Getting Away With Blood Stained Hands

January 27th, 2012

GUEST BLOG by Nadeem Arif Najmi The ‘memogate ‘drama that threatened to force out President Zardari just a few days ago, now appears to be a damp squib.

Standing With The Supreme Court

January 14th, 2012

Amidst the rumours of army coups and the much talked about civil-military divide, the Supreme Court’s NRO verdict on 12 January has somewhat been lost in all the chaos, claims and counter-claims.  In my opinion the Supreme Court has issued a brave and balanced judgement against the corrupt (morally and financially) government of Zardari-Gilani. A five member bench [...]

The Treasonous Memo

December 24th, 2011

A public execution and nothing less will be right for the architects of the treasonous memo. The Supreme Court has rightly been moved to investigate the memo as petitioned by former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, with Husain Haqqani and his much maligned boss, President Zardari in the dock for allegedly authoring the treasonous memo as [...]
