"So is Saulat Mirza's video legal?"
"Well I think we need to lay the bare facts on the table. First MQM did have considerable street power and the proof of the pudding has been that the party could shut down the two major cities of Sindh at a moment's notice."
"OK but the source of their wealth and power..."
"Has yet to be proved - I mean Scotland yards team has been investigating the Imran Farooq murder as well as money laundering charges against the party leader for four to five years now and so far nothing..."
"His passport has been taken from him..."
"Doesn't matter, there are no charges yet."
"OK but..."
"And the operation is reminiscent of 1992."
"Right but I have two observations. First why is Musharraf who actually strengthened the MQM roaming around free and second..."
"Musharraf's contacts are better than those of the MQM."
"Don't be facetious - you got to go with an even hand."
"The even hand has been displayed with Uzair Baloch accusing Zardari sahib or in other words Baloch is to Zardari as Saulat Mirza is to Altaf Hussain. Hence the invitation to join the Sindh government but one question: is the former President Zardari reading the writing on the wall correctly?"
"The former President has always maintained that he is a student of politics and lets be honest he has not once told us that he has got the degree though many maintain that he has been granted the honorary Phd degree from the School of Pakistani Politics (SPP)."
"Hey is this school under the Higher Education Commission as appointments there are as transparent as stained glass in a church - given that Ahsan Iqbal has zero control over which ministry gets what and is to Ishaq Dar what Abid Sher Ali is to Khawaja Asif..."
"Underdog?"
"Yes at least let Iqbal have complete control over appointments in the HEC."
"OK, so the SPP has what courses, lota politics, raid politics, bhattha politics..."
"Oh before you get carried away I have it on good authority that Raheel Sharif is now a professor in the SPP and teaches how to trump all the other courses."
"Don't be facetious; what was your second observation?"
"In 1992 we won the world cup...."
"Hmmmm."
