2013: Start moved to Pakistan (DIEEE11-2013)

 2013 has shaken the news landscape of Pakistan due to several emerging issues: the attempt to create a mass movement by a religious leader, willing to fight corruption in the political system; the arrest order issued by the Supreme Court against the Prime Minister, on corruption charges; the conditional ceasefire offered to the government by the Thereek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), and the death of the pro-government Taliban leader Mullah Nazir; skirmishes between Indian and Pakistani forces in the Line of Control that divides Kashmir; or the imposition of the Governor Rule by the Federal Government in Balochistan. This paper attempts to establish a framework, allowing the reader to understand all these issues in their proper context, relating them to the dynamics of the country. It is not its goal to answer all the brought up questions which, like happen with many other facets of Pakistan, would be almost impossible to be answered here.
