Allaha,Army& America...the three A's on whom depends the destiny of Pukistan.Well now we know its certainly not in that order.General Musharaf has buckled,and it certainly wasn't the Army or Allaha who told him to start behaving.
But where is this whole crisis going?let me quote from a recent article from Time
Can Pakistan's Military Be Trusted?
Friday, Nov. 09, 2007 By ROBERT BAER
With more than a little irony, even the Iranians are worried. "Pakistan is not a country, Pakistan is an army," an Iranian close to the regime in Tehran recently complained to me. "And it's an army you can't count on."
The truth is Pakistan is an artificial country, its borders drawn by British colonial administrators in a fit of expediency, its people hopelessly divided along ethnic lines. None of it mattered, democracy or not, as long as the generals stood shoulder to shoulder and held off disintegration and chaos — kept the nukes safe, out of the hands of radicals. Let's hope the generals aren't having second thoughts.
Spine chilling isn't it?
