Political Quandary in Pakistan

{"Now after a decade, the same duo, Benazir and Nawaz Sharif, is hovering on the horizon of Pakistan to contest yet another election.... You can install a political government by popular vote but there are no effective checks and balances by which a political government can be kept to the straight, narrow and workable path."}


Gill Sahib,
As usual, you have eloquently and clearly stated the problem. The issue is not one of democracy but how to get rid of a democratically-elected government once it starts misbehaving in the most undemocratic manner. Another issue is what to do about the much-needed, unifrmed, and welcome fresh killer whale that removes the undemocratic civilian shark but hangs around forever like a stale and stinking sperm whale.

Muslims would cease to be


So that's why the paki army is bombing pakis..to fulfill jinnah's vision..they've sure ceased a whole lot in the years after 9/11.

the the oppressive, corrupt and pro-Westerern elite and that people of Pakistan has come to the point that the two cannnot co-exist any more.


They can co-exist if one party moves to flint, Michigan...like you..

With a suicide attack on a Fedreal Minister today in Peshawar, it has become quite obvious that any set up that will involve this khabees dictator, will be met with deadly resistance. The Nura Kushti that the bezamir Khabees and khabees moulvis are doing right now is not fooling anyone. In other words the mortal combat between the the oppressive, corrupt and pro-Westerern elite and that people of Pakistan has come to the point that the two cannnot co-exist any more. This corrupt elite will have to become law abiding and relinquish its powers to the people of Pakistan or else get decimated.

The worst case scenario is like that in Iraq where the peons of West along with their masters have unleashed horrendous wave of criminality and violence upon the people. If this khabees stays, this inevitability is written on the wall for Pakistan.

So the choice entirely lies with that class in the society who has all the power and heavy hand above the rest; the choice is either to etablish rule of law or risk getting decimated for good.
