The Plan To Topple Pakistan Army – by Ahmed Quraishi

An ‘eye-opener’ piece about the ‘other side of the looking glass’… Ahmed Quraishi presents yet another persepective to the tall claims by the United States, the media, the mullahs, the so called ‘patriotic writers’ of Pakistan and the unyielding struggle of several factions within Pakistan. A bitter but factual presentation of ‘who is actually pulling who’ in Pakistan. Read the complete article on Ahmed Quraishi’s website at the following link: The Plan To Topple Pakistan Army

Excerpts from the article are as under:

“This is not about Musharraf anymore. This is about clipping the wings of a strong Pakistani military, denying space for China in Pakistan, squashing the ISI, stirring ethnic unrest, and neutralizing Pakistan’s nuclear program. The first shot in this plan was fired in Pakistan’s Balochistan province in 2004. The last bullet will be toppling Musharraf, sidelining the military and installing a pliant government in Islamabad. Musharraf shares the blame for letting things come this far. But he is also punching holes in Washington’s game plan. He needs to be supported.”

“Currently, students are being recruited and organized into a street movement. The work is ongoing and urban Pakistani students are being cultivated, especially using popular Internet Web sites and ‘online hangouts’. The people behind this effort are mostly unknown and faceless, limiting themselves to organizing sporadic, small student gatherings in Lahore and Islamabad, complete with banners, placards and little babies with arm bands for maximum media effect. No major student association has announced yet that it is behind these student protests, which is a very interesting fact glossed over by most journalists covering this story. Only a few students from affluent schools have responded so far and it’s not because the Pakistani government’s countermeasures are effective. They’re not. The reason is that social activism attracts people from affluent backgrounds, closely reflecting a uniquely Pakistani phenomenon where local NGOs are mostly founded and run by rich, westernized Pakistanis. “
