Well the concept of an 'Islamic state' and 'democracy' do not match. Can anyone show me one Islamic state in this world which has had a vibrant democracy for at least a decade without any major hiccoughs? Islam and democracy do not gel and Pak should either drop the idea of an Islamic state or of democracy- it is up to the people to decide. It is because of continuous help from the USA that the Pakis could have a few trysts with democracy, but the very mindset of the people did not allow democracy to gain a foothold in Pak
