Usual double games of the West. In all conflicts of whatever nature -political, cultural, social/economic, social etc- anywhere in the world the West interferes using its stolen wealth (incidentally taken from the ancestors of the same peoples affairs they are interfering in) and side with both/all parties. They do not want one clear winner and one clear loser.Divide and conquer is the game. All done to further Western interests. Of course these days its glossed up under fancy names like "human rights" and "right to protect".Plenty of examples of this, like Iran/Iraq back in the 80s, West funded both sides. Even today they encourage the violence in Iraq -not to long ago MI6 agents were caught by the Iraqi police dressed up as Arabs who went around randomly shooting people this lead to the infamous prison storming event by the British Army- while the oil is slowly pumped away.
West 100% supports Tamil terrorist genocide against Sinhala Buddhists because Tamils are not a threat to West

Sunil, Kandy,

Why is it that we give only a few months to elected governments and decades to military dictatorships? Let the civilian elected government take over, no matter how fractured the democracy. In due course of time it will correct itself. Military adventurism has no place in any country of the world, including Pakistan. The West must stop supporting Musharraf for its own strategic imperatives. It is time they look at moral imperatives as well. Musharraf has become a huge liability for Pakistan and must go asap. The worst type of civilian rule is better than the best type of military government.

If the UK and USA are so enamored by Musharraf they can have him anytime!

Murad Khan, Karachi, Pakistan

It is in no ones interest to see Pakistan fall into the hands of the Islamists. That would lead to war on a huge scale. Osama Bin Laden is at large in Pakistan and as long as Musharaf is against him there is some hope.

Roy Race, Bratislava,

In my view President Muharraf must stay, I do not trust these two leaders they both were in power and brought Pakistan to fail state by corruption and incompetancy.
People of Pakistan will find out soon how bad are these two, Zardari and Nawaz if they were left unchecked. This is one of the reason they want to remove President so they can start building their overseas accounts again. I hope and pray that our media should expose this.

Viqar Haseeb, Oakville, Canada

I think USA as the world super power has the duty to protect Mr Musharaf. If they back out when people have turned against him then no dictator will every take the tough decisions.
Unfortunatly democraceies are very difficult to work with because elected leader are always concerned at the short term well being of their people.

Suresh Kumar, London, UK

Musharraf is finished, I'm surprised the Americans and British have not figured it out yet. Their understanding of Pakistan seems to be only skin deep. To suggest that the Chief Justice should not be restored to office along with the whole of the Supreme Court, just shows how shallow and pathetic US foreign policy has become under Bush.

The law must remain supreme, the Supreme Court must be re-instated.

akram, London,

Democracy and people who are players in this game is a failed show in Pakistan. politicians are corrupt and champions of plundering national wealth. as a matter of fact nobody has ever voiced over money laundering and plundering by general musharraf. he has done much good for his country men. people are high over triumph of the political parties, not aware or either ignoring the fact that these political parties are the ill and dilemma of Pakistan. people have voted for personalities not for policies. its where the problem lies.

Shiraz, Karlskrona, Sweden

Pakistan needs Musharraf he is a benevolent Dictator and has done good for his country. Nawaj Sharif & Zardari are proven corrupt politicians and have vested interest only. Elctions results should be made null & void and under Musharaf there is freedom.

Owais, Peshawar, Pakistan

I would says that worst civilian government is better than military dictatorship.

But when the civilian governments have been allowed to run the affairs. It is the militay who, on one pretext or the other, have grabbed the power. More than half of the life of the country, Pakistan has been under the rule of tin pot dictators who have misused the following words,
solidarity, and
integrity.

How will the solidarity come when military usurps the right of people and impose self-decorated generals and brigadiers in every institution of the country.

The western government will sooner or later realise that Musharraf is a liability. He is a divisive factor and prolonging his stay will threaten the very solidarity and integrity of the country.

The sooner he leaves the better it will be for the country and its institutions which have been paralysed by this commando.

B.A. Solangi, Ilford, UK

No party has a clear majority. Also, main players such as Asif Ali Zardari, Nawaz Sharif and Gen Musharraf do not see eye to eye!

Pakistan and some Islamic extremists have one easy solution: if you can not solve a problem, blame the US, Britain or someone else!

Krishna R. Kumar, Udupi, India

i dont understand those people who support dictatorship by quouting some pathetic incidents from past

Awais, islamabad,

How people forget that it was Nawaz Sharif who whilst in power stormed the supreme court and Zardari, when last Bhutto was in power was accused of nepotism and lining his own pockets. Musharraf must stay in power in oeder to act as a counter balance for these two so called patriots.

Hamad Lone, London, England

I have to say that Pakistanist Parties that won the ellection has the right to change and to reform it own govement, and if some western countries want to disturb this democratic ellection.. this mean that they want pakistan to become degredation country with high chaotics situation........
GO PAKISTAN, DON'T LET THOSE Distubing Countries to make Chaos in your LAND....
