In the melee of pakistani politics it appears that there are only opportunists. First one is the 'marhoom' benazir bhutto who made a 'deal' with Musharaff that all corruption cases be dropped against her in return for accepting Musharaff as President and contesting elections in Pakistan (this was done under US pressure who preferred the Harward educated Benazir. Then after her demise her husband Zardari is not vocal in demanding restoration of sacked judges because that would remove the amnesty given to them by Musharraf and the judges might reopen the corruption cases against him. Hence "Mr 10 %" is silent in raising this demand. Due to this factor he is saying that he is not averse to 'cooperating' with Musharraf even though Musharraf hijacked democracy and killed the judiciary. Its only Nawaz Sharif that has refused to make any deal with Musharraf even in exile in Saudi Arabia(thats why the poor fellow was sent back after landing in Pakistan once). Even now he is the only politician seen for restoration of the pillars of democracy like reinstating the judges, freedom of press etc. He is also left removal of Musharraf to the restored juduciary. Though he has been out of favour with the Americans his is the only true democratic voice..
New masters must recognise America's imperialism. Otherwise fate will be harmful like American servants, Manmohan Singh, Mushraff, Tony Blair, Japan PM, and Australian PM.

how old are you ? i dont think this century belongs to your kind bldy commie.
There are enough skeletons in the cupboards of all politicians. These will come handy for Mush to ensure they toe the line he DICTATES.
It could appear a democratic or parliamentary decision, but actually it is the dark side of politicians that will play things as per the plans of the Dictator.
Do not write off Musharraf. He may be better than the politicians that the people have elected.
He will manipulate everything under the sun to remain President either with Nawaz or Zardari. If all the options are closed, he will be in Saudi and Bush will bless him. No past misdeeds or present dilema will follow him. Good luck Mush
A coalition govt must be set up. Gen Mush must be sacked forthwith of incompentancy. Democracy must be established at all cost. Terrorism must be rooted out.

Terrorism cannot be rooted out by only complete democracy. The Army is the only institution that can fight it if it wills.
The politicians will make compromises among themselves and the terrorists will find some political group to back them.
This is the problem in India too. And you see that we are also struggling in eliminating terrorism inspite of democracy.
PAKISTAN HAS NOT GIVEN ITS FULL SUPPORT TO ANY PARTICULAR PARTY IN THE ELECTION. PAKISTANI PUBLIC IS NOT USED TO TACKLE DEMOCRATIC RULING. RIGHT FROM ITS INCEPTIO N IT HAS OBSERVED MOSTLY MILITARY RULE. ANY GOVT DID NOT COMPLETE ITS FULL TERM. THE PRESENT VERDICT SHOWS THAT ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES SHOULD WORK TOGETHER AND FIGHT AGAINST TERRORISM .
