Re: Lawyers did not fight for present judiciary: Aitzaz
If they make a sathyanaas of the country like elected officials in the past have done. Look, democracy is bullcrap if certain protective parameters are not in place to prevent or minimize abuse. You don't have that in Pakistan. Its like Iraq. You think elections have worked there? That president is about as powerless as a pansy. Who's really pulling strings in Iraq?
Musharrafs done nothing special either apart from making a satayanas out of the mulq like them... The difference is, musharraf hum ko muft me mil gya, atleast we elected NS and BB...

The best way to go about improving things is by identifying the problem and finding a proper solution to them.
I invoke my religious examples here. Was the Prophet's leadership imposed or was it voted on? Every do takay ka maulvi can tell you that "democracy" is haraam, and then here we are demanding it.

so now youre using the Prophet's example to justify Musharraf's imposition on us? I dont event hink I should reply to that.

Don't get me wrong. I aint no maulvi. But I am a realist. Pakistan's solution, for the time being, doesn't involve democracy. It involves a smart-arse cunning politician with class who can keep everyone in line, and save Pakistan from being attacked in the "War on Terror". There are bigger issues than what Mr. Paanwala "feels" about Musharraf. Once the Pakistani public has some assurance that their votes will actually count and mean something, then you can have democracy. Once their votes are educated votes instead of parading around the guy with the most enthusiastic and emotionally moving speech, then democracy can work.

No, we've had enough of that dictator, and we want him out, we gave him 8 years of his illegal reign, and now we want him out. I dont care how educated we are, we just dont want him imposed on us anymore.

Right now, just take some poor guy off the street and engage him in dialogue and see how easy it is to brainwash a guy who hasn't gone past the 3rd grade, or perhaps never went to school. This is no joke; its a national disaster. And requires serious national rebuilding. Musharraf is utilitarian. Try mobilizing for social change the appropriate way, and this guy will listen. In fact, he'll be the only one listening.

What the hell has Musharraf done in the last 8 years to change anything except making the country into a crap hole?
