Following the targeting to Aaj TV station during the May 12 riots in Karachi, Gen. Pervez Musharraf gave an exclusive long interview to Talat Hussain and Aaj, much like he had given an interview to Geo after the attack on Geo. Here is a how it went.
Thanks to Saad for putting this on YouTube and sharing.
Dear Readers,
While All Things Pakistan has remained alive and online, it has been dormant since June 11, 2011 - when, on the blog's 5th anniversary, we decided that it was time to move on. We have been heartened by your messages and the fact that a steady traffic has continued to enjoy the archived content on ATP. While the blog itself will remain dormant, we are now beginning to add occasional (but infrequent) new material by the original authors of the blog, mostly to archive what they may now publish elsewhere. We will also be updating older posts to make sure that new readers who stumble onto this site still find it useful.
We hope you will continue to find ATP a useful venue to reflect upon and express your Pakistaniat. - Editors
“Main demag-less admi nahi” in the third video that was funny. :D
If it walk like a duck, talks like a duck, it is a duck. No matter how hard he tries he can’t cover himself in statesmanship. He was and still is a dictator. After all those killings by MQM men just shocking that he still has a soft side for them.May the soul of all the 5/12 victims rest in peace.
I would like to call General Musharraf “General Munh Shut Up” after the excuses he gave for 12 May.

has everyone forgotten Nawaz and Benazir’s time when we had non – stop killings in Karachi all the way from 1986 to until Musharraf took over. Have we forgotten Nasrullah Babar and how him and his teams of “encounter specialists” took over Karachi and the non stop violence slowed down a bit because the criminals ran from Karachi because of fear?
How many people here remember the PECHS killings where the killers entered and killed an entire family in execution style – women , children , young men ?
How many have forgotten the eids we spent in karachi where the imambargahs and mosques had armed guards on the roofs because they had been a non stop spate of killings in the mosques and imambargahs ?
I am not saying Mushahharaf is better, all I am saying can we chose the lesser of all evils ?
