[QUOTE]Originally posted by Orion Syndicate: [QB] This is my first post on the coup in Pakistan, so here goes. I'm worried! I wouldn't be as worried if a General like General Zia (the guy who took over Pakistan about 20 years ago)had taken over this time aswell. This is because General Zia was a politician as well as a military leader, so he could be trusted more. Before the coup, I hadn't heard of General Musharraf, but after seeing his speech, it is clear that he is no politician, but a General who took over the country because he was pissed off at being ordered to pull out of Kashmir and give up the land that he had gained, and then sacked. This man is obviously a patriot, but does not have what it takes to run a country effectively. What happens when there's internal troubles? You look for ways to divert attention as we have seen many times from other countries. This would inevitably involve India and the Kashmir conflict, and could lead to another war. I have family in both India and Pakistan, so this could have tragic consequences for all, not just me. I can just hope that the deterrant factor remains strong in the minds of the leaders because now we have a Right wing government in India and a military leadership in Pakistan. The deterrant is the main hope that we have. [/QB][/QUOTE]
