Re: BREAKING NEWS

I have no preferences about who ruled/rules in Pakistan. Whoever it is, as long as they stop the past cross border jihad, they can do whatever else they want. I mean, you are the Pakistani citizen, not me. So if you want Nawas in jail, I have no great qualms.

However, how can you say he 'lost his job' to Musharaf? It was a coup at the point of a gun. Nawas had won the popular election and had every right to complete his term. If he had to be removed mid-term, the constitutional and legal way is to work through the parliamentary system. I don't know whether you guys call it impeachment (as in USA) or 'No Confidence vote' (as we call it in India).

Supporting a coup which is a unilateral suspension of rule of law is what set the precedent, in my opinion, to all the subsequent unilateral self-preservation acts. You cannot have one and not the other!
