Re: The new Benazir-MQM love fest
MQM is playing a master stroke of politics. They received negative publicity after May 12 carnage. It was one sided. Most of the politicians like IK, PPP and lawyers gained publicity by playing victims.
This "alliance" should help them restore any negative feelings PPP might had for them and focus on the election. MQM had been under the lights for a while and stayed away from making any critical mistakes.
It's just politics, nothing more. In the end, they are safe. If Mush wins, they support him. If BB wins they are with her unconditionally. If IK only knew how to play politics, he would be mainstream by now.
