#Thread: Nawaz Sharif Deciphered
1.
Those in their teens or early 20s who are enjoying their hormonal evolution have 2 ways of looking at Nawaz Sharif. Either the harmless looking wicked manipulator who steals & dreams to dry lease Pakistan to India.
2.
Get a grip children, he has been rich since he was ur age & no1 wants to buy a nation of 220 Million perpetually brain dead fools. Then there are those who see him as the adorable family man, fatherly “Village Sarpanch” who wants make Pakistan better & can do no wrong.
3.
NS isn’t you father, stop treating him like one, he messed up many times. Me & those in their late 20s have known 2 Nawaz Sharifs. One is beneficially despicable (BD) & the other is worth cautious support. The (BD) Nawaz before Oct 1999 took certain delight in
4.
harassing ZAB’s daughter & wife, jailing free thinking journalists, jailing journalists, activists & unleashed a wicked propaganda machine on Benazir (much like the 1 unleashed against him, wrongly imprisoned Asif Zardari thus denying his children the parenting of a father.
5.
My late nana used to say “What NS is doing to Zardari will happen to him & whatever he's doing to Benazir will happen to his daughters”. Prophetic. While playing despicable, NS deregulated the economy, privatized the banking sector & telecom, built motorways & improved
6.
Private Banks created hundreds of thousands of jobs; they supported small businesses & farmers via easy credit lines. Likewise the un-caging of the telecom sector brought internet & mobile phones in his 2nd tenure which created countless jobs & businesses i.e.
7.
the service sector & the middle & upper middle class owe their fortunes & existence to Nawaz Sharif which is why they vote for PML(N) in droves. Private schools began in his 1st term bcuz banks provided startup capital. You should know this.
8.
The worth supporting NS after 1999 appeared more tolerant & warm towards his opponents including PPP. He was more inclusive & consultative when he returned to power in 2013. He got rid of crippling energy crisis, took the menace of terrorism head on (don’t thank the Army for
9.
it, they could have resorted peace in FATA & Karachi before 2014 if they wanted to, but they didn’t). But despite winning 2/3rd majority twice, what beneficial legislation did he do ? Nothing besides the Women Protection Bill of 2016. No judicial or police reforms,
10.
no revisiting of Labour laws & PPC. The federal revenue increased but no attempt at mechanizing the agriculture or taxing agricultural income.
11.
Instead Team NS got tricked into allowing Military Courts through which a protest at a check post can be treated as terrorism & foolishly legislated the Cyber Crime Laws which were codified in Rawalpindi. Above all played a forgiving grandfather to an ungrateful thug
12.
& played thug with a regale woman in the 90s. I wonder how Nawaz Sharif feels looking at the pictures of Benazir & her children outside Karachi’s Central Prison visiting Zardari.
13.
Politicians r neither black nor white. There are gray. They should be judged for the number of good & bad they did. It is for the bar of history to decide if the good he did outweighs his bad. Me & my best friend (both children of high ranking retired military men) took tear
14.
gas & curse words by LEA at Bhatta Chowk-Lhr as the Etihad 777 carrying him & Maryam was on final approach to Lahore but I know NS is no philosopher at the level of Bismarck. He is just a rich man who strayed into politics because Bhutto’s nationalization robbed him & his
15.
family of their riches. When he got them he stuck to politics to do good & did some good but did bad things too. The best thing he did in his career even if he did for selfish reasons was slowly but surely push the center right traditional voter to the left & stoked in them

enough flames of rebellion which can to burn the colonial era machine & her blood soaked edifice which torments Pakistan from the shadows.

He is by no means finished & neither are we.
