Imran vows to salvage nation from US 'slavery'
2013-04-23
[Dawn] Pakistain Tehrik-e-Insaf
...a political party in Pakistan. PTI was founded by former Pakistani cricket captain and philanthropist Imran Khan. The party's slogan is Justice, Humanity and Self Esteem, each of which is open to widely divergent interpretations....
(PTI) chairman Imran Khan
... aka Taliban Khan, who ain't the sharpest bulb on the national tree...
has said that he will salvage the nation from the American slavery and restore lasting peace to the region, if voted to power.

He was speaking at election rallies in Karak and Dera Ismail Khan
... the Pearl of Pashtunistan ...
during a daylong tour of southern districts of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa
... formerly NWFP, still Terrorism Central...
on Sunday to formally launch the PTI election campaign.

Mr Khan told mammoth public gatherings that a "new Pakistain" would emerge after three weeks, where people would live with peace and the plunderers of national wealth would be taken to task.

The PTI chief said that after coming to power he would break the shackles of US slavery and would generate revenue by utilising the country's own resources.

He said that he would call back the army from the tribal areas and pull out the country from the US war to establish peace in the region. The military would not be used against own citizen of the country, he said and added that peace was the first condition

According to the CIA Factbook, Pakistain's natural resources consist mainly of internal political disputes. I'm really not sure you can call scheming against the other factions in your country 'resources', but never mind. If you can deliver Pakistain from Pakistain they should make you king.
