The life and contibutions of General Mush is worth watching after say 5 years when he will ceases to be the President.

He honestly believes he is the `Ataturk` of Pakistan but in this process he has done an irrepairable damage to the democratic polity of the nation. His rule simply has contributed the propgation of military psyche in society. That is very unfortunate.

What happens if falls sick or dies of natural causes or assasinated. Can one imagine the country reverting to civilian rule instantly?

the title of this article should have been.....``All that is wrong with Musharraf``....

if you want to discuss the KBD, it would be good to do a bit of research. To start...read ``Algebra of Infinite Justice by Arundhati Roy.
