Do not compare Pakistan with Iran or Egypt. Pakistan has democratic dispensation. When ever these parties run for elections they never win. The only time they have been in power is when they allied themselves with dictator. The is no volcanic eruptions. "Experts" like Mr Rashid said that if...
When has Rashid not predicted doom of Pakistan. I pay no head to what this man says anymore. He was the one that was predicting the Pakistani army will fail in operations in swat and other tribal areas. He analysis is for not.
There is no need for a revolution in Pakistan. What we need is more accountability. This has begun to happen. We need time to let the internal checks and balances that are part of the system find there feet understand their boundaries and start working.

this was the same guy that wrote the idiotic book "liberal fascism". In his book he asserted that all fascist movements come from the left. He also fails to mention that there were a number of protest that happened after the killing that condemned this act.
Plus this guy writes for the...
Although your concern for Pakistan is admirable. I don't share you pessimism. remember all JUI(F) leaders on T.V condemned the killing. Not with as much vigor but still they have condemned it. Even the former head of JI Qazi has condemned the killing. In all the tv program i have seen there has...
