Multiple Battlefields

By Salman Mugsi • May 26th, 2008 • Category: Politics

Why Asif Ali Zardari has opened up multiple battlefields simultaneously is beyond comprehension and beats my altogether. With a single stroke, he has angered every body within and outside the coalition government.
By hinting at abolishing 58(2)B, he has perked Pervez Musharraf and by not truly restoring deposed chief justice of Pakistan Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhary, he […]

PAKISTAN UNDER MUSHARRAF
Government and Politics
1999-2008

Between November 1988 and February 1997, the troika comprising the President, the Prime Minister and the Chief of Army Staff ruled the country, reflecting the reality of a power-equation that in practice was not very stable. Despite the system’s parliamentary façade, it was understood that the armed forces would have […]



Burn the Robbers : New Pastime

By Gul Raiz • May 17th, 2008 • Category: Politics

While the nation is now screaming, kicking, weeping and burning robbers in their sufferings and miseries, the political figures across the country are busy in accomplishing their vested political interests and sweetly trying to settle their political scores.
While Asif Ali Zardari threatens his brother Nawaz Sharif with the boogie of Salman Taseer, Musharraf forces Zardari […]



Free Advice for PPP

By Dr. Hassan Isfahani • May 16th, 2008 • Category: Politics

Throughout their turbulent history, Pakistan People’s Party has thrived on “sufferings.” Their best asset and hard cash slogans revolve around “sufferers.” They have suffered through the dictatorial regimes one after another, and they have made it front line slogan in every election campaign, including the 2008 one.
Pakistan People’s Party feels uneasy when in the government […]

Nature of Issues

By Rohail Butt • May 15th, 2008 • Category: Politics

The most taradiddle and bosh argument against the restoration of the judges is that the nation is facing crisis like flour shortage, food shortage and load-shedding.
First thing is that these two issues are not related. They are basically not mutually exclusive, and by the way who is stopping the government to not act in providing […]



Under the Umbrella of Musharraf

By Ali Yar Khan • May 15th, 2008 • Category: Politics

Congratulations to President General (r) Pervez Musharraf that his operation for creating a deep chasm between PPP and PML-N has succeeded and he is now very much hopefully looking forward to first topple the government of Nawaz Sharif in the Punjab and then skin Zardari alive in the center.
Where Musharraf should thank his lucky stars, […]



Why Not Change System Now?

By Sameer Shaharyar • May 15th, 2008 • Category: Politics

Like the previous rulers, Asif Ali Zardari is also not seemingly aware of the old shenanigans in the new garb, and he is still talking rubbish. After his return from the failed London talks with PML-N over the reinstatement of the judges issue  he has told the nation that he is not much interested in […]



Poor pollitical judgement by PML(N)

By Johann • May 15th, 2008 • Category: Politics

The parting of ways between PPP and PML(N) is sad but all is not lost for the people of Pakistan. It is they who made this coalition in the first place. They should ensure that PML(N) gives outside support to PPP and PPP gives support in Punjab. They must know […]
