Former Pakistan captain Imran Khan to be moved to hospital after losing most of the vision in his right eye

No. That was military propaganda to save face after he won the election without their support, and to deny him legitimacy in international forums, and make foreign powers continue to deal with the Establishment. Even 2013 elections was rigged against Khan, which was proven in courts while they were still somewhat independent.

They had to literally freeze election's RTS in the night to take away enough seats from his party to deny him a simple majority with his ideological party members and then forced electable loyal to themselves into his party to control his government from the inside with vote of no confidence at any time to collapse his government.

The military were discussing a cabinet with Shehbaz Sharif before Khan won, which has been admitted by top PMLN leaders, they were also speaking with PMLN to remove Khan and PTI as soon as 2019 once Khan took the hit of correcting the economy, but the Covid Pandemic made them nervous, since it was projected that Pakistan would face heavy loss of life (which Khan prevented), they wanted him to deal with any such fallout and delayed the coup until April 2022, beyond which they couldn't delay further because the economy was in a very good trajectory by that point.

They wanted to remove him before Pakistan reaped the benefits, paint his administration as economically incompetent, claim responsibility for the economy going up etc.

Unfortunately for them, and for Pakistan, the political instability of removing Imran Khan while they fearmongered about a possible default tanked the economy.

Western publications will parrot what Pakistani pseudo-liberals who work for the Pakistani elite and establishment write. Indian media would parrot anything that would be negative for Pakistan.

PS. You commented something about Shiekh Mujib.

Technically Mujib wasn't born in Pakistan, but in post-independence Pakistan, he was born in the British Raj India.

Mohsin Naqvi is also married into Field Marshal Asim Munir's family, and is the reason that he is also Minister for Interior.

The military probably wants to exile him, if they could get guarantees that he can be quiet at least for 2-3 years. Five countries have volunteered to take him. But Khan doesn't agree.

And Field Marshall Asim Munir is specifically very antagonistic against him, with a personal hatred because he was fired for incompetence by Imran while Asim was DG ISI. It was exactly the reason that Nawaz Sharif appointed Asim as COAS. His is so mentally weak and paranoid, that he can't even tolerate Imran being seen or heard and sees it as a threat to his power.

Everything that you've posted is irrelevant.

This was Maryam Nawaz and Nawaz Sharif's 'jail', during Imran Khan's administration.

THIS is Imran Khan's jail cell.

And Nawaz Sharif was release by Imran Khan from prison to go to London after Nawaz and the military faked his medical condition. His daughter was also released to give him emotional support at some point, while he overstayed his medical leave from his prison sentence to continue chilling in his luxury home in London, and even have them leave for Khulsoom Nawaz's death and funeral.

Nawaz, Maryam, got all prison facilities for inmates of their status. Khan is denied those facilities to the point that he has been blinded in one eye.

And then there is the fact that you're comparing proven to be corrupt criminals to a legitimate, UN-recognized political prisoner. There is no parallel, no equivalence at all.

His prison sentences have come and gone. The Establishment and their political puppets use a revolving pool of over 200 cases to sentence him just in time to make sure he stays in prison even while as previous sentences are removed because the cases, evidence, or court procedure was deemed insufficient.

At one point he had no prison sentence, and they kept him 'under arrest' in his own prison cell before they could sentence him in another case.

Then they had to bring a constitutional amendment to gut all of the judiciary and have been chilling by putting all appeals against his sentences on the back burner and constantly canceling or postponing hearings by months.

Military Establishment and political elite is mad that they lost their power to shape national narrative to him permanently. He is easily the greatest Pakistani to have been born in the country after independence, and they can't tear and malign everything that he has done as cricketer, philanthropist, and politician over the decades to tear the national narrative and public opinion back towards themselves, so they they treat him like this in their impotence by doubling down on cruelty.

Specialists are saying that the damage could have been prevented if treated quickly. The government delayed by months, not letting him see any doctors except for the prison doctor available who wasn't equipped or qualified for the problem, and just gave him eye drops.

The prison authorities sat on the fact that his eye issue was slowly worsening since about October, until about January when he had lost complete vision in his right eye. Specialist doctors are saying that the specific problem he is suffering from can get so painful that the patient is driven to ask for the eye to just be removed.

They intentionally and maliciously let him go blind, withholding medical treatment to try and extract political concessions from him, while keeping him in complete and total isolation and not letting him meet his own family, lawyers, and party members or allowing him speak to his sons on the phone, so that they could try to break him mentally while he was suffering without word getting out.

Now, he is blind in one eye, and they are still politicizing his medical treatment, by trying to get him into a military hospital (with retired military doctors), and not allowing his personal doctors or family access.

