Zardari or No Zardari, All We need is Stability
By Mohsin Sehgal • Jan 1st, 2010 • Category: Politics • 4 CommentsAsk from any person on the street, and you will get the same answer. Jobians, workers, employers, shopkeepers, policemen, men, women, and even students would show their anxiety over the state affairs. They really don’t give a flying fcku to the media uproar, NRO, and who the bloody hell is actually ruling the country. All they want stability and certainty.
People of this country are fedup of politicians, generals, media, judiciary and bureacracy. They hate and ahbor every one of them. All these so-called pillars of state have filled in their pockets and their extravaganza and pompous lives are visible everywhere. The common person of this country wants to get rid of everyone of them. But as he doesn’t enjoy that power, he is indifferent as to who is who and who is doing what and has done what.
The sensationalization streak of media has lost it’s luster and now nobody is actually looking forward to the anchorpersons and “senior analysts” who consider themselves as the movers and shakers of this country. We are not satisfied with the performance of our generals in the battle against terrorism, and we don’t fix any hope with our polity. Judiciary and bureacracy are busy in their own power games.
They all can wallow in the mud as long and as deep as they want, but they should leave us stay put.

Zardari No Zardari, All We need is Stability
it should be go as soon as
but pak will be stabill & serwayeve if zardari sold his property before he leave pak he sold pakistan
Well, I really support writer’s views, what we need is stability and certainty. Mr. Writer is quite right in his approach that that nation needs nothing but stability and peace however it would be quite better If reasons behind unrest, instability and chaos mentioned along with this very wish.
Well I mention, Telltale signs started emerging a long time ago. Initially it was in the shape of the feelers that they started throwing in the name of ‘Minus One’ formula through their trusted media mongers (Dr. Shahid Masood, for one and others). Soon after much fuss made on Kerry-Lugar bill, Govt was cursed irrationally from every quarter. As the taint summed up, another chapter, stigma of NRO attached to Govt, this was how mainlining, mudslinging, propaganda and heinous drives were running parallel.
Govt had already baggage of Musharraf’s crimes, economy was fragile, Pakistan image was fading away day by day in the international community and terrorists were on way to Capital, Balochistan was at the verge of separation.
Govt was well on the way, Extremists forces were forced to retreat, and today they are fleeing in search of safe holing, Govt focused on economy, Govt efficiently worked for Balochistan, Aghaz-e-Haqooq Balochistan package. Govt is no doubt alive and aware to national challenges but is there anyone who advocate to mongers from establishment, media and Judiciary to restrain and allow Govt to work smoothly. It was the Govt of PPP that worked despite austerity drives, leg pulling and media and judicial trials, had there some other party, it would have left country in mess. It sounds good to talk about stability but it is hard to work in such a dirty environment where everyone is struggling to dislodge Govt. Until Govt is allowed to function smoothly, stability and peace is a worldwide goose.
Well all I have to say is that why we went so far to hate musharraff that eventually elected zardari as president. Why NRO didnt came in somebody’s mind when Zardari was ellected by our own representatives. We all knew about his past we all knew about NRO, we all knew what gona happen if we elect a person with such a track record as a powerfull president as a result of 17th ammendment. It happened because he happened to be a widower of a former PM. A continuance of coffin politics which started from the gallows where Bhutto hanged.
Pakistanies spent 63 years in constant dictatorship elected or military. We labelled ‘anarchies’ as ‘movements’,elected dictatorships as democracy,Generals as reformers,patriots as traitors and traitors as patriots. We make our own enemies then moan.
In my opinion in a political system where two families have monopoly over power a ‘waderaism’ even if this waderaism is elected. This is not democracy where people have no choice but to decide what is ‘lesser of two evils’. Democracy can only work if there is party based politics where individuals are merely employees of parties and work their way up in a position that they can be nominated as a PM candidate not by them selves but by party structure.
Couldn’t love this more. We need stability as one nation. That is what we need in our country and free of extremism. No terror no blood shed just a lot of space for liberal values. I hope all of you are with me.
