does this mean that CJ actually supported Musharaf in 2005?
He was PCO judge until PCO part 2 was released :D
I believe, Qazi Hussain Ahmad and Imran Khan should not give up so quickly.
Long March fails: Qazi
JAMAAT-E-ISLAMI Pakistan ameer Qazi Hussain Ahmad reiterated that long march had failed to achieve its prime objectives because judiciary was not restored at Nov 2, ‘07 state and Justice Abdul Hameed Dogar was kept in service despite restoring the Chief Justice Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhry and other deposed judges.
“Our agreement with lawyers clearly spelt that long march would continue till the restoration of judiciary at Nov 2, ‘07 position by reversing Gen Musharraf’s unconstitutional actions,” he said while addressing different delegations at Mansoorah on Thursday.
Qazi Hussain Ahmad demanded that Gen Musahrraf’s unconstitutional actions must be reversed and he must be punished for breaching constitution twice in order to bring a real revolution in the country to break the shackles of the colonist legacy of bureaucracy and to install the rule of the masses in real terms.
He said lawyers’ leadership compromised with the government on mere restoration of judges without consulting JI leadership, adding that JI had to accept it to maintain harmony. He said ‘our objective is yet to be achieved and we have only moved one step ahead’. He said thousands of JI workers had resisted the police all over the country while the state machinery had sealed entire country and Islamabad to prevent the long march. He said JI people were disappointed after the march was called off at the eleventh hour when it was the time to reach Constitution Avenue for the sit-in.
Re: CJ Restoration could be "the biggest let-down in history"?
Qazi is right in a way, PCO of Nov 2007 provides safety to Mushy, so what was the point of reinstatement of CJ if he can't act against Mushy? Until that PCO is struck down this victory was more symbolic than anything.

It appears symbolic. Iftikhar Chaudhary himself is a product of PCO? Would he be worried if CoD is implemented to the letter? It appears Qazi is right?
