Those, elevated to the throne of the state under the NRO deal, had repaid Musharraf by sending him off with guard of honor after his nine years dictatorial rule in the uniform. After a five-year self imposed exile he returned, most probably with another NRO deal brokered with the good offices of some Arab Shieoukhs under the patronage of the White House and the Pentagon.

Musharraf was under the misconception to be warmly welcomed by his countrymen who were facing extreme frustration and despair at the hands of Zardari and company’s misrule during their five years term in power.

He was wrong in his judgment and fell in the net he had woven for himself by committing a number of crimes during his dictatorial rule. Presently his three crimes are under adjudication including the assassination of BB, the most important national and international level politician. The other important case is the Judges case under trial. The mind of the common citizen is stuck as to why he is not tried for the treason he committed on the 12th of October 1999. There is no mention of that serious crime from any quarter, probably because the Judiciary of the time had validated the criminal act of Musharraf under the law of necessity. The Chief Justice of the time Honorable Mr.
Justice Saeeduz Zaman Siddiqui was in a way house arrested under the guard of an army Colonel deployed at the entrance of his house, as the top Judge was not endorsing any argument based on the necessity of law. Anyhow, the crime of the dictator was validated giving the dictator full powers to do what he liked.

The second assault on the Constitution of the country was the heinous crime of the 3rd November, 2007 when he did it in the capacity of the Army Chief, being under the oath to be loyal to the Constitution. As such he is liable to be proceeded against under Article 6 of the Constitution in both the above cases. The shameful act of the 3rd November was fully supported and backed by America as Musharraf was thought to be the last man in the ranks who was fully following the dictates of America and who was to be succeeded by none of the same servility in the hierarchy.

There are few indications whether he would be charged for other serious crimes, abusing the very spirit of Islam and the ideology of Pakistan. Cutting at the very roots of the ideological edifice of the country and declaring Ataturk as his ideal, Musharraf had undoubtedly sent across a message of his mindset to be a man to have complete apathy for the Islamic values and the Islamic status of the country. The Turkish leader had been censured for his anti-Islamic concepts and acts by Allama Iqbal in his poetry labeling him a man who collaborated the enemies of Islam in the dismantling the Institution of Khilafa. The dictator Musharraf had disclosed his mindset on the first day when he declared Kamal Ataturk as his ideal. He put his concept before the nation by displaying two pet dogs in his arms, telling the nation what type of man he was.

He introduced the nude culture of mixed Marathon races with full vigor in order to appease his Western masters. In the name of freedom of media he opened the way for the secularist intellectuals, anchor persons and the liberals to spit out their venom against the country’s ideology and the value structure of Islam. He fixed a quota of 33 % for women in the parliament simply to show to the West that he was going to adopt all measures against the sanctity of women in the name of progress, development and enlightened moderation. Women have not been given that much representation in the Parliaments of Europe and America despite their philosophy of gender equality and the so-called WID activism.

Women were given the opportunity to get into the government and semi government offices to fully popularize the curse of woman lib, a popular agenda of the west to pave way for molesting the sanctity of womanhood.
Zubeda Jalal was entrusted with the task of replacing the Islamic subjects in the curricula for trash to deprave the tender mind of the youth. We had achieved Pakistan on the basis of Islam and had separated ourselves from the Hindu on the same philosophy. Musharraf did adopt all measures to obliterate the genuine concept of the genesis of the country thereby cutting at the very roots of the ideological country.

Imran Khan has termed the NRO as the biggest crime of Musharraf. He is correct in the sense that NRO being an illegal act became more deplorable when external intervention was allowed in the brokering of the deal. It was a criminal deal even if done internally but its injurious affects increased manifold when it was done in participation of external elements and most probably on their behest. The unfortunate thing is that country like Qatar, which otherwise has no status except being a stooge of the US, is also a party to the deal.

Imran Khan has probably termed it as the biggest crime on this account.
Further misfortune of the nation is that Musharraf surrendered at one telephone call at the time when the conglomerate of the MMA was also a part of the government in Islamabad. They did nothing and even did not have the decency of character to come out of the government in protest. The so-called enlightened moderation so firmly exhibited by Musharraf in all fields was a mean attempt to please the Jewish and the Christian lobbies in the corridor of power in the Western capitals.

The so-called liberal and enlightened electronic media is so liberally displaying the rhetoric of people like Altaf Hussain who is advising people to vote for liberalism, nudity and secularism, obviously an antagonistic preaching against the sole ideology of the country. The electronic media never gives that much importance to the statements in favor of the Islamic identity of Pakistan.
Today it becomes impossible for a modest family to watch the TV screen because of its being fully loaded with the hedonistic, libertine material. All this filth now in this abundance is the result of the policies of Musharraf who worked full 9 years to achieve what he wanted to do Musharaf could broker a bargain with the US when he was surrendering to the telephonic call for becoming ally in the war of terror. He could by time on the plea of consulting his aides and advisors on the matter and chalk out a policy line in that respect. He could also keep the things off for a reasonable period of time on the excuse of consulting the neighboring countries like Russia, China, India and Iran as entering into the region with the complicity of the Pakistani leadership was a matter of great concern for the regional countries.

