Re: Musharraf will not be in office by this time next year.
and therein amongst all these sane, "shades of grey", "what other alternatives do we have" kind of civilized debate lies the curse of pakistan these days. I am guilty of it too. Can't see any decent alternative so we settle for the least of the rascals and mal administration.

The lal masjid crowd is roaring to a sore. The cacaphony of yesterday's traitors and today's partnerships across lands is deafening, lines between the 'elite' corps in power are blurring...the choices ofr a basically decent man thrust into a fundamentally indecent position is being as destiny.
When you cannot distinguish between being the hunter and the hunted you are both it would seem, but remember the hunters only win, the hunted die.
It is a very grave situation indeed when we all sense, though with a pang of regret and a tear for a decent man, that whether status quo or regime toppled over, the country is ....scewed!
