Is it true that Turkey is offering to sell its unused S-400 to Pakistan?

Can Russia veto such a deal?

sanman ji


Two birds with one stone


get rid of the S-400s to please the amrikis

Appease the Amrikis - so that they don't clobber us again with more Banglas?

I think every time we appease them, it only makes them see the utility in clobbering us more to get similar results.

destabilize the Indian regional space by arming the pakis with a potent system and help to somewhat contain India, making both cheen and amrika happy


S-400s spares, upgrades and even normal maintenance will take a hit, so the cheeni will step in

this also means that the turkis have seriously damaged their relations with russia and are looking to buy the F-35s from the amrikis

Turkey harming its relations with Russia really doesn't affect us. It does however put another feather in Deep State's cap.

Why doesn't Turkey just sell S-400 to Iranians who have the money to pay for it?
Or else why don't we buy it from Turkey, since we could use it too? And we too have the money, unlike Pakis.

The amrikis are big dogs and certainly know how to play the game. A deal with the cheen to change regime in beediland and a deal with the turkis to put the squeeze on India by arming the pakis

With the beedis in turmoil, the cheen and the amrikis both have us in a rapidly tightening geopolitical grip on two fronts

Yes, it seems we're back to Amriki-China Bhai-Bhai of Nixon & Kissinger era.
I guess Taiwan and Philippines suddenly don't matter as much anymore.

I think we need to come up with our own Hindi-Chini game to rival the Amriki-Chini game. We should help CHina to build up its presence in America''s backyard. That will put Amrikis on back foot and give us more leverage. India isn't much of a prize for China to raid, compared to raiding America's wealthier flunkies.

Since both US & China are inclined toward conquering us, then it's best we focus on bringing the two of them into mutual conflict.

one has a strong feeling that a serious regime change operation may soon be launched in India with the cooperation of cheen and amrika, just like what they have done to the beedis

Yeah, I'm wondering what that Amriki-Chini deal might be, and whether it sacrifices the interests of Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Philippines, etc.

When faced with joint Amriki-Chini threat in the past (1971), we've turned toward Moscow to help save us.
I don't know what Moscow could do for us this time though, since the power balances are much different now than in 1971.

there is one seditious clown in India who is continuously cheering from the sidelines

Indira Gandhi died fighting Khalistanis, but her clown grandkid is silent on them today.

Indira Gandhi led 1971 War to liberate Bangladesh, but her clown grandkid is again silent on Bangla today.

All it took was one Italian to mess up their family legacy.

a cheen amriki deal on taiwan may be the reason for all this cheen amriki geopolitical bonhomie and India may well be the prime target

China is much bigger and greedier today than it was in 1971.

We need to offer them a bigger fish to feast on than ourselves. We can help steer them towards America's backyard, where it can find a much more satisfying feast to much on.

We can do this because we too are also bigger and stronger than we were in 1971.

If America & China, in spite of their mutual differences, can cooperate on raiding India's backyard, then India & China in spite of their mutual differences can cooperate on raiding America's backyard.

Also, the US Dollar is America's greatest remaining treasure.
We should find some way to come up with a currency game against US Dollar, perhaps with China's help.
We've avoided that in the past, because we didn't want China's currency to benefit.
But now that America has put a knife to our throat thru Bangla, we have to seriously think about how to do this.
Ideally, we would want a way to undermine US Dollar without overly benefiting China's currency. Where there's a will, there's a way.

First we have to wait and see if Trump wins, to see if he can/will reverse some of the corrupt hegemonic imperialist moves by the Deep State.

But if he loses, then I don't think Kalama can do anything for us, since she's just a puppet for the Deep State.
In which case, we should immediately proceed with full expediency on what I've said.

ToI - Former ISI chief Faiz Hameed arrested, court martial initiated: Pakistan army

Former Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) chief Faiz Hameed was arrested by Pakistan military in connection to a housing scheme scandal and the process for his court martial was initiated, the army said on Monday.

It is for the first time in the country's history that court martial has been initiated against a former intelligence chief, according to Dawn.

“Complying with the orders of Supreme Court of Pakistan, a detailed court of inquiry, was undertaken by Pakistan Army, to ascertain correctness of complaints in Top City case made against Lt Gen Faiz Hameed (Retd),” a press statement by Pakistan army said further adding that "the process of Field General Court Martial has been initiated and Lt Gen Faiz Hameed (Retd) has been taken into military custody.”

“Consequently, appropriate disciplinary action has been initiated against Lt Gen Faiz Hameed (Retd), under provisions of Pakistan Army Act,” the release further said.

