"Politicians don't ever say sorry and the higher up in the political hierarchy the more unlikely an apology."
"Well, technically Farhatullah Babar was correct, I mean the rangers are not empowered to go after corruption only terrorism and..."
"There is a linkage between corruption and terrorism, or so the rangers are likely to argue."
"The Taliban fund terrorism, I heard political parties fund militias - there is a difference you know."
"Don't be facetious anyway I think discrediting a political party's leadership wont lead to its political demise as we have seen time and again but what was interesting was the Prime Minister's decision to cancel his meeting with former President Zardari and so..."
"And so you reckon the PML-N is in trouble? The Khan needs to get Zardari sahib as well as the MQM on his side - and I don't know whether he has the capacity to be successful in such efforts..."
"Zardari sahib has that capacity."
"Agreed though not likely, not at present! Anyway when I referred to politicians never saying sorry I was referring to MQM's demand that Khawaja Asif apologises for his accusatory remarks against the MQM, and Altaf bhai has resigned as party leader as a consequence and..."
"If only party leaders would resign if a member of another party makes allegations against him or his party! I mean by that logic none of the party leaders would hold the leadership of their party! Not Zardari sahib, not Mian sahib, not the Khan, not the Maulana, not...
"Don't be facetious."
"It's true. I reckon Altaf bhai has in recent years dealt with Urdu speakers like Musharraf or Sindhi waderas, Punjabis are different - we don't know how to say sorry - Khawaja Asif was reportedly wearing a dhoti roaming the streets of Sialkot and has refused to apologise."
"Ha ha ha."
"So now what will happen?"
"Nothing is for ever in politics, especially in our country but I am pretty sure that Zardari sahib will strike against Mian sahib at an appropriate time and that time would be well before the next elections."
"Agreed!"
