Can’t Help Admiring Zardari
No matter how much I hate him, I have to admire the man for his moves, courage and foresight.
First of all, despite the whole world labelling him as a notorious politician, corrupt, murderer and everything else, he never admitted any of those crimes. He went on to stay in prison for eleven years even when he had offers of exile. He kept his cool, stuck in, knowing there was light (and a lot of it) at the end of the tunnel.
He started his new era of politics on the back of Benazir’s death. On the front he continued to boast Nawaz Sharif as his big brother knowing very well that the coalition is temporary and hence preparing the ground for PML-N’s disgrace at the back-end.
A close analysis of the presidential issue shows that at first it was PML-N who wanted Musharraf out of the scene, but the way our dear President bowed out gave most of the credit to PPP rather than PML-N.
While the judiciary issue is the backbone of PML-N’s current success Zardari made numerous promises and then backed out leaving the fool Sharif standing in no man’s land. This has dented PPP’s reputation undoubtedly, but PML-N’s popularity is also hurt by this tactic of Zardari.
This is politics at its best. To dent PML-N further, Zardari created an environment where PML-N is left with no option but to quit themselves, and in case the system is wrapped it, the blame will go squarely on PML-N for destabilising a democratic government.
Zardari, as president, can also reinstate Iftikhar Chaudhry as th CJP because the president has some protections of not facing all those cases of corruption. So President Zardari will have no fear of NRO being revoked by the judiciary. And then he can also take the credit of restoring the judges himself.
He has forced PML-N in a closed chamber having Salman Taseer in Punjab and now having talks with PML-Q for support.
All this is leading to the politics of 90’s, which we all detest. But we have to admire Zardari for excellent political gambits. Despite all such political excellence, I, and most of us, will continue to hate Zardari!
Thats what they’re good at undoubtedly. But then who are the real losers? The people of Pakistan! We’ve been at the mercy of these goons, bent on outwitting each other, and this has got to end otherwise things will just get worse
The people of Pakistan are definitely the losers, but they (majority) have invited this trouble upon themselves. I really can’t comprehend how people backed Zardari and Sharif despite knowing their past. And since we all knew their past, predicting the future was never difficult. So why did the people support them? Can’t the people go on protests asking these goons to leave us forever?
thats coz our nation has a short term memory and we are generous enough to forgive and forget all the major crimes of our politicians.
as for zardari being impressive, well he’s really good at wat he’s doing!
Dude… resist walking over to the dark side!
Waise you’re right. He’s been playing an intricate game that man!
