The evil that is Benazir Bhutto's husband, Asif Ali Zardari has taken over as the chief of the PPP. He has also posted his son, another Zardari now turned Bhutto, as the token chief.
I had no doubt in my mind that Zardari would take over the party. For him it has like fallen into his lap like a ripe apple from the heavens. This hurts me more than the death of his wife.
Another most troubling thing is the fact that Pakistan's largest party has no structure whatsoever. IT is yet another dynasty where the leadership is decided not based on the capabilities and the right turn but blood relations to the leaders. The shortsightedness of the leaders is very evident. Similarly the selfishness of these people can also not be ignored. Benazir Bhutto new that there was danger to her life but even then she didn't choose to think or devise any democratic method to ascertain her successor.
Actually none of the parties has the right to call themselves democratic parties as there is no democracy in their very core. If Nawaz were to suffer a similar fate i am pretty sure that another idiot from his family will claim to be the successor of his party.
The people of Pakistan who still vote for such parties should rethink and change their mind. How can a party that does not obey the rules and regulations of a democratic system bring in true democracy to this country if it were to win the next elections. So my hopes for the next elections are as hopeless as they could ever be.
In the end nothing has really changed for the people of Pakistan. If anything matters have gotten worse with evil Zardari at the helm of affairs.
I will also like to remember one sane voice in PPP that has been shut down by the dictator and his supporters, Aitizaz Ahsan. He is still under house arrest and not able to communicate with the media. Or is it that the media has been forced to ignore him to take him out of the public limelight. Benazir's assassination has hurt the only true democratic movement in the country - lawyers' struggle movement- very badly. It has taken this struggle out of the public notice and this to the joy of our dictator and his supporters, both domestic and foreign.
I would really like to see Aitizaz Ahsan freed and lead the nation to a true democratic system and out of this dynasty rule.
