Imran Khan is a fan of One party system but he forgets that one party rule isn’t a solution for Pakistan. Khan can lead his party for 15 years at best, then what? PTI headed by Shah Mehmood with his Kids and PMl-Q elites.
Change is an evolution, Khan has to accept that in a democracy you must face your opponents. A free gorund won’t help but spread anarchy in the system. Democracy and education will strip off the goons by time.
I am Pakistani and I don’t accept this Shahbaz Sharif’s imported government.
Firstly, you should mention inflation has rised everywhere in the world even in USA.
Secondly, Imran Khan is not anti-india or anti-west but, he just wants equal relationships with every country. You should get your facts correct please.
Third: he has provided the proofs of foreign intervention.
Sandra, you have just lost the credibility of a unbiased content.
Khan is out because he don’t allow American to rule Pakistan anymore
Very biased documentary. He was never against any state, neither India nor America. He was in favor of Pakistan and wants to establish good relationships with each country. But you reflect very poor image of Imran Khan in front of world i think your policy is leading by current corrupt gvt led by America otherwise you didn’t show us real facts. Please be vigilant and responsible.
Moreover, more than 90% people of Pakistan are in favor of his government. IK never spoke against state institutions as before other political parties in Pakistan have spoken against Military. He always tried to tie up all institutes otherwise he could do all these stupid things for the curse of power but fortunately he didn’t.
Initially i was glad that you made documentary on Pakistan but after watching it I was furious. Please try to cover up current moments in Pakistan how citizens are protecting him against corrupt gvt who always go below the belt to harm IK. But youth is standing against corrupt imported mafias and IK os our last hope in terms of politician. Furthermore, you also need to show the world 13 parties gathered (not 2 parties) and stood against 1 party. We’re facing more than 40% inflation rise and everything is sucked just because of these imported tolaasss .
Well balanced report.
But military s role was down played.. unrest amongst the nation and
Victimisation han not been highlighted.
IMRAN KHAN 💕💯👍 IRON MAN A MAN WITH GREAT IDEOLOGY LOVE YOU
The whole nation loves ❤️ our great leader of All time (pakistan khan)
Correction: Pakistan’s most popular and honest leader charged hit with bogus terrorism charges by the Current Imported Government full of crooks, 60% of whom are on bail and have been bought in by U.S. regime change and facilitated by local traitors.
He has shown proof that the American wanted him out. Even the armed offices admit that the American interfered in pakistan but would not admit to conspicey. I am glad you brought this to the attention of the world. Although i would not agree with a few of the comment made in the program. As they have been highlighted by other
Shehbaz Sharif supports Joe Biden
🇵🇰🤝🇺🇸
Imran Khan supports Vladimir Putin
🇵🇰🤝🇷🇺
what is cryptocurrency how it works and who controls it ? is the future belongs to cryptocurrency?
Why is Germany not helping Ukraine to the extent it should?
Pti✌💗
Why Al Jazeera has suddenly started biased view against Imran Khan???? is this because of recent visit of newly chaired Crook PM Shahbaz’s visit to Qatar??? There is some not right 😉
Stopped watching this program in half of its length… Can’t hear IDOITIC remarks by so called Experts… Shame on Al Jazeera
We, the people of Pakistan, stand with Imran Khan ..!
Let’s talk about Kashmir please
Useless report against dear Khan, he never against or EU or even IN.
Anti India??? Are you kidding me. Have you ever heard any one of his speeches? He wanted peace with everyone
Biased inaccurate video aljaZeera u can do better.
After watching this video I do not trust this media outlet either. So many lies and Bs. I’m wondering if you do the same with Israel
I love pti 🇵🇰🤲
What a load of gobshite of a documentary
Imran Khan great leader
No doubt IMRAN KHAN is a great 👍 leader ever in the history of worlds 🌍 he is loyal to his country that’s why Army and other PDM parties kick him out of the government
Imran Khan zinda bad great leader great man great personality great attitude great career great leader great and other all theaf together against imran Khan
Most of this is incorrect it was obviously a foreign conspiracy, just think about it.
How did a family of criminals who have been arrested, stolen money, tortured people end up winning elections against someone who abides the law🤔
Please give a comprehensive lecture on civil military relations Pakistan.
Some of the information data used by the commentators is not accurate, that shows some bias, and a tilt towards Sharifs. We expect greater accuracy in dealing with current affairs.
