Oct 12, 1999 BLACK DAY FOR PAKISTAN

WHY?

BECAUSE

This day an elected prime minister Nawaz Sharif putsches against a sitting army chief General Pervez Musharraf in his absence.

Because this was dumb on the part of Sharif, and equally dumb on part of General Ziauddin Butt, who accepted the COAS title

Both ignored the unity with which GHQ moved with a counter-coup to prevent an unceremonious dismissal

DARK DAY because it followed a

DECADE of Convoluted politics of compromise and deception

And followed by

Another decade of self-serving elitist deception under the guise of democratic rule

Result: People of Pakistan continue to suffer cumulative consequences of the elitist capture

Corruption, dysfunctional systems, food shortages, water crisis, deficient healthcare, sloppy development, tardy implementation of projects
