“If you have made mistakes, even serious ones, there is always another chance for you. What we call failure is not the falling down, but the staying down.”

Bloody civilian PM’s

The nation demands from the federal care taker government to explain, why it is spending huge public money, on the protocol and security of a dismissed COAS and a self proclaimed and a usurper person, when recently the CJ SC, denied life time security, to even the elected former (bloody) civilian PM’s?

If you want to communicate that your project’s goals are “right on target,” it’s tempting to present your colleagues with the all-too-familiar image of a bull’s-eye. But nothing gets an audience’s eyes a-glazing like a visual cliché. To make your presentation stand out, throw out the first visual concepts that come to mind. They’re the ones that occur to everyone else, too. Brainstorm several ideas for each concept to work your way toward fresh, surprising imagery. To illustrate a partnership, forgo the image of a handshake in front of a globe. Instead, opt for a picture of a reef ecosystem or a stylish photo of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. If you’re trying to portray the concept of security, avoid the lock and key. Try a Doberman Pinscher or pepper spray. Your audience is far more likely to remember what you have to say if it comes with unexpected images.

“I would like to be remembered as someone who accomplished
useful deeds, and who was a kind and loving person. I would
like to leave the memory of a human being with a correct
attitude and who did her best to help others.”

What is good for the goose is good for the gander

Why the Supreme Court is not reopening the contempt of court proceedings against Musharraf, for violating SC orders, by not allowing Nawaz Sharif to arrive in Islamabad?
if Yousaf Raza Gillani, the elected PM, can be sentenced for the contempt of court, why not Pervaiz Musharraf?

Can Pakistani authorities bring Musharraf to the trial court, with his hands cuffed with the car seats. The way he hand cuffed Nawaz Sharif with the airplane seats?

Can we do it?

Can Pakistani authorities bring Pervaiz Musharraf to the anti-terrorist court, in an iron cage, like they did with Hosni Mubarak, during his recent trial in Egypt, where he was brought to the trial court, in an iron cage and even on a stretcher?

Why Zulfiquar Ali Bhutto, Benazir Bhutto, Nawaz Sharif and Shahbaz Sharif’s houses were never declared sub jail? Why only this privilege accorded to the man, who ridiculed Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan for the pleasure of America and himself admitted allowing America to attack Pakistan and also admitted in his book that he handed over Pakistani kids, ladies and men to USA, in exchange for $?

Today, when Musharraf was arrested by the Police he was not handcuffed.
In Pakistan, we only hand cuff CIVILIAN elected PM’s, chain them with seats in the plane and send them to gallows. In Pakistan we also drag, by holding him from his hairs, the serving Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. Yes, but we have to bow, before a retired general, under all circumstances.
Pakistan Paindabad.

From Cromwell to Hosni Mubarak to Musharraf

Why Musharraf & his supporters are crying over his arrest orders?
He won’t be produced in a cage or stretcher, like they did with Hosni Mubarak in Egypt.
Although, Musharraf’s crimes of treason and arresting serving Chief Justice and so many other judges, demand no leniency, as it was an act of terror and its a fit case to order his trial after putting him in a cage, to make make him an example; like in UK, they hanged the bones of Cromwell at Trafalgar Square, after digging his grave, for his crime of imposing Martial Law in UK.
Resultantly, no one even thought of imposing Martial Law or emergency in UK.
