ISLAMABAD: Pakistan’s prime minister telephoned the top British diplomat in the country this week expressing fears that the Pakistani army might be about to stage a coup, a British official and an official in Islamabad said Friday.

The call, which one official said was “panicky”, suggests there was – or perhaps still is – a genuine fear at the highest level of the Pakistani government that army might carry out a coup or support possible moves by the Supreme Court to topple the civilian leadership.

Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani asked High Commissioner Adam Thomson for Britain to support his embattled government, according to the officials, who didn’t give their names because of the sensitivity of the issue. It’s unclear if the British government took any action.

Such is the weakness of state institutions, Pakistani leaders have often looked to foreign powers, especially the United States and Gulf countries, to intervene in domestic affairs, mediate disputes between feuding power centers or “guarantee” agreements between them.

I know that China will not trust this govt, the chinese have tried a lot to invest in Pakistan and somehow give support to our economy. But this govt is the most corrupt govt in the history of Pakistan...

Now one cannot object if the military takes over... And if they do, there should be no negotiation. Hand them all to death, so that they be an example to others...

we all lack as , a nation, & our armed forces also lacks that, what had happened to mr putin?

Now this is really fishy. The Army, Judiciary, Opposition, even the outsiders seem hell bent on chucking this government. This kind of a scenario really brings a bad name to the will of the people who elected them and democracy as a whole. Destabilizing Pakistan is the most perverted kind of dirty game being played on the institutions of Pakistan.

My sincere hope empathizing with those interested in institution building is that all the concerned players except for the Judiciary back off, let the Supreme Court take its course, and let the Opposition force the Government to abide by the judgement of the Supreme Court whatever it maybe. The Army and Foreigners should be strictly off-limits to this state of chaos.

This govt cannot implement even a simple order, changing the entire system is completely impossible for this govt....

These people were elected by 50% fraud votes and the backing of USA, as reported by Condaliza Rice in her book.
They don't represent the people, they represent slavery to Greed and America.