'Allegations of extremely serious nature, would undermine reputation of govt, army'
The Supreme Court, in its order dated November 14 last year, had said that the allegations against Hameed were of "extremely serious nature" and "would undermine the reputation of the federal government, the armed forces, ISI and Pakistan Rangers, therefore, they cannot be left unattended.”

So is current Army leadership running scared, worried about potential for regime change against them?
I see Imran supporters online citing Bangla protests and saying this must happen in Pak too.

I really feel that we should not pass up the opportunity to spread Bangla Spring to Pakistan.
Gotta make use of that momentum and not squander it.
Especially when Pak has been stepping up terror against us.

Btw, is China indifferent to who's in charge in Pak, whether Imran or Asim Munir?
After all, at least Imran was more anti-USA than current COAS. Surely China would notice that.

[sanman]

Asim Munir is behaving like a wounded tiger -- he's clearly feeling vulnerable, if he's purging others like Emperor Xi does.
Uneasy Lies the Head That Wears the Crown.

Leave aside Unknown Gunmen for now -- it's time to use the momentum from Bangla Spring to promote Paki Spring.

Can't squander that momentum, which provides a useful opportunity.

Also gives us opportunity to show USA that we're a lot more responsive than meek helpless Arab states who have to suffer whatever Arab Springs the US heaps on them.

In jihadistan the fauj is the sarkaar and corner all the stuff for their employees... so the spring is unlikely unless and until the file goes against the ranks.

The file and their families have been feeling the pinch of inflation for some time now. But it needs to get much worse for them for it to result in open revolt.

The Communist Party of China is officially atheist but China’s premier, Li Qiang, recently had a “come to Jesus” meeting with Pakistan’s prime minister, Shehbaz Sharif.

While in China, Sharif met Dr. Wu Fulin, chairman of the Export-Import Bank of China, and promised action to improve governance, increase tax revenue, and ensure ease of doing business to attract foreign direct investment.

In Central Asia, a key regional initiative is the trans-Afghan railway to connect Central Asia to Pakistan on a route from Termez, Uzbekistan to Mazar-i-Sharif, Afghanistan, thence to Karachi, Pakistan, the UAP railway. The railway will also facilitate the exploitation of Afghanistan’s mineral resources, believed to be worth $1 trillion. The $6.9 billion project will face engineering challenges but a bigger risk is unresolved Taliban-Pakistan tensions. But if Pakistan and the Taliban can’t resolve their dispute, Central Asia has Plan B, the International North-South Transport Corridor (INSTC), a 7200 km multimodal transportation network that links the Indian Ocean to Russia and Northern Europe. In June 2023 the Uzbek and Iranian presidents agreed to increase economic cooperation and trade using Iran’s ports of ports of Chabahar and Bandar Abbas.

Andrew Korybko notes that partial completion of the UAP railway may still benefit the republics if they can backhaul Afghanistan’s minerals for processing in the republics or in Russia or China. The republics may be able to secure investment for local, sustainable processing of the minerals (with off-take agreements) if Washington and Brussels think that will keep the stuff out of Russian and Chinese hands.

Mineral processing powered by natural gas from Turkmenistan will help Ashgabat diversify away from its reliance on China as an export market as it strengthens the region by helping it climb the value chain.

Trade relations between Uzbekistan and Pakistan have been growing steadily in recent years. In 2022, Pakistan exported goods worth $153 million (M) to Uzbekistan, with the main products being agricultural products and packaged medicaments. Pakistan's exports to Uzbekistan increased at an annualized rate of 44.5%, from $24.3M in 2017 to $153M in 2022.

Uzbekistan exported goods worth $134 million to Pakistan in 2022, the primary products being mostly agricultural products and cotton yarn. Uzbekistan's exports to Pakistan grew at an annualized rate of 69.7%, from $9.53M in 2017 to $134M in 2022.

In February 2023, Kazakhstan and Pakistan signed a transit trade agreement and the sides are considering an agreement between the State Bank of Pakistan and the National Bank of Kazakhstan to encourage cooperation in the banking sector. In June 2024, Kazakhstan invited Pakistan to join the first North-South Transport Corridor forum in Aktau.
Trade between the countries has grown significantly in recent years. In 2022, Pakistan exported $95.5M to Kazakhstan, mostly agricultural products. Over five years Pakistan’s exports to Kazakhstan increased at an annualized rate of 12.7%, from $52.5M in 2017 to $95.5M in 2022.

Kazakhstan exported $45.9M to Pakistan in 2022. The main exports were iron products and fertilizer. Over five years the exports of Kazakhstan to Pakistan grew at an annualized rate of 43.3% from $7.59M in 2017 to $45.9M in 2022.