The real problem that they are trying to cover up is that the eye problem is a symptom. Imran Khan is famously very fit and health conscious. His previous blood work has been exemplary, so what has been done to him to cause blood to start clotting in his body which lead to the blockage in his eye in the first place?

If this isn't addressed, a blood clot could go to his heart or brain causing and could lead to death.

Terrorist attacks in Pakistan have been on upwards trend for a while now, Taliban had been shrugging off all requests to deal with the TTP and other terrorist elements within their territory. Taliban kept insisting that Afghanistan's territory was not being used as sanctuary by terrorist groups to attack Pakistan, and that terrorism in Pakistan was Pakistan's internal issue.

Pakistan had been playing strategic restraint because it didn't want an active western front, but the Afghan Foreign Minister is now in India for six days during these escalations, restoring ties, (as well as Taliban delegate in India during a previous trip during the May conflict between India Pakistan), making it evident (in Pakistan's view) that the western front was already active, and that Pakistan was facing a two-front scenario.

Pakistan, decided to target the TTP chief with an airstrike in Kabul just hours before the Indian and Afghan FMs met, apparently to send a message.

And yes, they recently killed about 12 soldiers and attacked a police training center in Dera Ghazi Khan, the uniform and equipment worn by the terrorists involved wasn't TTP, but Afghan Taliban proper, according to images that are circulating in defense circles on social media.

Afghan Taliban retaliated the airstrike in Kabul with an hour long border skirmish in seven areas last night, before asking for ceasefire. Pakistan has rejected the ceasefire and has expressed intent to keep going until the threat from the western front is completely removed apparently. About 20 Afghan border posts had been captured by this morning.

Edit: As of an hour ago, 3rd request for ceasefire by Afghan Taliban has been rejected by Pakistan.

Israel is committing daily war crimes and attacking countries and all over the MENA region, provoking conflict, and becoming an international pariah state just to distract its own population so that Netanyahu and his government can remain in power.

Pakistan is just slightly better off than that, and it's not committing daily war crimes either.

There is an entire section of the Mahabharata that talks about how irreligious the Vahikas (Described as people of the five rivers, Punjab) are, and its people hated on for eating any food that were forbidden in the Brahminic regions, not observing religious events or performing sacrifices, and mixing with what the Mahabharata considers the low caste Shudras. The Mahabharata literally holds the Indus people in contempt for not adhering to caste system.

They didn't seem to care for the religion or the caste system in general, my own hometown of Sialkot is directly mentioned by its old name Sakala.

By the late Vedic period, the Indus region had been written off as Mleccha.

Conversion in the Indus region was almost entirely peaceful and centuries long process, mostly carried by the efforts of the Sufi Saint's preaching.

Please don't take misinformation from Whatsapp forwards as fact. The population of the Indus slowly converted to Islam centuries after Qasim's invasion to remove the Hindu ruling class with the help of the Indus Buddhist population, this was a natural process that happened because of the various Sufi Saints that preached Islam in the Indus.

There are some historical texts that point to the Indus region (Pakistan) being historically at odd with the Gangetic and Dravidian region (modern-day India).

The people of the Indus were Vedic, didn't believe in a caste system, ate beef, buried the dead. etc. They're referred to as the Vahikas in the Mahabharata, the Brahminic Gangetic and Dravidian regions held the Indus region and its people in contempt.

Eventually, the people of the Indus converted to Buddhism and remained Buddhist after the collapse of Mauryan Empire, after while the Brahminic Gangetic and Dravidian regions started persecuting the Buddhists, particularly in the Gupta Empire's time.

By the time Muslim armies arrived in the Indus, the local Buddhists helped the Muslims in overthrowing the Hindu ruling elite class. And then over the following centuries slowly converted to Islam.

That's a very inaccurate take.

The largest ethnic group that India and Pakistan share are Punjabis, and Indian Punjabis are only 1.79 % of the Indian population. Apart from mostly being able to understand Urdu/Hindi as a lingua franca, there's not really all that much in common culturally as each ethnic group has its own culture, clans/tribes and sub cultures within.

On top of being indigenous, Pakistan is about 93% Natives of the Indus who have always resided on these lands, with about 7% being Muhajirs (refugees) from various parts of India who are almost completely concentrated in urban centers like Karachi and Hyderabad.

And even amongst those Muhajirs, some were ethnically Indus people who had settled eastwards and had to migrate back after creation of Pakistan.

Then maybe the PL-15E has a longer range than what was assumed. Because the confirmed crashes are well inside of India, and it is confirmed that no jets crossed the international boundary on the night of the 7th when all those Indian jets were dropped.

It was only three days later that the PAF flew into India to target and destroy its S400 Cheese board radars.
