.....But General's Men Killed
Benazir Bhutto

In
banana republic of Pakistan, some idiot like Brigadier Javed
Iqbal Cheema, concocted story after story about Benazir Bhutto’s
assassination. He many times changed positions, before someone
from Interior Ministry stood up and apologized for
misrepresentation of facts by this stupid retired brigadier.
After half cooked press
conferences of Brigadier Javed Iqbal Cheema, generalissimo
himself appeared on the national television and delivered a
tirade about BB’s assassination, riots after the assassination,
and his government’s resolve to continue war against terrorism.
Generalissimo, as usual, spoke
lies through his teeth without blinking his eyes. He informed
the nation, Baitul Mehsud and Fazlullah attacked and killed
security men in Kohat, in Sargodha, in Mangla and civilians in
Charssada. He said they were the one who were also responsible
for BB’s assassination.
Of course, Baitul Mehsud and
Fazlullah killed security men in Kohat, in Sargodha, in Mangla
and civilians in Charssada, but general’s men killed Benazir
Bhutto. Baitul Mehsud and Fazlullah had nothing to do with
Benazir Bhutto, general Musharraf had to do everything with her.
She was a threat to general Musharraf’s rule not to Baitul
Mehsud or Fazlullah.
Baitul Mehsud and Fazlullah did
not change their stories. They denied once, they had a hand in
BB’s assassination and they stuck with their story. General’s
spokespersons changed their stories at least four different
ways. Obviously, these were general Musharraf’s men who were
lying about BB’s assassination not Baitul Mehsud or Fazlullah.
If generalissimo did not have
hand in BB’s assassination why his men hurriedly cleaned the
crime scene? Investigators all over the world cordon crime
scenes until they finish collecting all evidence. What was the
rush to clean this crime scene where Pakistan’s most important
political leader was murdered? Obviously, the idea was to clean
up the crime scene as soon as possible so that no evidence was
left on the scene.
Then, cover-up was not limited
to the concoction of stories and clean-up of the crime scene.
Medical staff was also forced to change its statements. One day
they gave one statement, the other day another statement, and
then again they repeated their first position. While going back
and forth on their positions, they admitted there was tremendous
pressure on them to conceal the true nature of the injuries
found on BB’s dead body.
While shifting BB’s
assassination’s blame to Baitul Mehsud and Fazlullah,
generalissimo appealed to media to run campaign against them.
Generalissimo does not know
Pakistani nation and international community is catching up with
his lies.
This morning a common American
lady was talking to a talk show program host how general’s men
killed Benazir Bhutto and how he was trying to confuse the
public on this issue. She even clearly saw generalissimo’s hand
in riots after BB’s assassination. She questioned general’s
delayed response to riots after the assassination. She related
this delay with postponement and possible cancellation of
elections.
The fact of the matter is
general’s game is over. If an American lady, sitting 15 thousand
miles away from Pakistan, can see through general’s lies,
Pakistanis are not that stupid; they also know what
generalissimo of banana republic of Pakistan is up to.
In the interest of Pakistan,
instead of lingering the thread of his crimes, general Musharraf
should resign and let the people of Pakistan set the course of
events in their country.
Soldier’s Year By All
Means
General Pervez Kiyani has
announced to celebrate 2008 as a soldier’s year. It is indeed a
good idea. For last 8 years, Pakistani soldiers have taken a lot
of heat for general Musharraf’s crimes. It is about time, their
new chief has intended to remove some of this heat by declaring
2008 as their year. Pakistani soldiers do need a moral boost.
There cannot be a better way to boost their moral than declaring
2008 as their year.
While general Kiyani is
celebrating 2008 as a year of soldiers, he should also think
about his downtrodden nation. His predecessor, general
Musharraf, who is still hiding in army house like a rat, has
committed lot of crimes against the people, the state
institutions and the state of Pakistan.
Other then himself, general
Musharraf has also involved many retired and serving officers in
civilian institutions who are breeding nothing but constant
hatred against the armed forces of Pakistan just by being
present in those civilian institutions.
If general Kiyani is sincere in
his professional cause and he really wants to make 2008 year of
the soldiers he should bring these outlaw men in uniform under
discipline.
Without folding general
Musharraf’s criminal network, general Kiyani’s efforts to boost
soldier’s moral are bound to fail. How soldiers can feel good if
their nation is aggrieved? How they can be pain free if their
nation is wounded?
Only a happy nation’s soldiers
can be proud of themselves. And feel good about them.
