Re: # 64

GT,

... stop getting excited ... this emergency shemergency thing is business as usual in pakistan .... nothing is going to change as i said in my post below ..... i talked to my sister and she said nobody has cancelled any weddings, the naukarani showed up for work as usual and zeetv is still on air .....

It seems that:

1. The dictator is not under house arrest.

2. The Pentagon (if not the entire US admin.) supports this emergency.

3. There won't be much opposition from the moderates.

4. Pure terror will be unleashed in swat etc., the ability of the press to report on this will be drastically curtailed.

It is true that:

(a) Lawyers. human rights activists etc. cannot lead a movent against a dictator without popular support. HOWEVER, what these guys have done, and are still doing, is extremely useful for the ongoing fight for democracy in Pakistan. Today, the fight is against the army but tomorrow it may well be against the dictatorship of the Lal Masjid Party.

(b) The fight today is between the army (US) and the militants. The army is viewing the lawyers etc. as minor irritants. Even if the press reportage on the forthcomming carnage in the tribal areas is going to be minimal, there is no certainty of the army winning the fight. Watch the stock market. If there is capital flight then be prepared to welcome the LMP into power.

Give hope of Roti Kapra Makan
Sarak Bijli & paani
not this bunch rich urban likes so feudal useless citizens





Lawyers And Judges of India And Pakistan & INDIA are oppointed convenveniently by the party in power .
BJP govt in its stint filled the judgs and defending &prosecuting lawyers with rss and VHP leaning of them.
Even now Judiciary in India is Mockery despite being so called democracy.It is just another arm perpetuating corruption opression bias & rascism

Dont They nic name Lawers as LIARS....

After all what do they do for common citizens
Do the produce any thing except verbal diarroea and reems of paper documents.A farmer and Soldier are ral citizen for the god of country these theorists should be exiled after al no one will miss them .

#61 Skeptical the cyber jehadi think if you were in this state for 60 loong yrs as Kasmiri.

Yaar right now the question in front is of different nature. Its about fundamental rights of people...I see the point you are making through the picture but here much more is at stake……
So if some fundos are destroying our rich cultural heritage, you think there is justification for Musharraf to purge judiciary, abuse human right activists and exert state brutality on lawyers…
If ordinary person due to his subsistence living is not taking to the street does that mean it is an endorsement of what is being done…..
There are certain matters which may not immediately affect our day to day living, but they are important because you never know when the contingency may arise in future. The central question is that Judiciary has been purged and with that common man has lost recourse in case his fundamental rights are usurped. Pakistan has become effectively a police state with no semblance of any justice for the people. For any one who supports this scenario and endorses Musharraf on the pretext that he is a viable option or for that matter liberalism’s pragmatic hope unfortunately does not even know what liberalism is all about. We Pakistanis are made to understand by the elite of this country that the only way of living in this country is to keep ourselves depoliticized and turn our eye blind to the question of fundamental rights. Just live our lives and pray that we do not have an encounter with law enforcement agency-because if we do, there is absolutely no hope for our survival. The recourse is no longer there. And you are actually relishing that judiciary has been purged, calling lawyers names and flaunting lack of common man’s protest as evidence that what ever has happened has happened for the best!!!

getting excited over nothing

..... i don't know what everyone is getting excited about and pissing in their pants ..... this is what will happen:

I had predicted long before today's decision restoring the CJ to his office, that this crisis, manufactured by the Americans, using the Pakistan Army in order to punish Musharraf, will lead to its logical end, i.e. a decision against Musharraf. The fools among the people will say that this is a historic moment for Pakistan, something is changing and the Army is losing its authority. Wrong answer, and utopian dreams. The Army is still in charge, Musharraf is losing authority (two different things), because he has lost American support (the main difference between the two).

Don't interpret me wrong. I am not for Musharraf, the sob will get what he deserves soon but these adjustments by the Americans only harm Pakistan and Pakistanis and do not benefit it. The same judiciary that has before always legitimized military rule in Pakistan, cannot change overnight because a CJ took some meds that enhanced the size of his b****. No that is not the case, without military backing this crisis wasn't possible, without military backing this decision was not possible. Now the poor bas**** Musharraf, like I said earlier is running helter skelter like a trapped mouse, one crisis after another. America is leaving no options open for him except for his resignation and a quick sub lease of the Mian's summer home in Saudi Arabia, or a hellfire, with the finger prints of a Mullah, aimed right for his a$$. He knows it, he is scared but he is also stupid, he thinks that somehow he will manage to escape from it all, keep the uniform and keep the presidency and redevelop his relationship with the Americans.....wont happen...

p.s to this tahmed the peon of the West added that I should do my job and go and fetch samosas for the faculty at government college...

Over time peons develop the illusion that they are indispensible and independant, the US doesn't deal with such peons, it replaces them with new ones. In this case it has to do with the upcoming Iran war and Musharraf didn't deliver, the new chief will after a brief "democracy" period.
