What is this bit about treason? What is more treasonous than siphoning away millions and billions away from a nangi, bhooki, deprived, starving, illiterate awaam of Pakistan to fatten up ones foreign bank accounts?? Who is more guilty of this ultimate treason? Why is disregard for a bloody paper worth more than the crimes of those who have taken this miserable and unfortunate nation of ours to starvation and bankruptcy?
I am not sure where the priorities of our intelligentsia are who are nowadays going totally bonkers over this constitutional treason issue. What will it do to the common man on the street? I would buy this argument if other more important things were also getting the same attention and support.
Ours is a nation of opportunist. All those who are railing on Musharraf are guilty of crimes which are much more perverse and damaging to the nation than Musharraf's disregard for a piece of paper which has been written, re-written, abrogated, held in abeyance and then restored (multiple times mind you).
There is a stench of provincialism in this whole affair and its all about revenge now. Had this been about justice, the face of it would be very difficult as justice bridges the rifts, not exacerbate them as this whole treason tamasha is bound to.
