Dear Join PakistanLETTER TO EDITOR (I dare them to print it)October 4th, 2010Musharraf BashingMusharraf bashing has suddenly acquired a renewed hype in the media -more in the electronic than the print – ever since he announced entering into Pakistan politics. The interested parties and their cronies are busy day and night in slinging mud upon him and his 'dictatorial' rule of nine years. Use of negative superlatives like "not at all", "nothing what so ever", "ruination of the entire economy" etc. are being used profusely, incorrectly and illogically more because of a fad than fact.. Ironically, some of the saner element, intellectuals and knowledgeable too have succumbed to the propaganda and lost sight of the realilty.No doubt Musharraf made mistakes – some blunders, but to say that nothing at all positive for Pakistan was achieved by him and his regime, is unfair.Following are, therefore, just to recount some of his achievements:-(List is a little long but please DO read if you have the heart to know real facts and are blessed with a fair conscience)

Kindly note it is not an effort to promote Musharraf for a come back. It is just to call a spade a spade. He MUST not come back, especially if he has to keep the company of ANY politicians (ANY politician). A pure and simple Presidential form of government would suit him if he can manage one some how. Neither is he (or any soldier) suited to this kind of mockery of a democracy nor is such a democracy suited to this country. The system must change and not, as they say, the faces only.Col.
