In a jointly investigated report, Survival Dispatch and CommandEleven have determined the laws to remove radical Islamic terrorists and everyone financing them – including donors to mosques preaching the death of Americans – are already on the books. There is no excuse. There is no reason for delay.
The conferral of civil awards in Pakistan has always been a subject of debate, but the investiture ceremony held on March 23, 2025, under President Asif Ali Zardari has sparked particularly intense discussions. This year, the inclusion of Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto (ZAB), as a posthumous recipient of the Nishan-e-Pakistan, has led to accusations of political favoritism, while the recognition of certain journalists has further ignited controversy.
Salman Lali, a Contributing Fellow at CommandEleven, joined Yasmeen Ali to discuss the implications and complications that will arise from deporting Afghan refugees back to Afghanistan. Salman spoke in detail about the security and humanitarian concerns that will develop as a result of the Government of Pakistan’s decision to re-start the deportment of Afghans from Pakistan, even if they have a valid Afghan Refugee card.
Alas, the dream remained just that—a dream, never realized. The first decade ushered in a plethora of challenges: the Kashmir war, the Constituent Assembly’s failure to draft a constitution, the tragic demise of Pakistan’s founder and first Governor General, Muhammad Ali Jinnah, in a broken ambulance en route from Karachi Airport, and the assassination of the inaugural Prime Minister, Liaquat Ali Khan, in Rawalpindi.
Expert analysis of Pakistan’s judicial crisis: Ahad Cheema case and the controversial letter from 6 Supreme Court judges. Insights on governance breakdown.
A lot has been written about the present environment in the country and even more has been debated around the pulls and pushes of a political conflict that is going nowhere. A conflict that is recognised to be one between a coalition of tainted people, rejected by the populous, dubious, corrupt characters – each with a skeleton in their respective cupboard standing against the one single largest popular party within the country that insists that it was removed from power by deceit, fraud and treachery. It’s this Coalition versus the people
I see chaos before me and confusion all around – the future is dark and hope illusive. People have become irrelevant – their needs immaterial, the judiciary an accessory to crime, the government an accomplice to anarchy; it is why I am reminded of the famous saying when, ‘one party is shameless the other cannot afford to be spineless’.
A few days ago, I released an article, which will be published shortly in a couple of magazines. One of the recommendations in the article related to a ‘technocrat government’, a concept that I have been advocating of and on since quite a while now. Having read the article, Haider Raza Mehdi, a journalist and analyst, was highly critical of my suggestions.
Pakistan, a unique State that came into existence in 1947 and ever since then has remained in search of a national identity. The justification for demanding and then acquiring a separate homeland is vehemently supported by the ‘two nation theory’. That is usually explained as that Hindus and Muslims were two separate nations and could never live together.
Indeed, even this benevolent soul who with the passage of time fell for his abductor, did not voluntarily stroll into the net. The hunters, like the commanders on the battlefield, go great lengths to persuade their game walk into the killing zone. It’s quite a feat, and some of us obviously like to claim credit – even if the prey got into trouble without our help.
This is the one sacrosanct element that holds a nation together and if demolished brings the country down with it. Thus, all nations have such a Center of Gravity and it is usually found in their democracy or their people, may be in their government or even in their economy etc. but in Pakistan it has been the Pakistan Army. This was always by default rather than design.
We now have people in power, preaching to the rest of us lowly mortals with rhetoric of the righteous yet they display a black heart – hypocrisy at its best. It would even be funny and quite hilarious, had the consequence of their incompetence, indifference and lack of capacity not be as damning for the people as it is.
