These days when we hear a lot about Imran Khan's opposition to drone attacks in Pakistanin the form of dharnas and exclusive media interviews, a bunch of "liberal intellectuals" just don't seem to digest it... I've been trying hard to figure out what reasons actually drive a person to oppose Imran's political stance so much? ... and without trying to generalize I've come up with following conclusions...
* Imran has been a notorious playboy in the past and even though its his personal matter and not his present, it discredits his political value ... mind you, other political parties are packed with saints ;) * Since the leader of my political party has bashed Imran for whatever reasons, I must do the same ... mind you, my leader is never wrong ;) * Imran does not belong to my ethnicity and I only support political party which represents my ethnic group ... even though we're talking about representing Pakistan here ;) * Since Imran treats fellow politicians on merit and based on their current agenda ... he does not have permanent loyalties, and often take U-turns ... mind you, "a true Pakistani leader" always holds on to his birth slogan, even if it turns out to be fascist ;) * Imran has been extremely critical of my Ataturk of Pakistan - General Musharraf ... mind you, Musharraf "enlightened" us with modernity and is the sole reason why we still experience "harmony" in this country, and why India is still "afraid" of us ;) * I don't like the fact that being a "Tanga party" Imran enjoys so much media coverage in Pakistan ... media coverage should be directly proportional to the number of years associated with Pakistani politics ;) * Political pedigree in Pakistan is weighed by how many years you've "served" in politics and how far your holy ancestry stretch back when it comes to representing a political party ... furthermore, how much capital as a politician were you successfully able to extract from the masses ... AND NOT how much you've served your country either as a cricketer or as aphilanthropist! * Imran support Talibans ... these are filthy outsiders destroying our country since the last 63 years, they want to bring terrible Sharia law here ... we don't wanna end up as aWahhabi Arab state ... we'd rather let Raymond Davis in here than Talibans! * Imran is a harsh critic of US ... why? ... whats his problem? ...

US has been successfully restoring "democracy" and "peace" all around the world and has given us so much since our birth ... the technology, the weapons, the aid packages, education to our children, jobs, their military helped us eliminate more than 30,000 terrorists so far ... sometimes they're so nice not to inform us about their operations in our own homeland ... what more does he want? ;) * My favorite elite journalists, bloggers and Noam Chomsky wannabe pundits likeNadeem.F.Paracha, Najam Sethi, Fasi Zaka and Mosharraf Zaidi criticize Imran Khan ... what more do I need to be convinced ;) To my dear Imranophobes, I DO NOT personally agree with Imran's stance on democracy, ... but for you I must pray and advice that you learn to criticize constructively and to appreciate someone's sincerity and honesty. Please try to put your ethnic and family-fueled political prejudices behind, when evaluating someone who has done more positive stuff for his country than you yourself ... thank you :)
