The interactor Arjun is a cyber harrasser and a bigot. Please see his history on chowk as proof.

Re: # 35

Dear Chowk Staff,

Please delete this interact and interactor before this sociopath known as "arjun737830" starts linking his pitiful and unsurprisingly bigotted comments onto google. This sociopath has a habit of doing these things when he's shown up for the bigot he is.

HP #60 I think all three are quite expendable - they have been tried and found to be wanting.

urstruly #59 Alas! There is not an honest man to be found among the maulvis. In fact, the two conditions (honesty vs. wearing of islam on one's face) are mutually exclusive. :-(

#59 Posted by Urstruly,

You're right. What can I say? Just circumstances.

But these have changed. Wouldn't you say?

There are three main players in Pakistan now: Mushy baba, BB the PM in waiting, and the botox man Nawaz.
Now if something were to happen to one of these three persons in the next few weeks, where would the elections be? Can anyone figure out the turmoil Pakistan would be in after the disaster?
I think in terms of impact 1 BB, 2 Botoxman and 3 Mushraf baba
These ratings are based on my calculations that Pakistan is now open for a major event that would overshadow anything that has happened so far.

Re: # 58

The bearded whores of MMA could only enjoy the benefit of doubt until Dec 2004 when dictator did not keep his end of the bargain. Since these whores were also the part of equation what then kept them on for the next 5 years. They should have resigned right after Dec 2004. There were two other occassions to prove whatthey preach is what they [practice 1. when Hudood Ordinance was maligned 2. when 1500-2000 school children were massacred in Islamabad. Au contrarir these haramis turned out to be acting like those catholics who practice anal intercourse to preserve teir virginity.

#56 Posted by Urstruly,

Urstruly, that's correct. Yes, the 17th amendment was for the reason that mutarraf had agreed to go in Dec 2004 as army chief. He didn't, and how much can one do without guns against the mutarrafs' who have guns?

MMA tried to find a middle way to avoid martial-law back then (and you've seen how it came in when judiciary didn't comply this time), so it is unfair to place the blame on those who supported 17th amendment. It was just to get rid of these mofos any way they could.

Now that there're other people who 'do' have guns, can you please clarify your solutions?

The choices are clear. There must be a civil-society revolutionary movement.

If those are all khassis, then my type of guys with guns will run the entire federation out and drown it in a lake in Swat.

Ces't La Vie'.

[.. i would never vote for ... any democrat for that matter ...]

Anybody who votes republican in next 20 years is a traitor to america and should be handed over to zeemax for guillotine treatment...:)

Republicans are a bunch of Larry Craig-like closet-gays who thump bibles and beg for gay sex in public latrines... these people are a disgrace to the land of the free and home of the brave.... :)

Re: # 54

" because no one will give mutarraf and Chaudhries (and they shouldn't) a walkover."

This is the same excuse that was used by bearded whores of MMA last time when they legitimized their John last time and gave birth to the illegitimate (read harami) system midwifed by 17th ammendment.

#49 Posted by HP,

Chorro Saeen HP. We agree to disagree on Islam and Islamists, but I hold you way above any other in political analysis.

My only regret is that people of your calibre, have abandoned Sind, that great land, to the politics of the he-dogs and the she-dogs.

We of Punjab never give up.

#48 Posted by hamidm2,

Hamidm you want my honest answer?

The 'emergency' will be lifted, but SC judges will not be restored - and everyone will take part, because no one will give mutarraf and Chaudhries (and they shouldn't) a walkover.

That's the only way. I think everyone 'should' take part. However, they should listen to HP's brilliant gambit, engage in subterfuge, and bring on a revolution of civil-society.

The only other course is the LMP I'm afraid.
