More people on the street and even more getting arrested. Bush said that he had talked to Musharraf and told him to step down and then he continued to praise Musharraf by saying how much he "cared" for his people and was trying his best to restore democracy. USA announced how they thought the state of emergency won't last more than 2 weeks.
That same day 800 more protesters got arrested for "treason" and it was said that the state of emergency would go on for ATLEAST a month.
The sadder thing is that most of the people against Musharraf are supporting Bhutto right now than any other opposition leader.
Imran Khan, who was one helluva of a cricketer, never managed to strike it big in politics probably because its hard for people to take a celebrity that seriously. But I think right now he's the only one making some good enough points. From hiding, he gave an interview to BBC asking why other opposition leaders were being arrested and running for their lives while Bhutto could run around openly giving press conferences. Didn't Bhutto return to Pakistan by agreeing to a power-sharing deal with Musharraf? What happened to all those corruption charges against her that forced Nawaz Sharriff to be kicked out of Pakistan? Also never in any of her speeches "against" Musharraf had she mentioned that the judiciary had to be restored.
He went on to say that what was happening in Pakistan was the same thing that was happening in Burma and the USA was acting similar to how they acted in Burma.
If Musharraf gets kicked out and Bhutto comes in, it wouldn't be much of a difference. Yet people for some reason run out onto the street ready to die for her every whim and she's not afraid to make them. Almost anyone with enough education can realize that her and Musharraf are working together to play with the public just how her and Nawaz Sharriff did in the past.
According to Musharraf elections will be held in mid-February giving him ample time to completely finish of the judiciary and replace it with his own minions, get them to agree that its alright for him to remain President and army cheif and that the elections he rigged to win are valid and he will receive a five year term.
USA will praise him for restoring democracy and Pakistan will be back where it was last year. All politicians will rejoice at the restoration of corruption and continue to eat away at the foundation of Pakistan, which was never that strong to start with.
On the "brighter" side of things, Musharraf will be kicked out and Bhutto will win the elections. She will declare that she is taking over from Musharraf at being USA's personal 24/7 bitch while in the background Musharraf will also be working with her.
USA will praise her for restoring democracy and Pakistan will be back where it was last year. All politicians will rejoice at the restoration of corruption and continue to eat away at the foundation of Pakistan, which was never that strong to start with.
In other happier news, Pakistan WON against India in one of the greatest cricket matches of all time. WOOHOO. Incase you are wondering how much longer I intend to have all my posts be so political instead of returning to the mindless drivel I used to have before then the answer is I don't know. When something worth blogging about happens, I'll do it.
