Nawaz at it again....A CORRUPT FAILED POLITICIAN.

NAWAZ SHARIF IS CORRUPT PAKISTANI POLITICIAN WITH ZERO I.Q. BUT HE IS EXTREMELY CUNNING,HE SUPPORTS OSAMA BIN LADEN AND TOOK MILLIONS OF RUPEES FROM TERROR CZAR FOR HIS ELECTION CAMPAIGN.



Not even the gullible was taken in by his democracy and independent judiciary chant, so blemished has been Mian Nawaz Sharif’s track record on both counts. The perceptive observers were at once blunt and unforgiving. Faking and posturing was he, they averred all along. Neither could this conqueror of the Supreme Court of the 1990s be a lover of judiciary nor could this erstwhile ameerul momineen-aspirant be a fan of democracy, they maintained throughout. Autocratic by nature and temperament they said he was. A sultan they said he wanted to be. He was just bidding his time to make a fling and set the ball rolling for a snap poll. And this Saturday he proved them dead right. It was decidedly a stump speech that he delivered to his PML (N) general council at his sprawling Raiwind residential complex. And the cat is also out of the bag. Nothing less than a two-thirds majority he would settle on, as had he in his last stint that saw him giving a no-holds-barred vent to his autocratic propensities and dictatorial impulses. And it is the martyrdom’s apparel that he has chosen to don to fructify his vaulting imperial ambition which knows of no inhibitions or bounds. Deceitfully, all cry was this cloned-baby of garrison hatcheries against praetorian generals, many of them his own benefactors who had bred, groomed and trained him in the arts of Bonapartism and the politics of barracks and had launched him into the field to do their bidding. And comply he did to the last word, spiritedly becoming part of the establishment’ and its agencies’ plots to topple his adversaries’ elected governments and cart out from prestigious positions politicians deemed uncomfortable by the powers-that-be. Musharraf may have done him wrong, although one knows not how much of the litany of charges he read out against him in his address was a lie and how much of it was truth. But probably sensing his tumble in the Supreme Court, he has picked on President Asif Zardari, accusing him of conspiring to oust the two Sharif Brothers from politics and of leaning on the apex court to disqualify them. So a martyr he is out to presents himself to the people. But many may not be unknown to overriding lust for wealth and power of this man who felt no compunction in accepting even Osama’s money to pull down a Benazir government. His prank to team up with lawyers in their long march and sit-in may or may not work to give him what he wants. But a confrontation is sure now to break out ferociously between him and the PPP power centres. Politics of confrontation may be his loved method and the only thing he knows of. And go after this device he surely will with full gusto, caring less of unbearable consequence this politics of confrontation holds in store for this unfortunate nation. But, so far, he has demonstrated he gives a damn if the country is in the lap of a ravaging militancy and extremism, bursting out from its hotbeds of FATA, Swat and parts of NWFP and Balochistan to engulf Punjab and port city of Karachi. He even gives a damn of his confrontationism snowballs the miseries blighting the huge mass of this country’s poverty-ridden, deprivation-stricken and disease-plagued citizenry. Power he wants, at any rate and at any cost. In the opposition’s wilderness, he has lived now for more than a year after the ouster of the military dictator’s rabble in a fairly honest poll. This period is too long for a power-hungry politico that he in reality is. He has been hungering for the power plum impatiently; and his patience has now run out. Still, we hope sanity will prevail on him, as also on the PPP lot. They, too, are jumping in the ring, with gloves off and fists clenched. A political turmoil is the last thing that this unfortunate can afford at this critical time, besieged as it is with multiple colossal challenges internally and externally. As we have been pleading on this page, both the PML (N) and the PPP must declare a truce, call back their boxers, and desist from disturbing the existing power dispensations, particularly in Punjab. And the PPP leadership should think out of sorting out the two Sharif Brothers’ political problems, sitting at the roots of shrilly commotion rising out of the PML (N) camp to make for a durable ceasefire.
