“Everything will become crystal clear between Sept 15 and Oct 15 this year and this includes a deal with PPP chairperson Benazir Bhutto,” he said while replying to questions at a news conference here on Friday, without elaborating.

did Ayub or Yahya destroy anything. Of course not.

Re: Who would have thought...? II

we arrive in the 50s and why Gen Ayub Khan meddled in. He was made a cabinet minister by the civilian democratic leaders and involved him in a lot of things.

Factually incorrect Haris, Governor General GM and Maj (retired) Iskandier Mirza may have been semi civilians but they were not democrats and not politicians. They were establishment people

It's the destroy versus steal approach of many Pakistanis..killing ones citizens is acceptable, and eventually forgivable..being perceived as corrupt is not..(unless you are a supporter of those who kill)

It took 9 months to get rid of Ayub once the movement started against him and a few months to get rid of Zia after he staged the ojhri camp drama. I am sure mush will go much earlier.

But Zakk, werent Ghulam and Iskander both civilians and involved in political affairs of the country as democratically or undemocratically as they were. Plus they were part of an establishment that was supposedly accepted as democratic as per whatever democracy we had known at the time.

Also, while talking of him, I wanted to confirm abt Iskander Mirza's title of Maj Gen. He was bestowed the honorary rank right? becaue i dont thik he was a military Gen? Im not sure, do pls confirm Zakk.

A few months ago they said Mushraraf would be gone by this time. He is still very much here, and the likes of BB and probably other sections of the opposition parties are negotiating with him to get a share of power. He ain’t going anywhere it seems.
