ISMAIL HANIYEH
In a powerful display of solidarity, Pakistan's Parliament convened a funeral in absentia for former Palestinian Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh, a poignant gesture that transcended partisan divides. Members from both the government and opposition benches came together to pay their respects, underscoring the deep-seated affinity between Pakistan and Palestine.
As Pakistan observes a national day of mourning, this symbolic tribute serves as a testament to the enduring bond between the two nations. It is a stark reminder that, even in the face of adversity, the international community can come together to honor the legacy of a leader who dedicated his life to the pursuit of peace and self-determination. The collective outpouring of grief in Pakistan's Parliament today stands as a resolute affirmation of the unshakeable ties between Islamabad and Ramallah.
Ismail Haniyeh, you will not be forgotten.

LOVE FOR AYISHA
It was the sixth day in the hospital. The ward was quiet, save for the occasional beep of the monitor or a child crying in pain. Inside were Baby Ayisha, Amna Sahar, and me, all waiting for Ayisha to fully recover. It was a moment filled with a mix of hope and helplessness.
At that time, I received a message from a very close friend. She wanted to build a well in honor of her niece, who wasn't doing well. "Can you tell me her name please?" I asked, so I could relay the request to our team to get the well done immediately and also to request the beneficiaries to remember the little girl in her prayers. Her reply took my breath away: "Her name is Ayisha, and she is not well."
Stunned, I couldn't quite place why her words hit so hard. She's an extraordinary woman - compassionate, loving, and one of the best mothers I have ever known. But more than that, it was her deep empathy that moved me. She could sense our struggle, feel Baby Ayisha's pain, and respond with a gesture of such unparalleled kindness.
And, on other hand, we live in a world where people speak without giving a thought before.
You know who you are. We are blessed to have you in our lives, ALHAMDULILAH. Your love for Ayisha, for us, is unmatched. We may never be able to repay your generosity in full, but know that you have touched our lives for eternity.
Your love for Ayisha is unparalleled. This is the water well you built for her. I visited it last month. The well gushed out such sweet cold water that I was a little stunned again.
May Allah SWT bless you and your loved ones with your own special fountains in Jannah and bless you with ease always, Ameen, Sum Ameen.

As our governments lead us down a path of economic instability, they have also dealt a blow to our small businesses. In Islamabad, in D-17, the local food vendors are feeling the pinch as the micro enterprises have been shut down in the name of selective and short term enforcement. These vendors are left without recourse or alternative spaces to operate.
While the less fortunate face 'austerity', the wealthy continue to benefit from government perks like subsidies and tax breaks, while the government officials enjoy an endless list of perks and privileges, from free fuel, to free cars, to free health services, to free phones, to free residences, to subsidized food in clubs and messes that they can only access.
Never expected Mian Shehbaz Sharif following the playbook of Imran Khan. These stunts, from blocking SIMs, causing loss to farmers and shutting down micro enterprises - the government is definitely not doing itself any favour.
Anyways, this is how the Government of Pakistan says Happy Labor Day.

Even in the midst of US Presidential Elections transmission, CNN would throw these 30 seconds of calm between the transmission. The analysts on Geo News Urdu, ARY News and other channels are sitting non-stop from day to night discussing politics.
Thora unko bhi araam do aur awaam ko bhi. Tuadi Meherbani.
#30SecondsofCalm #AjeebRatingKiDourHai
The difference between Mian Sb and Khan is that one is a serious leader and the other is only a fantasy. Don't mistake his celebrity status as substance and his popularity as competence.
Farq jaan ke geo. #PakistanKoNawazDo
Dushman marey te khushi na kariye, sajna vee mar jana.
Instead of her humility, we got #ProjectImran. Miss you Shaheed BB. <3
When Marhoom Arshad Sharif was love when he revealed Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf's connection with India and Israel.
Sad, later on, he joined this anti-Pakistan movement.
🔍 Unmasking PTI and the Fascism Playbook 🔍
In this eye-opening video, we delve into the chilling parallels between the historical fascism playbook of Mussolini and Hitler, and the actions of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI). The speaker fearlessly exposes PTI's patterns that distinguish it from other political entities, shedding light on their unapologetic pursuit of absolute power.
👁️🗨️ Key Points Discussed:
1. Absolute Power Quest (Rule #1): The hunger for absolute power is laid bare, with a focus on incidents like PTI's critique of the 18th Amendment and the delay in the vote of no confidence, both reflecting a blatant disregard for democratic principles.
2. Suppression of Political Dissent (Rule #2): The authoritarian strategy of stifling political dissent is exemplified by the imprisonment of opponents, notably Rana Sana Ullah Khan. The speaker vividly recounts the case, highlighting the extreme measures taken during Imran Khan's tenure.
3. Media Manipulation and Censorship (Rule #3): The video delves into PTI's control over media, discussing blanket bans and coercion on journalists. Prominent figures like Syed Talat Hussain and Matiullah Jan faced persecution, revealing a concerning trend that aligns with historical fascist practices.
4. Erosion of Democratic Values (Rule #4): The illegal squashing of the vote of no confidence in 2022 is dissected, portraying a severe blow to democratic values. The manipulation of political terrain raises questions about the health of democracy in Pakistan.

Imran dissolved his provincial governments on the advice of the same Bajwa who toppled his government.
Ye to market mein naya aaya hai. 🤣
What does this teach about life?
If the government decides to get you, they are going to get you.
ROs explaining Imran why they rejected his nomination papers.
Yaar is ne mujhe rula diya. Boys and PMLN, please isko aik baar phir CM bana do. Isko maaf kardo please. Masoom ki haaye lug jaye gi.
Mein isko dukhi nahi dekh sakta. 😭
Finally a LUMS kid has been schooled. Applaud the Government for their efforts in this regard.
Rulaye ga kya pagle? Dil chota nahi karna, poora tournament parra hua hai. Aur haar bhi gaya to bhi kui ghum nahi, teri abhi umar hee kya hai pagley?
Chal ansoo paunch abhi.

Sarfaraz Bugti has exposed a troubling connection between security forces and smuggling. He informed that Gen. Asim Munir has issued a stern warning within Army - anyone found complicit in smuggling will face court martial and a prison sentence.
This is indeed a breath of fresh air. Kudos to both the gentlemen.
Short movie on Project Imran showing its journey from progress to its eventual decline. Must watch till the end. #EyeOpener
