"I like Khan the best."
"Right, he has taken on the Kashmir cause and..."
"Let me remind you what Bill Clinton said when 9/11 happened."
"I remember - that when something like that happens it provides an opportunity to the chief executive to emerge as a leader..."
"Oh, so you reckon Modi's administration has provided an opportunity to The Khan to shine?"
"Indeed, as did the Pulwama incident..."
"Excuse me, but the case of Pulwama reminds me of an earlier Indian claim of a strategic strike inside Pakistan..."
"That's right, I forgot and the then Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif never challenged the Indian claim like The Khan did and..."
"Don't forget that the army chief at the time was someone else..."
"OK, so the two key players but The Khan doesn't want to take all the credit and that's why he constantly says that the army and civilian administration are on the same page."
"Fair enough but that's not why I like Khan the best."
"Is it because he is going after those who abused power to amass fortunes and..."
"That too but you know he should not go after Bilawal who is making a lot of sense and let's be honest, as an opposition leader he is raising the level of discourse notwithstanding the verbal abusers - Sheikh Rashid and Fiirdous Ashiq Awan and the fellow Gill in Punjab and..."
"Ha, ha, that's true but that's what The Khan has inherited - a gene common to our politicians namely to hire the verbal abusers, and..."
"Indeed, but that's not why I like The Khan either."
"I know you are a fitness freak and The Khan has always been fitter than Nawaz Sharif or Zardari sahib and..."
"Much, much fitter, I reckon those guys won't be able to walk even a kilometer and The Khan jogs and..."
"Being in jail is no good for one's health..."
"Don't be facetious, you know Sharif has a heart problem and Zardari sahib has many health issues..."
"Right, anyway the reason why I like the Khan the best is because of the number of holidays he gives - four days for Eid while in the past there used to be three days..."
"The New Pakistan, hunh!"
