Adil Najam
Not unexpectedly, the Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz Group) or PML(N) has decided to withdraw from the ruling coalition. Former Prime Minister and PML(N) leader Nawaz Sharif announced the expected breakup to a press conference citing irreconcilable differences on the Judges Restoration issue with the PPP and it’s leader Asid Ali Zardari. The PML(N) had already removed itself from the cabinet on the same issue.
The PML(N) leader also announced former Chief Justice Saeeduzaman Siddiqui as it’s Presidential candidate to oppose Asif Ali Zardari.
The move was not unexpected following the coalitions success in removing Gen Musharraf from the Presidency. The hope now would be that this might lead to a strong and active parliamentary opposition. However, the fear and the likelihood is that greater political bickering and instability will follow leading Pakistan politics into even more political brinksmanship.
Adil, let’s focus on your most pertinent comment,
The following events are bound to follow:
1) Mr. Zardari gets required number of votes and gets the president.
2) A dark era begins, where he’ll loot Pakistanis more than ever before.
3) Zardari Strikes a deal with USA and UK and EU to finish Pakistan’s nuclear program for heavy sums of money
4) Zardari in an effort to gain control of the nuclear and defense assets, replaces Gen Kayani and appoints some junior general as COAS.
5) The like minded elite, as mentioned above, gives required access to US.
6) The neighbouring countries start their interventions into Pakistan, and trying their best to disintegrate (Naooz-u-Billah) our beloved homeland.
I would strongly recommend that we wake up now, or it would be too late to stop this from happening. Zardari has a documents history of violence against his own family (Murtaza Bhutto, BB) and he can never ever be sincere to anyone if he hasnt been sincer to his own in-laws.
LONG LIVE NAWAZ SHAREEF!!!
It is useless to expect anything good from ZARDARI he is what every pakistani knows..he cant be fair his basic insticnts are corrupt.
> They did not even last 10 days without Musharraf. Now Pakistan goes back to the eye-gouging, useless and corrupt politics of the 1990
I have new respect for Nawaz Sharif
He has taken a stand on principle again and again and looks like he has learnt from mistakes
