IANAL, IJLS: “Once again probability proves itself willing to sneak into the back alley and service Drama as would a copper piece harlot.”
I have GOT to remember that for the next time something breaks the odds in real life. Something with a 10% chance of happening is really unlikely something with a one in a million chance is a sure thing. Just awesome.
When Musharraf first took over in Pakistan I was pretty pleased with that particular change of government. Pakistan seemed to need a stronger hand than the existing government was able to provide. The problem with dictators though is that once they are in place they very seldom give up power. Given the fact that he already broke a number of promises to step down my opinion of him has gradually declined over the years. It appears that following the latest challenge to his power however, he stepped down as president which was his last piece of power in government. Pakistan is such a large diverse country there are no silver bullets to its problems and this certainly won’t fix everything, but hopefully it is a step in the right direction. Also, hopefully after so many years of working with Pakistan we have developed good working relationships with people and institutions besides Musharraf.
In any case, a nice little independence day present for Pakistan.
