Ms. Benazir Bhutto has been killed (in a suicide attack allegedly) today, I don’t know whether I would be able to go to office tomorrow or not.
But the question is, If Musharraf can’t save second most popular leader in the country, how can he provide security to common man. If he has even little self esteem left in him, he should immediately resign.

Emergency Lifted?
Filed Under Politics | Leave a Comment
I saw the attached picture in the news today, it reflects quite nicely on Musharraf’s view of Enlightened Moderation (It should be noted that I am not against the concept of enlightened moderation).
Attached is a picture of police beating up women protesters in Islamabad on Monday Dec 17 outside a private television’s office.
If the emergency has been lifted, why is police permitted for such shameful acts? A news paper (Nawa-i-Waqt to be specific) says the honorable magistrate specifically instructed police to target journalists, is that justifiable? Had the police officials been punished (in accordance with the verdict of SC prior to Nov 3), these gentlemen would know some respect for the public (women at least)

Police at work for Musharraf League
Filed Under Misc, Politics | Leave a Comment
Today I received the attached photo with the following comments:
Police at work in Lahore. If you needed visual proof of pre-poll rigging here it is. The bicycle is the symbol of Musharraf’s PML Q. So much for Musharraf’s claims about fair elections! Every instrument of state will be used to ensure the results are according to Musharraf’s plan, his life depends on it as he knows he violated Article 6.
Even if we say the comment is exaggeration of political activists, isn’t Musharraf trying everything to save himself. He admitted himself on Al Jazeera the other day that he imposed emergency (and sacked the judges) because they were going to give their verdict against him.
My opinion is that, like any desperate man, Musharraf has started to put everything on table.
here’s the photo

I have not been writing my blog lately because work is keeping my totally tied up. But ever since Mush imposed emergency, I have not been able to concentrate on anything, and today when I came across the following column in nawaiwaqt, i had enough.
Here are a couple of suggestions from me (before you get to the column):
- wear black strips on your arms to signify your hatred for this monster (Mush).
- Post to your blog about it (better add a message to all the pages of your site (header/footer)).
- Change your nick/message in your IM clients to “Go Musharraf Go!” or something similar that reflects your hatred for him
- Participate in protests taking place at your location
Please, it’s time we come out of our shells, A good job, a house and a car should not be our primary objective. The least we can do is to wear a black strip and change our nicks.
