For the 1st time I am getting inclined to think that a military dictatorship is probably a better idea in Pakistan..

Parliament? The one that's full of dual national corrupt thieves with houses in Europe and America?

It is, there's no question about it. Economic growth increased with every coup in Pakistan.

You want to dissolve an elected government .... for a terrorist attack rather you should ask why the mighty army and ISI is failing day in and day out....

Even after 26/11 mumbai terrorist attack, Most Indians targeted Indian intelligence agencies and not elected government...
