Pakistani Political Doldrums

With exacerbating political circumstances on the political front, one wonders, why Sharif brothers choose such a bad time for a popular agitation? Yes, yes I know they have had a history of toppling toddling governments before, but considering what’s going on in FATA and Swat where is general political prudence in burning tires and cars? As we all saw Nawaz making rhetoric in Sheikhpura, I wondered why all the promises for electricity and economic prosperity sprouts up when they are canvassing or inciting people to ‘Sarkoon pay nilkaanien’? I know that Zadari is not the man we want as president; he is corrupt, unpopular and lets be honest the guy doesn’t deserve to be a president of some obscured company, let alone a President of a nation! But, having said all that, do we really want yet another coup de tat? followed by a so-called ‘struggle for democracy’? followed by an ass finally becoming the next president of Pakistan? Considering the circumstances, if the Sherifs really did care about Pakistan as they say they do, ‘I am not here for my personal objectives, I am here to save Pakistan' said Nawaz in reverberating voice , then they would look for middle grounds and not ‘the Sarkain’.
