It's probably already in Chinese hands.

Sindh government has given permission for the rally

Hurdle cleared. Everyone knows my views about Imran, but he has a right to hold rallies (after getting proper permits etc) in any part of Pakistan. The MQM/PPP have no right to treat Karachi like their personal property. It belongs to all Pakistanis.

Currently the provinces are based on ethnicities. So you have the Pustoons, Punjabis, Sindhis, Balochis and Kashmiris for their respective provinces. If we were to further divide the provinces we would get rid of this ethnicity division amongst Pakistanis. Therefore I think it would be best for Pakistan if we created more provinces out of the current lot. Would cure a lot of problems.

agree regarding having more provinces

We know your views on Zardari too

A long and excellent article in the NY Times on the troubled Pakistan/American relationship. The article provides great analysis on how both sides have legitimate gripes against the other and that this view of Pakistan as the “ally from hell” is false.

The Pakistanis Have a Point

pretty good article the above one.

My friend in Canada sent this to me as well.

smalishah84 · 15-12-2011, 03:10 AM

Another interesting article.

A very relevant starting. The army's economic interests in the economy are extremely high.

The Pakistani army is seriously getting out of control. If they keep on taking all business for themselves, nothing will be left for anyone else to improve Pakistani Business and economy. I mean which foreign nation will trust the Pakistani military to export products into their nation.

as much as I hate this PPP govt I hope Gilani is right and we don't revert to any military rule again.

Enough damage by the military

I never want to see the military in power.

smalishah84 · 18-12-2011, 08:00 AM

weren't you the biggest Musharraf supporter

Fusion · 18-12-2011, 05:47 PM

I don't know about Agent, but I supported Musharraf when he was in power. I thought he did a great job under the circumstances. He certainly overstayed his welcome and once the media turned against him he had zero chance of surviving. He should have transitioned to a democratic system like he promised. Power corrupts though and it got to him at the end.