Independent foreign policy, taking stand against corruption and enforcing rule of law are the main reasons for the removal of IK
General elections are the only solution to the Pakistan’s current politics!
Shabaz Sharif shame on
SHOULD SEE THE ECONOMY UNDER THE INSTALLED PDM GOVERNMENT
KHAN IS NOT ANTI ANYTHING…HE IS PRO PAKISTAN
All the politicians keep the narrative simple for the dummies. I will be anti-america when I come to power. Like it will magically solve all the problems, some even think it does. They do that, so no one asks them the real questions. How you will improve our economy, our foreign relations, and our jobs. Super simple tag lines for dummies. A country without foreign influence. Even if he is able to achieve that, there is no proof or research that it will actually make the country better. Many of them nawaz or imran took their notes from hitler and other dictators.
Establishment in pakistan play decisive role since the inception of pakistan. They have key role in making and dethroning of Govt in pakistan.
You haven’t complete the home work According to Imran Khan, foreign interference in Pakistan’s internal affairs was called and the government of Imran Khan was terminated and the proof of this was the two National Security meetings in which it was accepted that there was interference in Pakistan’s internal affairs. And the United States was also criticized for it
Every senseable human knew the reality of nawaz Sharif shahbaz Sharif maryam nawaz zardari bilawal fazlur rehman our army Generals journalists and the judiciary history and current condition, now the people of pakistan are standing with imran khan who have nothing abroad no money laundering no any financial blunders no any claims cases and convictions. While these nawaz shahbaz maryam hamza zardari bilawal political mafia cartoons have too much on their hands on their shoulders.
When delivering political news facts are what guarantee respect and a reputation. Although it is hard to differentiate facts from opinions, I believe that false claims and allegations should not be made without proper evidence. In this case the recent UN economic report can be taken into account.
Anti- country claims are a very big accusation this substantial evidence should be supplied with your claims
No the economy is good but the problem Imran Khan didn’t accept the demand of Pak Army and corrupt politicians that why Army remove him
PPP and PMLN is no popular parties he make not metro 🚊 but others project with full of corruption and commission stories and this project were make with a high interest loan every year that is the problem people don’t like PMLN
I guess time for part 2. half a year gone…
Fabricated. She didn’t tell where Shareef and Zardari money came from. All looted from Pakistan taxes.
IMRAN KHAN’s Islamic speech’s in public gatherings inspired People n no other politicians have interest in such things so he sweeps the hearts of people n he of course no doubt he deserves to be PM again n other Muslim countries supports him
He was about to make Pakistan a debt free country and 2nd thing military chief took instructions frome boos?
In side job
But with help of Good khan will be back in town sooner than later InshaAllah
Shobaz niwaz zardari biggest thif
Not trust this stupid 3 mans
Al Jazeera must look at their news, it seems either they don’t investigate the matter thoroughly or they have biased correspondents when it comes to Imran Khan. Imran Khan is an honest and spotless leader when it comes to corruption. To mention, he is buying and selling gifts you need to find the truth and if you dare to ask for records of the Tosha Khana(state gifts depository) then everything will revealed like a bright day. It seems a part of media had been bought that’s why spreading fake news about IK.
Pakistanis and indians use a lot “you know” while talking English
How she opened her mouth for withdrawn really gave an impression something withdrawing from there. Huh
He didn’t play anything he is honest so don’t paint him with the same you are all painted with 😡
Bogus analysis, wasting time.
not exactly correct. last two years of IK’s govt. the GDP growth was 6 percent. and about regime change check what American accepted today.
Reports from Pakistan missed some facts, Iman Khan was voted out of government but 70% of parliamentarians who voted against IK had meetings with the American ambassador prior to their voting
Idc about anything, shehbaz sharif is a really bad leader. We want imran khan. No matter what. Infact, ask anyone in pakistan who their real leader is, I guarantee you’ll hear the name “khan”. He wants to end slavery. What’s wrong with that? Absolutely nothing. He is the definition of “courage”.
Sheriff’s are most corrupted regime in Pakistan politics. They took power bribing other party’s.
Not elected by the people in elections in the Prime Minister post but by corrupted money bribing the beggars.
Pakistan is being ruled by two families who believe they are kings and rulers of this kingdom and their children are future rulers after their death.
Imran khan wants a free democratic Pakistan and allow people to decide on which leader they would consider or not. People should be allowed to vote and have freedom to decide which leader they consider. The people of Pakistan do not want to be ruled by dishonest and thieves. These two families who for three decades have stole money and are facing corruption charges.
