Revenge Democracy. Musharraf better watch his neck or go into exile.

The kid looks scared - not scared enough though.

He’s too young to run and he doesn’t have a degree, so the kid can’t run, but remembering when Corizone Aquino won in the Philipines after her husband was assassinated, this could be a repeast of that.

Business as usual in Pakistan. While the “elites” settle their scores, Islamic fundamentalism eats the country.

Bhutto and family are corrupt. How else do you get to be the wealthiest people in a poor country? The military is the only part of Pakistani society that gives a damn about the average Paki. Not unlike Turkey, only with much more graft. Pervez ain’t a saint, but in a nuclear armed country with a nascent islamofascist movement, he’s the best we can expect. We get a choice among limited and bad options. That’s life. Deal with it.

you’re absolutely right. But we’ll take pro-Democracy over the terrorists any day, right?

I think this time Al-Qaeda and the Taliban overreached because they’re seen as intertwined with the military and Musharraf.

If pro-Democracy really means that, yes. Best to remember that the middle east is pretty convoluted and sometimes opaque to the Westerner.

Them too. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Musharraf try to cancel the elections indefinitely or more assassinations attempts.

Senator Clinton announced today that Benazir Bhutto's "two children" should have been named to succeed her.

What's needed is an all out campaign in Waziristan. Not that the islamofascists who have infiltrated the Paki military will allow that. Can you say BLU-73?

totally unrelated, but he is a Q.T.
I do feel bad for him though— being just 19 and away at college and suddenly you’re running for engineer on a runaway nuclear train. All while mourning your mom— arg....

Her husband is a crook. He might find himself in jail if he stays in Pakistan. She was pardoned when she returned to the country for looting the treasury while PM, but to my knowledge, the husband hasn’t. The kid can’t run for office because the constitution requires that he have a Masters Degree, which he doesn’t (Yet).

The ISI is part & parcel of the Army establishment,not distinct from it.
To: RKV
If the Army gave a damn about the Average Paki,the country wouldn’t have broken up once & most political & economic power wouldn’t have been concentrated in one province.
To: RDTF
Politics make strange bedfellows. Think they’ll live long?
