Re: People opposing Musharraf are secretly rooting for Taliban [split: Lal masjid..]
yet when the same ehsan bhai labels mqm as terrorists then his opinion becomes questionable. Is that it?
anyhow the local govt election was meant to be non-partisan but we had all the political parties form sister groups thereby making a mockery of the whole thing. i saw mushy on cbc the other day and he brought up the situation in iran back in the shahs time. said that the shah tried to bring in western ideals for forty years yet failed at the end for whatever reason. he sounded like a resigned man (i think the interview was done in 2006) watching how his attempt to wean the nation out the the feudal system since the raj hadnt proved fruitful, saying that if the people now want to bring jehadists into power through elections, then so be it. it is for this reason that condi and others are trying to bring back the secular element seeing that mushy has given up.
It's called a difference of opinion. I already don't agree with ehsan bhai on many things but on one thing we do see eye to eye I believe.
