Cat is Out of the Bag

I don`t think anybody in the world other than Pakis believed Musharraf had taken over Pakistan to save it from Nawaz Sharif`s corrupt regime. I`m now shocked to see some Pakis condemning Musharraf for seeking to perpetuate his rule. The scenes of jubilation witnessed when Nawaz fell was a sight to watch and would have led anyone to believe that Pakis were rooting for Musharraf to be the life-time ruler of Pakistan, as if he was the manna from heaven, the panacea to all of Pakistan`s ailments. If a country could rejoice at an blatantly unconstitutional takeover then, why should it complain now, when that move has only been made permanent?

Cat may be out of the bag, but billa is still in vardi.:)

Where is Romair?

Mush is actually a tin can which has a ``never expires`` label on it!!!

As per the very personal statistical survey done by his personal staff at the gun point 99.9 percent of the civilians want him around!!

This would please only his lackies whereas his sincere supporters would be extremely disappointed. Let us hope, even against hope, that it might be only a gimmick to reach safely to the expiry date as to allow him time to manouver his safe retreat as he did by bringing in SA, etc.. After all he is a Commando.

As for democracy we cannot import it from Britain or America. The best we could have was Bhutto brand or Nawaz brand. The available on the ground are Jamali, Shujaat, SA brands, all licking the boots of wady or the MMA type holding the sword of LOB on your head.

No he can`t!! Don`t kid yourself.

I was really surprised when Mushy made that promise last year. And there is no chance he is going to keep that promise. That`s just suicide. Without his uniform - mushy is nothing.

The real power in pakistan was always tied to the uniform and will remain so as long as pakis keep looking up to the man on white-horse.

``But what about the prospects of “democracy” in Pakistan?``

None! under Musharaf or in near or even in distant future.
The promise to take off the Wardi was, what it was; a promise! He will take it off when he is some day booted out.
Generals have learned a lesson from the downfall of Ayub Khan; you don`t take the uniform off no matter what or the guy you promoted to take your place in the army, the COAS, will skin you and sent you to Rehana and in Mushy`s case probably to Delhi. The MQM in Karachi is so pissed that they wont let him live in Karachi. Gujranwala is now controlled by Hafiz Saeed of the Al Hashish terrorist outfit fame.
So what is best for Mushy: keep the uniform or live in Delhi?

That was for Sunday. Will discuss it later after the hangover from last night is over.

Although I am a strong and staunch supported of General Musharraf and Shaukat Aziz, I believe this is one decision which will not augur well for this nation. General Musharraf is about to commit his second blunder (first being the farcical referendum).

Without any further ado, Musharraf needs to step up and show to all of us that he is different - different from all military rulers and different from all previous stake-holders. It is an opportunity of a life-time for Musharraf to show to the world that he credulous a person and someone who has no personal motives ...

Come on General...YOU CAN DO IT!

the cat was never quite in the bag to begin with.
