i was asking about the charges themselves. but let me put this to you. it s very difficult for those of us outside of pakistan to adjudicate who is right, who is wrong, who is corrupt, who is in corrupt because everyone in pakistan is accused of each other of corruption and corruption is rampant. you yourself had to resign from the government a few years ago over corruption accusations that i know you denied. your leader, the former prime minister, got arrested for corruption. his predecessor was convicted for corruption. the current prime minister was indicted for money laundering which he was eventually cleared of. isn t ripened bipartisan corruption the real issue here? well it is a real issue and we are the only party in pakistan that has that as their political ethos and our entire party election campaign and imran khan s 27 year old struggle in politics is all anti-corruption.
targeted assassination? that s certainly what it looks like, right? and then in addition to that, while i was packing my bags to come here, a cabinet secretary announces he filed a legal complaint, as another libel complaint, against seven news organisations in the philippines, who essentially reported during a press conference about the corruption accusations against him. so, yes, absolutely exponentially worse, and if we don t take the right steps forward, you know. i was telling you, stephen, we are like, you know, the wildebeest in migration, the journalists are the first ones who try to cross, but the crocodiles eat those stupid wildebeest, and then everyone else goes on top of our the carcasses. yes, iagree.
