PTI is the only party I would vote for if i could vote :) even though I have serious concerns about their lack of coherent plans, but that seems to be the norm. make plans and policies once u get in power.
religious barracks showed their lack of substance in NWFP. if they cant run that province how can we expect them to run the country.
Aap ka vote dala jayeega aur zaroor dala jayeega jaisa kay yeh aaj tak dala jata raha hia aur aap kay farhisto ko bhi khabar na ho gi kay aap ka vote dala gaya hia!
I am myself leaning towards PTI, as for the religious barracks they are all befuddled but am hopeful they might find a voice of pragmatism along with religion. In fact that is why i am leaning towards PTI, it can stem i hope the religious frenzy and the moderation craze.
no fraudia ji, but i’m sure there are a couple of fairly talented ladies around in GS politics who have balanced views. but they don’t post often, which is good. :halo:
So far he is a one man show. He needs strength from educated middle class people from all over the country. He needs to build a team of his own. And i think former players, teachers, lawyers intellectuals should join him and give him the power.
regime change is desired by a number of players for their own interests. geographical interests, personal political power, etc etc
people in the country have no real motivation to do much about getting rid of musharraf.
its fairly evident from the cool response all political leaders have recieved over the last year or so. yes many ppl are unhappy but its not even close to how unhappy ppl were during the terms of BB and Nawaz for example. In the greater scheme of things - people in the country did not care. contrary to wat political pundits and opposition party ppl would say.
conditions need to be created to create a sense of destabilization to force either musharraf to step down, to share power..(thus all the backdoor deal discussion with BB) or to give up power and thus BB etc get in power, or even be over thrown by another military officer who could be more pliable.
**** like this does not happen overnight and that whole 'lawyer' protests were not organic, they fully had the puppet masters of political parties pulling the strings. ..and who is pulling the puppet masters strings? ....well that is a whole diff issue.
What happened in karachi appears to be an attempt to shock the nation into looking for change. i mean 40 people...in mid 90s 40 ppl died pretty much every few days anyways. some weeks there were hundreds of ppl killed.
Of all the posts and threads opened on the subject where people flaunted their closet racism, immaturity, and stupidity, this is by far the most intelligent and deep post on the issue.
It's a damn shame 3000+ miles is not enough distance for some to get a bigger, distant perspective on things as they continue their petty bickering and racist vendettas.
