	New Left Review - Tariq Ali: The Colour Khaki
		On 19 September 2001, General Pervaiz Musharraf went on TV to inform the people of Pakistan that their country would be standing shoulder to shoulder with the United States in its bombardment of Afghanistan.
		Musharrafâs regime, by contrast, won admiring praise from 1999 onwards for sticking to IMF guidelines âdespite the hardships imposed on the public by austerity measuresâ.
		Instead, Musharrafâs new status as the trusted ally of the West was used against the PTO, and its non-violent leaders charged under the new âanti-terroristâ legislationâ”just as the real terrorists, most of whom have, at one time or another, been on the payroll of the military intelligence services, were being released.

	Man in the News: Musharraf Is a Soldier's Soldier, Not a Political General
		Musharraf, 58, on the other hand, had been a military officer for 35 years, and he had spent his career as a field officer -- a soldier's soldier -- rather than in the centers of political power.
		Musharraf, who was decorated for service in the 1965 war with India, is a graduate of the Pakistani Command and Staff College at Quetta and also studied at military institutions in Britain.
		Clearly Musharraf had considerable support if soldiers loyal to him were able to reject Sharif's order of dismissal and move into positions around important government installations in Islamabad before the general had returned to the country from a visit to Sri Lanka.

		Musharraf said he fully realised the fact that development of the country was not possible unless steps were taken for the development of 70 per cent population living in rural areas.

		Many Pakistani politicians believe that President General Pervaiz Musharraf and the army may be on the verge of wrapping up parliament and re-imposing military rule.
		In June Musharraf travels to Washington and London and is likely to ask for an endorsement from President George Bush and Prime Minister Tony Blair to curtail Pakistan's return to democracy, in return for arresting some 450 members of Al'Qaeda, agreeing to talks with India on Kashmir, and supporting US-led military action in Iraq.
		So far, President Musharraf has been silent." Far from criticizing the MMA or reigning in its militants, the military's intelligence agencies have worked overtime to pave the way for their forceful entry into the corridors of power,'' said an editorial in Pakistan's Friday Times, a leading liberal political weekly.

		Clinton agreed to do this favor for Pakistan on one condition: that no joint statement or press briefing with Pakistan's military leader, Pervaiz Musharraf, would take place, for he was seen by the US as a dictator who did not deserve diplomatic approval, but rather a censure for his illegal rule.

		"Musharraf plans to continue his military dictatorship through a manufactured political party in elections next October [that are] almost certain to be fraudulent, shutting out from the contest the legitimate political parties and leaders of Pakistan," says one political leader.

	Strategic Insights -- Pakistan’s Kashmir Policy after the Bush Visit to South Asia
		New Delhi was loathe to permit the Pakistan army to manipulate the risk of nuclear escalation to alter the territorial or political status quo in Kashmir, and thus reacted with unprecedented determination to oust the intruders from the Kargil heights.
		Musharraf’s strategic nightmare scenario is for the United States to support India and Afghanistan in their political hostility and territorial ambitions against Pakistan.
		President Musharraf seems to be genuine in his desire to permanently settle the Kashmir dispute, but he also now has mounting reservations about India’s sincerity and commitment to the peace process.

		Gen Musharraf's bodyguards were recently trained by the US State Department's special protection service and the CIA had provided him with the latest high-tech jamming devices.
		Gen Musharraf has refused to talk to the mainstream non-religious parties, who would be his natural allies in any genuine battle against the Islamic extremists.
		The result is that he is seriously isolated, trusted by none of the political forces in the country - secular or religious - and increasingly disliked by a public frustrated by his fluctuating policies and the lack of economic development and investment.
