the third possibility that you forgot:

3) she has guarantees from the US, and has been told that the emergency mess will be sorted out soon...

Masadi let's leave your abu little girl (your ami) out of it.

Masadi sahib, while I agree that the Parshuram should not generalize, what do you base your assertion regarding the 600 pound pachyderm on?!

Musharaff's speech seemed heartfelt. And yes, it takes chutzpah to quote Lincoln back to America (amused and sunglassed ikaaaan)

dm writes " He said that the third stage of transition to democracy, namely, the election of a civilian govt will continue."

The classic 1984 double-speak, enhance dictatorship to promote democracy, kind of like the US sloganeering continuous war for "peace".

When he said in urdu he consulted his foreign friends, that did not include the West, whom he addressed in English later on and begged for them to understand why he took this decision, even quoting Lincoln's use of emergency powers, with his hands trembling.....he has seen his end, the US is going to get rid of him very soon...

Masadi sahib, the record is clear that the US was trying to dissuade the Mushy till the last second!

Clearly, the Pakistani khakis have decided that they do not mind taking a chance at upsetting the GWB. The US is hardly in any position to extend any guarantees to the BeeB!

You need to give more credit to your own ladis (like the BeeB) when they indeed carry out acts of courage!

Kulharee: [Anyone sympathizing with them is a moron.] Do you realize that you just called tahmed32, a moron?

[All of Tribals do not belong in any civilized society.] Agreed. But the actual cancer has spread in to Punjab, specifically Lahore, and that is where this war should be fought. Just wait till Zeemax and Urstruly show up with their napaak fauj, etc. expletives.

[They need to be changed.] Pakistan is about to implode, and maybe that would change these illeterate masses. BTW, hamidm has reported that most Pakistanis are at some wedding party. He went to find how many are legally allowed these days at a valima party. As you know, this issue is very important to the ruling elite.

Neembu, the best part of internet restriction in Pakistan will be the pleasure of not listening to Masadi’s usual bakwas. Poor guy, on top of being the dumbest bas-terd is also an a-class loser.

Bubba...yep I did. didnt I?

That is where you don't get it, the US controls the "Khakis", they just want an individual out of the picture at the moment, and they are in position to use the "khakis" for that end if they so choose. The BB would never return without American guarantees, that I can guarantee you...

Masadi sahib, the US was telling Mushy for weeks NOT to impose emergency.

The US asked Mushy to not to impose emergency even YESTERDAY!

After Mushy did so anyway, the US has denounced it.

The US has explicitly asked him to bring in democracy - the Mushy has given no hint of it - not even lip service!

It is absolutely incorrect to assume that the khakis listen to the US when their own selfish interests are involved!

Re: # 42

Masadi Sahib, please refrain from these kinds of personal attacks

Kunkil,

Please refrain from referring pejoratively to tribal communities.

DM Sahib,

I believe that it is just frustration caused by prior issues. I think all Indians know that the country cannot take the next few steps towards prosperity without taking the Pkaistanis along. It is a pity that this is taking so long.
