Return of Musharraf

摘要

If not you at least I find it perplexing to fathom out any reason for the return of Musharraf at this juncture of our political commotion. No sane person in his proper senses would return from the safe havens of Dubai and London to face three murder trials - Benazir, Lai Masjid and Akbar Bugti, a number of high treason petitions and violation of article 6 charges, a host of hostile political parties and civil society organizations, an army with a no nonsense and an indifferent attitude and on the top of it all with no political future. Agreed, he is not that brilliant but he is not that stupid also to return to a starving lion's den waiting excitedly for his prey (lion in the literal sense and not the symbolic MLN's NS's lion).
