    Mr.Khan made too many win win deals with Russia and China. So the strings were pulled

    Pakistan: Key players behind PM Imran Khan’s removal | Imran Khan News | Al Jazeera

    The brother of three-time prime minister Nawaz Sharif – who has been disqualified from ever again running for office and is currently in exile in Britain – Shehbaz is the main candidate to replace Khan.

    Knows nothing about the circumstances surrounding Khan's situation yet gobs of about sinister forces. Save us . . . OhWoe introduce the US connection and then sabang will tell us it's all the Anglo-NATO-EU-Aus-USAUSAUSA's shady dealings.


    Khan has already started on the USA-blame game instead of focussing on his disastrous economic policies

    Khan quote

    Pakistan became an independent state in 1947; but the freedom struggle begins again today against a foreign conspiracy of regime change. It is always the people of the country who defend their sovereignty & democracy.

    Haha

    US asked Pakistan not to proceed with Prime Minister Imran Khan's visit to Russia: Qureshi – ThePrint

    Repeating Khan’s remarks from Friday night’s address to the nation, he reiterated that the US State Department official (Donald Lu) had warned the Pakistani ambassador that if Imran Khan manages to save himself from the no-confidence motion, then Pakistan will have to face “severe consequences.” “If this is not a threat then what is?” he asked

    It will be the same old clique, just a different facade.

    In the end, Khan failed to deliver on his promises on corruption and the economy.

    That is just a fabrication. It has literally nothing to do with the economy. And everything to do with foreign policy. He was removed for being at the Kremlin on Feb 24th

    And its not over yet. It's just beginning.

    The opposition leader says it had everything to do with the economy, but yet again you’re the expert.

    I worked in Islamabad in 2003 on the Pakistan Navy's submarine project.

    This was the view from my room in the Marriott Hotel of the rifle toting guards on the roof taken with my amazing 2.4 megapixel pocket camera.

    I had a photo somewhere of the Marriott hotel after it had its front blown off by terrorists a couple of years later and you can actually see inside the room from where those photos are taken. The photo had an arrow pointing out my room but I can't find the photo now.

    I was assigned a personal bodyguard who sat behind me in the truck with this shotgun resting on his knee pointing forward as we trundled through Islamabad's bumpy pot-holed streets each morning and evening.

    I was nervously waiting to become a joke headline about the foreign contractor who got killed by his own security guard but Allah was watching over me it seems.

    More from Khans personal twitter acct

    Thank you to all Pakistanis for their amazing outpouring of support & emotions to protest against US-backed regime change abetted by local Mir Jafars to bring into power a coterie of pliable crooks all out on bail. Shows Pakistanis at home & abroad have emphatically rejected this.

    Never have such crowds come out so spontaneously and in such numbers in our history, rejecting the imported govt led by crooks. https://twitter.com/ImranKhanPTI/status/1513232489464041473/video/1

    Please make it stop.

    Someone? Anyone? Something?

    It's like Justin Bieber trying to explain the works of Stephen Hawking.
