Until Musharaff leaves his seat of power , the suicide bombings and resultant deaths of innocents would not stop. Musharaff in a way became a scourge to Paki politics. If you honestly think about democracy in Pakistan , you would soon find that Musharaff has no place in Pakistan. Now these elections he had allowed and result he has been watching How come he still does not seem to learn his lessons. In a way , it is also possible to assume that Musharaff would stay , as long as he enjoys US support. Once US got fed up with him, or is of no use for their dirty hands , he would die a miserable death. Did not Shakespeare say that "uneasy lies the head that wears the crown" So is Musharaff. He is accumulating his sins, accumulating his mistakes all the while because of his power hungry nature. But the poor guy soon realized that power is like the riding on tiger. The moment you get down, the tiger eats you. Political life of Pak is beyond control of Musharaff. He could not keep Nawaz in exile. He could not stop fanatics occupying the Lal Masjid. He could not postpone elections for ever. He could not win Kargil war and so on .. But where he had been successful then? Yes , offcourse, he has been very much successful in making mistakes. Now Musharaff , by all means start counting his days.
