@ To comment on Pakistani politics it is very difficult. Pakistan inherited many problems from the British. Some of the problems are depicted below:
* The major portion of Pakistan(Punjab & NWFP)was annexed to British Raj on that day(1849) after the Second Anglo-Sikh Battle. As such majority of common people remained illiterate and politically less experienced than other parts of India.Soon they became too loyal to British. In 1857 when "Sepoy Mutiny", took place the people did not realised what to do ? They remained loyal to British and hence British Heapplied "Divide and Rule" policy and with the greater support of Phatans and Punjabese crashed the revolt.
* When all the muslims of Indian sub-continents are fighting for the separate homeland under the banner of All India Muslim Leaque, the people of Punjab and Sind are doing Unionist Politics. The people of NWFP are interested in Congress(Khan Abdul Gaffer Khan)and separate "Phuktoon".
* Basically the peoples of Gilgit,Waristan(FATA,)NWFP and Tribal areas are Phathans. Historically they had a ethinic link with greater Afganistan. These areas were intentionally separated from Afgan to make them weaker. On the other hand these people had always a dream either to be independant or merge with Afganistan. This advantage was taken by India but the people of Pakistan remained dumped and silent. I have a doubt if Taleban wins in future than greater part of Pakistan will go in the hands of Taleban. May be Baluchistan, NWFP, Wazristan, Tribal areas of Baristan and Gilgit. It is not that the people of Afganistan will come and annex them but they themselve will join them. And poor Pakistan instead of fighting with India will fight with her own people. By this time the people of Kashmir will have no longer interest in united Pakistan. May be with the influence of Taleban they might get independance. Now once India sees that major portion of Pakistan is gone on Taleban side they might grant independan to Kashmir through referrendum. At that time peopleof Kashmir may not vote for Pakistan.
* Now this reminds me an inccident. Probably it was in the year October 1947/1948. The inccident took place at Dhaka. The Rani of Tripura State(Princely State)suddendly and hurriedly came to East Bengal(later East Pakistan) and mate Chief Minister Khaja Wasiuddin for her intention to join Pakistan. I think it was the only case where the Hindu Rani has voluntarily came and asked to join Pakistan. It may be mentioned here that at that time it was more than 500 hundred Princely States in the Indian Sub-Continent who were offered either to join Pakistan or India or remain independant. CM Khaja Wasiuddin immediately gave a telegram to Jinnah about her intention. But with no reply. When contacted in telephone, it was informed that Jinnah is too busy in Kashmir affair. Rani repeatedly agued that she cannot stay too long in Dhaka. After 15 days a return message came Jinnah cannot come to Dhaka and mate Rani. He is too busy in making revolt in Kashmir with the help of Tribal people. And more so Pakistan cannot annoy India in two fronts. Once this was informed to Rani she still waited with a hope that the Jinnah will soom come and mate him. At last she went to Tripura in empty hand. Within next 6 to 8 months India attacked and annexed Tripurra silently and the only Two Battalion of 20 Division of Great Pakistan Army remained "Stand Fast" and General Ayub the then GOC of Eastern Wing "marmaring" in his big heart, the Great Saying, "Larke Lange Pakistan". Jinnah could not recover in Kashmir and the people of Pakistan still hanting for that without any fruitful result.
* In the true sense, neither the Pakistani Political ellite nor the Army ellite had a wide vision about the future of Pakistan. In 1948, once Jinnah visited Dhaka he at once announced, "Urdu and Urdu will be state langause of Pakistan" without realising its political implication. Jinnah's dream never realised rather soon it ignited the fire and East Pakistan was separated through a bloodly war and became independant Bangladesh.
@ In 1958, there was no need of declaring Marshal Law by Iskander Mirza. In 1955, Pakistan has just completed her constitution and it was widely accepted in both wings of Pakistan.Well there might be some political instability but in the process it would have been alright but great generals did not liked it and hence as a true patriot(khota)something has to be done, my foot.
@ Even though once ML was declared with a good intention but soon General Ayub overthrow Iskander Mirza and took power himself and became a President. I think, Iskander Mirza could have been far better than General Ayub. He was in the British army for short period(6 years) then he was selected for Civil service and was in NWFP, Waziristan , Noshera, Bannu and also as a Governor of East Pakistan. He was the first muslim Joint Defence Secretary during the last days of United India. However, General Ayub also did good for the people of Pakistan but in a brute way which has short lasting or in other words tempory measures. Once he went his system also went along with him and we people of Pakistan were in thick soup. Now the burden again comes to new generation of Pakistan. Infact those who fought for united Pakistan by this time either isolated in the society or died or the leadership was not in their hand. This has also had a valid reason. Most of the Muslim Leaque top leaders basically came from India and hence they did not had any people base(constituency). So they were relactant to give free election. Leaders like Jinnah, Liakat Ali Khan, Surwardy, Khaja washiuddin and many others.
@ Again in 1969 once Ayub handover power to Yahya he is another dumped General having no idea about politics. Actually in the true sence he forcely adicated Ayub and took power. So he was also not interested in Convention Muslim Leaque since it was created by Ayub. He was warried if at all This ML comes to power he had it. So he conningly convicated all the central funds of Convention Muslim Leaque. He also made an arrangement that all fraction of Muslim Leaque to remain undivided and hence pave the way for the PPP and Awame Leaque to win without realising its implication. It was just the simple equation. Muslim Leaque was isolated from East Pakistan back in 1954 though once Ayub came he re-habiliated them in a different name. The condition of Muslim Leaque was also not good in other provinces of West Pakistan. So the blunder was made by Yahya himself in order to save his skin. On the other hand Bhutto the new generation politician could not hold his horse so it was inevitable....Now whom to blame the "chirya" is out of cage now.
@ The last point about General Musharraf. What was the need for Musharraf to overthrow Newaz sharif from power. He was running the country well. So what Musharraf was sacked it hardly matters for the greater people of Pakistan.
Take it easy my dear friends of Pakistan. "Jeo Pakistan".
