Two points caught my attention during General Musharaf’s press conference.
First,
the tracking sweats on his face took me back to the day when he faced
parliamentarians on the only Joint-Session he ever attended three years
ago. If sweating denotes weakness of nerves, he qualified both the
times. After the first incidence, he refused to address them again
accusing the opposing lot as ‘bad-mannered’. Is he going to repeat
his ‘sweat revenge’, this time, from media-men, especially when he
accused a few foreign and local journalists?
Second,
the unbelievable stance he took when he blamed Mr. Ifitkhar Mohammad
Chaudry for taking action against privatization process, as he put it,
‘to gain cheap popularity’. If saving Rs billions of Exchequers in
Steel Mill Case was simply for cheap popularity, I pray to Almighty to
bless this nation with a few more such people who could take similar
actions for cheap popularity.
