IS MUSHARRAF GOING TO LET DEMOCRACY REING IN PAKISTAN?

There was an article today on the Washington Post that captured my attention and maybe the one of the people who came with me to Tariq Fatemi’s speech on Pakistani’s Politics last Thursday.
A week from the event where the former Pakistani ambassador talked of Pakistan as a troubled and confused county in search of democracy a quote from Benazir Bhutto, exiled Former Pakistani prime minister, on her intentions to bring an end to Gen. Musharraf’s military regime, just jumped off the page.
“I seek to lead a democratic Pakistan that is free from the yoke of military dictatorship,” said Bhutto. “We have problems with Gen. Musharraf because he is a coup leader.”
Then why I say don’t they let her come back in the country so that the turmoil caused by Pakistanis’ hater for Musharraf’s military regime could end for once and for all?
The Pakistan People Party has been dealing with Musharaff for a long time so that she could come back in the county, but he has been taking his sweet time!
What would it happen then? Who knows? We should ask the Pakistanis who took over Lal Masjid to show Musharraf their disagreement of his non-represented regime??

p.s. If you didn’t know who Benazir Bhutto is…here you go: She was the first woman to lead a post-colonial country and later nominated Prime Minister of Pakistan in 1988. She has been charged with flagrant corruption during this term. She was then re-elected in 1993, but dismissed for corruption 3 years later. In 2006 she was arrested and she has been in self-exile in London ever since.

Cheers,
Fede~(the Italian, once again)
