Though from the Indian stand point Mush was not a friend, but we must give him credit for his stand against terrorism and the conduct of a free and fair election, even to his own peril. Now the Pakis have voted out a man who saved them from certain US bombing post 9/11, and this is certain to fuel Islamic extremism in pakistan. The political party/ parties which come to power will soon engage in a game of one upmanship after impeaching Mush, and are bound to give a free reign to the extremists just to stay in power. This is indeed a very dangerous period for India, and terrorism across the border is bound to increase with open state support from across the border. The worl also need to keep a close eye on happenings in Pakistan. Mush is certainly preparing to live a life of exile somewhere in the West.
