  • Discipline needed . generals are more interested in commercial property and lobbying for chairman positions in civil departments… wapda , nadra, pta

    • To malign Pakistan Armed Forces and its leaders is very unpatriotic especially when we are in state of war and facing enemy on many fronts. Supporters of PTI need to realise the gravity of crisis which Pakistan and Muslim Ummah is facing and resist from making disparaging remarks.

      • No one is maligning Pakistan armed forces, he’s referring to generals and generals are not equal to whole Armed forces. You can’t just make few individuals the armed forces

  • It would have been nice if the same treaty could have been made with Palestine. Anyway its a good thing that happened but what is the catch MBS the Saudi crown prince who totally relying on USA and his buddy Trump would signed the deal so quickly while still hand in hand with Modi. That is something of a bothering senerio but who knows what its worth.

  • Liars liars & only liars
    This is pakistani politicians & bloody military

    • Yes but: Coas to think. After retirement why WAPDA , NADRA, SUPARCO, PIA, all headed by retired military. None have any experience. They need go home, open up private business instead leachee. Rangers run Zoo in Hyderabad. Hyderbad cantonment run resturants, chicken tikka. Start barber shop, tandoor, kebab joint too. Then you expect to respect.

  • The fascist political party like PTI its followers and its Journalists should be annihilated from the face of the earth. They are the biggest enemy of Pakistan within. Each and every member of PTI should be eliminated whether men women and children simply coz they are shatanic cults. They should be dealt in the same manner like Hitler treated majority of Jews in the W.W.II. This is the only way to save Pakistan from terrorists coz PTI is not political but a terrorist entity with Zionist agenda.

  • Keeping in view democratic values ,this agreement should have been approved by Parliament before signing, as there are no democratic values in our country so it has to be secret document with some people praising it and some not without knowing it.

  • ایک جرنل آتا ہے تو ایمان تقویٰ جہاد کا چورن بیچ کر ڈالر کماتا ہے پھر ایک اور جرنل آتا ہے تو سب سے پہلے پاکستان کا نعرہ بلند کرتا ہے اور ڈالر کماتا ہے پھر ایک اور جرنل آتا ہے اور مُسلم اُمہ کا درد جاگ اُٹھتا ہے ۔۔۔۔پتہ نہیں پاکستان کی خارجہ پالیسی بھی ہے یا کراے کے ٹٹو
