Damning video from Pakistan's own media shows #Pakistan giving State Funeral to terrorists whose coffins are wrapped in #Pakistani flag.

Pakistani military personnel are present during funeral rites led by #HafizAbdurRauz, who is neither a cleric nor a military officer, but a #US designated #terrorist.

Also, never forget that Pakistani military and intelligence agency #ISI harbored #Osama #BinLaden in #Abottabad even as Pakistan feigned allegiance to #UnitedStates.

NEO-NAZIS ACCUSED IN LONDON RIOTS

July 5, 1981
New York Times

[...] "The trouble apparently began when two busloads of #skinheads arrived in #Southall, not far from Heathrow Airport, for a rock concert given by a skinhead group in the Hambrough pub.

"Southall has a large #Indian and #Pakistani population, and the skinheads have provided many recruits for the #whitesupremacist #NationalFront organization.

"Many Britons were shocked today as they watched television, waiting for the start of the men's Wimbledon tennis final, to see film of a pitched battle in the London streets, with fire engines and police vans burning along with buildings.

"The police said they had no evidence that the white youths were members of the National Front, a small extremist group that has been accused of #neonazism but local officials said they were sure that the front was involved.

"'The skinheads were wearing National Front gear, #swastikas everywhere, and National Front written on their jackets,' said a spokesman for the Southall Youth Association. 'They sheltered behind the police barricades and threw stones at the crowd. Instead of arresting them, the police just pushed them back. It's not surprising people started to retaliate."

#Pakistani media blasts #Pakistan ally #UnitedStates over #Israel’s assassination of #Hamas leader Ismail #Haniyeh.

“Enemies of the #Muslim #Ummah, Israel and #America have always stabbed in the back…”

“Ummah” is the notion of a Muslim “nation” that transcends geopolitical boundaries and unites Muslims worldwide solely on the basis of #Islam religion

The newscast is in #Urdu and there are no English subtitles.

#Soleimani ’s assassination seems to have given a new impetus to the so-called #AxisOfResistance - the network of groups in the region doing #ran ’s bidding. This network is far from homogenous - each group has its own agenda.

These range from pure proxies like some #Iraqi militias and #Afghan and #Pakistani #Shia mercenary groups, which are the absolute creations of the #IRGC with little independent decision making power and ideologically absolutely line of the Islamic republic.

⬆️ 4 days after the hotly-contested #Pakistani elections, nobody knows who will form the next government

This is what a #MultiParty #Parliamentary system looks like.

"It's a fragmented mandate where none of the parties have a simple majority. And yet they will have to find a common ground or form a coalition to exist"

In possible #horseTrading, 2nd & 3rd place #PMLN & #PPP could form a coalition to muscle out the 1st place winner #Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf #PTI party.

AP News · Pakistani court sentences former Prime Minister Imran Khan to 10 years for revealing state secretsA Pakistani court has sentenced former Prime Minister Imran Khan and one of his party deputies to 10 years in prison each, after finding them guilty of revealing official secrets. Zulfiqar Bukhari, spokesman for Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party, says the court announced the verdict at a prison in the garrison city of Rawalpindi on Tuesday. Khan, who was ousted through a no-confidence vote in Parliament in April 2022, is currently serving a three-year prison sentence in a graft case. The latest development comes ahead of the Feb. 8 parliamentary elections in Pakistan.
