KARACHI: It may have been a sign of stricter government controls: the number of accounts reported to Twitter by the Government of Pakistan has dropped by 40% year on year in the first six months of 2019, according to the social networking site’s 15th biannual report.
CheersThe number of profiles reported between January and June this year stands at 1,798 as against 3,004 in the same period last year, says the Twitter’s transparency report released on Thursday. The government sent requests for the removal of 265 accounts in the mentioned period.

IF this bit is true, looks like China is pushing bakis to hand Hafiz Suar to India indirectly!
Or this might be a joint effort by the Chinese and The Hindu paper to project a softer, a more reasonable image of China on the Indian public. China gets to polish it image amongst the Indians without it or its proxy bakis having to deliver anything. Nice!Jeff M. @Cold_Peace_
“At a 35-minute meeting, at least 10 minutes of the discussion dealt with Saeed. The Chinese President was keen on pressing the Prime Minister to find an early solution to keep Saeed away from the limelight,” a close aide of [Pak PM] Abbasi told The Hindu, requesting anonymity.

You may be right here. It does look like the army is not behind the protest which makes this a lot more interesting. There is this theory floating around that some disgruntled crore kammandus are behind this protest. The timing of the protest is also intriguing because Bajwa's extension has not yet been notified by the Paki president. Whatever it is I'm rooting for Maulana Diesel to become the wazir-e-azam. IA!Anujan wrote:Army may not be behind the protest (well in Pakiland you can never be sure about anything). The TFTAs are firmly behind dimran.
Apparently Mullah Diesel saw a opening where both PPP and PML are down and out, Dimran policies are unpopular and he can grab some power this way.
The reason dimran is soiling his chaddis are because Fazlu's people are capable of thod phod and giving Peshawar KFC it's 72. That too when the dekhonomoney is in Pakistan. Dimran can't even complain about it because it's exactly what he did. His followers made Isloo an open air Pakistan for many days.
https://twitter.com/mazdaki/status/1190373968202665989KARACHI: Pakistani military is an impartial state institution which always supports democratically elected governments in accordance with the Constitution, said the chief military spokesperson late Friday night hours after the JUI-F chief asked the ‘state institutions’ to stop supporting the ‘illegitimate government’.
Maulana Fazlur Rehman, while addressing his supporters earlier in the day, said if the ‘institutions’ tried to protect the ‘illegitimate government’ after the expiration of a two-day ultimatum he has given to Prime Minister Imran Khan to resign, then the opposition would be free to form an opinion about the ‘institutions’.
“Maulana Fazlur Rehman is a senior politician. He should clarify which institution he is talking about,” DG ISPR Major General Asif Ghafoor said in a television interview. “Pakistan’s armed forces are an impartial state institution which always supports democratically elected governments,” he added.
Maulana’s very close family member from my Peshawar mohallah is certain that he’s gone all in. Wily politicians around him still don’t know the endgame but sense that he’s building it up to crescendo for Monday
That's my reading also.

Also, one of the Crore commanders has been denied COAS position, due to Bajwa's extension.nachiket wrote:What is Mullah Diesel's real endgame here? He is not stupid enough to believe a Dharna can make Dimran step down. Only Bajwa can do that and Bajwa is not going to show weakness at this point. That might trigger an internal coup against him by his crore commanders who are already causing problems.