Imran khan by the will of Allah SWT will diminish the evil taking over the gates of Pakistan. Imran khan is true leader and warrior in the eyes of millions of Pakistanis. He has many supports and people who believe in his views. His life will always be in danger and after all Imran khan is a guardian who will shield against corruption and protect the realms of men.
I don’t understand how all of the reports on international media about this topic leave gaping holes and omit crucial, very significant details every single time.
How is calling for a democratic election ever wrong when the other choice is the parliamentarians shifting their allegiance and choosing a new head of state, in a democratic country where constitutionally the people are the ones supposed to choose.
How is Imran anti-american for just saying “We won’t be involved in america’s war anymore and we can only help in achieving peace as we have already lost more than 70,000, been through a massive hit on the economy and the war spilled over to our country” which are all facts. and going to Russia for fuel when our economy desperately needs that and they were providing it at 60% of the prices. Should he have neglected his country and people’s needs just because America would not be happy?
How is he anti-india when he continuously calls for peace, asked India countless times to have talks with Pakistan on the matter of Kashmir, which has been the main reason for conflict between the countries, and he freed the Indian pilot who was captured during India’s airstrike on Pakistan as peace gesture in response to the conflict that India started.
How does no one ever mention the Cypher. Threats made by America that to Imran that he would face consequences if he goes to Russia for fuel, right as the no-confidence motion was about to occur. Isn’t that enough evidence to make the accusations of a foreign conspiracy, when many incidents through the history of Pakistan point to America’s involvement in the country already.
How has Pakistan’s economy “nose-dived under Khan’s watch” when it’s been always deteriorating for years under Sharif and Zardari’s multiple tenures and was already at it’s weakest as Imran was elected prime minister. And through covid when the whole world has been facing economical crisis and inflation, Pakistan’s economy has comparatively remained much steadier.
How is it still a belief that Sharif’s know how to govern after Shehbaz Sharif’s monumental, embarrassing and rather comical fail at economy.
The prices have straight-up doubled ever since Shahbaz came into office. It’s hard to choose whether to laugh or cry at the current economical situation of Pakistan. It almost seems like a dark joke.
Media needs to be unbiased and relentless. Has to show effort in trying to deliver the whole picture and do justice to the facts, as they control what people believe.
surprised to see such an accurate account of situation. Residing in Rawalpindi I can tell u this is amazing 10 minute overview of situation i have seen. great work ‘start here’
correction: 1992 is not the only worldcup won by Pakistan Cricket. they won another cricket world cup under captaincy of Younis Khan.
0:53, can’t everything be America’s fault when things don’t go your way. What about when your winning, is that America’s doing as well too? This theme is only palatable amongst the blind faith fanatics.
Kindly explain the unaccounted wealth the two dynasties have accumulating from core corruption,by bleeding the Pakistani public purse dry and amassing huge debts on the country whilst they became extremely wealthy and the ordinary Pakistanis is living in extreme poverty.
This has been going on for four decades, enough is enough!
Any who voices their concerns are “blackmailed”, or bought off,if that doesn’t work then they are “assassinated “.
Economy of countries like Pakistan control my IMF and world bank when US doesnt like a politician of that country they doesnt want to grow that country economically and everyone start talking against the rulling party but reality is different.
I would be happy to talk about media the western and eastern both who’s lying more I see that those who gone to Qatar World Cup and what they saying about it and the war over Ukraine
no research work madam.
Yes this is the point
The Jewish proxy Imran Khan has pushed Pakistan to rock bottom both economically n morally.
People are sleeping elections are rigged
Shahbaaz shariff
family Traitor 💯 traitor 💯 traitor 💯 traitor traitor 💯 traitor 💯
Yes and this is the real truth bro
Imran khan great men 💯
Hi Sandra,
Your content is so great and interesting and we really need it since you provide a lot of information. Having you for more minutes on crucial news/ issues. Touching a little of history for people to understand their histories would be great. I have watched all your videos up to date and cant wait to have more videos of the sort from you with more minutes such as 20 to 30 minutes.
Make us a detailed episode on pakistan’s economic crunch
There is no evidence that Imran khan came into with the help of military. There was a very strong propaganda launched against Imran Khan even before 2018 elections. Imran khan wants independent foreign policy. Your research is so poor and far from truth. You are playing naive like you don’t know about America regime change operations. Since ouster of Imran khan parliament is a ineffective and a rubber stamp.