Musharraf was unable to cash the event and he made his own conclusions for the justification of his cooperation in attacking a sovereign Muslim country in the name of war on terror. Musharraf used to narrate three big advantages of the joining American aggression against a Muslim Emirate of Afghanistan.
According to his logic the economy of the country would boost up. He believed in American aid rather than having belief in the Almighty Allah. His second argument was that henceforth the atomic installations of the country will get more secured and the Kashmir issue will be resolved.

One wonders as to what was the basis on which Musharraf was falling in this euphoria. He counted all these gains in the Ulema convention which he had convened in the name of consultation after he had committed all these things to America.

It was a consultation after the decision had already been done by the single person alone. Some of the learned intellectuals and ulema, in the same meeting had warned Musharraf of the dire consequences what wrong direction he had adopted. Now after 12 years participation in the so-called war on terror Pakistan is harvesting the fruit of the wrong policies adopted by the dictator to the detriment of the nation.

These misfortunes are now so visible and practically proved to have occurred and documented in writing and spoken about unequivocally. Of late a book in the name of ‘Yeh Khamooshi Kahan Thak?’ authored by Lt. General ® Shahid Aziz is a cardinal document which uncovers the wrongs of Musharaf and his detrimental policies which have done a havoc to the solidarity of Pakistan and the interest of its people. It is a worth reading book on this subject and gives you full account of the events which make Musharraf directly responsible for all that harm done to the country. Some sentences from the book on page 276 read as ………” Everything was wronged. Hands were joined with America in the cover of non-alignment to collaborate in the assassination of the Muslims.

With a promise to introduce a new system of governance, the dictator became president of the country for five years as a result of the sham referendum. A government of the most corrupt and inept politicians was established with the assistance of the armed forces. Hands were washed off the Kashmir claim under the American pressure.

Baluchistan was alighted with the fire of separatism. The national thinking was rendered into a marketable commodity through the commercial TVs, opened for the purpose. Giving the call of ‘Sab se pehle Pakistan’ was rhetoric of hypocrisy and the religion (Deen) was hued with the sloganeering of enlightenment and moderation thus leaving behind the Deen-e-Akbari and installing the Deen-e-Pervezi on the holy soil of Pakistan which had come into being in the name of Islam.

After these national crimes we confronted a variety of retributions of Allah in the shape of earthquake, devastating floods, target killing, killing on the basis of sectarianism, ethnic feuds, flood of bloody terrorist attacks and killing at the hands of alien secret agents, who are here to unleash internal fighting in one shape or the other. We have dug out the roots of the Islamic country and tried to erect it on the foundation of secularism and liberalism, which will never sustain it as both are not compatible in any degree.

The most unfortunate thing is that during all these years of Musharaf rule the Ulema not only remained silent spectators to all these anti-Islamic measures but played with him the game of pseudo-election and power politics.
The drone attacks started during this period and continued through the five years of the so-called democratic rule of the 4-party alliance, accomplice in the crime. These political parties who have misruled this country are responsible for the whole menace the country is confronted with. They cannot exonerate themselves from the charges of being silent accomplice in the crime of American drones attack killing thousands of innocent tribal Pakistani Muslims.

There was a good chance for the MMA to unite again but they missed the bus obviously due to the egoistic element so firmly personalized by each of the constituent parties. These so-called Ulema are responsible for the grave situation. Being in this huge number they could not do anything for the betterment of Islam and the country. Chaudhri Shujaat who was the man to support the dictator, agreed to the NRO, except the clause permitting an individual to go for the post of premiership for the third time. It means that the Chaudhri did everything in personal interest. Musharraf, having done all these sins on his own free well must be held responsible for all the consequences.

There is the report of the Lal Masjid Commission which has fixed the responsibility of the carnage of the inmates on Musharraf, Shaukat Aziz and their cabinet.

Scores of innocent students were killed which could be avoided had patience been exercised. The record of the events shows that the issue was resoluble through negotiations but for the egoism of Musharraf.

As noted in the General Shahid Aziz’s book, Musharraf, in all important cases, used to take decision exclusively himself and would call for consultation with his colleagues just for public consumption. He was arrogant to accept any suggestion from any of his team members.

He had a complete servility for the American dictates and would go to any extent in order to please his Washington bosses. He was making the American believe that the terrorists had reached Islamabad and had occupied the mosque (Lal Masjid) and if they once got control on the government in Islamabad, the whole game of America in the region will come to an end.

This is how the dictator played havoc with the interest of the country and risked the whole nation at the altar of the American adventurism of playing with the blood of the Muslims of the region. It is now time for the quarters concerned to make an unbiased decision that Musharraf is not only a criminal of the cases subjudice in the court of law but he is responsible for all the ills inflicted on the integrity, solidarity and ideology of Pakistan. Justice demands that a list of crimes of the dictator be prepared and he should be tried for all these criminalities giving priority to the most grievous ones to be followed by the rest.