Two narratives - The Friday Times
Hajam Sethi November 1, 2019
Two powerful and unprecedented narratives are playing havoc with the sentiments of the nation. The first is about Nawaz Sharif’s disqualifications and convictions, personal health and heir apparent. This narrative is fast assuming critical mass in the democratic struggle for civilian supremacy over the Miltablishment. The second is about Maulana Fazal ur Rahman’s “long march” that has arrived in Islamabad and captured the stage for ousting Imran Khan and his PTI government.
The success of one narrative feeds into the other. Together, they serve to reinforce the popular rejection of the unholy alliance of the Miltablishment with the PTI that seeks, first, to exclude the two mainstream PMLN-PPP parties, the JUI and smaller regional parties and their political leaders from the political stakeholder landscape and, second, to establish a one-Miltablishment party rule in the country that diminishes the constitutional rights and autonomies of civil society, media and judiciary.
In an extraordinary display of personal courage and political astuteness, Nawaz Sharif has resisted Miltablishment efforts to emasculate him physically and politically so that the PMLQ reverts to its traditional King’s Party role. The more Nawaz has stood his ground despite failing health, the more popular he has become; the more the Miltablishment joins with select judges to thwart him, the more discredit they heap upon themselves. It has now come to pass that the Miltablishment is desperate to let him go so that his failing health doesn’t become a millstone around its neck.
Maulana Fazl has sprung up out of nowhere to seize the moment. His JUI is a most unexpected and unsuitable substitute for the PPP or PMLN. But he has filled the vacuum created by the decimation of the leadership of both parties and captured the imagination of the people. The Miltablishment is now scrambling to save its nth political experiment in extra-constitutionalism.
Several questions have arisen. If Nawaz Sharif has dug his heels in to resist the Miltablishment, why isn’t the rest of the PMLN parliamentary leadership in step with him? The pressure on him from Miltablishment, party and “family” to leave the country and quit politics is relentless. Indeed, that is why the PMLN has not actively lent its crowds to swell the long march heading to Islamabad. Much the same may be said of Asif Zardari and the PPP. Is it because both PMLN and PPP are cowering in shame and impotence following credible charges of corruption against party bigwigs, and wish to avoid coming under the Miltablishment heel any more forcefully?
This raises the question of why Maulana Fazl has decided to take a solo flight at the end of October and refused to postpone it even by a month at the request of both Shahbaz Sharif and Bilawal Bhutto. Never one to resist the inducements of power, he has taken on both the PTI government and the Miltablishment. If his purpose was merely to oust Imran Khan, his mission would have been better served by taking along the PMLN and PPP and delaying the Long March. No, it does seem that he has thrown the gauntlet to that section of the Miltablishment and PTI that is constantly threatening all and sundry with its “same-page” unity because he has the implicit but firm support of those in the same constellation who are not on the same page.
One issue, above all, has muddied the waters. That is the matter of the extension in tenure of COAS General Qamar Javed Bajwa. Since both Gen Bajwa and Imran Khan never tire of reminding everyone of unity and continuity in command, this was a no-brainer. Yet some decidedly curious steps and statements have clouded the issue. In mid-August we were shown a “notification” from the office of the PM, signed by Imran Khan, giving an extension of three years to Gen Bajwa. But when it was pointed out that the notification must come from the office of the President of Pakistan, there was a stunning silence. In mid-September, a journalist asked President Arif Alvi whether he had signed and issued any such notification. His reply: “Although a decision has been taken to extend Gen Bajwa’s tenure, the file has not yet been sent up to me for signing.” Now, on the eve of the Maulana’s entry into Islamabad, a journalist has been put up to “confirm” that such a notification has indeed been signed by President Alvi. If that is the case, why is everyone pussyfooting around the subject? Why don’t we get to see the notification? Has it been signed but not declared in the public domain for some reason? Might the invisible “notification” be withdrawn or substituted by another notification in the near future? Does Maulana’s demand for Imran Khan’s ouster have anything to do with it? Who is going home? How close are the objectives of Nawaz Sharif and the Maulana? The answers are blowing in the wind.

Hot breakfast fresh off the portable stove, on the Krachi-Pindi Express. Luxurious container accommodation right on the Scenic Pindi-Muzzbad-YellowSea highway. Trying to get rid of them is like trying to get rid of termites or roaches.
More context: (Google translate from French):
In 2017 in Saint-Benoît (east of Reunion), a man suspected of Islamist radicalization shot at the police officers who came to call him at his home. Two police officers were injured. In 2015, a jihadist sector, the first overseas, was dismantled in Reunion. It was headed by a 21-year-old Salafist preacher who had urged several young people from Reunion to start jihad in Syria.