Since July 2023, a direct air corridor has been established between Pakistan and Kazakhstan, and in August 2024 the countries announced the Trans-Afghan Multimodal Transport Corridor, from Kazakhstan via Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, and onward by sea to the port of Jebel Ali, United Arab Emirates, a journey of 20-25 days.

Trade between Pakistan and Turkmenistan is negligible. In 2022, Pakistan exported $1.27M to Turkmenistan, the major item being soap. Over five years the exports of Pakistan to Turkmenistan decreased at an annualized rate of 17%, from $3.23M in 2017 to $1.27M in 2022.

Exports from Turkmenistan were slightly better at $8.77 million in 2022, mostly sheep hides and cotton products. Over five years the exports of Turkmenistan to Pakistan dropped at an annualized rate of 11.5%, from $16.2M in 2017 to $8.77M in 2022.

In 2022, Iran exported $762M to Pakistan. The main products were petroleum gas, electricity, and petroleum coke. Over five years the exports of Iran to Pakistan decreased at an annualized rate of 2.12%, from $848M in 2017 to $762M in 2022.

Pakistan’s exports to Iran are negligible, amounting to $22, 300 to Iran, the main products being iron pipes, medical instruments, and utility meters. Over five years exports of Pakistan to Iran decreased sharply at an annualized rate of 83.1%, from $162M in 2017 to $22.3k in 2022. It remains to be seen how bilateral trade will reach $10 billion when Pakistan’s exports are currently equal to the price of a used automobile.

In 2022, Pakistan exported $975M to Afghanistan, the main products being rice, packaged medicaments, and vegetable oils. Over 5 years exports of Pakistan to Afghanistan decreased at an annualized rate of 13.4%, from $2B in 2017 to $975M in 2022.

Conversely, Afghanistan exported $847M to Pakistan, the main products being coal briquettes, raw cotton, and grapes. Over 5 years exports of Afghanistan to Pakistan increased at an annualized rate of 11.5%, from $440M in 2017 to $847M in 2022.

Perhaps anticipating Moscow’s action, in May the Taliban announced a logistics and energy trading hub at Herat in the country’s northwest to facilitate oil sales from Russia to South Asia. The project will be in cooperation with Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan, which highlights the republics’ approach to Kabul: Kazakhstan removed the Taliban from its terrorist list in December 2023, and Uzbekistan never declared the Taliban an extremist group and in 2018 publicly encouraged the Taliban to start negotiations with the Islamic Republic. Turkmenistan was mum on the topic of the Taliban in line with its policy of permanent neutrality.

Iran’s new president, Masoud Pezeshkian, published “My message to the new world” to explain his policies that include championing the establishment of a “strong region“ to include not just the states that border Iran but also Türkiye and the Arab states of the Persian Gulf. Pezeshkian’s policy is a continuation Tehran’s 2005 “Look East” policy that formalized increasingly close ties to Beijing and Moscow and was formulated before the China-brokered rapprochement with Saudi Arabia.

sanman ji,

They have also arrested three more retd ISI/paki army chappies, according to some reports, including a brigadier

The fresh arrests of three other officers have come for “actions prejudicial to military discipline”, said the military in a statement carried by Reuters.

The statement added that the military continued to investigate some retired officers and their accomplices for “fomenting instability at the behest of, and in collusion with, vested political interests”, as per the news agency.

This will result in a blood feud that may have repercussions at some later date

It's certainly a sign of fear by the establishment.
I'm wondering if it may cause internal divisions among the army rank & file. I've heard that a number of them do feel supportive of Imran Khan.

I wonder mow much of the rest of Pak Army see Asim Munir as upholding Pakistan's interests, versus how many see him as upholding his own personal interests.

Azad Balochistan Zindabad!

In a horrific incident that unfolded in the troubled southwestern region of Pakistan on Monday, armed assailants targeted and killed 23 passengers after forcibly removing them from buses, vehicles, and trucks, according to police and news agency AP quoted official sources as saying. Gunmen shot at passengers after checking their identities.

The attack, which ranks among the most lethal in the area, took place during the night in the Kusakhail district of Balochistan province. The perpetrators set fire to at least 10 vehicles before making their escape from the crime scene.

Although no group has claimed responsibility for the attack yet, but the attack came after separatist group Baluch Liberation Army warned people to stay away from highways, as they launched attacks on security forces in various parts of the province.

The power of boycott of MNCs by Jazbaati pakis. 7th generation economic warfare

Yawn - To Boycott or Not to Boycott?

Let’s first try to understand the reality behind the impact of Pakistanis supporting the boycott. Take the example of one of the largest consumer goods companies in Pakistan that is currently facing a boycott of their products. The company, despite being one of the biggest in the country, contributes 0.2% to the total global revenue of the parent company and 0.3% of the total global net profit. This is based on the current USD to PKR conversion rate. Therefore, if we look at the P&L impact of the boycott at the global level, the parent company will suffer a loss of less than 0.1% of the value of their total sales , even if the Pakistani affiliate company loses half their sales . Even more interesting is that the cash flow of the global parent company will not be affected because profits generated in Pakistan have not been transferred to the global parent company for over a decade.

