Gaza joining together to create a peace plan that involves them taking control, is incredible. With Trump and our very own genocidal Tony Blair overseeing control of Gaza. For everyone that has ever questioned whether this is live-streamed colonisation, do you see it yet? Palestinians haven't been asking for "modernisation". They've been screaming for self-determination and for people to stop bombing them to death. The only support they've wanted from their Middle Eastern neighbours is to STOP the western onslaught. NOT to profit from it. This is beyond unacceptable. At the very least can we be honest about what this is. The only route to justice is through Palestinian self-determination and leadership.

Trump & Musk aren’t “investing” in the UK—they’re chaining it to digital slavery. $45B in AI deals = Britain as a data plantation for US billionaires. #DigitalColonialism #UKProtests #TrumpVisit
🔥 TRUMP & MUSK: CHAINS OF DIGITAL EMPIRE 🔥 Donald Trump did not come to London as a friend. He came as a salesman of servitude. Behind the pomp of his state visit, US tech overlords—Musk, Microsoft, Google, Nvidia— signed away Britain’s future. They call it “investment.” But it is blackmail. $42–$45 billion in AI deals that turn the UK into nothing more than a data plantation. Electricity drained. Land filled with energy-guzzling data centers. Every byte of British life owned, monetized, and controlled by America’s billionaires. Musk plays the prophet. Trump plays the patriot. But together, they script digital slavery. This is not partnership. This is plunder. Once it was muskets and tea. Now it is algorithms and cloud servers. The UK is being auctioned to Silicon Valley. Not a sovereign nation— a vassal state of data. The people are right to rise. History will not remember this as innovation. It will remember it as the sale of Britain’s soul.

Bajaur’s fight shows counterterrorism fails w/o tackling poverty & politics. Deep state fuels endless wars. Empower locals, end elite games! Share this on X to expose the truth.

#Bajaur #AntiDeepState #WarOnTerror

dissidentvoice.org/2025/09/baja...
In the past two decades, Bajaur-the tribal district in Pakistan has seen various military operations. This area has a stronghold of Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and Al-Qaeda, and the most critical operation was Operation Sherdil which was launched in 2008-2009. Countering insurgency has no full success in Bajaur, indicating that the tussle is between those in politics and society. The group formed in 2007, known as the TTP, is infamously popular for its sectarian violent acts and frequent suicide bomb blasts targeting Shia Muslims and state institutions. In 2025, TTP lost some fighters but retained some, which mostly prefer to base inside Afghanistan. While these TTP infiltrated Pakistan, it blamed Afghan intelligence elements and forces by way of Afghanism for not providing real help against TTP militancy. This has also enlarged combat operations in Bajaur by acquiring funds from the US to fight terrorism, which led to wrangling and suspicion about arms leakage to the militant groups. Not surprisingly, the tribal populace of Bajaur is extremely depressed owing to frequent military operations followed by the destruction of infrastructure and several thousands of families rendered homeless. 2009 to 2025 is the period most indicating the transformation of militancy in Bajaur. By 2025, it would rather be sporadic ambushes, assassinations, and recruitment drives rather than holding areas. The evolution of this case depicts that victories over militancy are possible through more than strength; it requires long-term governance, social rehab, and regional cooperation. The script of Bajaur has changed, going from Operation Sherdil to Operation Sarbakaf, indicating changes in Pakistan's strategy against insurgency and the evolving resilience of militant networks.
