Every Expression of People’s will is against the establishment
One thing I have learnt in politics of Pakistan is that , every expression of spirited will of people is always against the establishment of Pakistan. There has always been a difference between expression of people of Pakistan and rent-a-crowd meetings by the establishment. Today what we are seeing in Lahore is same what we saw in Karachi on 18th October 2007. One can compare these massive and highly sipirited people with the rent-a-crowd of Pervez Musharraf , or the violent crowds of “Tahreek-e-Nizam-Mustafa” and see the difference.
This is for the first time in the history of Pakistan that PPP is standing at the wrong side of court. There is no doubt that this is the political battle between the two political parties unfortunately however in the absence of BB, Nawaz Sharif is just too good for PPP , for the first time again in the history of Pakistan PPP has to rely on the support of “Power of Gun” (the Fox) insead of the people of Pakistan. It reminds me 1991 , when BB being chanllenged by the Chief Minister of Punjab Nawaz Sharif (with Army on his back) , refused to accept conditions from establishment to keep ruling the country. Can Asif Zardari do the same ?
Let us make few things very clear , There is no question that army feels pretty much secure from several fronts in the current situation.
1. They have successfully made amends with the disgruntled jihadi mullahs and MMA (Mullah Military Alliance) is now as solid as it was during the hay days of 80’s. By making Mad Dictator as an escape goat, and giving the ample share to muallahs from the booty from USA/NATO money , they feel absolutely secure on this front. Just look at the year 2007 and early 2008 when they were under furious attack from the jihadi mullahs even in SSG headquarters and ISI head quarters.
2. It is amazing when the so-called political analysts talk about NRO as only hurdle in restoration of Judiciary specially CJ Iftikhar Chaudary, conveniently ignoring the real reasons for the dismissal of CJ IMC on both 9th of March 2007 and 3rd November 2007, the establishment paid agents in media are now the most vocal of restoration judiciary. There is no question that all the reasons that were applicable on 9th of March 2007 are still applicable , it was not Musharraf who had any issues with CJ IMC on 9th of March 2007 , nor it was Asif Zardari who had NRO problem on 9th of March 2007 , it was Pakistan Army who had issues with CJ IMC , it was the military mafia who had problems with the brave judge. The military mafia is still there , they are as corrupt and tyrant as they were then. The military mafia is not changed , good news however is that CJ IMC has not changed either.