The reality is that the boycott will not have any financial impact on the global company. Conversely, the current boycott can very well create unemployment across a lot of sectors in Pakistan that are dependent on the sales of multinational companies.

Or take Fiverr, which is headquartered in Israel and through which Pakistan’s freelance community has already generated half a billion dollars a year. A boycott of Fiverr would potentially result in a loss of revenue and employment opportunities. Half a billion dollars in Pakistan’s current economic situation is no joke.

As local brands ride the favourable tide, how should the multinational companies weather this storm , which frankly does not seem to be abating any time soon? # for this delusional baki eggspurt a 0.1% dip in sales is a 'Storm'

A tried and tested formula to handle this phase for these multinational brands under fire would be to donate towards humanitarian causes for Gaza, although I doubt if their global headquarters would endorse such a move.

# in other words Pakis are ok if the yahoodis kill filistanis as long as they pay some dollars to the ummah NGOs, including bakistan

[sanman]

Is it even remotely true that some Pak officers have been put to death as part of army purge by Asim Munir?
I find this hard to believe. It would provoke schism and civil war.

Rcase sir, a recent WB report has stated that 40% of Pakis are now below the poverty line.

That's some 96 million (if their population number of approx 240 million is to be accepted as fairly accurate)

So we can expect the numbers to grow sharply from 38 million to cross 50 million very soon. Inshallah it may even reach a halal 72 million within next 1-2 years.

If you follow Paki social media you will see almost everyone (except the feudals) moaning that they are selling everything from motorbikes, home appliances, furniture, jewelry etc to pay their electricity and gas bills.

A tale of two articles

Enchandee compliant as sanctioned by the establishment

Tribune - What do Pakistanis love about their country?

A comprehensive survey conducted by Ipsos has unveiled the aspects of Pakistan that its citizens cherish the most, highlighting a deep sense of national pride and affection.

16% of respondents valued Pakistan's Islamic identity, expressing pride in the country’s foundation on Islamic principles and its role as a Muslim-majority nation.

Patriotism was also evident, with 10% of participants highlighting their love for the country, its flag, and the name of Pakistan itself.

Non-Enchandee compliant. The reporter will soon receive a pick-up for reeducation & training

Yawn - Economic pessimism

An Ipsos survey released on Friday suggested that only one out of every 10 Pakistanis believes that the “country was headed in the right direction”.

According to the survey findings, optimism has “significantly decreased from 18 per cent in the second quarter to 11pc in the third quarter”, bringing it back to the levels seen earlier this year.

Moreover, optimism about domestic economic conditions has declined by nearly three times since the first quarter of this year, hitting a one-year low with just 10pc of Pakistanis hopeful of improvements in the next six months.

The above report was even more detailed but it seems to have been 'updated' about 3 hours back... looks like the editor received a phone call like the type below

Yawn - Massive oil, gas reserves found in Pakistani waters: senior security official

A substantial deposit of petroleum and natural gas has been discovered in Pakistan’s territorial waters, a cache so large its exploitation could change the country’s destiny, DawnNewsTV quoted a senior security official as saying on Friday.

According to the official, who is understood to be privy to the development, a three-year survey was undertaken in collaboration with a friendly country to verify the presence of the oil and gas reserves.

Some estimates suggest that this discovery constitutes the fourth largest oil and gas reserves in the world.

While talking to DawnNewsTV, former Ogra member Muhammad Arif said even though the country should remain optimistic, there’s never 100 per cent certainty that the reserves would be discovered as expected.

When asked if these reserves are enough to meet the country’s energy needs, he said it depends on the size and recovery rate of the production. “If this is a gas reserve, it can replace LNG imports and if these are oil reserves, we can substitute imported oil.”

However, he cautioned that it is a “wishful thinking” until the prospects for the reserves are analysed and the drilling process begins.

Chetak ji, Pak Army motto is "Iman, Taqwa, Jihad fi Sabilillah" (Faith, Piety, Struggle in the Way of Allah). Hence why the differentiation? All Paki Faujis are mujahideens. Just because some of them wear fancier dresses doesn't make them a lesser of a mujahideen.

For the More Islamic than Islam (MII or #metwo) Pakis, Mujahideens who die fighting are awarded the highest place in Jannat with their hoors. What difference does it make to collect their bodies when they are busy with their raisins?

^ For the paki army it is Taqiyya rather than Taqwa.
