Whole muslim nation is ashamed of what he did in support of NATO.I wonder with what face he wish to come back in politics and power again.He could oppose super power's president wrong call for US support for so called WOT.
Many generations will sufur due to his this coward act .WOT is not war of Pakistan which is majority public opinion in pakistan.
Hon Sir,
Rightly or wrongly, only way one can tell what a nation thinks is by votes. Here is the position of actual votes cast in Feb 2008 elections. A summary is as under:
PML (Q) 7,989 817 23.0% 42 seats
MQM 2,507,813 7.4% 19 seats
PML (F) 341,440 0.9% 4 seats
PPP (Sherpao) 140,707 0.4% 1 seat
Total Musharraf supporters 10,979,777 or 31.67% votes
PML (N) 6,781,445 19.6% 71 seats
ANP 700, 479 2.02% 10 seats
MMA 772, 798 2.2% 6 seats
Total anti Musharraf parties 8,254,722 or 33.47% votes
PPP 10,606,486 30.6% 97 seats
Total votes cast 34,665,978
It was reported that BBB had hinted that if PPP came to power, she would allow hot pursuit of the jihadis. Associated Press on 11th July 2007 reported in the aftermath of the Lal Masjid affair that BB said I am glad there was no deal with the militants. PPP got 10.6-million votes. Thus it is safe to assume the 62% of the voters agreed with the policy of supporting NATO. Therefore, saying that whole nation is ashamed for what Musharraf did for NATO is a highly opinionated statement with a strong self righteous attitude. This is certainly not borne out by the way people voted.
Only the very naïve or wily politicians would make such sweeping statements.