I hope he gets back in there
Imran khan is the greatest leader in history of Pakistan. He done the best in 3an half year for the poor people of Pakistan. Go ask the poor people about him they will tell you the truth . The other two families has been rolling Pakistan for past 30 years and poor people where becoming poor and rich peoples became more rich then you can’t even think about.he’s the last hope for Pakistan and poor people
Bangladesh
Imran khan is small Machiavelli using excessive religious sentiments for his personal political gains.
No research work madam.
May ALLAH protect Imran Khan and grant him speedy recovery, and may ALLAH punish those responsible of such cowardly acts. because what happening is a farce made by American rotten influence, Pakistan 🇵🇰 people must put an ends to it by an early election 🗳
Pakistan army is standing behind this situation, because Pakistan army don’t want to lose power. Pakistan army is most corrupt army in the world consuming almost entire budget of Pakistan.
Pakistan army is controlling entire media, judiciary and all the law enforcement agencies…… Pakistan army is above the law.pakistan army is mother of all terrorist organisation in the world further more Pakistan army is mother of all corruption.
Corruption has and is a problem for Pakistan. Another problem the Armed Forces of Pakistan uses a massive portion of the GDP, percentage wise more than almost every country in the world.
Best wishes for IK puppets and crooks are not acceptable
What nonsense! Pak economy grew 6%.
The rupee was stable. Please stop playing this nonsense I saw the economy in Feb 2022 and the country was extremely happy. People were getting services they never had.
Why are you not talking about the Billions stolen by Sharifs and Zardari as in PMLN and PPP??????
so good looking
Good work
Khan is facing mafia but He will win soon
There is no alternative of Imran Khan. He is really a smart and legend leader who can only change Pakistan’s economy and guide Pakistan on the right way.
I was actually wanted this type of discussion that I found now
Thanks 😊
This is ! maybe the first time I can say that I disagree with “Start Here” episode.
First, IK did not make a choice himself to go to Russia or China on his own. The Military was on board with this. But later, the Military leade Gen Bajwa sold Khan to Americans by backstabbing him and putting all the decisions on him. Next the Military was never disappointed by IK’s term, because his term was the best we Pakis had in a long while. Inflation increased due to impacts of Covid yet it was 12%. Now under this new Mafia rule it is 50%.
The hereditary politics and political parties are not giving up their dynastic politics despite the fact that now the people of Pakistan are equipped with the political awakening and are not willing to compromise on their political aspirations. For this reason, they have rejected the dynastic political parties. Now they have decided to stop them from taking the reins of the country again and now instead they are standing up for Imran Khan who is a real threat to the families politics. Naturally, they have ganged up against the Chairman of the PTI Imran Khan who has now emerged as the most popular public leader in Pakistan. His presence as such is not being tolerated by the dynastic political class. This is long and short story of the political crisis in our country Pakistan. Only transparent elections can stop the worsening crisis in the country and nothing else.
Now that Imran Khan has been arrested, how are things turning out in Pakistan?
Propaganda starts at 4.25. Disgusting and false information
This report was super Imbalanced & totally wrong. Imran Khan Took Pakistans GDP to all times highs of 6% during the unprecedented corona pandemic, Business was booming to the extent there was a shortage of workers for several industries. The PDM Coalition Government came into power & because they were busy crushing the justice system & killing off the investigating officer in charge of their cases along with the star witnesses who “coincidentally” all died in the same way, by poisoning, they left the economy unattended. This spiralled the economy to where it is now, add the lack of trust people have in the corrupt coalition & there is no recovery without that.
IK was not Anti India nor Anti America, he was simply Pro Pakistans Sovereignty & Independence, he stood up to India when India Broken International Law when they stripped Occupied Kashmir of their right to independence & clamped down with attacks that can only be classified as war crimes. As for the America issue the Supreme Court Has a copy of the Cypher & that is clear as day, only thing he realised later was it was less America & more the former General Bajwa who was to blame for this America issue. Aljazeera Is a big hope we have in the muslim world, it would be really sad to see it take the same course of dishonest reporting as the rest of the media houses commonly known for such behaviour.
PTI Imran khan yahodi ajant ha tha aur raha ga insha’Allah tallha Allah pak PTI Imran khan yahodi ajant ko taba barbad kar da ameen sum ameen Pakistan zinda bad cepac zinda bad ✊💪👏👍
