Thunder And Lightning: History's Chinese Whisper
Thunderstorms and rain reminded me there was the spiritual concept of thunder being the angel's voice commanding...but who? What? I thought it was time to brush off on my memory and see again how theology and science explain this phenomena and that in turn led me to a thought I've always had re the wuxia world and their remarkable retention of the details noted in Islamic theology and how it was possible?

They Killed The Narrative Themselves
CORRECTION: *GB's elections. Not Kashmir. The voting, the rigging, the closing of polling stations all occured at GBThe army has always used Kashmir as their excuse to exist. Now, they have Killed this narrative Themselves as they marched into kashmir and did what we all blame India for doing in occupied kashmir. The pak army has tried to occupy Azad Kashmir. This is an act of betrayal and terror and is no different from India, Israel in Palestine or the USA in Iran. This alone questions the existence of this army.

The Narrative Trap
There is a very obvious narrative fabrication going on and the same old scapegoating but veteran anysrs seem to be falling for this trap...my take on why Larijani was killed: one being that he was automatically a target immediately after being announced...

Understand Your Boundaries
I have done So Many episodes on this in various different ways but some things don't change.This is not just social etiquette but it degines your class, your background and your character. This is not just etiquette but a religious ruling.

They Do Deserve To Be Killed.
Let's face it, there are certain people who deserve to be killed: scammers, robbers, house invaders, and frauds. The kind of loss and mental strain they impose upon others cannot be compensated especially in our country where the law enforcement abd government are always at the back of all these crimes. Human trafficking and drug trafficking are also among the crimes whose perps must be killed. People who think it iscfun to see if they can gsvk others , if they can cause others harm or loss, people who think it's fun to see how they can getvaway with causing pain must be killed because it means there is something wrong with their brain: these are the kind of people who set nations on fire if they become powerful like the US govt and the pak army and govt or the British govt. Such dangerous people need to be gotten rid of before they become a danger to the whole world.

Where Is The Justice? And The Betrayal?
This story or justice and Betrayal continues but while we're ahead,let's not get carried away with the narratives and be misled. Let's not forget what the real story is as it unfolds in front of us. Hunting dogs at the end are hunting dogs, and there are things they cannot do without endorsement of their superiors. How can one forget the simple obvious facts staring us in the face? Nawaz Sharif is extremely cunning and he seems to have always been successful in diverting his acts of crime from himself
-
517
Will Betrayal Arise And Where From
It is now crucial point to see whose man is actually in place: Khomeini's loyalists or the US plant. This will bevaeen by the parliament and the president's decision to hold the strait or open it. But at least the kool.aid has been washed off, and eyes are open as to who the real evil is in this world.NOTE: in case it wasn't clear, the 9 people killed in karachi were shot by the American consulate security.

Imperial Boomerang
Today I will try to string together the otherwise webbed out details into one shirt sweet connection. I will also try to explain my running theme using its correct term: imperial boomerang.

Another Two Birds One Stone Or A Double Whammy
A rumour circulating now re plans to deviously shift Imran Khan to the UK and forge a deal to fool the public begs the question, didn't we already all wo der if this was their plan? Are they asking for a green signal from the public by publicising their plans or do thry know we expected this all too obvious ploy and decided it didn't matter, just like how our mandate didn't matter?

The Two Fold Play At Hand
How my perspective as a former ex-pat born abroad and twice or thrice returned to Pakistan differs from one who has always lived in Pakistan. Listen to the second half and towards the end to understand the ploy, the reason behind the police force offending elected ministers.

Politics Business and Protests: As Protests Gain Momentum But Will It Succeed?
The youth Wing of PatI and the public have decided to stage a sit in protest demanding the release of Inran Khan as his treatment gets deliberately delayed again.

IK An International Asset
The chain of events have served to strengthen our doubts that Imran Khan's health is the cause of a deliberate and criminal act on the part of the govt and the authorities. This leads to ongoing concern as they still do not give him access to his own doctors and now make a move to send him to Al Shifa Trust Hospital. What are their intentions? I think that much has become vividly clear to us as the world is up in arms but the authorities aren't listening. This is the last chance for us as a collective body of people to come out, call a nationwide protest, without waiting for the political actors to stage their dharna or their rallies. This must be a pure revolt by the people. A revolt by the people is the only thing that can topple this government, and they know it, which is why they keep leading people by the nose, making them wait for 'calls' from politicians. This must be an organic surge, an explosion by the people if we want the results we are hoping for. And mark my words when i say this is our last chance.

When Your Daily Routine Is The Same As Ramadan
What to do when you realise you don't have to prep for Ramadan because your lifestyle is already much the same? And the way time whizzes by we even get the deep cleaning before time so that age old ritual of deep cleaning just before Ramadan which we did when young doesn't apply anymore.

Ramadan Trends Pt 2
The kitchen and social media debate: In part 2 we will be talking about the actual trends, kitchen habits, consumerism and social media and how to make them beneficial for Ramadan and afterwards for the rest of the year in changing our routines and lifestyle

Ramadan Reminders 2026
Our whole life has become one unending battle of survival which is probably why Ramadan is getting more and more difficult to go through with the required balance. But that is precisely why we should go back to the basics, to get that vibe back, to get thevstrength to practice the game of balance, to make that extra effort.

Isl Blast Pak Govt Confession
Basant and blasts...this division was deliberate, yes, but those who knowingly still decided to fall into the trap are equally to blame. This dead nation then wonders why it's screwed. But interestingly the govt and army practically confessed that they were the culprits behind the Isl blasts.

Stunted Growth and The Speed of Time
Two completely different and random thoughts. 1. A thought I have been remarking on : stunted Growth in Pakistan and 2. Thank God for digital footprint when you're a writer who has completely forgotten your own publications on newspapers and journals, Web forums and magazines

503
Privileges And Social Media
Privileges apparently don't only matter in the real.wotld but on social media as well. It was to be expected, but the irony isn't lost on us. A recent example is Nizamsni, born to celebrities and with a privileged background but I guess how he uses it to highlight the woes of the underprivileged matter?

Audacity Trends
Here are some habits trending among lunatics that makes one think we are the ones going mad.

It's Psychology
There is only one way to teach your opponents a lesson: push back and keep them down. It's a psychological fact that when you strike back the fear of being struck stops the perpetrator. Confronting your attacker strikes fear. When your own lawmakers break the law and when your own govt is corrupt then credibility is lost, so statements and news have no value. But one can use it to our advantage. Also, wisdom lies in knowing when you've made a statement, you have done enough, and it's okay to change your strategy.

There Are No Miracles
We need to wake up and smell thebfoul odour that's our lufe and future. Those who are Agnostic and those who believe in God, both are right now floundering in their realisation of powerlessness and helplessness but both are still not waking up from la la land. And we can achieve nothing until and unless we gather our wits about us and begin to take real action. Personal is political, people.
