So, Shah Mahmood Qureshi has finally joined Tehreek-e-Insaf thus strengthening Imran Khan’s support. Mr Qureshi has taken his time to make this decision. Parting from PPP and its leadership must have been tough decision but this is real life politics.
Promotion of one’s own self-interest is the basic instinct of human being and Shah is no different from others in this race for survival.
Shah has barrels of his guns pointing at President Zardari. He declared Zardari a security risk for Pakistan. He thinks that his past master has compromised with enemies. He has forgotten that this same allegation has been levelled against his leader Imran Khan.
Imran Khan is a greater security risk for Pakistan. He wants to negotiate with the Taliban, the sworn enemies of Pakistan. Can Shah Mahmood Qureshi tell us which is true? We must take things as they appear to the naked eye. In here, people change their colours like chameleon.
Politics is a dirty game and politicians make compromises every step of the way. Lust for power blinds even the sane person and they fail to differentiate between the right or the wrong. Two wrongs do not make them right. We must see through the veil. It is Shah’s loss and not PPP’s loss.
