yar tum aik column likho jis mai chart banao har political party k manfisto ka or us per un ka kitna kam hoa ? jis jis ke pakistan mai choti bari koi pahchan hai political or non political. In your prospective graph who did good in their prospectives...

Make sense to me!

I don't agree with your opinion but this just sums up everything so wonderfully! And that would be a few balanced view coming from your pen. From a moderate watching Pakistan's masterchef....

This is simply brilliant.

Typical NFP. Downing everyone from left, right and centre with one satirical sweep. Btw, some 'moderates' and liberals are getting really upset about this on Twitter. Haha. Especially the Masterchef watching kind.

Pirachay, bhool gaya tu "The Jaded" ko cover karna.

the epic description of all strata of our society.... we are leftists, rightists, centre left &right, moderates.... but the segments which is really missing or have been cornered are pragmatists and realists... in all this mess our society as whole is caught up in a 'brownian motion' .... NFP- a great satirical piece, as usual indeed

Nicely narrated the situation and thatz what we thinks and do..

By the way NFP being a desi liberal himself, could not stop from commenting negatively on those who supported dialogues first. If they were really TTP sympathizers, they wouldn't be standing with military now. They simply considered negotiations as a viable option. Real hypocrisy is in those who blindly supported the operation and now not contributing for the IDPs rather still whining

@Waqar Qureshi kis ko samjha rahey hoo bahi??? there are no shortage of 'parhey likhay jahils' in our country. Now be ready for imminent bashing.

who are these people, not Pakistani. looks Caucasian

For the first time, I am agree with you (Thanks for not unnecessarily inserting Zia & Bhutto). Absolute depiction of each class and the serial (numbers not used) used, is as well spot on.

Paracha,never stop being naughty.

THANK YOU!!! DAMNN!!! YOU'RE AWESOME!! I've been saying this for a lonnggg time. The government can't do 10,000 things without funds and without being organized. Could the media please release editorials which explain that to the public? I mean the media has a responsibility when it comes making the country more civil.

Liberal or conservative, one thing is for sure : we as a nation are never content with anything. We want to eat our apple and have it at the same time.

@shuaib when terrorism and extremism are mentioned, Zia comes in automatically.

Spot on! The character of our nation thru a handful of sketches. Obviously some don't like what they see in the mirror. Bless you.

Only NFP can create such master piece. salute from India....

I think from your illustrations extremists seem the most reasonable.

@Waqar Qureshi False. You're falling for IK's line. First support talks with TTP, then when they fail call TTP 'Indian/Afghan planted agents trying to destroy Pakistan' - so you initially supported giving in to the enemy. That would amount to treason and out goes any notion of so-called 'ghairat'. The fact is that we're a confused bunch looking to pin our problems on an imaginary bogeyman because it's easier to swallow than the bitter truth. Military action is only one part of the battle, more than that we need to change our national narrative and ideology such that there's zero room for non-state actors and militancy instead of trying to distinguish between 'good' and 'bad' extremists (which is what the peace talks were intended to do).

And Uganda agrees :)

Its not only the Liberals but "Insha-Allah Masha-Allah" groups also. We really need to depend upon our own hard work and Allah will help. Remember, the the People's Republic of China, during the initial two decades after the Communist takeover, in 1949, much after the struggle for Pakistan started.

Excellent as usual! Your fan

The author forgot to add the grim visage of Nawaz with the " I just bit a lemon" look. And his twin's Shahbaz's "Who ?... Me?" look.

Sir Paracha You are simply outstanding, You have summarized my long and confusing thoughts in 3 pics with 3 to 4 captions. Lovely sir lovely

NFP through these cartoons has conveyed an important message to all Pakistanis 'You cannot satisfy everyone even if one takes the right decision'. So stop this hypocrisy and back your military to continue the operation regardless to what its opponents say. Both military and the civilian population will have to make many sacrifices before peace is achieved in Pakistan.

Excellent! Great description of our various manifestations.

@Ravi Dallas TX Watch out for those KKK in Dallas. They hate Hindus.

All of them remind me of Imran Khan.

Don't agree with the "moderate" part. Rest seem legit.

So true. But the malice is not just among the liberals. Any number of militants are doing the same. It comes with having the power to express yourself from some platform, any platform.

Good humor. The whiner portrayed as Pakistani Liberal is perhaps Ayesha Siddiqa.

Mind bogglig,, Only NFP hve his hand on pulse of this nation,,, v r the bunch of ostrichs hving head in sand for last 65 odd years,,, The character of LIBERALs shown superbly,,,, Hats off sir

Sheer nonsense

NFP...you are absolutely right.....

A good point but poorly depicted.

impressive projection...but what lacking???is the representation of realists.

These characters are everywhere, not just Pakistan.

Moderate is sleeping majority of Pakistan.
