PAKISTAN!  MORE TROUBLE AND WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

After talking with a few friends this week, I’m going to try a different approach for the month of September.

If anyone hasn't noticed, I usually pose multiple questions during a typical posting.

This month, I've decided to stick to one theme question and then challenge readers to seek what they believe to be possible answer or is often the case with world events, options for answers.

Pakistan’s new troubles:

Last week, I commented on the two groups that had decided to move on the government of Pakistan at the same time.

I spoke to the character of both Imran Khan and Tahirul Qadri with Qadri being the more “interesting” figure.

Well, as predictable as it was, it seems violence broke out in the middle of the so called “peaceful demonstrations”.

As news spread the Army was being called into action, first as mediators, then to keep the protest violence in check, the obvious question came to the surface.

Was the Army quietly supporting the protest?

The betting money is yes!

Protesters take over a major news network and then the Army moves in, but no heads are cracked.

No rubber bullets are fired at the station.

The protesters simply left?

Sound suspicious?

In the world of Police work, that is called, “ A Clue”!
Is it beyond the Army’s capability to create such a movement in Pakistan?

Remember….it is Pakistan.

Also remember, it’s the current Pakistan government that wants the Hero of the Pakistani Military, Pervez Musharraf, in jail for life.

So, just off camera; off in the shadows, who is watching, waiting?

How did the turmoil of Egypt, Syria, Libya, Tunisia start an who was able to turn it into something none of the protesters agreed upon?

Radical Islamic groups own large sections of  the countryside in Pakistan.

What does this turmoil mean to them?

How can the exploit the growing crisis?

Pakistan’s new crisis….. What does it mean to us?
