		<description>You need credibility specially in politics. Mr Zartdari should not have entered into politics and stayed in the background as a temorary party leader grooming his son to take over at the appropriate time. But no, he could not resist the temptation to come in the front line. This was a mistake because he did not have a clean background and also carried a bag of worms, his companero spread across in several countries, holding more than one residence and equally considered corrupt. Look at his minister of interior, he failed to bring in security asking military to intervene and now calling for muslim clergy to give religous Fatwas agaist the so called Talabans.In my view he should have banned ithe issuance of all religous fatwas in the country and any other activity involed in causing excitements and hatered on the basis of the religon. People in the country have gone bonkers becaus of foreign interventions and weak leadership.Now, mr Zardari has to struggle, stand down ond take the leave of absence  until the allegations agaist him are settled in his favour in a court of law. They could bring in the speaker of the Parliament in his place.</description>

		<description>@Now the majority is feeling some rat smell in this judgment because it is pointing all its fingers to one person called Zardari. 
Posted by Aftab68 

---Zardari has become the punching bag of Pakistan. The same old stinking rhetoric is being used pulling out his old history examples of corruption. For whatever his past, the views he expressed on foreign policy with India [calling terrorists as terrorists, No first Use (NFU) nuclear policy against India similar to what India has Pakistan, calling India NOT a threat to Pakistan, promising India that he will send ISI chief to India after 26/11 for which he had to go back on his promise] are all which are all unprecedented in Pakistan&#039;s history and he deserves credit for that, but he got stick for all these actions. All people see is what he did long time ago and give him no credit for what he did now. I am not well-versed with nitty gritties of Pakistan political system, but Zardari for sure is not the one to ruin the political system.</description>

		<description>In fact all corruption is a result of not allowing the Democracy flourish  in this country. The same Chief Justice who is heading the Supreme Court had given life to Mr. Pervaiz Musharaf in his judgment in 1999. He even went further by declaring in the verdict that this coup is according to the Islamic tenants. Now the majority is feeling some rat smell in this judgment because it is pointing all its fingers to one person called Zardari. I think a very Big Game is being played by the forces who have nothing to do with Democracy. Some Media persons are hand in gloves to upset the whole system. People in Pakistan are waiting for some better sense to prevail other wise we might be heading towards some big disaster. If corruption is the only issue then All Heads are corrupt.</description>

		<description>Why bring in provincialism in this as since the new chief Justice had acquired power he seemed to go after the top level people and he belongs to Baluchistan not to Punjab!!

The real problem was the initial interference by USA and UK that has created this problem.

Well USA and UK the two countries with liar leaders of Iraq and Karzai fame again supported and facilitated this corrupt Government to acquire power to fulfill their agenda.

Now is the time for backfire stage so please keep your hands off as extra-judicial laws to save corrupt politicians in small and poor unfortunate countries were wrongfully applied in 2007 by these two countries through their crony Gen Musharraf. Please stop your imperialist intervention now as this has all backfired again!!

Please keep your hands off as you have already destroyed this region by your many evil and ill-conceived machinations.</description>
