Musharraf imposes Emergency in Pakistan


ISLAMABAD: Pakistan's beleaguered President Pervez Musharraf on Saturday night imposed a state of emergency in the wake of a rapid deterioration in the security situation and growing uncertainty over his position in the face of a legal challenge to his re-election in uniform.

An eight-member Supreme Court immediately set aside the Presidential order declaring Emergency amid reports that Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, who has been at loggerheads with Musharraf, has been asked to go.

All land and mobile telephone services were suspended and several private TV channels were taken off air.

After days of speculation about the General resorting to "supra-constitutional measures", the military ruler issued a "provisional constitutional order" imposing emergency rule in the country.

"The chief of army staff (Musharraf) has proclaimed a state of emergency and issued a provisional constitutional order," the state-run Pakistan TV said.

Security forces were deployed in the capital and other parts of the country.

Still better than those pretending to be awake with their eyes shut.

Pakistan is an unstable state where religion fails to unite fighting peoples of different areas UNLIKE Iran which also is a Islamic Republic which,infact is developing(also as a threat to other nations with N_clear thing).
Mushraff is afraid of fundamentalists.It needs someone with a Hitlers mind to suppress with forces those terrorists of afghan border and make the country stable.
But the dictator himself ran into troubles when democracy is pushing him out if elections happen.afterall he cannot be a hitler.

In the present circumstances,U.S.A is not going to burn it hands on Mushraff. since he is the only ally left, for the Bush 's 'fight against terror', and India is not endorsing it Nuclear Deal, for some time it will shut its eyes what happening in PAK, so happy riding for Musraff temporarily..at the cost of PAK's people!!

^^Duh, U dont get it. Its in a different sense , sometimes we also use the word
"state" at international level for "India" also.

[SIZE=-1]A state is a political association with effective dominion over a geographic territory.

One thing that if not for Musharaff's coup, Pakistan would have lost whatever was reminisent of its image, in international arena politcally after the Kargil war and other thing is that there is no one else, to hold a position now.

Bhutto or Sheriff are both corrupt and they deservedly were extradited. Morally, in my opinion, they deserve even severe punishment. Bet they are enjoying their luxurious life in London and Saudi.

Mushi, on the other hand has no other option than to hold on to his position, lest he shall be seen going down to dust.
