Musharraf and Benazir Act like Leaders
By Naveed Khan
San Jose, CA

Any reconciliation between Benazir and the military dictator Musharraf must be welcomed. Pakistan needs a healing touch. However, I urge upon these two to act like leaders. State your positions and negotiate. Let the nation decide who is acting in the people's interest.
I do not understand why Musharraf is acting like a thief, flying to Dubai to meet with Benazir and then his cronies making emphatic denials. Musharraf, a ruthless dictator, a commando by profession is acting like Ali Baba as head of a gang of forty thieves.
I always had low opinion about Musharraf as a military general and as a dictator, now my opinion about him as a man is even diminished. Why does he need "stealth" approach in dealing with politicians, unless he is planning something sinister against the Pakistani people.
Musharraf! Deal like a dignified person.
